THE SETTING SUN.

In stately grandeur goes the setting gun
With still increasing glories down the
west.
His measured course across the heavens
Is run,
And newborn glories mark his place of
Like great spreading sea of flame and
fire
Broken in waves of color and rich hue.
The emerald's green. the blue of the
Orange and pearl and purple woven
through.
Like a great chart of some Hesperian sea,
Where lie the tabled islands of the blest,
Beyond In all their splendid imagery,
What tongue or artists pencil can ex-
press7
Great shafts OF light, that In columns rise,
And break In minarets and flashing
domes
That fill with newborn hope and glad sur
prise,
As doth some dream that In the night
time comes.
And as my eyes dwell on the wondrous
scene,
My thoughts reach out beyond the chang
ing show,
Beyond the feeting. unsubstantial sheen
That soon shall into ashen shadows grow,
, Where Hes, mid splendors fadeless that
endure.
The city of our God and His redeemed;
Where is no change but such as shall in
sure
greater glory than erstwhile was
dreamed.
So, too, the goal now reached, and closed
the race,
The Christian goes In triumph to his res.
| The smile of God transflgures his pale face,
The peace OF God abounds within his
breast,
The setting sun becomes rising sun,
Before which shadows fee, the new days
dawn,
| A day which shall in endless cycles run,
| With glory crowned, forever on and on.

Things That Might BE aettered.

This may be the age of steel, steal,
progress and reform, but we are not
improving IN some lines with com
mendable speed. The eyelets IN our
shoes are round, but we still wear
fat strings. The loops on our sum-
mer trousers are placed so low that
the waistband protrudes above the
belt The strap on the neckband of
our shirt is long enough to let our
tie slip over the top of the collar.
Our hats are made for bullet-headed
men; those with long heads must
have new purchase stretched out OF
shape to obtain fit. The only kind
of bachelors buttons that are not ut
terly worthless grow wild in the fields
of the United States. The country
youths used TO carry them in their
pockets to divine their success with
their sweethearts.-N. Y. Press.

Painters Mixed in Their Flag.

The cleaning of the frescoes at
Westminster abbey has called atten-
ton to the fact that in the picture of
the pilgrim fathers there the good
ship Msyfower is flying the union flag
that first came into existence in 1900,
says London newspaper. This an
achronism is not uncommon in naval
pictures. In the collection of all paint
ings of sea fights at the British Royal
United Service institution there are
many pictures of battles fought be-
fore 1900 in which the British ships fly
the union flag of to-day. The explana-
ton of this anticipation of history is
that some years ago, when the older
pictures were cleaned and restored,
the restorer corrected" the flags by
painting in st. Patrick's red cross over
the white st. Andrews cross of Scot
land.-London Mail.

Lion Versus Buffalo.

When Purvis and Clark were explor-
ing in Africa, north of the Zambesi,
they sew large lion stalking a buff
falo bull and calf. In his native
wilds the lion is no particular hero,
while the African buffalo is one of
the most dangerous of the wild
things. So Purvis and Clark watched.
Suddenly the bull charged, but the
lion sprang to one side for an in
slant, then leaped for the calf. Be
fore the beast could strike, however,
the buffalo bull had turned again and
charged. The hon, on the defensive,
struck at his sssailant, but the blow
had no effect on the enraged creature.
One of the long, cruel horns caught
the lion in the side and the creature,
weighing more than 400 pounds, was
thrown ten feet into the air,-Chicago

THE LITTLE CHILD.
Why He Was Selected by Christ to
Exemplify to the worId the
True Life.

II has been said that "Jesus Christ
discovered the child" And this is true
in its best sense. He left it for boast
full psychologists" of later age to
ascertain by means of "child study"
how many babies in 100 put their right
thumbs in their mouths and how many
prefer their left, great toes; but Jesus
Christ saw in the child those primal
requisites OF the spiritual nature upon
which the happiness and the moral life
of the world alike rest.
The one great question of all re-
ligions had been: What kind of life
on earth is most approved by the heav-
emily powers? 1t was significantly
when His disciples had been striving
about questions of precedence that He
took little child and set him in the
midst of them" aud said: "The great
est in the kingdom of Heaven is the one
most like this"
1t was reversal of the popular con-
ception in a sentence. Mans concep-
ton of God has been of one impassiSe e,
stern, self-conscious of His infinite
projections. The exposition Of Jesus
taught that God was sympathetic, for
giving, seH-forgetfuli in His aims Each
age has certain virtues that are in a
measure native to it. Those native to
childhood, said the Master, are SUI
preme. BY Heavens measurements he
is not greatest" who can best prove,
but he who most readily believes; not
he who can systematic moral the
DRY, but he who is most responsive to
moral intuitions; not he who can sur
mount obstacles, but he who is most
sweetly conscious Of and glad in his
dependence.
No age ever needed that lesson more
than this; no people more than we.
Our popular heroes are all of the
strenuous" kind. In finance they are
multi-millionaires; in state, imperial
councillors, men of blood and iron.
Even in religion we have not only
abandoned the cloister; we have for
saken the closet. We worship only the
big, the powerful, the triumphant. We
must have great" revivals, or give up.
That Kingdom of Heaven which com
eth not by observation is "too Slow
for our day. We must count our mem
oers every year; and our faith rises or
falls with the figures of the census.
But, after all, our own experience
only goes to show that Jesus was
right, as He always is. The nobbest
manhood always carries a heart Of
childhood in its breast. The most
Christlike church has still somethinp
OF the early simplicity in iis faith and
ways; while the diyinest soul, the one
most fitted for the kingdom of God on
earth or in Heaven, believes because 1t
must; obeys, as matter of gracious
instinct, and loves because It is life to
love. 1t is of such souls the Kingdom
of Heaven is built up; and the best
thing we can do for the hingdom our
selves is to cherish such spirit in our
Aearts.-Chicago Interior.

Folly of an EngIIsh Girl.

Devonshire, England, is to lose an
interesting monument of the folly OF
a wealthy man. The earl of Eyre
mont, who pursued so picturesque q
career in the SOS of the last century,
resolved TO erect a mansion at Sill
vertou, near Exeter, which should be
an example to the world of what his
genius and riches could produce In
the way of beauty and luxury. He
was his own architect, and so pro-
fuse were his ideas that he put M
about 200 marble manteIpieces, had
the doorlnobs of the principal rooms
fashioned of amber and the bath cut
out of solid piece of marble. He
spent a quarter Of a million on the
place, and even then it was incom-
plete. It is, in fact, incomplete To
this day, and now it is to be sold a.
