TO ALL Waso CLIMB.

Net only those above US on the height,
With love and praise and reverence greet;
Not only those who walk in paths Of light
With glad untiring feet;
These to- reverence toiling up the slope,
And resting not upon their rugged way,
Who plant their feet on faith and cling to hope
And climb as best they may,
And even these praise. who, being weak,
Were led by folly into deep disgrace;
Now striving on pathway rough and bleak,
To gain higher place.
For wisely have they done, and passing well,
To choose what seemed dim and hopeless way
And upward from the choking depths Of hell
To climb as best they may.
Remorse and burning shame and deep despair,
These re the hell, its demons and its fire;
They vanish when the sufferer lifts In prayer
His purified desire
Then dawns the truth upon him, clear and sweet;
Flames cannot scorch them then, or demons
stay;
All needless OF his bare and bleeding Get,
He climbs as best he may.
Oh! struggling souls, be brave and full of cheer,
Nor let your holy purpose swerve or break;
The way grows smoother and the light more
clear
At every step you take.
10, in the upward path Gods boundless love
Supports you evermore upon your way;
You cannot fail to reach the heights above
Who climb as best you may

1t Is Situated in q Suburb OF Vienna and
Is Occupied by ALA Persons.
Could you, if requested, give the size
and location OF the largest building in
the world1 Ii, trying to answer such
question, would YOU designate the
St. Peters cathedral, the City hall at
Philadelphia, the St. Paul's cathedral
or the Westminster abbey as being
worthy of such a high sounding titlei
Not one person in 100 would 60 out
side the above list to find an answer
for the question. Yet it would be
necessary to do so before correct an
swer could be given. There are many
large buildings both in the United
States and in Europe; many hundred
roomed structures of stone and iron,
glass and brick.
Every American, European and
Oriental country has its scores Of pub
lie and private mansions, yet Vienna,
Austria, has the giant of them all;
The ''Frcihaus" free house,, situated
in Wieden, suburb of the city just
mentioned, is the most spacious build
ing Oh the globe Within its walls a
whole city of human beings live and
work, sleep and eat. 1t contains in
all between 1900 and $500 rooms,
divided into upwards of 400 dwelling
apartments of from four to six rooms
each.
This immense house has thirteen
COMMUNICATIVE open and eight COW
ored.and q largo garden within its
walls. \ visitor to the building re-
lates that he once spent two hours in
looking for man known to reside IN
the house. Scarcely trade, handl,
work or profession can be named
which is not represented in this enor-
nous building. Gold and silver
workers, makers of fancy articles,
lodging house keepers, bookbinders,
agents, turner's, matters, officers, lock-
smiths, joiners, tutors, scientific men,
government clerks, three bakers, eight
cen tailors, twenty-nine shoemakers
and many other tradesmen live in it.
The house has thirty-one staircases,
and fronts on three streets and one
square. In one day the postman's de-
livery has amounted to as many as
900 pieces to this single but titanic
house. To address letter. to tue
house and to the person it is intended
for does not assure the sender that the
nerson to whom it is addressed will
ever receive it. In order to make as
surance doubly sure, all letters adj
dressed to the ''Freihaus" must be pro
yided with both the given and the sur
name of the person for whom intended,
the number of the court, the number
of the staircase and the number OF the
apartment; otherwise it is as apt to go
astray as though addressed to a city
