TAMPERING WITH TPIT1 :
HER MISSION

HER MISSION.
When days are warm
I can't forget
Thy swaying form,
My Violet
Or when a chill
Is in the air,
My life is nil
SO you're not there
You crush the ice
And mix the dope
That doth suffice
To bring one hope;
You bring the slip
Pers for my feet,
And on your lip
Lurk kisses sweet.
You have win
Some, sleesome way
A sort Of sim
Some Where's your.pay,s
Expression turks
Your eyes within,
Which always works
To swipe my tin.
In boyhood rash
/ ne'er can guess
How went my cash,
Unless, unless,
Your spirit, ev-
En- then did know
Way to retrieve
My hayward dough.
But yet feel
A rare delight
To see you kneel
In garb OF night
Before the CRATE,
With fingers numb,
And coax the lat
Ent blaze to come.
Let others WOO
The helpless maid
In bonnets new
And silks displayed.
You you were born
To mission higher
To rise each morn
And light my fire.

tions were elaborate. Over the center
of the table was large floral bell of
red flowers and pendant therefrom
and attached to the four corners were
streamers of red ribbon. Ferns and
greenhouse plants were also used in
the table decoration with pleasing ef-
feet. From this table there was served
a lap lunch of two courses by the as
sistants of Mr.. Helm. The menu was
Olives Sailed Almonds

The ice cream was in the form OF
individual moulds in the shape OF a

Claret Punch was served during the
evening in booth at the south of the
hall.
There were large number OF in

party to be in attendance from Mar

entertainment given in that city in
honor of Miss Alberta Converse the
number was diminished.
During the intervals between the
dances the company were entertained
by the efforts OF a mandolin and

cUMuLATIYE EKIpENcE.

The difference between the work
ings of Protection and the results oi
Free-Trade is vividly set forth in q
dispatch which comes from Camden,
NJ This dispatch states that while
-four years ago this winter a Demo
cratic Tariff had caused so much dis
tress in the Kensington mill district
that 1t was necessary to dispense S10,-
00O In charity to keep the families of
the idle nill hands from starving,
this year, under Republican Tariff,
every mill in Kensington is working
overtime" and the people are able
mot only to care for themselves, but
to contribute out of their surplus
earnings 81, 900 for the relief of the
Texas flood sufferers"
There is nothing striking about this
particular report, perhaps, The
Kensington mill district is only one
of large class. Reports of a SINH
lar nature, varying only in the de-
tails of prosperity, have been re-
ceived from all over the country.
Yet it is just as we'll to add this case
to the thousands of others which
testify to the beneficent workings of
a Protective Tariff. There is some
thing in cumulative evidence.

A PRETTY PARTY.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. G. Woodin En-
tertain Many Guests.

Mr.. and Mrs. G. G. Woodin enter
tanned large company of guests
Tuesday evening at the Kalbaeh, or
Armory Hall at one of the prettiest
entertainments that has ever graced
the social circles of the city. Mr.. and
Mrs. Woodin have a reputation for
their hospitality and lavish entertain
ment, but all former efforts at pleas
ing and caring for their guests were
out done by the pa ty of Tuesday
evening
The hall had been elaborately dec
Grated for the occasion. There were
curtains aud draperies at all of the
windows of the hall and drapery and
bunting hung in generous festoous
upon all the walls. There were cosy
corners and hooks arranged with
draperies, canopies and sofa pillows.
In the center of the hall hung sus-
pended mammoth Japanese shade,
while nearly all the electric lights in
the room were shaded by being placed
in Japanese lanterns, Palms and
potted plants were every where in
profusion. A fire screen here and
there completed the adornment of the
room and the effect was beautiful and
highly pleasing.
The guests were received by Mr..
and Mrs. Woodin and by nine O'Clock
there we're almost one hundred and
fifty guests in the hall. The Schmitts
orchestra made its presence known
with its best music and the large COM
pany was soon at home upon the floor
stepping to the time of the deux
temps or the waltz. The entertain
ment was perfect and could not have
been improved upon. The company
was remarkable for the number of
handsome gowns worn by the ladies.
Gentlemen were in evening dress and
the scene presented by the brilliant
company is better imagined than dis
cribed.
The ladies wore handsome made
gowns for the occasion. Mrs. Woodin
wearing beautiful creation of pink
silk crepe trimmed with goldlace in
elaborate design and profusion of
pink rose buds. Mrs. Gibbs wore a
magnificent gown of blue brocade
satin trimmed with real lace and blue
chiffon ornaments.
At the north end of the hall there
was a partition made by Japanese
screens. Behind this protection Mr..

prepared the Refreshments of the

tables stood revealed. The decora-

A CHANCE r0 ENLIST

A recent dispatch from Washington
says that on January 2s, naval Of
ficer will open headquarters in Des
Moines and remain there until Feb.
1, for the purpose of recruiting for
the United States navy, and particu-
larly for recruiting naval apprentices.
The apprentice system of the navy
is but little known in the interior of
our country and it is therefore not
appreciated as means of occupation
for boys. The recruiting officer will
enroll boys from 16 to 21 years of age
as apprentices. They draw SO per
month from the date of their muster
in and are also furnished with cloth
ing, rations and medical attendance.
They have the advantage of good
naval schools, wherein thorough
education is given them, sufficient
for all purposes of gunnery, naviga-
ton and other matters of interest and
value. As seamen they are eligible
for all appointments as petit and war
rant officers, positions that pay from
$40 to $50 per month, with allowances
for rations and clothing. Several
hundred boys in Iowa might avail
themselves of this opportunity to Sc
cure employment Frugal, thrifty
boys can save practically all of their
salary and they can be advanced to
better paying positions by paying
strict attention to their duties.

repeated with his dying lips. 1t means
a great deal of humanity and Chris
tiauity when a man, worth twenty
millions, who may crafty every whim
or desire, will turn to the simple
prayer of our Lord as the last and
greatest thing of life. That Mr.. Ar
