Killed by Popularity.

When on his deathbed, Du Maurier de-
clared that popularity had killed him.
I believe he spoke the truth and that he
made better diagnosis Of hismalady than
the scientific one which the doctors give,
Under nervous strain such as StTriHby's''
creator endured no man may last long I'M
less his heart be of stone and his nerves of
steel.
Long years before, in the quest of fame
and fortune, the poor artist, as all poor
artists do, had woEa out his nervous sys-
tenn, as many man of genius has done,
before the unheeding world discovered
that he was verify of Gods elect.
And then, when the thunderburst of ap-
plause did come, the shock was too great
and it killed him
KILLED by popularityr' 1t sounds in
credible, doesn't it2
And yet popularity is what killed poor
Shelley and the tender voiced Keats and
latterly our own Eugene Field.
But, brother, TO have written such
things as these men wrote might make one
we'll content to die in the fullness OF one's
prime. Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

Sleep, my little one, sleepi

Soon in thy angels tender arms,
Closely sheltered from earths alarms,
Thou wilt awaken, baby mine,
Where all is mercy and love divine.
Sleep, my little one, sleepi
Sleep, my little one, sleepY
Narrow thy bod and deep.
have wept till my heart is dry,
But now I smile as I see thee lie
With small hands crossed in Deaths mutt
prayer,
Never to reach in the wild despair
Of hunger's anguish. All is o'eri
/ wept, but now l can weep no more.
Sleep, my little one, sleepi
Sleep, my little one, sleepl
Narrow thy bed and deep.
A little while l, too shall rest
Close by the side of my baby blest.
Safe is my babe-earth's anguish done
Safe, at the feet Of the Holy One.
Sleep, my little one, sleepl
