REST.

BY JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY.
Let us rest ourselves bit,
Worry? Wave your hand to it;
Kiss your iingCr-tipS and smile
Ii farewell Il little while.
Weary of the weary way
We have come since Yesterday,
Let II lrcL us not, i'll dread
OF the weary way ahead.
While we yet look down-not up
TO seek out the buttercup
And the daisy, where they wave
DER the green home OF the grave.
Let us launch us smoothly on
ListlcsS pillows of the lawn.
And drift out across the main
CT our childish dreams again.
Voyage off, beneath the trees,
Ger the fields enchanted seas,
Where the lilies are our sails,
And our scagullS, nlghtlngaleS.
Where no wilder storm shall beat
Than the wind that waves the wheat
And no tempeStS burst above
The old laughs we used to love.
Lose all troubles gain release,
Lauguor and exceeding peace,
Cruising idly DER the vast
Calm mid ocean of the past.
Let us rest ourselves q bit.
Worry, wave your hand TO it
Kiss your flnger-tips and smile
II farewell a little while.

kissing Of friends arriving on the
steamships until their luggage is in
spected by the custom house officials.
The reasons given are that it greatly

sengers are enabled to smuggle contra
band goods to their friends. People
have been known to transfer valuable
diamonds to the mouths of friends un-
der pretense of oscillation and thereby
swindle the Dingley bill out of its 10

\ SWISS physician has demonstrated
by subjects56 years old that the stom-
ach is about as useless as the vermi-
form appendix. The woman had suf-
fered long from a tumor in hers AMI
when he cut into her he found it so di-
seased that he took the entire stomach
out, united the alimentary passages,
which healed at once, and soon had
her up. Since the operation she has
gained three pounds and according TO
appearances is all right. This may be
good news to those who suffer with
stomach troubles, but useless or not but
few will willingly give up the organ, ev-
en- if it is really nothing more than a
