A Beautiful Poem.

The following exquisite lines were written by
who represented Oregon in the upper branch
Of Congress third of a century ago. He los,
his life at Balls Bluff, in the ga liant defense of
his country. He is now on that waveless
shore" where the spirit of unrest which per
vades the human soul is at peace.
"Oh thou wave that leavest thy mothers breast,
Dost thou seek q star with thy swelling crest?
Dost thou leap from thy imprisoned depths below
In scorn of their calm and constant flow!
Or dost thou seek Il distant land.
To dis in murmurs upon the strand:"
"Canst thou tell some tale OF the pearl-lt deep
Where the wave-whemed mariner rocks in sleep!
Canst thou speak Of navies sunk in pride
Ere the roll Of their thunder in echo died!
Banners and trophies are floating free
In the shadowy depths Of that silent sea-"
" In vain would ask as thou rolest afar
OF banner or mariner or ship or star;
In vain would seek In thy stormy face.
Some tale of the sorrowing past to trace.
Thou art swelling high; thou art flashing free;
How vain are the questions ask of thee!'
- l too am wave on stormy sea;
too am a wave driven about like thee;
too am bound fer distant land,
To be lost and forge: ere I reach the strand;
For the land that see is waveless shore,
Aud they who once rea twill wander no more.

After they have been in business q
number of years and perhaps have
made failures and mistakes, they
learn better sense and become very
conscientious and trustworthy, but a
majority of these women who first
start out in business overreach them
selves. Women are born shoppers,
and it is hard for them to resist buying
anything that they think is pretty,
whether they have any use for it or
not. When they go to buy stock for a
store they pursue the same plan as
when they shopped for personal be-
longings, and when they buy from me
on credit l always feel ticklish until 1
see the checks for payment come in"
"But some women can never be
taught even the rudiments of busi-
ness" said the real estate broker.
"They will come in here with a house
to sell or exchange and take up half
hour of my time telling me why they
want to sell or why they wish to ex-
change, when don't care continen-
tai about it. Invariably they explain
at length why they are going to move,
and l have to listen to the longest
rigmaroles about the merest nothings.
I contend that it is not altogether
lack of training that makes them act
as they do; it is lack Of common
sense and common consideration, and
good many other common qualities
that they would do we'll to cultivate
1t wasn't lack of training that made
those women 60 back on their word
about that lease to-day. It was lack
of truth telling. The last thing last
night they had given their word that
they were going to lease that house,
and the first thing this morning they
were not going to lease it, and they
did not care what trouble or expense l
or my client or anybody else was put
to about it."
"That wasn't really bad faith" put
in the woman merchant. alt was
flippancy, changeableness, the same
quality that makes woman tell a
man she doesn't care for him when
she's ready to break her heart about
him, and the reverse, and that makes
her select a certain hat out of fifty
others to-day and send it back to-
morrow, and want to get it back
again the next day. It's just native
bit of femininity inherent in the SEX"
ats not inherent; it's cultivated"
said the real estate woman. "and it
costs the rest of us who haven't time
to cultivate it pretty penny. Of
course, Pm bound to always have wo-
men clients, and have as much
patience with them as I can, but
only say that if they did business in
a less womanly and more manly way,
it would be better all round"
