A Floral Calendar.

Hail and farewell,
Sweet blossom nlrtured in the snow,
That doth compel
Thy shape with its star-crystal ere they 90 !
Thou callest Spring
Back from the sealed sepulchre of EARTH
y ct diest witnessing her strange new birth
When the first robins sing
Ger broken she'll
Hail, maytiower. Farewell,
Hail and farewell,
Rich rose that greetest Summer with thy
lips
Thou mayst hut tell
Thy passion to the gossp-bee that dips
Deep in thy heart,
When for the Eden where no beauties perish
mystic Gardener culls thee, to cherish
In that forbidden part
Whence Adam fell.
Hail. rosebud-and farewell!
Hail and farewell,
Prlnce-prelate of the August wilderness,
That in the dell,
WITH gorgeous scarlet for thy hat and dress,
Nearest mass
Said for the soul of Summer by the birds.
Too proud to bend thy head at sacred words,
And slgnless letting pass
The monStrance bell!
Hail. cardinal! Farewell!
Hail and farewell
Gold-truncheon'd marshal of the red array
Thou canst not quel
The rout of leaves along the autumn way
That erst wore green.
Their sQuadrons fly before November's van ;
The victor wraps them all in shrouds of tan
In dingle and in dene,
On field and fell.
Hail, golden-rod Farewell!
Hail and farewell
All blessed saints of floral calendar!
Now in the cell
And catacomb of bitter days ye are,
But pagan frost ...
OF persecution shall not long prevail.
Winter and Death are Knights who bring
the grail
That we need last and most,
Sleeps quick ming spell.

The Enforcement of Prohibition,

The Reporter has always taken an un-
equivocal position in favor of the prohib-
itory law and of it's enforcement. One
feature of the law, the method provided
for the sale of liquors for medicinal, me-
chanical and manufacturing purposes, we
believe, and have held, could be improved
upon. But because we SO believe we do
not feel. and have not for moment felt that
the law should be disregarded. Taken as
a whole the law is right. The principle of
prohibition is true one for such giant
evil and unmitigated nuisance as the rum
traffic is. The law ought to be enforced as
other laws are. No valid argument can
be deduced against this proposition To
be sure rumsellers are persistent viola
tors of the law. This should cause great
er effort upon the part of custodians of the
law, officers whose duty it is to enforce it's
provisions. The practical question is,
how can the prohihitory law be enforced
In the county the sheriff and his deputies
can make violation of the law mighty diff
ticult if they desire to. The sheriff of
Somerset County and his deputies can sub
stantially stop the sale of liquor in Somer-
set towns if they are in earnest about it.
Selectmen of Somerset towns and consta-
bles can reduce the sale of Intoxicating
liquors to very small amount if they take
hold of it with vigor. A dozen leading
citizens, more or less, in any Somerset
town, who have the ''sand' and the pub
lie spirit to stand up and make a deter
mined fight against the evil can materially
reduce the volume of sales. Acts and not
words, spoken OF written, are what are
necessary. The fight when entered upon
must be long and continuous to insure
success. No halfway measures will be
effective, by whoever instituted. The in
fluence of all law abiding citizens needs to
be made manifest in support of prohi-
bition, the enforcement of which is of the
utmost Importance to the community and
every legitimate interest of the public.

Help me to bear each cross, and not repine
Grant me fresh courage every day,
Help me to do my work Away
Without complaint
o Lord, Thou knowest well how dark the
way,
Guide Thou my footsteps, lest they stray
Give me fresh faith for every hour,
Lest 1 should ever doubt Thy power,
And make complaint!
Give me a heart, o Lord, strong to endure,
Help me so keep it simple, pure;
Make me unselfsh, helpful, true
In every act, what'er l do,
And keep content!
Help me to do my woman's share,
Make me courageous, strong to bear
Sunshine or shadow in my life;
Sustain me in the daily strife
