His Art.


He cannot handle figures,
He cannot shovel coal.
He cannot write in numbers
That stir the readers soul.
He cannot run an engine,
lie cannot WELD n saw;
He has no gift for preaching
Or laying down the law.
He cannot paint n picture,
He's not mn architect,
Nor Is he detective
Whose forte Is to detect:
In truth he's not n sculptor,
He never sculpcd n stroke.
He couldn't drive an OK team,
Nor fasten on yoke.
He's not lion tanner.
He cannot trim n sail;
He's not Il politician.
He never broke Il jail.
Ho never earned dollar,
Ills father pays his debts,
But oh he Is n master
AT rolling cigarettes.

lied Sunday, Feb. 5, of bronchitis. Rev
Rich he'd services at their home on An

Only a broken ca-ket-
Tho jewel was borne away,
To shine In the realms of glory,
To sparkle in endless day.
Only a broken oAsket,
Lies buried beneath the sod,
Impearled with the dews of memory,
And watched by the eye of God.
Only a broken casket,
The shrine of q new. born soul
Caught up on its snow-white pinions
Where ages eternal roll;
Caught up through the golden portals
Where saints and angels stand,
With welcome to those who enter
That beautiful summerland.
Gone is our happy sunbeam,
We saw it in tears depart;
Gone is our tender lily,
The pride of our home and heart;
Gone is our gentle love.bird.
His carol on earth is DER;
Though lonely at eve We listen
He answers our call no more.
Alb! but our faith is winging
Its flight through the clear blue sky,
Where sorrow can never onter,
And pleasure can never die.
There We shall find our lost one
Not in tho silent tomb,
Not in a broken casket,
But clothed in immortal bloom.

STEAD PRAISES AN AMERICAN.
Hollis, Secretary Of The Peace Delegation, Com
plimenied on His Strength.

Writing OF the peace conference w.
I. Stead says in the London Daily
News: "The American delegation has
been one of the most useful elements in
the parliament. II the old traditional
policy OF America had been construed
with such severity as to forbid the
presence of American delegates at the
international gathering the world
would have been the loser. Andrew ID.
White. its chief, held himself much In
the background. but did not spare eff
fort privately to bring about a good
understanding between the representa-
tives of the powers.
but the man of the American dele
CATION who left much the deepest mark
uron the conference and its work was
the American lawyer, Mr.. Hollis secre-
tayy of the delegation. Mr.. Hollis was
comparatively unknown before the con-
ference. but II had hardly come together
before his energy and his determina-
tioh compelled all his colleagues to feel
that he was enc of the strong men of
the conference. Owirg to his appoint
ment on the comite d'examen he was
able to play a much more conspicuous
role than any other of the American
delegations, and he made the very best
OF this unique opportunity.
Andrew u. White, United States am
bassador at Berlin, and head of the
American delegation, remarked to a
correspondent:
"I believe a vast majority of our
people will welcome our arbitration
treaty and see in 1t a serviceable plan
from the outset. and a germ from
which a more complete system will be
evolved by future conferences. As
time progresses without doubt refer
ences to the tribunal will become in
creasingly natural and normal. and
thus we may hope to have every ad-
vantage claimed for obligatory arbl-
tration without its overwhelming dis
advantages. But Ii could hardly be
expected that We should be willing to
accept the requirement to sweep away
at once, here and now, the policy of
MonroelsnL
''If any modification is ever made OF
that policy 1t must be made by the
United States after II has had the full
est opportunity to study the subject in
all it's bearings. Such change cannot
be made distinctly for another pur-
pose, and 1t is important that there
rhould be no doubt on this point"
