Think of your life as just begun
The past has shrfveled. and buried deep.
All yesterdays; there let them sleep.
Nor seek to summon back one ghost
OF that innumerable host.
Concern yourself with but to-day.
Woo it, and teach it to obey
Your will and wish. Since time began,
To-day has been the friend of man;
But in his blindness and his sorrow,
He looks to yesterday and tomorrow.
You. and to-day, a soul sublime.
And the great pregnant hour of time,
With God himself to bind the twain!

The MEMORIAL BRIDGE BILL.-ln-
ternal Revenue Collector Park Agnew
was at the Capitol, in Washington, on
Saturday, putting in good work Tor the
Memorial Bridge. There lie growing
sentiment among the members of Con-
gress 10 favor OF the bridge bill and its
friends are hopeful for favorable re-
port by the committee to which it was
referred. Ths advocates of the Me-
mortal Bridge, who have been hoping
for favorable action upon the project st
this session of Congress, are consider
ably concerned by the proposition en-
bodied in bill recently introduced in
the House to reopen the bridge design
competition and to submit to another
commission the question of superiority
between the approved design of Prot
Burr and "the design prepared by Geo.
Keller, of Hartford, Conn.," In the
light OF the history of the Memorial
Bddge project they are inclined to look
upon this measure as an effort to post
pone and defeat action upon the Me-
mortal Bridge plans.
The Washington board OF trade is en-
gagged in sending out to similar orgapi.
cations all over the country memorials
urging their cooperation in securing
action by Congress in regard to the
Memorial Bridge. The Presidents
message, the status OF the plans for the
bridge and other data upon the subject
are coneisely stated 10 circular letters
of appeal, in which the bridge project
Is Endorsed as in every way patriotic
and deserving of the support OF the en-
tire country. Boards of trade of the
country are asked to urge their mem
bers of Congress to support the pro-
iect and to take prompt measures to
make their aid effective, in view OF the
shortness of the present session.
