Il SONG OF YESTERDAY.
lovely day of Easter! Thou art the dearest
thing
That comes with joy and solace in all the hap.
The fairest flowers and purest, the song most
glad and clear
That stirs with buoyant music the pulses of the
year.
Fair is April sunshine strong the March winds
Calling all the little leaves from frozen sleep OF
Precious is the fragrance that scents the locks
But what is all their beauty to the blessed Eas-
ter Day.
Laugh the meadows snooded in ribbons green
siIversbfeasted swallows in long homeward
flight do pass,
All the land is smiling with the little flowers at
But the promise of thy message is more jubi-
liant than they.
Lifting go the bright streams, singing as they
Hide the dimpling shadows from seeking of the
sun;
Small wee lambs are bleating in safe and shelf
cred fold
The newer day is dawning on the darkness of
the old;
Still art thou the fairest. When thy feet pass
Through Gods silent acres, all the seeds that
Waiting for His harvest, planted still and deep,
Thrill beneath thy footsteps, waken from their
sleep.
Rise to joy and glory rise to hope and love;
Rise to bloom and bourgeon in fairer fields
above;
Rise to lift and strengthen, with healing touch
and kind,
The hearts that else were broken, the eyes that
else were blind!
o come thou in the dark time, or come thou in
the bright,
Thou art the chiefest treasure of all the years
delight;
OF all its best and rarest the one dvinest thing,
Thou fadeless lily shining thou crown and
soul of Spring!

SIT makes me tired to see the man
ner in which these newspapers are
rum said the man in the smoking car
as he took off his glasses and let his
paper drop across his knees.
The man who sat next to him had
one lock of Harlan oasis in a desert
of scalp-which he spent most of his
time in smoothing reflectively.
Il s'pose," he said slowly, that you
could give 'em all points? '
I'm sure of it. Couldn't you ?''
No, don't think l could"
do you mean to say that you
couldn't tell the editor how to run his
paper p exclaimed the kicker in a
tone that had absolute dismay in it.
Il do, indeed, -" replied the man with
the oasis earnestly.
"Well, Unjust say there are not many
like you"
Il know it. l used to be like you
are. But now I'm trying to run a
newspaper myself, and I'll tell you,
my friend, I'm not saying word, not a

THE CURIOUS WOMEN.

He was showing them the various
pictures hanging on the wall. They
were gems, for he really had excellent
taste in art. There were choice bits
of landscape, lovely ideals of human
ity, studies of still life and hints from
the impressionist school. The ladies
viewed each with admiration, but
none with especial interest until they
came TO a huge frame, with its face
turned toward the wall. Immediate
ly they were all interest.
What is that?'' asked one of the
ladies.
The young man assumed an air of
mystery and shook his head. as
though he would like to tell but could
not.
I'm sorry, but you see"
but really we'd rather see that
than any of the others wouldn't we,
girls?''
The girls said they would.
"Well, ii you must see it, | suppose
you must,n said the exhibitor.
The young ladies conjured up all
kinds of beautiful visions as they look
ed up with expectancy on the myster-
! ious back of the frame.

said
OF course that only increased their
zeal Finally he turned the frame
and disclosed-a mirror! Were the

DISCOURAGING STUDY.

The case of the honest Irish servant
who could never understand why his
master perpetually required him to
wash his chaise, since he went direct
ly out and mudded it up again, is
paralleled by an actual reply by a
dull boy to an examiner in a French
school,
The pupil had passed wretched
examination in French history.
What do you mean by this?' ask
ed the instructor. why don't you
study your history?'
whats the use?" drawled the pu-
pill; they're never going to get it
finished. They're making it now!'

Germany has taken the initial step to-
ward curtailiny the importation of anoth-
err American product in the proposition
now before the Bundesrath to enormous
ly increased the duty OH cottonseed oil. The
proposition is to increase the present
duty. which Is 81. TO $3.50. equivalent to
q duty Of go per cent. and as the propo-
sition Is supported by the combined agra
rian and protectionist industrial parties
there can be little doubt that II will sue
coed. The subject is treated at length in
a report to the State Department by
United States Consul Merritt at Bremen.
He says that in future cottonseed oil and
oil nut seeds will pay a high duty. The
raising Of the duty is supported by the re-
port that its use for food purposes rose
from $1,000 pounds in 1885 to over Co.,
600 pounds in 1893. BY means of simple
processes Of refining, cottonseed oil can
be turned into sweet oil and is used to a
great extent in the manufacture of nrti.
fetal butter and also for the conservation
of fish.
