The Sermon of the Rose.

Wfllful we are in infrmity
or Childish questioning and discomfort.

Thou Truth the clearer for thy mysteryi
Make us to meet what is is to be
with rerVtd welcome, knowing it is sent
To serve in some way full excellent
Ihough we discern ii all belatedly.
me rosebuds, and the rose blooms, and the rose
Bows in the dews, and in its fullness, 10,
Is IN the lovers hand.-then on the breast
or her ne loves,-and there dies. And who knows
winch fate of all may undergo
Is fairest dearest, sweetest, loyeliest?
Nay we are children: we will not mature
A blessed gift must seem a theft; and tears
Must storm our eyes when but a joy appears
In drear disguise of sorrow; and how poor
we seem when we are richest,-Snost secure
Against all poverty the life long years
We yet must waste in childish doubts and fears
That in despite of reason still endured
Alas! the sermon of the rose we will
NOT wisely ponder: nor the sobs of grief
Luled into signs of rapture: nor the cry
OF fierce defiance that again is still.
Be patient-patient with frail belief
And stay 1t yet a little ere we die.
O opulent life of ours though dispossessed
OF treasure after treasured Youth most fair
Went first. but left its priceless coil of hair
Moaned over sleepess nights. kissed and caressed
through drip and blur of tears the tenderest
And next went Love-the ripe rose glowing there
Her very sister. 1t is here; but where
Is she, of all the world the first and best?
Ana yet how sweet the sweet earth after rain
How sweet the sunlight on the garden wall
across the roses-and how sweetly flows
The limpid yodel of the brook again!
And yet-and yet how sweeter after all
The smoldering sweetness of a dead red rose,

the wealthy Chieans live. Every one here
is now talking of hard times, and I am told
that many of the supposedly very wealthy
people are mortgaged to the eyes. However
that may be. they spend enormous amounts
OF money and live like very princes. / have
been in houses here which had upward of
fifty rooms, and which were furnished as
extensively as some of the palaces of Eu-
rope. Many of them have their billiard
rooms and bathrooms. They contain fine
paintings and statues and elegant furnish
ings. The curtains in one palace on the AL
emeda cost 100000 another house is a re-
production of the Alhambra in Spain, and a
third, situated in garden of five acres, has
a series OF beautiful halls, ending in
Moorish bathroom, with a marble pool in
the center of the floor big enough to form
the bath tub of an elephant. The most of
these immense houses are of one or two
stories the rooms running around patios or
gardens They have ceilings which are fif-
teen or more feet high, and they are fur
nished with more regard to striking effect
than to comfort. Much of the furniture is
plated with gold leaf, and the general style
Of the hangings is French. There are no

that kid-ne-oids cured them of back
ache, nervousness and sleeplessness.
They are right here and are very
grateful people, though we do give
YOU the evidence of some outside peo-

value Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. They
praise Kid-ne-oids all over the land.

here for 10 or Is years would tell YOU
that MOrrow's Kid-ne-oids are beyond

Something to Know.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best remedy for restor-
ing the tired out nervous system to Il
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone TO the nerve centers in
the stomach, gently stimulates the
liver and kidneys, and aids these or
gans in throwing off Impurities in the
blood. Electric Bitters improves the
appetite. aids digestion, and is pro-
nounced by those who have tried it as
the very best blood purifier and nerve
tonic. Try it. Sold for 80 cents or

Cornell men are very much tickled
over the announcement made at New
Haven and Cambridge in the matter OF
the proposed race. The insinuations
that Cornell is anxious to get aut of row.
ing the race were heartily laughed at by
Coach Courtney and Captain Colson.
1T is true, said Captain Colson, 'thsa
our crew has suffered some big losses
this year, and that our prospects are not
as rosy as they might be; still l have
confidence that the Courtney stroke will
win as it has always won. Yale must
have a fine crew from all reports, but
that is the kind of crew we like to row
against. II we did not want to row, as
the reports charge us. you can Just bet
we would never have consented in the
first place to rowing two races in two
different places week apart"
An agreement has been signed in Van
couver, B. c., by Gaudaur's representa-.
tive to row K. M. johnson for purse OF
", 800 and sculling championship of the
world. The race will be rowed in Van
couver harbor on July l.
