ANNIE LAURIE

Jennie Bodge Johnson in Lewiston Journal Across the sea a fragment, Blown with the spray and mist, Shoreward from rosy distances Where shade and shine hold tryst,
 An old song set fin colorings
 Of gold and amethyst. A ship on the horizon Where misty curtains cling, Lightly to clearer levels Her sails of violet swing
 The schooner nearing the harbor,
 Listen! The sailors sing: "Maxwelton braes are bonnie Where early fa's the day, Twas there sweet Annie Laurie Gave me her promise true.
 o, the rainbow lights of boyhood
 Kindle my skies anew. "Maxwefton braes are bonnie," How sweet that old refrain, The promise of morning Break into bloom again,
 And on tTae lowly roof hear
 The music of the rain. 'Maxwelton braes are bonnie," There's mother at the door, The cattle down the dusky lane Are coming as of yore,
 And mounted on the pasture bars,
 I swing and sing once more. "Maxwelton braes are bonnie," o, bonnie maid of mine, 'Tbro all the mists of distance Again tine dark eyes shine
 The world is full of music.
 And living seems divine! Across the seat fragment, Blown with the spray and mist, Shoreward from rosy distances, .- Where shade and shine hold tryst,
 A vision and memory,
 In gold and amethyst.

SHORT STORIES
 OF THE DAY
IIia IYide Rnnge oommIttee

Just after the speaker had made up his committees, writes a correspondent of the New York Tribune a member from the middle west approached him one day and, shaking him genially by the hand, said:
 ''I want to thank you, MT. Speaker; am on q fine committee"
 MT. Henderson smiled broadly He was receiving more complaints than thanks in those days, and words of commendation were dear to him. 'T glad you are satisfied,'' he replied q like to please the boys when I can"
 The member laughed grimly: "Of course you know what committee I refer to-" he said, 'ithe committee of the whole, but wouldn't mind If you could find me a chair on some other committee, too; I think I could do the work of both.'
 The dry humor which prompted this in- eident pleased the speaker immensely ana his colleague did not ask in vain.
