her home circle. Miss Selleck went to
Bridgeport, the first of the week, WIS.,
iting friends, and retired at night in
apparently perfect health. In the
morning when her friends called her
they found her dead in bed. The de-
ceased was Y years old.

O SOUL, WHY FAINT BENEATH Til
LOADl

iBY SARAH HAZEN SMITH,.
Heb IL: 5.
o soul, why faint beneath thy load.
Why struggle thus against thy God!
Yield all 60 him, give full control,
OF body, spirit, and of soul.
He knows thy weakness, hears thy sigh;
He's touched with pity at thy cry;
He's close beside thee though unseen;
Naught can escape his eye so keen.
IT'S not in anger but in love;
It's thus he woos thy soul above;
It's thus he fits our souls for Heaven;
IT'S thus we've joys and sins forgiven.
Gods faithful ones from age to age
Have vanquished all, cen Satan's rage:
They're standing now before the throne
Arrayed in garments like his own.
q sou! Of mine rest thou in God;
Faint not beneath the Christening rod.
The lifted hand will gently fall,
And thou wilt praise Him. Lord Of All.

THE OLD WINDMILL.

Our fathers sowed at early morn
 And reaped the harvest Nature gave In fields of wheat and tasseled corn
 That healthful breezes paused to
 wave.
 In faith they titled the earth so kind, Lived humbly, patiently and slow; Content to wait their grain to grind
 For constant friendly winds to blow. The sportive winds. too, would delight To clear the amber wheat of chaff, So youth, in glee, on husking night
 Redeemed the corn with song and
 laugh.
 In time the harvest feast was spread,
 With merry hearts they ate their fill; And all gave thanks with rev'rent
 head,
 They prayed, "A blessing on the good
 windmill
 The old mill bears for modern ways
 A lesson from those olden times; Its ancient wings chant plaintive lays
 To peaceful souls like sacred chimes They sing of frugal, trusting lives And honest men who've reached tht goal;
 Of happy homes where virtue thrives And love abides. Years onward roll Ambition brings a larger need; The grain is ground by costly steam And men to ruin run with speed Their peaceful life is like dream" The wild flowers fragrant tribute brin, l Memorials to the hearts now still, The winds to-day their requiem sing 1 Around the blessed old windmill. Helen J. Dow.
