1T is BETTER TO LIVE.


Ihave sometimes felt thst the burden
OF Life vas too heavy to bear;
And have longed to lie down at the noontidS
And rest and forget all my care;
But over my heart comes a message,
Repeated again and again
1T is better TO live and 20 suffer.
Than to die to be rid OF the pain"
There is rest In the darkness Of dying,
And an end to the weary despair.
The grave holds sure peace and calm silence,
No souow nor pain can be there;
But perhaps, In the struggle Of living,
In a soul that has need of my care
Some heart may be bearing n burden
That my hand may tighten or shAre
Twould be easy to say II am weary"
And lie down and give up the strife,
To suffer no more with the heartache
And sorow / meet In this life;
But perhaps from my SORROW swept heart
strings
melody sweet may be vrung.
And my lips, when they drank deep OF suffer
Ing,
The tenderest songs may have sung.
lis SO hard to be patient with living,
When all OF the world Is awry;
So wearisome waiting for pleasures
That will only come after we die;
But even through all my complaining
can hear that undytng refrain
1T Is better TO live and to suffer. E.
Than to die to be out OF the pain"
will live and be strong. and viii suffer.
II need be- until | find rest,
When life and Its trials are over;
Though never my life should be blest
Though always the sun should DO darkened
By tho clouds that hang over my way,
VIII trust that the light will be clearer

How Jay Gould pi.penses Charity.

Like most of the successful men Of
the present age, Mr.. Gould is extreme
y methodical and systematic in his
habits. He rises every morning at
precisely half past z, seldom varying
from that hour more than ten min
utes. At S o'clock he sits down TO his
breakfast, which in his case is usually
French rolls and a cup of coffee, and
expects TO find every member Of his
family present at hat meal. Break
fast over, his private secretary is called
in, and the numerous begging letters
Of the mornings mail are laid upon
the table. Each member selects at
random a number of these letters and
reads them over. If any one of them
are impressed by any of the letters
they are laid aside for future refer
ence, while the others go into the
waste basket. Those letters which
have been laid aside are then taken up
and discussed, and if a majority OF
those present conclude that it is a case
which really deserves assistance the
assistance is sure to come within a
very few hours in a very substantial
form and without tine slightest hint as
to the identity OF the donor. -Phila-

Charles Corson is a merry, rollick-
ing young man, who often tries his
good mother by his great carelessness
Of behavior. She had often said TO him
that she wished he would sit more
quietly, talk in a less noisy fashion,
and try in every way to cultivate repose
of manner.
One evening there was to be a room
full of formal company at the Corsons,
and Mrs. Corson gave her son line
upon line, and precept upon precept
There is nothing more elegant in q
young man." she concluded, than
perfect repose of manner"
The company came. Charles grew
interested in the conversation, and
quite forgot his good resolutions. He
rushed about the rooms. talked very
fast, and at last, in fetching n dish OF
ice cream for one of the guests, stun
bled against his mothers chair and
spilled half Of the ice cream down the
folds of her gown.
Then came, with a flash Of sweet
tempered emphasis, words which con
trasted drolly with the abashed face Of
the young man.
Charles, dear" said Mrs. Corson,
scarcely turning from the friend with
whom she CHANGED to be talking,
Charles, dear, / wish you would cul'
tivate repose of mannerl"
The delicate contrast between the
phase of reproof and the vexatious ac-
ton that evoked it made every one
smile and Charles smiled, too, as, beg
ging his mothers pardon, he knelt
down, napkin in hand, TO wipe the
ruined folds Of silk.-Youth's Com

S. OHIO WILSON IN THE EAST

This gentleman and brother in the
Alliance spoke in the court house at
Jackson, Norths npton county, on the
18th inst. to a respectable crowd of
interested Alliance men. They ap.
plauded his strong and courageous
u5terances condemning the oppressive
grinding power of the monopo-
lies Of the country. They cheered
him when he dared to strike men
and measures that seek to obstruct
onward march of the farming and
laboring classes toward freedom from
financial oppression and political serf
dom. He spoke for an hour and
twenty minutes, then occupied quite
awhile talking and exhibiting his
samples. [ think the Alliance men
present were re baptized in spirit and
in truth and feel more than ever
united in support of the order.
Next day, the 10Th, brother Wilson
spoke at Gatesvllle, Gates county, and
yesterday at Winton, in this, Hertford
county, to a larger mum Der of Alliance
men, for about two hours, and was
applauded louder, oftener and longer
than at Jackson He explained the
non. partisan character of the Alliance;
that it was sent for the publication of
politics and the wise administration
of wholesome laws, and whatever men
or parties put themselves in the way
of this grand object must be met by
a united and therefore invincible
phalanx of farmers at the ballot box
and by argument in the halls of legis
lation He showed that members of
the order should attend the meetings,
bear their part of the burdens as well
as reap the reward, and not simply be
following along for the loaves and
fishes, etc. l said to him, "this
beats your Jackson speech" He re-
piled, "pshsw, it's nothing to what l
did at Gatesville yesterday" Our
County Alliance men were much
pleased and enco 1raged by this
apostle of Alliance gospel. Wnen

choking representative to the legisla-
ture, J. L. Anderson, for having 3

The PROGRESSIVE FARMER l cannot
afford to be without it for double the
amount it costs. l am sorry to say l
am the only member of Spring Vale
Alliance, No. 1925, who takes it. l
give way copy nearly every meeting
of our order and [ find that those who
read it are as true as steel to the ALI
ance and its noble cause. We have
already seen what the great farmers
movement can do if they will only act
in unity. Brethren, pray together,
stand together and pull together and
the victory is ours. Our purpose is
honest, just and good for all who are
willing to 10 as they wish to oe done
by. am one of the charter mem bers
of Spring Vale Alliance. 1 heard
some parties talking not very friendly
about the Alliance and it's great work,
ank they called my attention to toe
statement that the Alliance would not
stand long, because it had too many
masters. a am my own master,
cried a young man when the Alliance
tried to persuade me to join their
masters. can dictate for myself.
Did you ever consider what respon,
siole post that is ? asked. RESPONSE
bility is is2 Yes, I replied. A
master must lay ont the work he
wants done, and see that it is done
right; he should try to secure the
best ends by the best means; he must
keep on the lookout against obstacles
and accidents and watch that every
thing goes straight, else he will fail
TO be master of himself. You have
your conscience to keep clear, your
heart to cultivate, your temper to
govern, your will to direct and your
judgment to instruct. You are
master over a hard lot, and if you
don't master them they will master
you. This is so, said the young man.
And you think God is master
of the Alliance Saul wanted
to be his own MASTER and failed.
Herod did, Judas did, and failed.
Now, Mr. Editor, we believe our work
is under Gods direction. When He is
master, all goes right.
Now | would like to let the brethren
know how we are getting along.
Spring Vale Alliance had some weak
kneed members and some drones, and
we got clear of them and now our
order is growing steadily. We now
number II males and females and
more knocking for admittsnce. We
are are now preparing hall which
will seat about 200 people, and we are
going to complete it before Christmas.
