1
NAL Session.
The executive board of the National Fed
Grafton of Clubs is still in session at the
Arlington, considering routine business.
The report of Miss Kelly of Pennsylvania
on industrial problems was received; also
one from Mrs. Brockway of the art COM
mttee. outlining the proposed plans of work
to be placed before the biennial meeting in
June.
The place of holding this convention is
causing considerable discussion. The
choice has narrowed down to two cities
Boston and Los Angeles. 1t was thought
this morning that Los Angeles had Won the
day, but later the matter was reconsidered.
1t seems probable, however, that the con-
vention will go to the California city.

Hon. David Meekison is we'll known.
not only in his own State, but through
out America. He began his political
career by serving four consecutive
terms as Mayor of the town in which
he lives, during which time he became
widely known as the founder of the
Meekison Bank of Napoleon, Ohio. He
was elected to the Fifty-fifth Congress
by very large majority, and is the ac-
knowledged leader Of his party in his
section of the State.
Only one flaw married the otherwise
complete success of this rising states
man. Catarrh with its insidious APP
proach and tenacious grasp, was his
only unconquered foe. For thirty
years he waged unsuccessful warfare
against this personal enemy. At last
Pe-ru-na came to the rescue, and he
dictated the following letter to DR..
Hartman as the result:
"Ihave used several bottles of Peru
ma and feel greatly benefited thereby
from my catarrh of the head. l feel
encouraged to believe that if l use it a

INTO THE VAST FOREVER.

What may we carry to the vast forever?
The mystic stair
Admits not gold. nor whatsoever
OF pomp or pride we wear
These pass not there.
Nor may we take within the sacred portal
Our books and art
Into the life immortal
No idol of the heart;
With these we part
We may not carry to the land supernal
Our boosted creeds.
These drop and disappear like blossoms.
And all our deeds
Are poor as weeds.
But character and conscience shall attend
us,
The genial flow
OF sympathizing hearts. and sense stupen-

OF happiness or woe

The pearly door
For all the sanctified and holy-hearted

For evermore!
Upward from the vast forever
Naked we come.
Lord, clothe US with Thy robe, that we
may never
Be put to fear or shame
Who own Thy name.
Ask we the Pleiades or grand Orion
To lend a ray?
While journeying to the hill of Zion
Thou art the light. the way,
Nor need We stray.
From Thee the glory of the life eternal
Forever beamsi
With Thee our days shall glide in low ST.

Beyond these fading dreams
These failing streams
