A RURsTED TRUST.

This view of the trust has recently
been ruthlessly assailed in our own thirty

agreed among them that except in the

be strictly prohibited. The first step

demands of the occasion, and the price
of the fluid rose accordingly to twenty
quarts for dollar.
Unhappily the Inhibition against water
in any form, aside from stock issues, was
disregarded. Either from an undue IA
handle or from sordid desire to milk
something or somebody beside the patient

as deeply impressed, with the sublime

asserted themselves, and what purported
to be strictly pure cows milk was being

like many another noble undertak king, the
trust In this case failed in the accom-
plishment of it's exalted purpose through
the irremediableT, stupidity of the con-

entire scheme was devised. Losing sight
of their duty to society, as well as to
themselves, Saltwater heads of families
did not hesitate to invest their funds In
milk at the lower rates made possible
by ruinous competition.
Pending some satisfactory adjustment
of the difficulty men and women, children
and cows in Saltwater will continue for
some. time longer to suffer from the evils
of overproduction of milk.

Come from behind the WALL .- 81.
Open the door. Oh, Progress,
Enough crowns and Kingdoms fall.
Open the door for China
A hundred years and more
Her own unwieldy body
Has barred her nations door.
Open the door, calls Progress.
Bright spirit of the times:
Open the door, Religion,
Thou queen of fairer chimes.
Open the door for China,
Let the Light of the World shine In
On all that live behind it,
OF cruelty and sin.
Open the door, Religion,
The faith of the cross and star
Calls on each Christian worker
To carry the light afar.
The tale of the ChiId was carried
To the land that lies in sin;
The star shone bright in glory
Binding the Gods of Tin:
And oft, in that land of murder.
The cross was borne in pain;
But China. all unheeding, 80
Slept on and all seemed vain. .>.-

To show the land their wonders,
To wake her heather heart.

Vainly the artists taught;
For China. blind and selfish.

Then Commerce tried to conquer
With ships and goods for trade.
But to the ports, fort-guarded,
No entrance could be made;
And Commerce turned, defeated,
From China's sullen shore.

And let her in right soon,
Before the cloudy morning
Grows to the stormy noon.
Open the door. oh, China,
All nations swell the cry.
Open thy door to Progress,
Or else in slumber die.
