Whose Boy?
by Caroline L. Loftus,)


Whose boy will next he sacrificed
On 6endish drink 8 unhallowed shrine?
Each mothers heart goes up in prayer,
Not mine, o God, not mine, not mine.
No, not the boy whose bonnie head
So Oft I've to my bosom pressed ...
While singing low. soft lullsbies
That soothed the tired child to rest.
O, can it be that he should fall
A prey to ought SO vile rs this?
0, can 1t be the tempter's wiles
Should rob my lie Of all It's olise?
Shall his dear feet be led astray
By this accursed, licensed sin?
This fair young boy whom Jesus loves
Be lost that others gold might win?
Some mothers boy must fill the ranks,
Some Preside treasure feed the flame
Whose fiery tongue insatiate burns
And leaves deep scars OF sin and
Poor, tortured bodies, maneled. bruised,
Wounded too deep for loves sweet
balm,
Souls tossed by discord fierce and wild.
That Heavenly music cannot calm.
o, why should this unholy hand
Write daily horrors on life's page,
And scar as with the breath Of hell
The heart of Childhood, Youth and
Age?
Alas. a nation yields the right
And kneels in blood ut Ma.nmon' q
Shrine.
Whose boy will next be sacrificed?
1t may be yours. it may be mine.

Russell Sage has not squandere(

spent some pretty large sums OF
horses, his love Of which has amount

ago he paid $4,000 for a team of trot
ters for use at his country place on
Long Island, and the first time he wal
to drive them he asked Frank Tilford
who was a neighbor of his, to go with
him. How Uncle Russell made the ro
tund Tilford pay for his outing is still
told with great glee throughout the
countryside.
After driving little way a team
was seen approaching drawing a load
of salt hay out from the meadows
along the shore. Immediately said
Sage:
Il am paying too much money for
bedding for my horses Now Wen see
what this man wants for his load of
bay"
So the stranger was stopped and the
aged financier began negotiations.
"What do you want for that load Of
hayT
"Five dollars" was the reply.
"Five dollars7" said Sage. "Why, It
is not worth a cent more than three.
1t does not cost you anything; all you
have to do is to cut It,"
"Weli," replied the farmer, at takes

But Sage would not pay S5, so a COM
promise was made for 81 for the load

"Where shall l leave itT said the
farmer.
"At Frank Tllfords," said Uncle
Russell, and, turning to Tilford, as
they drove on, he said:
"You see. Frank, If he knew that
hay was for Russell Sage he would
not let It go for less than 81. And, by
the way. when he leaves 1t at your
