\ MESSAGE.

How little the left hand lSnoweth
The deeds that are done by the right,
How little the night time showeth
Its sorrowful shades 10 the light,
How few OF the hearts that are brokon
Betray TO the breaker their grief,
How many harsh words that are spolen
Are the crushed souls only relief
Alas for the childlike gladness
We never may know again,
And alas and alas for the sadness
That broods like a spirit Of pain,
Lake some spirit OF pain that viii hover
Still nearer when sunlight is fed.
Until youth, and youths last changoful
hover
Grow old, and grow cold as the dead
1t is strange that the hands that might lead
US
To heaven, refuse us their hold.
That the dear lips that whisper God spae
us"
Are the lips that are the first TO grow cold
eut love- we are nearer the dawning.
just there is the heavenly light
And how little the glorious morning
Knows the sorrowful shades of the night

' The growth of the export of rice from
Japan is one of the features of Asiatic
trade. 1t has increased so rapidly that it
is now one of the three main staples of
the export trade, tea and silk being the
other two. Up to August 81, of 1899,
the export amounted to 10, 600 tons, or
"a 900 tons more than the total export of
the previous year. At the same time the
