THE PURPOSE IN LIFE.

Do the tears that arise in the heat of the strife
Seem to hide from your vision the purpose OF
life2
Do the myriad cares of laborious days
Leave the doubt in your heart whether living
them pays?
Danish doubt ami plod on. Life was given to
AS part Of creations mysterious plan.
Each must carry what burdens the years may
bestow
Until burdens and bearer alike are laid low.
And the end of the road is a couch with pail,
And it may be the couch is the end of it all,
Dr it may be the spirit, released from the clod,
bhares the freedom of time with the infinite
God.
lis but folly to dig into moss covered creeds.
Let your life be a record of generous deeds
Not the wisest may fathom futurity's plan,
But the weakest may live as becometh man.

The facts about President Miller's griev-

college, he sent his daughter about 20
years Old who was his secretary, to take a
course in bookkeeping at Poughkeepsje.

of her identity with the negro race she
informed President Gaines of the facts.
Immediately, says President Miller. the
agreement of admission to Eastman college
was cancelled by the college authorities

her people here, and after a fruitless cor
respondence, covering some weeks, was
sent as student of stenography and type
