THIS. BEAUTIFUL EARTH.

rhis beautiful aazth! aud this beautiful
And only one span to enjoy it.
And we in our folly exhaust it with strife;
We do not know how to employ it.
Our loves and our hates get SO painfully
mixed,
In spite of our noblest endeavor.
We live in q state of "between and be-
twixt,"
In state of tranquility, never.
Make haste and be happy, We mortals that
can;
Cease yearning for what cannot be.
Remember We have but the one little span;
Make it fruitful and joyous and free.
Small matter that others have more than
enough.
While We struggle and strive for mere
bread;
Dame Nature is chary of sweetmeats and
puff,
Plain fare makes high thinking, tits said
The sun and the air and the birds and the
trees,
And the glorious kingdom of flowers
The meanest of men is monarch of these;
The purest of bliss should be ours.
Then let us join hands for a happier clan,
Be our fortune whatever 1t may;
Life is al worst but a brief little span.
And at best little more than day.

that he had discovered the secret of pro-

written book in which this was fully de-
scribed, and presented it to the Cibo pope,
with the inscription, "Videbis dies Petrie ct

presented his book to three successive popes,
ending with Innocent of Genoa, adding that
ne took care on each occasion to substitute
new title page and dedication. "But,"
the cardinal was wont to add, cit is against

Both Sides Still Claim Victory in the
Senatorial Fight.
Harrisburg. Jan. l5.-Yostorday was
an off day with the legislators and poll
ticians gathered at the state capital to
take part in the big contest for United
States senator. The candidates and
their managers went home to spend
Sunday with their familea and will not
return until this even!nn, Chairman
Elkin, of the state Republican oemmit-
tee, is here in tho interest OF Senator
Quay and L. A, Van Valken6erE, Of
the Business Menn League, ID locking
after the anti-Quay foroos. The head
quarters of the two faotioas were clos
ed yesterday and no effort was made
by either side to make votes.
Mr.. Elkin said today he had every
reason to believe that Senator Quay
would be reelected Mr.. Van Valken-
berg said just the reverse. He claims
not break has been made In the
anti-Quay lines and predicts Mr.. Quay
will fall % short Of majority in the
house tomorrow.
Senator Quays third defeat will fol-
low on Wednesday," said Mr.. Van
Valkenberg, "when.on joint ballot there
will be majority against him too large
for him TO overcome. His managers
know that he cannot win, and are only
playing for position and looking for a
market"
Senator Quay's friends declare he is
SO confident of his reelection that he
will start next Thursday for months 8

On the surface the result of the sem
atorial fight Is very much In doubt, and
neither faction is over confident as to
how it will end.
