Jim Jones, he was an editor-that is, he tried
to be.
He bought himself hand press, an he started
in to see
Jes' what there was in edith, but when he'd
Canvasscd round
Some fifteen hundred editors in that same town
he found.
They all knew more about it than Jones could
hope TO know.
They told him: You must run her Jones, jes
an an so.
BE sure an boom the Baptists-- they're bound to
help you out
An give the good old Methodists big salvation
shout
Give every man a notice. BE sure an put 1t
down
Whenever Major links is seen perambulatin
town.
Put in few free locals for all the stores an give
Each man a free subscription--if you want
your sheet to live!n
Well, Jones he done ies as they said, for fear
they'd make a row:
But the more he tried to please 'em all, the more
they told him how,
Until at last he took his book an laid it on the
shelf,
Then run the paper in tho ground an follered
it himself!

The hands are such dear hands;
They are so full; they turn at our demands
So often; they reach out,
With triiieS scarcely thought about
So many times; they do
80 many things for me, for you
II their fond wills mistake,
We may wei bend, not break.
They are such fond, frail lips
That speak to us Pray. If love strips
Them of discretion many times,
Orr they speak too slow or quick such crimes
We may pass by; for we may see
Days not far of when those small words
may be
Held not as slow or quick or out of place, but
dear,
Because the lips are no more here
They are such dear, familiar feet that go
Along the path with ours-feet fast or slow,
And trying to keep pace-if they mistake
Or tread upon some flower that we would take
Upon our breast, OF bruise some reed,
Or crush poor Hope until it bleed,
We may be mute,
Not turning quickly to impute
Grave fault, for they and we
Have such little way to go-can be
Together such little while along the way
We will he patient while we may.
So many little faults we find.
We see them, for not blind
Is love. We see them, but If you and
Perhaps remember them some by and by
They will not be
Faults then-grave faults-to you and me,
But Just odd ways mistakes, or even less
Remembrance TO bless.
Days change so many things-yes, hours
We see SO differently in suns and showers.
Mistaken words tonight
May be so cherished by tomorrow's light.
We may be patient, for we know
There's such little way to 20.

True Love Is Immortal
He was old and grim and grizzled and gray,
With whiskers that looked like a forkful Of
hay,
And he lived in poor style for a man Of his
means,
While his costume ran mostly to flannel and
jeans
His neighbors made a sort of a butt and a joke
of him

And yet to his wife-and who dares call her
silly?-
He was never aught other than darling" or

Unlikely as it may seem to some VIII,
read these lines, it is "A fact, nevertheless
that there is an island in the gulf of Cali
lornia, not more than 60 miles from tb,
Mexican mainland, which is inhabited by
the remnants of a race of giant cannibals
This startling discovery was made by a west
coast naturalist early in 1891, and has since
been confirmed both by United States and
Mexican explorers. Mr.. Mcnamara, the
scientist referred to, has photograph Of
one OF the men found by him on the island,
that individual, although not one of the
largest, being over feet in height. The is
