WHEN WE WE'RE BOYS.

Written for the RgcoRD.i
How many years have passed and gone,
1t seems though but a day,
Since childhood with It's happy hours.
Sped merrily away.
Then all was tinged with joy and light,
Our minds were free from care.
No saddened thought brought grief or giool
To NIL Us with dispair.
with gieeful voice and bounding step.
We scampered on to school.
To add our figures. read our books
And say the golden rule.
Those were the happiest moments. that
Our life has ever known;
The future seemed pleasant drear,
The world was all our own.
Twas then we tried so many times.
To play our boyish pranks.
Upon the old Professor. whom
We thought the worst of crsnks.
We never knew Just how II was.
He always found US out,
That wise. old man was not deceived.
He never had a doubt.
Which boy 1t was. who placed the tscks.
Upon his wooden chair.
Or who II was that threw the mud
That landed In his hair.
And when the winter came around.
with SNOW so deep and white.
We'd resurect our little sIeds.
To coast from morn NH night
And on the track. as smooth az glass.
We took oor jolly aide.
We never thought of bruise or sprBin.
When going down the slide.
Oh how we'd play with bat and bali
And run the baser round.
Until old Fnriner skinnint came
And piouGhed NJ all our ground
We ne'r forgot that mean old man.
And wished that he wss dead,
He was no use upon the earth.
The boys had often said.
But We got even. when wc sowed
His neId with thistle SEED.
We laughed sioud TO hear him swear
Revenge was sweet indeed.
For boys were then a. boys are now.
We played nh set OF sun.
And only thought the days too short.
For all our noise aud fun.
Those times Of happy ehiidbood's rairth.
Oft in our dreams We see
And days no~ gone, nor TO return.
Live but In memory.

SEALED ORDERS.

Our life is like ship that sails some day
To distant waters. leagues and leagues away
Not knowing what command to do and dare
Awaits her when her eager keel is there.
Birth, love and death are ports we leave behind
Borne on by rolling wave and rushing wind;
Bearing message with unbroken seal,
Whose meaning fain we would at once reveal.
1t may not be. But ever and anon
Some order, sealed at first, we ope and con:
So learn what next, SO east or westward fly,
And ne'er again that port of Birth espy.
Where lies our course in vain we seek to know
Go FORTH the Spirit says, and forth we go;
Enough that, wheresoever we may fare,
Alike the sunshine and the storm we share.
But still not knowing. still with orders sealed
Our track shall lie across the heavenly field;
Yet there, as here, though dim the distant way
Our stregth shall be according to our day.
The sea is His. He made it, and His grace
Turks in it's widest wave, its deepest place
Our truest knowledge is that He is wise;
What is our knowledge to His sweet surprise

Let judgment run down as waters,
and righteousness as a mighty
stream.-Amos Y, q.
The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
and the children's teeth are set On
edge ?-Ezekiel IS, 2.
All the labor of man is for his
mouth, and yet the appetite is not

Now therefore so, and | will be

what thou shalt say.-Exodus 4, II.
An evil man seeketh only rebel
lion; therefore a cruel messenger
shall be sent against him.-Prov.
xvii, IL.
And they shall be my people and
| will be their God: Aud [ will give
them one heart, and one way, that
they may fear me forever, for the
good of them, and of their children

THE NEXT HOUSE.

That the next House of Represen-
tatiyes will be Democratic there is no
longer much doubt. The evidence is
all on that side of the contention
The Democrats have by far the best
situation in the Congressional cam
paign. The fact cannot be disguised
that the Republicans are in desperate
straig hts. They not only fear losing
members, but are apprehensiye Of the
results that will follow should the
Republicans be in the minority in the
coming Congress.
Unless President Mckinley has a
Congress in harmony with the admin
istration developments will follow
that will sink the party in 1900.
The desperate efforts of the Repub-
licans to raise money to carry on the
campaign has furnished evidence of
their weakness. And with all their
money, eztortcd from poor depart
ment clerks and contributed by rich
corporations, they find the work OF
interesting voters an uphill work.
Every available Republican speak
er, or rather, word-monger, is being
called upon to assist his party in the
campaign. The Administration 5
I support and influence is given to the
party, and every Republican office
! holder is asked to use his influence in
behalf of the party.
| Against this army Of Republican
officials the Democrats presenta most
favorable showing.
That this is an off-year disheartens
Republicans and brings cheer to The
Democratic fold. Republicans say
they fear the stay-at-home vote vii
reduce their strength.
The Democrats predict gain O
two Representatives in New England
four in Illinois, three in Indiana, ont
each in Alabama, Iowa, Maryland

Texas and West Virginie, four eacl
in New York and Pennsylvania, tw<

ulists in the present House, woul'

or three more than a majority.
