nIbEY,s POEM ON. LAWTos.

James Whitcomb Rilev's poem, written on
the occasion of General Henry w. Lawton's
body lying in state in the capital of Indiana,
is entitled 1.-The Home Voyage"
].
Bear with us, o Great Captain, IL our pride
Shows equal measure with your grief's ex-
cess
In greeting you in this your hopelessness
TO countermand our vanity or hide
Your stern displeasnre that we thus had
tried rH
To praise you, knowing praise was your
distress.
But this homecoming swells our hearts no
Because for love of iiome you proudly died.
Lo, then: The cable, fathonis meath the
That shapes your course, is eloquent of you;
The old flag too, at halfmast overhead
We doubt not that its gale.kissed ripples
feel @
A prouder sense of red, and white, and
The stars-ah, God were they interpreted
In strange lands were your latest honors
In strange wilds, with strange dangers all
beset;
With rain, like tears, the face of day was
wet,
As rang the ambushed foeman's fateful
gun
And as you felt your final duty done.
We feel that glory thrills our spirit yet.
When, at tine front, in swiftest death, you
met
The patriots doom and best reward in one.
| And so the tumut of that island war,
| At last, for you, is stilled forevermore--
Its scenes of blood blend white rs ocean
foam .
| On our rapt vision as you sight afar
The sails of peace and from that alien
| shore
The proud ship bears you on your voyage
home.
Or rough or smooth the wave. or lowering
| day
Or starlit sky--you hold, by native right,
Your high tranquility-tbe silent might
| of the true hero. So you led the way
| 10 victory through stormiest battle fray,
Because your followers, high above the
fight,
Heard your souls lightest whisper bid them
smite
For God and man, and space to kneel and
| pray.
And thus YOU cross the seas into your own
Beloved land, conveyed with honors meet,
Saluted as your homes first heritage
Nor salutation from your state alone.
But all the states, gathered IN mighty fleet,
Dip colors as you move to anchorage.

NURSERY COOKERY
DIET IN DISEASE.
BY Christine Terhune Herricls.


BY Christine Terhune Herricls.
Continued from last weekly ,.
The disea ses OF which mention has
peen made thus far are comparatively
simple and the diet is easily regulated,
When child falls prey to more serious
complaints, the matter Of food assumes
greater gravity. In nearly every attack
OF Illness the gastric organs are more or
less affected. and this condition raises
the question of diet to high degree OF
Importance. Suppose. for instance, that
a child Is suffering from cold, which,
even in its lightest form is state Of
congestion. The old proverb, Feed
cold and you will have fever to starve."
should be born in mind. The diet should
be light, nourishing, easily digested.
Rich foods Of any sort should be avoided
and care taken to keep the bowels open.
Cream soups and broths, arrow root jel-
ly. blanc mango, oysters, atewed or
creamed, and other delicate dishes on
the same order are better than heavy
meat soups, roasts, and the usual line Of
vegetables. Scraped beef or mutton may
oe given in small quantities, but the
kinds Of food old-fashioned people called
hearty" should be cut out from the bill
of fare. If there is any tendency to ir-
ritahility of the throat, nuts of every
kind, including cocoanut, should be
barred. Fried foods must be absolutely
excluded.
If the child has q feverish cold and
seems disinrlined to food, do not force
him to eat. The fasting. in moderation
will do him no harm, and an aversion to
eating Is often Natures indication that
the innamed organs of the body, sympa-
thetically deranged. need rest. Keep up
the invalid's strength by milk, either
pure or mixed with lime water or Vichy.

not, let him drink It cold and take this

Giving niemberHhip Right TO Control Own
church Property.
The fourth quarterly conference of
ST. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church
was held Friday night when tho follow
ing pream BILE and resolution were unani-
mnusly adopted;
Whereas, It is self-evident that the
Methodist Episcopal Church has been
and is powerful agency for good in all
lands; and
Whereas, The influence obtained by
tho Church is largely due to the faith
full adherence by its leaders and law
makers tn the plan Of the Divine
Master in calling his people together
and working in harmony for the good
of humanity; land
Whereas, We believe that it is not
necessary or intended in this en-
lightened age that the church should
| invoke state aid to prevent local self
government in its temporal affairs /;
and.
"Whereas, Legislative enactment in
| the State of Delaware. has deprived the
membership of our churches Of the
right to control their own properties !;
and
Whereas, Believing that such legis-
latiou is pernicious and that immediate
remedy should be applied, be it
Resolved, That oui presiding elder,
our pastor, and the lay delegate Of this
church be requested to present the
foregoing facts to the conferences that
are about to assemble in our city, and
endeavor to secure and present a
memorial to the coming General Cou-
ference praying that section 30l, chap
ter 8, of the rules for church govern
ment be amended 80 as to remedy the
evil, and that the confidence and cor.
diality that has existed between the
ministry and laiety be maintained.

he was mender Of umbrellas, Miss
Wright accosted him.
Mister il you will bring a new um.
