MOTHERS BOYS.

Yes, know there are stains on my carpet,
The traces of small muddy boots,
And see your fair tapestry glowing,
All spotless, with blossoms and fruits.
And know my walls are dsigured
With prints of small fingers and hands.
And that your own household most truly
In immaculate purity stands,
And know that my parlor is Uttered
With many old treasures and toys,
While your own is in daintiest order,
Unframed by the presence of boys.
And know that my room is invaded
quite boldly all hours OF the day,
While you sit in yours quite unmolested
And dream the soft quiet away,
Yes, know there are four little bedsides
Where must stand watchful each night
While you go out in your carriage
And flash in your dresses so bright
Now, think I'm II neat little woman,
like my house orderly, too,
And Pm fond of all dainty belongings,
Yet would not change places with you.
No, keep your fair home with its order,
1t freedom from bother and noise,
And keep your own fanciful leisure
But give me my four splendid boys

Found But Once in IA While
by J, r. COOPER.

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
When life flies by in q song,
But the man worth while is the one
who will smile
When everything goes wrong.
For the test of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years,
And the smile that is worth the praise
of earth
Is the smile that shines through tears.
1t is easy enough to be prudent
When nothing tempts you to stray,
When without or within no voice of sin
Is Turing your mind away.
But it's only a negative virtue,
Until it is tried by fire,
And the life that is worth the honor Of
earth
Is the one that resists desire.
BY the cynics, the sad, the fallen,
Who had no strength for the strife.
The worlds highway is numbered to-
day
They make up the items of life.
But the virtue that conquers passion,
And the sorrow that hides in a
smile
1t is these that are worth the homage OF
earth,
For we find them but once in while.

His Explanations Do Not Go.

planning to the Skagway republicans

The Skagway republicans who are loyal
to John G. Price have during Mr..
Heid's stay in Skagway made it very
tropical for him. Mr.. Held, who is no
politician, has been trying to explain
and the more he tries the deeper in the
mud he goes Mr.. Held is one of those
misguided mortals who has expressed
the opinion that the newspapers do not
amount to much anyway. No doubt Mr..
Held will still keep on explaining but
it is doubtful if the Alaskan republic
cans will take kindly to his explana-
tions. juneau Dispatch.

MORGAN ON THE CANAL BILL
Hawaii and Porto Rico FOrtify it,
Should be Neutral Way.

! Washington, jan Ex-senator Morgan
as chairman of the senate committee or
! interoceanic canals, today presented {
written report upon the Nicaraguan q
nal bill The following extracts from
the report indicate its general purport
I'VE have reached a point in the dis
cussion of the question- of a ship canal
through the IsthmUs of Darien where
the necessity for the canal and its ad-
,vantages to our country is no longer de-
bated in congress or among the people.
With this western connection between
the two great oceans there will be es-
tabHshed the shortest and most direct
line of navigation between the seaports
of every nation and those of every other
nation in the world in passing from
ocean to ocean. T ne ship canal viii open
a line that is practically straight around
the earth and along parallels Of latitude
within temperate zones, where the seas
are comparatively quiet and are refresh
ed with the ever-prevaiiing trade winds
As a provision for the naval
and military defenses of our country,
whether insular or continental, this ca
nal is indispensable, and the closer it's
location is made to our states on the Gulf
of Mexico the more efficient will be its
protection to our coasts on the Atlantic
and Pacific $-* Pearl Harbor in
Hawaii and the harbor of San Juan in
Puerto Rico are the true military de-
fenses of the canal against attack by
European or Asiatic powers, and they
give a more secure protection to its east
ern and western outlets than any for
tress, however strong, that can be To-
Gated at or near its connection with the
sea. Measured by the income
ofthe Suez canal, at a corresponding cost,
the Nicaragua canal should yield, with
equivalent rates OF tolls, at least z per
cent on $40 900, coo. 1t is too
severe a tax upon credulity to ask the
adoption of the precarious water supply
at Panama in preference to the two grand
lakes Ofthe Nicaragua route, one of which
is 100 miles long by As miles broad and
affords nearly p miles of fresh water
navigation for the largest ships, as part
of the canal route, and together they
supply more than ten times the water
needed to supply the canal line from
Lake Nicaragua to both oceans We owe
it to ourselves and to the whole world
that whatever canal we shall build and
control to the Isthmus of Darien shall be
as Open free and neutral to all nations
as its corresponding gateway, the Suez
canal"
