Unavoidably Prevented.

Captain Bliss was, like all seamen, a
strict disciplina1ian and his crew respect
ed him beyond measure. Not one of them
would have dreamed of interpreting a
command otherwise than according to the
strict letter of the law. Things must be
done ''shipshape" under his rule.
One day while the ship was in certain
small port the captain gave a dinner to
some town acquaintance and as the re-
sources of the ship were not great some of
the sailors were deputed to wait on the
table to re- enforce the insufficient num-
Der of stewards.
AS these men were not used to such
work each one was told exactly what
service would fall to his share
The hour came, and the dinner went
merrily on. Presently, however, one of
the ladies wanted piece of bread. There
was none very near her, and the finely
disciplined stewards seemed to be quite
oblivious to her need. She turned her head
and spoke very softly to the man at her
elbow.
Bread, please" she said.
He looked regretfully at the bread and
then at her. 1t was evident that he would
fain have helped her if it had been in his
power. He saluted in fine naval style.
Cant do it, ma'am," said he. "I'm
told off for 'taters. "-Youth's Companion.

Is 1t So?

Is 1t so, o Christ in heaven, that the highest
suffer most,
That the strongest wander farthest and moro
hopelessly are lost,
That the mark of rank in nature is capacity
for pain,
That the anguish Of the singer makes the
sweetness of the strain?
Is 1t SO, o Christ in heaven, that whichever
way we go
Wall, of dark ness must surround us, things we
would but cannot know
TT at the infinite must bound us like a temple
veil unrent,
While the finite ever wearies so that none at
tain content?
Is it SO, o Christ in heaven, that the fullness
yet to come
Is so glorious and so perfect that to know
would strike us dumb?
That if only for moment we would pierce be-
yond the sky,
With these poor dim eyes of mortals we should
just see God and die2

The Rest Line East.

Ia unquestionably the Burlington route.
In point of equipment, time and service
it is conceded to be superior to oil other
lines.
The fast vestibuled "fyer" leaving
Denver daily at 8 p. m, reaches Chicago
at 8 go a. IN. and st. Louis at 1920 a. M,
the second morning, in ample time to
connect with all fast trains for the east
and south.
1t is also fact worth remembering
that the Burlington is the only line run
ming through trains over its own tracks
from Denver to Chicago and st. Louis
without change of any class of cars.

ticket agents, or address G.. W. Vallery,

MS IN VERSE.
We Must Not Doubt.

We must not doubt or fear or dread that love
for life is only given,
And that the calm and santed dead will meet
estranged and cold in heaven
Oh, Love were poor and vain indeed, based on
so harsh and stern a creed.
Earth's lower things-her pride, her fame, her
science, learning wealth and power
Slow growths that through long ages came, or
fruits of some convulsive hour,
Whose every memory must decay-Heaven is
too pure for such as they.
They are complete; their work is done. So LET
them sleep in endless rest.
Loves life is only here begun, nor is nor can
be fully blest;
1t has no room to spread its wings amid this
crowd Of meaner things.

The Taking of the Tenor.

And the tenor is married. knew,
That brilliant night at the play,
That the sweet soprano with eyes Of blue
Was singing his heart away
Singing his heart away,
Leading his lips astray;
The dark Of the forest dreamed today
The stage was meadow, sweet with May;
She was singing his heart away-away,
Singing his heart away!
She was net singing to you,
She was not singing to me;
He saw hip,self in her eyes of blue,
A drowning man in sea!
A drowning man in sea
Where drowning is sweet! And She
Oh, she was singing his ship astray;
But the beautiful haven landward lay
The stage was meadow, sweet with May,
And the birds were singing his heart away
Singing his heart away!
l said when the curtain fell,
"Adieu, brave tenor, adieu!
You sang your part and you sang 1t we'll,
But Love sang sweeter than you'll
Love sang sweeter than YOU
Love, with the eyes of blue;
The sweet soprano-she knew, she knew
When sht vas singing Of love and May
That Love was master and ruled the play,
And Love was singing your heart away
Singing your heart away!
