Whilo childron sleep
They never drcIm that others work
That they may have their daily bread;
When morning comes they rise and eat,
And never aak now they are fed.
While children sleep
They do not see tie shining siIn--
1ney do not SEQ the gracious dew,
In daily miracle Of love,
Is ever making ali Things new.
Do we not sleep,
And know not that our Father works
With watchlul care about our way7
lie bends in blessing from above
His love broOls Ger us day by day.
Do we not sleep,
And never dream that others work,
Reaping the sheaves that might be ours7
We SEE not now the shadows fall
Which mark the swift departing hours.
All. still we sleep!
Our drowsy eyes see not tue light,
See not the hands stretched out tn bless,
See not that waiting for us stands
Gods kingdom and his righteousness

An entertainment consisting of exhibit
tons on the photograph and the display
of magic lantern views on anvas was
given last night at the West Side Avenue
NJ. E. Church. The Seventh Regiment
Band was heard via the phonograph to
play various airs. and numerous other
Instrumental and vocal selections were
given by the wonderful instrument. The
stereoptican views were of an interesting
character. Mr.. E, N. Southland had charge
of the exhibition.
The entire proceeds were for the bene-
fit of the widow of the late Thomas j.
Farquhar. who was killed on the New
ark and New York Railroad at West Der
gen a month ago. One thousand
one hundred dollars has been
subscribed through the efforts of West
Bergen citizens toward cancelling the
mortgage of S / 1888, which Bergen Land
Improvement and Building and Loan
Association hold on Mrs. Farquhar's
home. The proceeds of last nights en-
tertainment, with the amount already
raised, will be sufficient to give Mrs.
Farquhar her home unencumbered.
