THE BLUE JUNIATA.

Wild TOv'd an Indian girl.
BRIGHT Alfarata-
Where sweeps the waters
Or the blue Juniata.
Swift as the anteiOp5
TkrO' the forests going.
Loose were her jetty locks
In waVy tTesses flowing.
Gay was the mountain song
OF bright Alfarata.
Where sweep the waters
OF the blue Juniata.
StrCn- and true my arrows are
In my painted CULVER;
Swift goes my light canoe
AdOwn the rapid river
Bold is my warrior good
The love of Alfarata;
Proud waves his snowy plume
Along the Juniata.
Soft and low she speaks TO me
And then his war cry sounding.
Rings his voice in thunder loud
From height to height TeSOunding.
So sang ths Indian girl,
Bright Alfarata,
Where sweep the waters
or the blue Juniata.
Fieetin- years have borne away,
Tl-a voice OF AlfaTata
Still sweeps the river on,
Blue Juniata.

THE SHOPPERS RECESSIONAL

Fates of the far-hung shopping line,
Look down on US and rend the gloom;
Spare not our coin, but oh, incline
Our memory to all those whom
We owe the smallest Christmas debt
lest we forget. lest We forget.
our sisters. uncles. cousins aunts
Likewise our good wife's kith and Kin
VIII drive US crazy with their taunts,
VIII force US to some wilder sin.
And make our forehead drip cold sweat
If we forget, if we forget.
We stagger on. we strive to think;
BY one and one the bundles grow
The sun goes down. the pale stars blink;
we think we've bought for all we know
Yet is our soul by fears beset,
Lest we forget. lest we forget.
We feel. we know, It's sure as fate,
when santa Claus turns loose his game
Wen get a scarf or paper weight
That bears a second cousins name
a second cousin-Oh the thought.
Whom we forgot whom we forgot.

A century's Commercial Growth.


New York World: Very suggestive
indeed OF the enormous material pro-
gress of the century which has now
only month more to run are the fg-
ures furnished by Mr.. o. P. Austin.
chief Of the United States bureau Of
statistics. In the North America Re-
view. sE
at Its beginning GSoO the total value
of all the commodities interchnnged by
the nations was estimated at $500, OOV.-
900. At Its end It Is estimated that It
viii be fully $4,000, 100000.
In 1904 the population OF the world.
az estimated by Matte run, was &c.
100000: to-day It Is about 1900. 100000.
So that while In the nineteenth century
the worlds population has increased by
l3J per cent, Its international exchanges
have Increased by 1888 per cent.
The bulk Of this enormous Increase In
commerce between the nations dates Of
course, from the appearance OF the first
steam railroad In 1925. the first ocean
steamship in 1919. the first overland tel
eBraph In 1874. and the first submarine
telegraph In 1851. And as the fastest
rate OF Increase In commerce was re-
corded between 1890 and 1860, We may
conclude that the telegraph was the
most stimulativc agency OF all.
The share OF the United States In the
century's expansion of international
trade has been magnificent. 1t Is sum-
med up In the statement that our I'M
ports are about ten times and our ex-
ports about twenty times as large and
valuable In 1900 as they were In 1900.

that he would be very much pleased II
Mr.. Camden would forward him his
senatorial shoes. About two weeks be-
fore the election last month Mr.. CAM
den wrote to Mr.. Elkins that he believ-
ed he would trouble the senator for the
return OF the shoes.
II am very sorry" replied Mr.. Ell
kins, "but think would rather keep
them. They seem to fl me. and I find
them very comfortable"
On the day after election Senator Ell
