GODS LITTLE GIRL.

And reached our arms tn the winter days.

And our little girl we called the dear
One pleasant eve when the sun had divped
Out of our sight, and the stars had slipped
Silently back to their wont ed ways,
she turned her face with q wistful gaze
Up to the blue Of the archine skies;
We knew by the look in her pretty eyes
And the smile that frightened her small
face so.

The Vexed Jerusalem.

A great many people wonder why
Palestine. which is no bigger than the
state OF Vermont, and Jerusalem. the
city limits Of which could be encom
passed by the Central park in New
York, should remain such a problem
to Europe and assume such import
ance in dealing with the affairs OF the
east. A distinguished but rathe rash
writer in England not long ago pro-
posed that Palestine he made the in
ternational park Of the Christian ma
tons. He assumed that if England.
the United States, Germany, France
and Italy decreed that it should
henceforth be held in trust as a free
domain for the Christian nations the
profile n would be settled. But he
overlooked the 177.O0o,OOO Moham-
medans to whom it is az much of q
sacred place as it Ii to the Christians,
and he did not take into account the
100000 Greek religionists who also
have their shrines there and their
special traditions. The fac. is, secta
rinn religions have reached in Jeru
salem curious kind Of enforced
compromise or equilibrium. After
killing each other through several
centuries for the possession Of the
Holy City the warning sects have
agreed to tolerate each other there at
the point Of the bayonet, with the i'm.
piled understanding that the status
qu' shall not be disturbed. That il
the reason why Jerusalem presents
a curious spectacle Of Jews, Chris.
tians and Mohammedans gathering
about the same sacred spots with sim
liar sentiments, but entirely unlike
formulas. That is why German
emperor who is an avowed Christian
submits to oil the mummery OF the
caliphs and respects tho authority Of
tho Mohammedan and that ia why
England heslsates to enforce her own
views against the millions of Islam
who are her own subjects. Jerusa-

Over the fret of our discomfort,
Over the i'll that we never meant,
Over the scars of our self-denial,
Over the strength that conquered
trial,
Now in the end of the flying year,
Year that tomorrow will not be here.
. iietly final, the prompter calls,
Over it swiftly the curtain falls.
Over the crowds and the solitudes,
Over orr shifting, hurrying moods,
Over the hearths where bright flames
leap,
Over the cribs whore the babies sleep,
Over the clamor, over the strife,
Over the pageantry Of If,
New in the end Of the flying year,
Year that tomorrow will not be here,
Swiftly and surely, from starry wall-,
Silently downward the curtain falls
