GE MS IN VERSE.


Serene she sits, her knitting in her hand,
While round her clusters a childish band.
And she weayes romances to suit each mind
OF dreadful giants or fairies kind.
Though her hair is gray, her hearts, still young
And happy always the children among,
And the world may pass when she gets a book
She's quite content in her little nook.
But she's ready 10 work when need comes by,
With her eyes ON earth, her thoughts on high;
Slow with her anger, in sympathy quick
To help the weary, wicked or sick.
Has she missed her life, this woman alone?
If so, she knows not, utters no moan.
She thinks not of missions, of rights or power.
But tries with duty to fill each hour.
Her work for others takes a husbands place.
Home lies in many a loving face,
And for children, wherever shines the sun
Her heart goes out to them. every one.

Consolation.

Consolation.
There's another land and better,
We are told,
Where the slave shakes off his fetter.
And where worth is never debtor
Unto gold.
Thither often are we turning
Weary eyes,
And our heavy hearts are yearning,
Night and day are ~throbbing, burning.
For its skies.
There that foolish superstition,
Pride of birth,
Finds its sudden demolition,
And our beings final mission
Is Of worth.
There the insolence OF power
Falls away,
And the proudest soul must cover.
For the spirit takes no dover
From the clay.
Common lives have wondrous splendor
In that light,
For the spirit meek and tender
Puts to shame the kings defender
Shorn of might.
Natures touched with fires seraphic
Shed their care,
And on peace grit islands Sapphic.
Far from fretful toll and traffic,
Dream and dare.
Laws through years OF wrong descended
There are changed:
Customs with injustice blended,
Creeds for centuries defended,
Rearranged.
Heaven has solace without measure
You and |
Should not dream of earthly pleasure,
But should think about our treasure
In the sky.
-George Horton.

Federal Health Precautions on the Del
aware Sufficient to Prevent Disease.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 29 The Penn
sylvania Joint Quarantine Committee
has prepared a report which will be
presented to the Senate and House to-
day. 1t will report that the plans of
the Federal Government for a national
quarantine, including the new disinfect-
ing plant on Reedy Island, makes pro-
visions amply sufficient to meet existing
requirements. While it is the opinion of
the committee that these precautions
against the introduction of cholera
and other infectious diseases will
obviate the necessity Of maintaining in
full force either a state or municipal
quarantine aud will do away with need
less obstruction of the Delaware, the
present state quarantine organization will
not be disturbed, as tue committee
thinks that the state should be prepared
for any developments threatening the
health of Pennsy ylvania.
A bill has been prepared to meet the
views of the committee which also makes
other notifications of the present law to
meet the requirements Of the commercial
interests of the state. In view of this
fact Mr.. Bliss last night had recommitted
