pIMPLes AND WRINKLES.

The deepest Of dimples to wrinkles have
run
Since Mary was twenty and I twenty-one;
But, dimpled OF wrinkled, my sweet
hearts the same,
From the sunDurst Of life to its last
little flame.
The cheeks that were roses are shrunken
aud pale,
But their velvety purity never will fail;
And lips that were flushed with the red
blood Of youth
Are warm with love as undying as
truth.
The blue Of her eyes Is fading to gray,
And the gold of her hair is silver to-day;
But the soul is the same that was orbed
in the blue,
And silyern is golden when love lights
the view.
And, dimpled or wrinkled, blush will
confess
The happiness born Of a lovers caress,
For the heart Of a woman is tender as
true
And the passion II cherishes ever is new
With Mary at twenty and me twenty-one,
Than dimples naught sweeter was under
the sun;
With Mary at sixty and me sixty-one,
Why, dimples were made 80 that wrin-
kles might run.

The Volunteer Army has reached the
point whore the stability and success
OF the new organization seem assured.
The partial details OF Its growth In this
time were given to the public in spe-
clal united rally OF the forces of the
Northwest, and the statement then
made by Col. Fielding, the head OF the
Western contingent, must be gratifying
to the hosts OF friends OF the plucky
little band. When the new movement
was started as an Independent and
strictly American body the headquar-
ters In Chicago consisted of a small

ing reports that the army now Includes
nearly 1000 members. scattered among
100 posts, OF which forty-seyen are In
the Northwest. In Illinois alone there
are twenty-five organized posts and 1856
commissioned officers. In New York
the army has a fine building on Union
Square, from which II publishes It's
weekly and monthly literature. The
striking feature OF this conspicuous sue
cess Is that II does not appear to have
been achieved at the expense OF the
parent organization. A few OF the
leaders who were closely allied with
Balllngton Booth are known to have
left the Salvation army with him, but
In most OF the cases the recruits have
come from the outside, There seems
no doubt there is room for both armies,
and perhaps the rule OF competition
that is so effective In business may
have similar results in these religious
associations, and stimulate each to
greater endeavor and bring to each
richer harvest than It would have en-
joyed alone.
