After this discovery the huge, rambling

bones of a dwarf. Idris had probably
been detected in playing false to his ter
rible mistress and had been summarily

UNDER THE DAISIES.

I have just been learning the lesson of life,
The sad. sad lesson of loving,
And all Gifts power for pleasure or pain
Been slowly, sadly proving;
And all that is left of the bright, bright dream,
With its thousand brilliant phases,
Is handful of dust in coffin hid
coffin under the daisies,
The beautiful, beautiful daisies,
The snowy snowy daisies.
And thus forever throughout the world
Is love sorrow proving;
There's many a sad, sad thing in life,
But the saddest of all is loving.
Love often divides far greater than death,
Stern fortune the high wall raises,
But better far than two hearts estranged
Is o low grave starred with daisies,
The beautiful, beautiful daisies,
The snowy, snowy daisies.
And so am glad that we lived as we did
Through the summer of love together,
And that one OF US tired and LAID down TO rest
Ere the coming of wintry weather.
For the sadness OF love is loves growing cold,
And It's one of its surest phases,
So bless my God with a breaking heart
For that grave enstarred with daisies,
The beautiful, beautiful daisies,
The snowy, snowy daisies.

The following compositions were
selected from Mondays collection:
DISTRIBUTION OF TIME.
"Time is indeed precious boon,
But with the boon task is given,
The heart must learn its duty well
To man on earth and God in heaven"
How wonderfully important is it
that we be very careful in this all
important theme! Yet how often
we are negligent In the way we
spend the time that is given us to
improve. God has commanded us
to improve our time, for if we should
fail to do this, He will not hold us
guiltless. In His sacred writings,
we have an example of the parable
of the talents. The good and faith
full servant who industrlouslY used
the talents that were given to him,
received additional ones; when the
wicked and slothful servant buried
his in the earth, that which he had
was taken from him. We are of
ten like the wicked servant, bury
ing our talents and wasting the
time that Is given US to improve.
No one can fully appreciate time
and opportunities afforded to accu-
mulate knowledge, until thought
Iessly they have let the golden mo-
ments pass unimproved.

These compositions were written
by very little girls:

sition, but it teaches me not to be

do many other things. The grass
