Our dream came true, and we own-we

And it was. for oh. love dwelt, you know,
In that little back room, top floor.

And settle us down and sup.
And sing our lays to the good old days
When we could not settle up.

And our hearts were sometimes sore
When our landlord sent for his past due

Like a fleeing year it seems, my dear
But 1 know it was long ago,
For your tresses rare are now more fair
Than they Were at the time-you know
Crhe months my brain in wild, deep

From the little back room. top floor.
The gods have brought the gifts We
sought,
For we own our vine and roof;
sweet days
When the muses. held aloof
And my thoughts fleet ship makes many
To a far off. golden shore.
While l steal the themes for all my

National Wool Grovcr..

Washington. Dec. 15.-In response to
a call recently issued by Secretary W.
G.. Markham, of the National Wool
growers Association of the United
States. a meeting was held this after
noon in the Ebbitt house for the pur-
pose OF considering the memorial to
congress adopted by the Farmers Ma
tional congress, which held its session
at Indianapolis in November. The
memorial asks that the Dingley tariff
bill be amended so that prohibitory
duties shall be imposed on wooden rags,
shoddy. etc, also that wool and wooden
manufactures shall not remain in Gus
tom warehouses more than ten days.
President William Lawrence of Belle

meeting. The meeting adjourned until
tomorrow morning. There was small
attendance owing to the fact that a
good many members had not yet ar
rived in the city.

HER ALDRl.
One View of the Shorthand of His
tory and Chronology.


Nineteenth Century: Heraldry can
make the world a glorified world. 1t is
quarry where every one may hew and
sea where every one may dip his oar,
and If heraldry became again a fine art
she could be once more the bride of
history, while art with her tumult of en-
thusiasm alone can deck her fitt:ngly.
Without art heraldry is an uncouth and
dead thing; with art she liveth for every
one and is truly science.

stimulates historic Imagination. She

the wall and the glorious record of our

ress and upward climbing in the long

Ignorance and intolerance
That heraldry is the shorthand of his
tory and chronology seems to be now
allowed, and heraldry in a sense should
be the application of the fine arts of
