Fame, Wealth, Life, Death.

What is fame?
Wis the sun CLEAN on the mountain
Spreading brightly ere it flies,
IT'S the bubble of the fountain
Rising lightly ere 1t dies;
Or, If here and there hero
Be remembered through the years,
Yet to him the gain is zero;
Death hath stilled his hopes and fears.
Yet what danger men will dare
If but only in the air /
May be heard some eager mention Of their
Though they hear it not themselves, tits much
the same.
What is wealth.
TITS rainbow, still recedlng
As the painting fool pursues.
Or toy that, youth unheeding,
Seeks the readiest way to lose;
But the wise man keeps due measure,
Neither out of breath nor base:
He but holds in trust his treasure
For the welfare of the race.
Yet what crimes some men will dare
But to gain their slender share
In some profit. though with loss of name or
health.
What is life9
IT'S the earthly hour of trial
For a life that's but begun,
When the prize of self denial
May be quickly lost or won;
'Tis the hour when love may bourgeon
To an everlasting flower,
Or when lusts their victims urge on
To defy immortal power.
Yet how lightly men ignore
All the future holds In store,
Spending brief but golden moments all in
strife,
Or in suicidal madness grasp the knife.
What is death?
Past its dark, mysterious portal
Human eye may never roam;
Yet the hope still springs immortal
That it leads the wanderer home.
Oh, the bliss that lies before us
When the secret shall be known,
And the vast angelic chorus
Sounds the hymn before the throne!
What is fame or wealth or life?
Past are praises, fortune, strife;
All but love, that lives forever, cast beneath
When the good and faithful servant takes the
the wreath. London Academy.

One advantage OF taking Ayers Sarsa-
parilla to purify the blood is that you
need not infringe upon your hours of
labor nor deny yourself any food that
agrees with you. In word, you are not
compelled to starve or loaf, while taking
it. These are recommendation worth
considering.

The Merit of the Deed.

The painter paints a picture Of the summer
sky Of blue,
But he cannot steal the rainbow lights from
the smallest drop Of dew;
But the painter makes his picture from the
Master Artists own,
And he takes his brightest coloring where His
faintest tints have shown.
The poet writes poem in dream of summer
hours.
But he cannot steal the sweetness from the
humblest of the flowers;
So the poet writes poem, and because his
eyes are sealed
Sees not glimmer of the glory which he fain
would have revealed.
The singer sings song in the golden summer
tide,
But the wild bird Of the morning into sweeter
notes can glide;
So the singer sings song and knoweth not its
lay
Is the silence Of the echoes that in heaven died
away.
Thus it seems the tireless worker who meier
taketh needed rest,
And the hand that giveth literally and giveth
of its BEST
Each gives the widows mite to the world of
want and need,
And the love which prompts the giving Is the
merit of the deed.

Except what wisdom lays on evil men
Is evil; hurts the faculties, impedes
Their progress in the road of science; blinds
The sight of discovery and begets
In those that suffer 1t sortlid mind,

To be the tenant Of mans noble form.

II have no reference books at hand"
replied the senator, "Dut off hand can
make a partial statement. For some

off of Santa Barbara and Los Angeles
counties has been a mooted question.
About year ago. was consulted regsrd-
ing the matter. and l looked it up at
that time. but have not thought OF the
matter since. My recollection is that
by the provisions of that treaty it is
hard to state exactly what territory was
decided to this country. l believe, how.
ever, that it embraces land within
lines drawn q stated number of miles
off shore. and ii this is the case, it may
then be determined whether the islands

against the country itself. For instance,
the island Of Santa Catalina, if nv
memory serves me right, was originally
granted to Mr.. Covsrrub bias, the father

by the Mexican government. II this is

JUDGE LAMME'S VIEWS.
He Feels Confident That tho Unit,

He Feels Confident That tho Unit Q d
States Will Hold tho Islands.
Edwin Fl. Lamme, ESQ.,, master and
examiner in chsncery of the United
States district court. was interviewed
concerning the contents OF the above
letter.
"You may say" said Judge Lsmme,
that it is my opinion expressed with
out looking up the law upon the subject
that the title to these islands is unq les.
tionably In the United States. AS COM
tiguous islands to the main land the
United States always has had the title
to them. II for no other reason than
the fact this country has Maintained un.
disputed title to the islands and col.
lected taken upon them for fifty years,
we can claim them and hold poss ession
against all claimants. Many OF the
group are now owned, titled, cultivated
and psstured by American citizens, and
/ am 6rm in my belief that under no
circumstances will the United States
surrender the property to Mexico or any
other country.
THE time has long since passed when
Mexico could claim the archipelago, or
question whether the islands were in
cluded within the lines of the treaty of
1S48 by the right OF undisputed posses-
sion for half century. l think this
county can remain in possession OF the
islands.
The ialand of Santa Catalina, for in
stance. for many years has been i'm
Guided within the limits OF Los Angeles
county, and every year has been regu-
larly assessed by the county assessor,
and the taxes paid to the county tax
collector.
1T seems preposterous that at this
