What cause could there be for song?

saw a woman grinding ait a mill. 1t
was one of those quaint, old-fashioned
mills of two stones. She was grinding
away and her hungry eyes We're spark

last. Oh, you who have sent this
grain; you who denied yourselves that

is receiving many messages con-
hing the giving out of the precious
PAINS. DIR. j. H. Earpster, mission
kry at GunItur, sends this eloquent
Fstory:
"A VENERABLE HINDU'S SURPRISE
The donation of American maize was
a great benefaction. Ut was great in
conception and great in the reach of
its benehcence. A venerable Hindu,
watching the issue of the corn to the
poor, emaciated creatures, turning to
me, asked:i
WAS this grain sent out of pure
charity?"
'Out of pure charity l replied.
WAS lit given outright, without amy
pay for it?"
'sNot a damardi of pay for it; given
outright for the love of God and man. =
"Well, SIR" he said, Il am an old
man, but l have never seen anything
like this; have your
Il never did" l said, never any
thing quite like this"
The fact is, the sending of this corn
from America has more or less affected
the whole Hindu community-those
who have received no help at all as
we'll as those who have. AS the pelo-
ple have carried lit ON their heads all

her sore distress, it has been more
effective than thrice the value of th'
corn invested in native grain and dis
tributed would have been. The fac
that it was sent by people living
thousands of miles away, across thre

moved the people as thousand ser
mons would not have done. The trut

The Banynn Tree.

In the frulting season the banyan
tree is an arbor for the feathered crea-
tion, and a rude temple is often set
up under or close to its shade, at which
the wayfarer stops to cook meal more
frequently than to offer n prayer.
These sacred trees, with their grateful
shade, are common in every part of
India, and are confined to the tropical
zone. AS timber they are Of no value,
but gumlac Is obtained from their
juice, and the bark is used by the Hin
docs incidentally.

Men, creeds and nations die, but right lives on
Old customs fade and disappear from earth;
The ages vanish, and new epochs dawn;
New systems and races come to BIRTH
But through the wreck OF empires that have gone
There is no death to anything of worth.
The cause OF love, Of justice and OF truth
Continues onward in immortal youth.
There Is power In beauty to outlast
The death OF states, the ravages Of time.
Go read the records OF the distant past
Whose are the lives that seem the most sublimei
Not titled imbeces OF rank and caste,
Not conquerors who lived by war and crime,
But those who taught, who painted and who sung,
Whose fame and works remain forever young.
In ruins lie the temples OF the Greek,
And yet the muses. from their sacred hill
With their sweet songs and melodies still seek
Our hearts with the old power to touch and
thrill.

And Plato teaches, Homer charms us still.

To hear OF Gettysburg and Bunker Hill.
