He looked out at her and replied:
First, tell me truly, have you ever lied
Not cen about your age? Down there

Did you nser drop a tear or two or
three
When people wished to known
Demurely looking downward, she,
In pleading tones and soft,
Said: No; not cen about my age have

Though questioned by old women Oft
Fer told a single little lie."
He gazed upon her face awhile,
Her beauty made him heave a sigh;
Then, with q tender smile,
He said: you've fibbed to me just
But pass in. anyhow"

Oh, the Summer night
Has a smile OF light,
And she sits on a sapphire throne:
While the sweet winds load her
with garlands or odor,
From the bud to the rose o'er-blowni
But the Autumn night
Has a piercing sight
And a step both strong and free;
And voice for wonder.
Like the wrath of the thunder.
When he shouts to the stormy seal
And the winter night
Is all cold and white,
And she singeth song OF pain:
Till the wild bee hummeth,
And the warm Spring cometh.
When she dies I'm a dream of raini
oh, the night brings sleep
To the greenwoods deep,
To the bird OF the woods Its nest:
To care soft hours,
To life new powers,
To the sick and the weary-resti

: RUSSIANS MURDER JEWS.

The Russian government is wagng war OF
determination against the Jews, and the Jews
all over the world are greatly excited ovei the
condition of their brethren in Russia. A few
days ago. it was reported that thousand Jews
were massacred il one city.
A dispatch in the Chicago American states
that there are FIVE thousand Russian spies in
the United States, who are watching the Jews
here-watching their correspondence with the
Jews in Russia, so as to get some pretext to
kill more Jews In Russia.
And the United States government utters no
word of protest. But, then, we cannot con-
sistently object since we have acted in similar
manner in the Philippines.
The acts of the "terrible Turk" in murder
ing the Armenians, are no worse than the acts
of the Russians in killing the Jews.
