SEEM THINGS.

I amt afeard NV snakes or toads or bugs o.
worms or mice.
An things AT girls are skeered NV think are
awful nice.
I'm pretty brave, guess, an yet hate to go to
bed,
For when I'm tucked up warm an snug. an
when my prayers are said
Mother tells me "llappy dreamsl" and takes
away the light
An leaves me lyin all alone an seein things at
night.
Sometimes they're In the corner, sometimes
they're by the door,
Sometimes they're all a-staIilin In he middle
NV the floor.
Sometimes they are a-sittin down, sonetimes
they're wglk!n round
So softly an so creepylike they never make q
sound.
Sometimes they are as black as ink, an other
times they're white
But the color amt no difference when you see
things at night.
Once when licked Teller at had just moved
on our street
An father sent me up to bed without bit TO
eat,
woke up in the dark an saw things standin
in "A row.
On, my! wus so skeered that time / never
slep' mite
It's almost alluz when I'm bad see things at
night
Lucky thing amt a girl, or I'd be skeered TO
death!
Bein I'm a boy, duck my head an hold my
breath,
An am, oh, so sorry I'm a naughty boy, an
then
promise to be better an say my prayers
againl
Gran'ma tells me that's the only way to make
II right
When Teller has been wicked an sees things
at night
An SO, when other naughty boys would coax
me into sin,

me within,
An when they's pie for supper or cakes ats

Company.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light Safe; nothing could
be safer A few days ago a prominent gen
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and | take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
We have u complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

All things fulfill their purpose, low Or high
There Is no failure. Death can never mar
The least or greatest of the things that are.
Until our work is done we cannot die.
When it is done, il matters not how nigh
May be the nighttime that is never far,
That long ere sunset lights the evening star
Throws Its still shadow up into the sky.
Today shall end what yesterday begun;
What we are planning others yet may build;
The leaves may wither but the tree shall grow,
And though at last we leave our work undone
Our life will not the less be all fulilled;
Our work will all be even finished so.

Nothing unique or new and nothing rare.
Just daisies knapweed, wind among the thorns;
Some clouds to cross the blue old sky above;
Rain, winter fires, n useful hand, II heart,
The commoR glory of a woman's love.
Then, when my feet no longer tread old paths
Keep them from fouiing sweet things any
where-
Write one old epitaph in grace-lit words,
such things look fairer that he sojourned
here"
