A Hymn for the Absent

The poem given below was written
by an Englishman during the last Brit
ish campaign in Egypt, and has been
published in a recent London maya
zine.
Eternal Father, mighty Lord,
Who rul st the nations by thy word,
Guard and defend our warrior band
And o er them stretch the sheltering
hand;
In thy good time make wars to cease
And send our loved ones home in peace,
O Christ, who in our grief tax st part,
Sustain and soothe each aching heart;
Thou knowest our hours Of anxious
dread,
Each tear in midnight vigil shed;
Bid thou our sad forebodings cease,
And send our loved ones home in peace.
Eternal Spirit, Heavenly Love,
Send down thy wisdom from above,
Our ruler council guide Alright
And bless our armies in the fight;
To each poor captive grant release,
And send our loved ones home in peace.
0 Trinity of love and power,
Our brethren in danger hour,
From treach rous foe, from fever
breath,
Preserve them, Lord of life and death
Cause Afric's tribes their strife tC
cease
And bring our loved ones home in peace.

[ hold it truth, " it'll him who sings
To one sweet harp in divers tones,
That one may rise on stepping stones
OF our dead selves to higher things.
Tennyson.
So much we miss,
If love is weak; so much we gain.
If love is strong, God thinks no pain
Too sharp or lasting to ordain
To teach us this.
Helen Hunt Jackson.
Be careful to go strewing in and out
Thy way with coed deeds, lest it come
about
That when thou shalt depart,
No low, lamenting tongue be found to

The world is poorer since thou vents

Thy house of clay, some dusk shall
spread about
When death unlocKs the door and lets

Reflections of a Bachelor.

New York Press
The ideal husband is the man who
hasn't got married yet.
Marrying drunkard TO reform him
is like frying fish to make beefstake out
of it.
When a woman is dead sure that she
has man she is never dead sure that
she wants him.
A woman is never so much afraid she
may lose a mans love as she is that
some other woman may gain it.
No matter how much of a past man
has had, there are always some women
who can teach him more than he knew
before

And though l may get it

Those eggs are laid
And they will arise
In time to make good

And as with me
So with others, to
The extent of
Several billions who
Will never go forth
To set their pegs
Until they have laid
Their million of eggs;
And those eggs hatch,
And they multiply
By millions of times

Since Noah let loose

To make you fellows bleed
Easy and free,
And save wear and tear on us.

And pull of your coats for the fight

FRIDAY, JANUARY 4. 1901.

1t ia 1901, now. Time in its fight has
completed another eysle and the world
has rolled into a new century, All that
was OF tho nineteenth century is now
history, and during last monthr-the
last one in the old century-the papers,
magazines aud various periodicals have
printed columns and pages OF matter re-
viewing the achievements and history
of the human race during the course OF
the hundred years we saw come to a
close at II o'clock last Monday night.
With one accord we are told that the
pineteenth was the greatest century in
the worlds history. Greatest, because
in no like period, nor in all the preced-
ing centuries, has man made such pro-
gress in the material things which have
increased his enlightenment and enjoy
ment. The scientists have worked won
defs by heirinventions with steam and
electricity; in chemistry, medicine and
surgery they have accomplished what In
former ages would have been considered
miracles; the modern art of printing has
made the dissemination Of knowledge
universal, until the best literature and
newspapers can be had by all. The
philosophers, unlike those Of ancient
times who worked in the abstract and
too often found themselves in maze OF
absurd and contradictory theories have
given as something tangible. Evolution
gives us history and tells us how de-
yelopment has been made in the uni
verse, and in plant and animal life, from
man down to the minutest organism.
Though we have found out what has oc-
CURED and have been able to follow the
process of development, the finite mind
has yet to solve the problem OF origina-
ton, Christianity has spread its benign
influence, and the world is better for it.
But better yet, man-made. creeds and
dogmatic sectarianism are ceasing to be
dominant factors in the religion. As
man has advanced in knowledge Of the
material world his ideas regarding the
spiritual have become more liberal, and
altruism forbids the conception of a
punative God. Yet, the world is a long
way from the promised millennium The
civilized nations are not yet done with
war, nor are all commercial relations
carried on in spirit OF brotherly love.
But, truly, he would be a sorry pessimist
who would deny the great good OF the
worlds progress during the century we
have just left, and could see no bright
future in the century we have just
entered.
