DR.. REXFORD
Finds Himself in an Uncon=
genial Crowd,
And Berates Christians As Old
Women and School Children.

Rev. E. E. Rexford, of Columbus, the
Unitarian Minister only minister
in Columbus, who favored Sunday open
ing of the State Fair-who in no sense
represents the Christian sentiment OF
the State-has shown his zeal for Sab
bath desecration by sneering at the
Christian women and Christian young
people of the State. This should be
beneath any Christian gentleman.
There are no persons in the church
who are as Jealous Christians or
who do as much, according to their
opportunities, for Christianity and
humanity, as the women of the
church; and there are no purer more
honest servants of the>Master of the
church, than the members of the Young
Peoples Societies. He who sneers q
them because they protest against the
ldesecration of the Sabbath, has not th'
spirit of the Master. But the insinua
ton of DIR. Rexfnrd is misleading. Tn,
Ipetitions and protests that have gon
up against the Sunday opening of tn
Fair, have been first from the Stat
Sunday league of Christian ministers
and next from all classes of Christians
not including children. We have see
two of these papers signed, that includ
ed the names of two or three hundreds
and the names were largely of adul
males, and but of very few who are nc
adults.
DIR. Rexford finds himself classed b
his own action with unbelievers- an
those who wish to destroy the Sabbath
and his defense is sneer at Christians
THAT is unworthy of any Christian mini
tier.
j He cannot find in all the life {
Christ, an instance where he had an
sneer or word of disrespect for th
young, or for any women who presume
to present a petition to even the higl
est throne.

fashionable to be Grandmother

The example of Queen alexandra in
taking daily drives with one or more of
her grandchildren is, it is said, work.
ing revolution among fashionable
grandmothers of the realm; and young
sters are receiving unwonted attention
from their granddames. Women whose
time is devoted to golf, bicycling and
clubs have heretofore had little oppor-
tunity to cultivate the acquaintance of
their grand children and many of the
young looking ones have refused to
wear the title. But this is changed
now and to be grandmother is to be
in vogue.-Exchange.

Under the sun.

The men who have gone before Y
Have sung the songs we sing:
The words of our clamorous chorus.
They were heard of the ancient king.
The chords Of the Tyre that thrill US,
They were struck in the years gone by,
And the arrows Of death that kill US
Are found where our fathers lie
The vanity sung Of the Preacher
Is vanity still today;
The moan OF the stricken creature
Has rung in the woods Away
But the songs are worth resinSinc
With the change OF no single note,
And the spoken words ringing
As they rang in the years remote
There is no new road to follow, Love!
Nor need there ever be,
For the old, with its hill and hollow, Loyel
Is enough for you and me.

The Song of the singer.

Day long upon the dreaming hills
One watched the idle hours fade by,
And had no thought Of other thing
Than waving grass and summer sky.
And all the wilding scents and sounds
The lavishhcartcd season brought
lie made his own and prisoned them
Within the little songs he wrought.
While he was singing, in the town.
his busy brethren bought and sold
And got them place and circumstance,
And all the pride ana pomp OF gold.
But when the night came with the stars,
and OH her hills her silence laid,
He. honeward turning, bore with him
Naueht save the careless songs he made.
40 P=odigalt" his brothers cried.
..And have YOU done no better thing?
And is it thus you spend your day
To dream in sunshine and to singG'
But he. remembering those still hours
The dream had made SO eloquent
The waving grass, the summer sky.
The purple hillside-smiled, content.

Horace calls no more to me.
Homer in the dust heap lies;

In the laughter OF her eyes.

There is endless. precious lore,
Such as / ne'er knew before
in the music OF her voice.
Breathe of hyssop stepped in wine,
Breath Of violets and furze.
Wildwood roses, Grecian myrrhs--
All these perfumes do combine
In that maiden breath OF hers.
Nay. ] look not at the skies.
Nor the sun that hiilward slips,
For the day lives or IL dies

In the music of her lips,

And vet they're not belligerents,
Line. From the German of Lnmiter.

Thought after thought We thronsinS rise,
Like spring doves nom the startled wood
Bearing like them your sacrifice
OF music unto God!
And shall those thoughts OF Joy and love
Come back again no TO me
Returning like the patriarch's dave,
Wing-weary from the eternal sea
To bear within my longing arms
The promise-bough of kindlier skies.
Plucked from the green immortal palms
Which shade the bowers OF Paradise?
Child OF the sea, the mountain stream
From its dark cavern huTries on,
Cesseless by night and morp'.g's beam.
By evenings star and noeutids sun
Until at last it sinks to rest
Oerwearied in the waiting sea,
And means upon its mothers breast
So turns my soul to Thee;
