in from the Houston Heights boulevard
crossing of the Southern Pacific on a fiat

Mr. George Griggs rendered the solo. Come
Unto Me"
The pastor chose for his text phrase
from first Timothy, Ill., 3. He began by
tracing the origin of the church from
Peters first confession of Christ, through
the ages where 1t has been the bulwarh
OF human faith. In striking nGures he

81 Shall BE Satlsiled.O

Not here, not here Not where the sparkling waters
Fade into hooking sands we draw near; O
Where In the wilderness each footstep falters-
~ shall be satisfied" bat oh, not herei
Not here-all dreams of bliss deceive us,
Where the worn spirit never gains its goal;
Where haunted ever by the thought that grieves US
Across us floods of bitter memory roll.
There 10 a land where every pulse Is thrilling
With raptures earths soJ0urners may not know,
Where Heavens repose the weary heart is stilling
And peacefully life's tme-tossed currents flow.
Far out Of sight, while sorrows still enfod us.
Lies the fair country where our hearts abide,
And of its bliss is naught more wondrous told us
Than these few words, " shall be satisfied"
Satisfied Satisfied The spirits yesrning
For sweet companonship with kindred minds
The silent love that here meets no returning,
The inspiration which no language finds.
Shall they be satisfied The souls vain longing
The aching void which nothing earthly fills?
Oh what desires upon my soul are thronging
As Hook upward to the heavenly hills
Thither my weak and weary steps are tending;
Savior and Lordl with thy frail child abide;
Guide me toward home, where all my WANDERING
ending.
then shall see thee, and be satisfied"

IRAN INGELow, the distinguished poet

was the daughter Of rich provincial
banker and was born in Boston, England,
in $780,. She early developed literary tai
emit, and in 1860 published her first book,
collection Of tales. In 1863 she published
her first volume Of poems. 1t was an in
slant success and gave the author high
rank among versifers of the day. Thence
forward until few years ago her pen was
constantly busy and her books number a
score or more-poetry, novels and tales for
young folks. She never reached the level
OF her early poetical work, however and
the poems by which she is remembered TO-
day are the Songs of Seven" etc, with
hardly an exception, to be found in her first
volume.

Rag Dolls.

There's queer old chest in the loft, dear,
That is locked with a rusty key;
remember your eyes grew soft, dear,
When you pointed it out to me.
How we smiled at the playthings all, dear,
With their marks of a baby fist
Till we came to the little rag doll, dear.
That your child lips had kissed.
1t WAS only little rag doll, dear,
So ugly and dirtied and brown.
But the sort that Its owner would call, dear,
The loveliest child in town.
And it whispered of days that are dead, dear,
Till tear splashed on your wrist.
When saw you bent down your head, dear,
AS that little rag doll you kissed.
And thought how we failed in our parts, dear
or dreams our childhood made;
Ofthe garrett chests in our hearts, dear,
Where our little rag dolls are laid.
We raise the lids when we must, dear,
With sigh for the love long missed,
For we find them covered with dust, dear,
Like the little rag doll you kissed.

The Prize Melon.

A negro stole a watch, went into a
farmers watermelon patch, "plugged''
a fat melon and concealed the watch
within it.
The next morning the owner of the
melons pulled wagon load of them
and sold them in the village.
During the day he was approached
by negro, who asked:
=" Eff you please, sub, is you got any
mo- er dem prize melons2"
"Prize melons2"
"Yes, suh-like do one what l
drawed de watch out?"
The innocent negro couldn't explain
the matter to the farmers satisfaction,
but he gave up the watch and got away
before they lynched him. = Atlanta

miles west Of Reno. The engine OF the west

riding on the baggage car six were killed
and nearly all the remainder were injured.

car and two Pullman coaches were badly
wrecked. Only two cars remained on the

SELECTED POETRY.
The Watchers.

Oh ye whose unrewarded eyes
Forever watch the oceans rim,
Your ships perchance meath friendlier skies
Rest far beyond your vision dim.
Perhaps in some sweet bay they wait,
Where bldes the primal, perfect day;
Where airs from springtime linger late
Or never perish quite away.
In some far-off, diviner land,
Where never garnered wealth grows old,
Safe harbored they may wait your hand,
To strike their sails and yield their gold.
