With the spray on nay sodden head;
The mad waves howled, but i took nc

Nor recked of their raving dread.
All night IN the storm with chilling

When lo at the break OF day,
There, dancing al anchor with sails az rest
Ny ship III the harbor lay!
Ny beautiful ship! When the night was
black,
When the sky was the hue OF lead,
Der rock and reef, through the thunder

Oh, faltering one! when the dark hour

Deem not that all hope Is past,
But bark for the sound Of the Pilots calls
For your ship win come IN at last.

"Kitli Ga Yo," from its first three
words. and consists Of thirty-two syl.

as thirty one The exceeding brevity
is due 10 the national fondness for
conciseness Of phrase and for economy
Of expression in all forms Of art The
patriotic song is what the japanese
call "tanka." or a verse of five lines.
the first and third being of five, and
the others of seven syllahles. Below
is given the anthem in japanese, with

You know that fellow Hotling that has
that bad grass plain north OF here.
You know he came down with the fe-

everything since then. You know that
we have had all kinds Of prosperity
down here, but we haven't stopped TO
think OF tie people about Us that have
had hard luck. Since Hotl'ng's been
sick his wife has been standing by
him. They didn't have any money.

through with round of cheers.
Gentleman Ed came down from his
table and said:

"All right" said Halvorson. Wen

And SO the HOtlings came to know
what true charity was, and Hamar in

all a woman could for any man. II

Lord knows how we will ever square

AT this the woman set down the
bowl which she had in her hand and
went over 10 the bedside and put her
arms about the mans neck.
"Ive lived for you all my life, Jim,"
she said, land I'll die for you now.

Then. for the first time In bis life,
Gentleman Ed retreated. He crawled
away with hot flushes on his cheek
and something sticking in his threat.
He reloined his companions, and 10
their surprise ordered them 10 mount

Canton Markets

Last weeks prices prevail In the
Canton markets. Everything rules
steady with little prospect of a change.
The sugar trade is very light, COM
pared with the demand a week or
two ago, and there are prospects of
another reduction in the wholesale
price.
Tomatoes are almost out of market,
and the same is true Of peaches. Hand
picked apples are finding their way In
to the city and are selling at from 50
10 go cents a bushel direct to the peo-
pie. Dealers pay so cents for the
best. In some sections of the county
the apple crop is quite large, while
In others there is not a third of n
crop.
