Whereto our labor and our bitter sweat!

The fame we strike.--our own tears Quench

The white that we would purify we set
Our grimy print upon. And We forget
Thy ways and thoughts are not ours. and
bark
Toward what we take to be some heavenly
mark,
And find we serve the devil to abct.
Then do Thou blind us. that we may not see
The measure Of our own futilify.

How through our labor. whstEo end II meet

AMUSE N ENTS.
Rose Maiden.

Attention is called to the two fash
light photographs of the Rose Mai
dem chorus and soloists. as it was
given by Mr.. Cain in Louisville. Ky.
little over one year ago. These attrac-
tive pictures are now on exhibition. one
in Sherburne x Dailey's show window.
and the other in Fowler x Hamlen's.
The chorus and soIoists together num-
Der about 40. This beautiful cantata
will be given in Augusta City hall,
Tuesday evening, Feb. 9Th.
MIR Cain says the Augusta chorus
outclasses the Louisville chorus. both
in excellence and numbers. The Au-
gusta chorus Will number about 100
voices. In Louisville Mr.. Cain pre-
scented the work with amateur soloists.
but here we are to have the best pro
fessional talent to be found. viz:
Madame Evta kileski. soprano; Mrs
Eva l.. Andrews. contralto: Mr.. War
rem G. Philbrook. tenor: Mr.. l.. B. Cain
who will both sing the baratone role
and direct the chorus.
1t takes about one hour and a half
to give the cantata. but the manage
ment of the Augusta chorus is anxious
TO give the patrons their moneys worth
SO have planned preliminary pro-
gramme, which will be announced at
an early date. Either programme alone
will be worth the price of admission.
The Augusta people can depend upon
hearing a concert that has seldom. if
ever. been outclassed by any local or
ganiZation.
Tickets are selling rapidly. and par
ties from Waterville. Hallowen. Gar
diner. Winthrop and Readfied are
planning to attend this performance.
The ladies Of the chorus Will dress ap-
propriate to the name. and corps of
young ladies will be in evidence at
City hall. Feb. 9Th, 10 make the people
