A Place For the Boys.

What can boy do and where can boy stay
If he is always told to get out of the wayf
He cannot sit here, and he must not stand
there.
Tho cushions that cover that fine rocking chair
We're put there, Of course, to be seen and ad-
mired.
A boy has no business to ever be tired.
The beautiful roses and flowers that bloom
On the floor Of the darkened and delicate room
Are not made to walk on-at least not by boys.
The house is no place, anyway, for their noise.
A place for the boys, dear mother, pray.
As cares settle down round our short earthly
way
Don't let us forget by our kind, loving deeds
To show we remember their pleasures and
needs.
Though our souls may be vexed with problems
And worn with besetments and toiling and
strife,
Our hearts will keep younger-your tired heart
and mine
II we give them q place in their innernost
shrine
And to life's latest hour twill be one Of our
joys
That we keep small corner, place for the

The Quaker Bonnet.

Long have kept beautiful bonnet.
Feathers and flowers were never upon H.
But once it encircled sweeter face
Than ever was decked with ribbons and lace.
More plainly it speaks than language can tell
OF the peaceful face it covered so well.
She sat with the elders. facing meeting
Always extending kindly greeting
Her life, like her garb. plain and consistent
Won many warm friends, both home and dls-
tant.
And we know we treasure her teachings more
For the plain Quaker bonnet which she wore.
So charming costume as the Quaker
In fashion g domain ne'er had maker,
Half of Its beauty being the bonnet
So plain and neat, with no trimming on It,
IT'S treasure keep. with rev'rent care,
With the cap and kerchief its owner did wear
They are passing away, crossing the river
To Join the vast army, gone forever.
But when we are called to final account,
To enter the kingdom or be left out,
'Mong those who are chosen, depend upon H.

If We Only Knew.

There are gems Of wondrous brightness
Outlines lying at our feet,
And we pass them, walking thoughtless
Down the busy, crowded street.
II we knew, our pace would slacken,
We would step more oft with care,
Lest our careless feet be treadlng
To the earth some jewel rare.
If we knew what hearts are aching
For the comfort we might bring,
If we knew what souls are yearning
For the sunshine we might fling,
II we knew what feet are weary
Walking pathways roughly laid,
We would quickly hasten forward,
Stretching forth our hands to aid.
II we knew what friends around W
Feel want they never tell,
That some word that we have spoken
Panied or wounded where 1t fell,
We would speak III accents tender
To each friend we CHANGED to meet
We would give to each one freely
Smiles Of sympathy SO sweet.

AsleeD,


Dear, tired Mother Earth has gone to sleep.
Walk tiptoe through her chamber lest sho
waken.
Her children faithful watch above her keep
While she with slumber sweet Is overtaken.
Not long ago thousand tender ferns
Spread over her their wealth Of dew spun
laces
And nestled close to her warm heart, where
burns
The fire that kindles springtimes sylvan
graces.
And when the blessed mother longed for rest,
How soothingly the little slender grasses
Threw all their soft green arms across her
breasti
No wintry blast shall touch her as it passes.
The naples wstched her with beaming smile
When proud October covered them with
glory
And gladly doffed their golden robes the while
with them they made her bed-the ole sweet
story.
And yesterday all day the longing sky
Bent lovingly and wistfully above her.
While soft, white kisses-oh, so tenderlyl-
Came down and covered her. Who could bus

Memory.

What we miscall our life is memory.
We walk upon narrow patch between
Two gulfs-what is to be and what has been
Led by guide whose name is Destiny
Beyond are sghtless gloom and mystery,
From whose unfathomable depths we CLEAN
Chaotic hopes and terrors dimly seen
Reflections Of a past reality.
Behind, pursuing through the twilight haze,
The phantom people Of the past appear
Hope, happiness and sorrow, fruitless STRIFE
And all the loved and lost Of other days.
They crowd upon us closer year by year
Till we, as phantoms haunt some other life

Sorrowful Things.
There is much that makes me sorry as jour-
ney down life's way,
And seem to see more pathos In poor human
lives each day.
1 am sorry for the strong, brave men VINO
shield the weak from harm,
But who, in their own troubled hours, find no
protecting arm.
am sorry for the victors who have reached
success to stand
As targets for the arrows shot by envious fail
ure's hand.
/ am sorry for the generous hearts who freely
shared their wine,
But drink alone the gall of tears in fortunes
drear decline.
/ am sorry for the souls who build their own
frames funeral pyre,
Derided by the scornful throng, like ice oerio'
ing fire.
/ am sorry for the conquering ones who know
not sins defeat, =,
But daily tread down fierce desire meath
scorched and bleeding feet.
am sorrv for the anguished hearts that break
with passions strains,
But am sorrier for the poor, starved Souls
that never knew loves palms,
Who hunger on through barren years not tast'
ing Joys they crave,
For sadder far is such lot than weeping DER
grave.
am sorry for the souls that come unweloomeo
into birth;
am sorry for the unloved old who cumoer up
the earth;
am sorry for the suffering poor in life's mael-
strom hurled;
In truth, / am sorry for them all who make
this aching world.
But underneath whatever seems SAD ana IL
not understood
know there lies hid from our sight mighty
germ of good.
| And this belief stands firm by me, my sermon
motto, text -,
The sorriest things in this life will seem
| grandest in the next.

And spread cut verdurous SCREEN

RESIDENCE DESTROYED.
A Five Thousand Dollar Fire in Nov
 finger Addition.

Last night, shortly after s, fire was discovered in the kitchen of a two- story brick residence in west Novinger addition, the property of Mrs. J. j.. Gardiner. The building was under the care of an old man, John Dore, he be- ing ill the front of the house at the time. He can give no explanation of the cause, as no fire had to his knowl- edge been on tine premises for more than two hours
 Neighbors were quickly on the scene and the contents of the lower floor were saved. but the furniture of the upper floor could not be touched. No facilities were at hand for com batting the fire, so it burned on un- disturbed till every vestige of wood work had been consumed and till the western wall had fallen.
 The building was erected about three years ago at a cost of St, ,OOO, the loss in furniture bringing up the loss near ly thousand. It was insured for s2,5O0.
 Though the building was fully q mile beyond the city limits and the water mains, an alarm was turned fin for tht fire department half an hour after the blaze.
