Henrietta: Your sympathy seems TO be mine
Such tokens as yours new courage gives,
And will wear throughout all time;
And as the years glide swiftly by
And memOry's dim page you may turn,
hope you'll linger in fond recollection
For a friend whom in sorrow you found.
And may the Christ remember you ever
When Jewels he'll set in his crown.
And let sunshine come into your pathway
To cheer you life's dreary way.

Midnight of Life.

o. judge not against me. kind stranger,
Your friendship fain would retain.
My faith in the Child of the Manager"
Grows stronger with each passing day.
Though cloud now hangs Ger my future
And a blight has come into my life.
Yet down in the bleak. glimmering future
A ray of bright sunshine l see
For I'll tear from their grasp sweet liberty,
Like the Norman Of old on the sea;
And I'll dance on the ocean Of trouble,
With my loved ones so happy I'll be.
LIES dream has been thus rudely shaken
By the hands of this cold, cruel world,
And though friends my course have forsaken,
My God will join in my cause.
And bring to my soul sweet salvation.
This freedom so dear to us all.
I listen to the voice of Inspiration,
For its voice seems so mellow and low
Like beautiful dream from the angels,
AS it falls around my pillow at night,
And sweet visions of wife and babies
Finds echo in my heart day and night.

you that sound business management

Coming from Mr.. Nontress. who
is a sugar planter in lbervillc, aud
pretty well represents the scuti-
ments of the Democrats from the
sugar districts this means the first
gun in the campaign for governor
in 1904, and it is directed against
one man. Judge Blanchard is gen

almost to himself. Many of the
Democratic sugar planters are op.
posed to him, aud some say they
will never consent to his nomlna.
ton This move is to make the
way clear for Governor Heard,
whose administration has given
satisfaction, and whom the sugar
planters would infinitely prefer to
Judge Blanchard, should he care
to make the race. The governo,
of course, is not party to this

The Lafayette Gazette has quite
u lengthy article entitled, "The
Public School for the Poor" The
public schools are no more for the
poor than they are for the rich.
The doctrine is pernicious one.
The public schools should BIO the
best in the land, well supported
and maintained and patroniled by
all. The system is not predicated
upon the needs of poverty. 1t
represents one of the great fuuc.
tons Of the State. Enlightened
communities enjoying high and
extraordinary public school privi-
leges, must resent the suggestion
that the public schools are
for the poor alone. This idea is
to the whole theory OF
the public school system and it
must not be entertained. - Baton
