cause you ask me, and should /
pencil only idle, thoughtless
words, the golden moments that
have been given me are wasted
and your precious time wasted
also SHOULD you peruso them.
Then what shall ] write9 l can
not, like Jules Verne or Rider
Haggard, bring the imagination
into play, for it is not the myth
ical but the real in life that takes
hold on my mind. 1t is true the
study of mythology had quite q
facination for me. in my school
days, but / sometimes wish there
had never been any myths, for
even now that have reached the

myself peeping out of the port
hole expecting to see old Neptune,

his trident in his hand presiding

While reading few evenings
past the following paragraph
came under my view, and which
l think is worth reprinting: "a
reverent quiet manner should be
observed when in a church. 1t
is not good form to talk or
to introduce people while there.
Nothing is more inappropriate TO
occasion or place than talking,
whispering, giggling or exchang-
ing greetings when walking down
church aisle after service on
Sunday. 1t is proper TO wait
for all conversation until outside
of the building. One should re.
member that church.going is not
for social purposes"

A great many theories or ideas
are advanced about Heaven, what
it is or how we will enjoy it. But
the predominant thought with me
always is that supreme love will
abound there. There will be no
restraining Of the feelings, but
love to the fullest, widest, deep
est extent Of the word. Here re.
pulses and frigidity of manner are
so often met with that one longs
for a cline Of perpetual love and
bliss.

FREE HOMES BILL.
The House Takes Up Public Land
Legislation.

WASHINGTON, May Soon after the
House met today it went into Committee
of the Whole to consider the Free Homes
bill The bill provides free homesteads
on public lands for actual and bona fide
settlers and provides that the Govern
ment shall remunerate Indian tribes for
money due them on lands patented TO
settlers and pay any deficiency to agri-
cultural colleges if the annual sales of
public lands shall prove insufficient to
meet the payments. Mr.. Eddy of Min
nesota, in charge of the bill made the
opening argument in favor of the bill
MI Eddy said all party platforms had
dc clared in favor of the bill.
Mr. Flynn of Oklahoma, in advocating
the bill, said it was a mistake to sup
pose that it gave the settlers their homes
free. They would have to reside upon
their lands and cultivate them for five
years before securing title.
Mr.. Maddox of Georgia opposed the
bill. He said it would cost the Govern
ment $780, s59, 1854.
