THE EVENING STAR.
By the rapt ardor of my gaze

By the rapt ardor of my gaze
sought to hold the evening star
Above the dark horizon bar.
Where, lamplike, swung its mellow blaze.
But toward the deepening glow it drew,
And nearer to the crimson belts
Wherein the amber aff1uence melts,
Seeking for heavens fresh and new.
So sought once to hold soul,
Fair as the holy star of night,
Above the earth line, in my sight,
By force of Loves supreme control.
But gloryward it dipped and drew.
Nor staid for ardor of my gaze,
Passing from out our earthly ways
To those far heavens which are the new.

1t isn't often that they are serious, but
now and then one of the boys gets
smashed, and then there is naturally
some blood around, and it gets on the

ment very considerably used to put such
sacks out of use, for you can't get the
stain out. Then some genius conceived
the notion of dyeing them red, but that
only served to mark them.
'sEvery business has its supersti

ly poor young girl, and wanted to
marry her; but the parents objected
seriously. Parents are always I'M
reasonable and these parents held
that the young man should have
few dollars ahead before taking the
girl to the altar; but the young man
was determined to marry and get the
few dollars afterward, and the girl
told her mother that If she couldn't
wed Tom she would take a gallon of
poison and die. And SO the folks
gave In. The young people were
married and went to housekeeping In

ting Is very asaduously taught, and
that. especially fn the yearly mounted
competition for workmanship prizes,
the value of the point is impressed en-
rhaticaliy upon the men. But If our
cavalry were to go into actAon to-mor-
row. can anyone who knows our SOL
diers doubt that the greater number Of
them would at once begin to cut at
their enemy?
They Nave been Taught to cut, and

exertion which they entail on them
selves, and forgetting that the weap-
ons have points as well as edges II

with that of the cut as regards IT'S e4-
feet on an enemy, it is UNNECESSARILY
the more effective. In a cut, even II
the sword does not turn In the hand
and II the edge falls true, Il is always
more than likely that IL will encounter
