Love in q Cottage. I"
TO H. g..

am dreaming, idly dreaming
VI the sOrr0w-laden PAST.
With its pains and pleasures, teeming.
With Its joys too bright TO iasti
Dreaming OF my buried treasures
Observation-Disclosures GONE,
VI the past with all its pleasures.
of my youths enchanted morn.
l remember, I remember
One sweet moment fed away,
When the mornings ruddy tmber
kfndled on the shrine OF day.
SIZE was GoNE---my heart was weary,
Sne was gone--my heart was sud,
Every song seemed cold and drearv.
sang the birds no antheums gladi
SHE RETURNED-my sorrow persisted
hope returned with her 1 loved,
Yet the vision that cherished
Lcthe'S sceptre hath removed.
False as hell! THOU dost surrender
Every nObleI thought to PRIDE.
Spurning love and friendship tender
For q boon by fate denied.
Does he love with love more lasting
Than the love I've given thee?
Tho the frost of DEArH is blasting.
Every JOY SO dear TO me-,
Does HE give thee love far better,
Than this deathless love of mine.
That thy hand should snap each fetter
That once bound my heart to thine?
but dreampt, my dream was heaven,
BUT my waking was q HE'LL,
Every cord OF hope was riven,
All my bright air castles fell
You insult the name of WOMEN,
When you scorn the ties of love,
AND cold wealth You deem an omen
OF life that bliss will prove.
You are scarcely worth the loving.
Scarcely worth a second thought,
For my acts your heart is proving,
That by GOLD 1t can be bought.
Curse be the base born feeling
That forsakes true love for toys
Toys OF wealth that time is stealing,
From our treasure house Of joys.
Cursed be the bond that binds thee,
To HIS all unworthy hearth
Cursed be the veil that blinds thee
To HIS cold and selfish artl
Cursed be the fated hour
When first thy gentle face
Viewed, with its enchanting power,
And its light and winsome gracel
Cursed be HIS lips Of lying!
Cursed be the art that he
Gainst thy woman's pride is plying!
cursed be MY LOVE FOR THEE.
Let 1t pass! the coming morrow
May be brighter than to-day,
Life? 1t is not ALL Of sorrow,
All OF joys that but decay.
Let 1t passl remorse's fingers
Clutch the past and hold 1t still,
And the light Of hope still fingers,
Fingers here against the will.
Let 1t pass-my heart is weary
OF LIES brief-enchanted spell,

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

In his message Of December 2, 1923,
President Monroe uttered the follow
ing, which is an extract, and Is known
as The Monroe Doctrine:
I'VE owe 1t, therefore, to candor
and 10 amicable relations existing be-
tween the United States and those
powers, to declare that we should con-
slider any attempt on their part TO ex-
tend their system t. any portion OF
this hemisphere as dangerous to our
peace and safety. With the existing
or dependencies Of any European pow
er, we have not inferred and we shall
not interfere. But with the govern
ments who have declared their indie.
pendcnce and maintained IT., and
whose independence we have, on great
consideration and on just principles
acknowledged, we could not view any
interpOsition for the purpose OF 'Op-
pressing them, or controlling In any
other manner their destiny, by any
European power, In any light than In
the manifestation OF M unfriendly
disposition toward the United States.
But In regard to these contingents,
circumstances arc eminently and con
spicuously different. 1t is impossible
that the allied powers should extend
political system to any part OF either
continent without endangering our
peace and happiness nor can any one
believe that our southern brethren, II
left to themselves would adopt 1t Of
their own accord. 1t is equally i'm
possible, therefore, that We should be-
fold Sdctf iuterpositiUn In n y,f0rm,
with indifference"

OTHERS SHOULD % LIKEWISE.

say to foreign advertisers that they
can get no space in this paper on con

worth advertising. ltall newspapers
of this State would have the dignity
abOHt them that they should it would
not be long until. foreign advertising
would pay asss well as homer work.
However, this degree Of dignity b
lacking amongR great many, Of our
fraternity. Unfortunately, we have
got u lot OF hungry fellows among us
who will do go worth Of advertising
for a 10 cent picture or a bottle OF pat
ent medicine. Suchterms can not be
met by decent publisher" ~ .
1t has been the rule with the DEMO

treat foreign advertisers just as we do
the home advertiser. We take very
few foreign or 'patent medicine" ad-
vertisements, because the prices Offer
ed is'so small, and when We do accept
them they'are paid for at our regular
rates. 81

The vansieaye Youths Hunting Club to
The Front.x

Kditor Democrat-Star.
II YOU will allow space in the COL
umns q the "old reliable" we will
give its feaders a description of a very
pleaNnt event, given on the evening
OF the 10Th ult. by the "Vancleavc
Youths Hunting Club" in honor of
their third annual hunt. The upper
which was a grand success was given
at the home Of Mr.. A. w. Ramsay,
and was served in real old southern
style. MIR. and Mrs. Ramsay, the
genial host and hostess made every
one feel sentirely at home. The long
dining hall was made lovely with
banks of Holly, Spruce and Palms and
brilliant lights brought out in bold
relief the words, Merry Christmas
done in white on a back ground of
arbOr Vita. The decorating was done
by Hubert H., the promising young
son Of Mr.. A. W. Ramsay, and senior
member OF the club. Hubert is a
student now, and we predict for him
a bright future in the medical world.
About sevcnty-five friends and re-
latives were present, and when the
sixteen young hunters fled in and
took tlretr seats at the long table a
hand w;iS raised for silence and Mr..
Ed. Rockefeller was called on to pro-
n0unce q blessing, which he very
gracefully did, after which ample Jus.
tice was done to what was before
them. All honor is due these rising
young men for their untlring efforts
to make this annual hunt and supper
IA success. There are members of this
club who could compete with any, for
good craftsmanship. Hubert and Sid
Ramsay, Malcolm and Fred Martin,
Norman Ramsay. Hal and Earl DAVIS
are considered the crack shots in this
cf0b. Among familiar faces who re-
turned to spend Christmas with the
loved ones at home, were those of
MesSrs. John Ramsay, Chlrlie Martin
and Hubert Il. Ramsay.
Lovely girls, with handsome escorts
made merry the timcg and all too soon
the hour OF parting came, so after the
hunters had treated their guests to a
fine display of fireworks and music
and fun, INDUCED IN a while longer
the "GOOd!nights" weregsaid and we
feel sure that peace and good will"
hsA prevailed throughout the even
ing's entertainment. That all present
will live to meet again during the
holidays Or 1895 under the same pleas
ant Conditions Is the true wish OF
Is MIZPAH.
