The King of England.

In that eclipse OF noon when Joy was hushed.
Like the birds song beneath unnatural night.
And Terror's football in the darkness crushed
The rose imperial OF our delight,
And man turned to greet him passing there
With phantom heralds challenging renown
And silent thobhing drums.
saw the King or England. hale and fair
Ride out with great train through London
town.
Unarmed he rode, but I'm his ruddy shield
The lions bore the dfnt of many a lance
And up and down his mantle's azure field
Were strewn the lilies plucked in famous
France.
Before him went with banner floating wide
The yeoman breed that served his honor best,
And mixed with these his knights OF noble
blood.
But in the place of pride
His admirals in billowy lines abreast
Conveyed him close like galleons on the flood
Full of strength unbroken showed his face
And his brow calm with youths unclouded
But round his lips were lines of tenderer grace
Such as no hand but Times hath drawn.
Surely he knew his glory had no part
In dull decay. unto Death must bend
Yet surely too of lengthening shadows
dreamed
With sunset In his heart
So brief his beauty now. near the end,
And now old and immortal seemed
o King of men that die. tho we must fail
Sons OF thy dust that shall inherit thee;
o King OF men that lie. tho must fail
Thy life Is breathed from thy triumphant sea
o men that ssrvest men by right of birth,
Our hearts content thy heart shall also keen
Thou. too. with Us shalt one day lay thee
In our dear native earth.
Full sure the King OF England, while we sIeep
Forever rides abroad through London town.

novel outgrowths of the incessant cam
paign against vice and crime in the city

a committee of fifty of the most prominent

a the street walking. so prevalent
among certain class OF women in the

The plan of appointing the women's COM
mittee originated with the board, one of
whose members said to-day: There are
no less than 200 girls who make a practice
of frequentfng the streets In company with
young men who are perfect strangers to
them, and we will try to stop the prac-
tice.''
The women will request the girls to re-
main off the streets, and IL they repeat the
offense the police will arrest them The

The greatest misfortune of the present
generation is that wives and mothers are
so frequently untitled for the duties of life
and domestic employment by reason OF
broken down health and overtaxed systems.
The duties of women of all ages are really
more wearing than the troubles met with
by men. Social: household and often bust
ness cares press upon women very heavily.
In this way the delicate nerves and sensi-
tive organs become deranged. suffering
sues and life becomes a burden that many
carry to the grave.
For the special weaknesses TO which
women so often fall victims medical science
has provided Paine's Celery Compound.
This famed medicine has specific powers for
correcting the disorders OF the female or
ganism; IL maintains health. gives strength.

body the elasticity OF girlhood. No other
medicine can so quickly Danish and perma-
nently cure painful and obdurate feminine

WOMAN'S BOARD OF MISSIONS.
A Great Work Done by Women of the
Disciples Body.

Disciples BODY.
The Christian Womans Board of Mis-
sions is 5000 ahead of last year in it's
financial receipts, and last year was the
largest in its history. It's receipts at the
moment exceed $4,000. and no doubt is
felt that the stint Of $4,000, set for this
year, will be reached by Sept 80. when the
books close. The features of the year
have been the opening of one mission sta
ton in India and the raising of money to
open a second one there; the purchase Of
a site for Boys Orphanage and Industrial
School at Bayamon, Porto Rico; the pur-
chase of a site at Monterey, Mex for mis-
sion, chapel and printing house; the erec-
ton of two schoolhouses In the mountains
of Kentucky at a cost of $4,000 each; and
the sending this month Of six additional
missionaries to India.
This board, composed of women in the
Christian or Disciples body, has two hun
dred missionaries in home and foreign
fields, five hundred children in orphanages,
three university Bible lectureships in the
Universities of Michigan, Virginia and
Kansas, and several thousand students in
mission schools. In these Bible lecture
ships in universities these Christian women
led and 1t is counted one of the great adj
vances of recent times. The great work
of the coming year to be undertaken by
this board is the purchase and equipment
of a mission plant in Calcutta, India, as a
memorial of the late president of the board.

HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS
FRANCIS T. ROOTS DISCUSSES THE
GROWTH OF SAVINGS INSTITUTIONS.
Their influence Is Educational, He
Thinks, In that Small Deposits Are
Sought-Hotel Notes.

1.-The development of our savings institu-
ton is one that interests me intensely" re-
marked Francis T. Roots last night, who
is at the head of trust company at Con-
nersville. "Our savings institution is prov
ing to be a great benefit to the people of
the community" he continued. Young
children and young men especially are saw
ing money now that never saved 1t before.
The general impression prevails that in the
commercial banks their small deposits are
not wanted. but where they are educated
up to the fact that dollar deposit is just
as welcome as thousand dollars they ex-
ercise great freedom and confidence in
coming in and making small deposits"

are that Hanover will have a swift, though
rather light, eleven. Among the new play
ers, those doing the best work are Master

dian, will not play this fall, and his old
position as full back will probably be filled
by Wallace. A practice game will be
