At least we have got on to the fact
that the Hall-Scheffer- News Globe

put in the field. The financial con-
fulfilled, and it may weaken. But
this paper was to be entirely choked
off from the campaign. 1t is one

her sister-in-law, who Is one of my es-

"She Is a woman of great decision o

reached the middle of the room, and
there she stood with her finger in her
mouth eyeing her mother closely. The
mother had turned in her chair away
from me~ and was watching the baby
srnilinrly 1t was evident that the
caller was entirely forgotten for the

that the baby should mind. i made a

She had simply spoken, and now ex-

"No," burst from the baby.
'sOh, yes, smiled mamma Brother

mothers face, and then ran out OF the
room. Then, and not until then, did
the mother give me her attention

With musical notes, soft clear, and true.

A young, bright world. with no sign of sadness
Traced on Its brow that our eyes can see.
