There seems to be little doubt that
congress will authorize the secretary of
the treasury to issue bonds for the osten-
sible purpose of replenishing the gold
reserve, and none that the secretary, will
avail himself of the authority as soon as
conferred. That policy would relieve
the financial and business stress to some
extent for time; but it would be only
temporary relief and would be followed
by another squeeze. augmented by the
increase in the public debt to the extent
of the bond issue plus interest.

The winter mist passed through the vale
And hid the mountains, blue and pale
II wreathed the hedge with quaint designa
Flung graceful pennons from the pines,
And wrapped the river in shroud
Until il seemed q flowing cloud,
Then passing on 10 regions dim.
Sad tears from every branch and limb
Like richest jewels pendent hung.
Then suddenly shaft was flung:
A ray OF sunlight pierced the gray
Low clouds and kissed the tears away,
And made the mist clad noun tains seem
The fairest castles Of youths dream
Gloom fed as Shone the light above
Thought spoke Of sorrow Won by love.

Evening.

Evening.
Far DER the plains the setting sun
Sinks in flood Of liquid light;
The creeping shadows dark and dun
Speak the diurnal journey run,
And herald the approaching night.
The slautipg sunbeams glance and CLEAN
On many broad and winding stream,
Whose slowly-winding waters seem
Full loath to lose Array.
The smiling groves, the fruitful trees.
Deserted by the wandering breeze,
Fade dinly on the eye that sees
The gently-dying day.
The mountains bare their storm beat breast
In gladness to the golden west,
And every shining height
Ambitious rears its joyful peak
To catch the last faint golden streak
OF slowlywaning light
So dies the day, and, as it dies,
Fair Luna mounts the eastern skies,
Calm, cold, majestic, as to say:
why mourn the slow-departing day.
Let grief for fair Aurora's fight
Be lost in rapture for the night"

In One Of the Years Gone BY.
As push aside the year mlsts that stretch -
far away
can see little picture framed in 3 summers
day
That hangs in memory's gallery IS the bright
est, dearest view
Ny fancy ever painted, or my history ever
knew.
A golden landscape picture. with green hii.
and the sea
Stretched out as far as eye could reach. like
vast eternity:
A sunset glow upon the sky where clouds all
tinted lay.
As good by words the sun had ief, for twilight
lips to say.
And little maiden standing IN dreamy reverie,
A soft. glad light upon her face. which looked
far out to sea;
While wind which tossed the sparkling waves
played with her shining hair,
As if it half expected to find some sun
beams there
I look upon this picture and my heart is thros-
bling fast
The freshness OF its beauty was in the happy
past;
as dear TO me,
For'its presence lights life gallery as gift OF
memory.
The little maidens golden hair has turned 70
twilight gray:
Her girlish dreams have wakened as she passed
along LIES way;
Yet hand in hand together, youths hope ful.
As meath times fading shadows shines loves
eternity. 4

Would our lives seem any dearer,
If our future we could see
And the map was laid before Us
OF the great eternity?
Would we do Gods win the better
If An angel whispered low
That the summons comes tomorrow
We must be prepared to gos
Would the hasty words be spoken
Or the frown we Oft would stay
Cloud our brow II we our future
Knew it as it came each dayy
Would our thoughts be any pureH
Be our deeds Of mercy more,
II the curtain could be lifted
And We saw the other shores
All, methinlss II we could see II
Tear the veil from OF the years,
That the worldly lives OF sunshine
Would shed many bitter tears.
Why not live as God would have Us!
Be prepared when He shall call?
For from death tho there be shrinking
II will surely come to all.

But there sing they who triumphed over sor.

With their blithe tones my heart bids thee good
