 St. Louis May 10.-St. Petersburg cables say the Russia government will make an elaborate exhibit at the expo sition. Some time ago Russia refused to participate in the exposition because of an understanding that American sen timent was strongly against that coun- try in it's war with Japan. Since that time there have been so many evidences that American sentiment is not by any means unanimous on the question that the feelings of the Russian government have softened toward the United States,

HOW SHALL WE KNOW.

How shall we know that what We say
Or what we sing
Brings peace to souls who go their way
In suffering?
We know because the gentle word
And grateful song
Have soothed US when with hope de-
ferred
The way seemed long
How shall we know that kindly thought
Or breathed PRAYER
Is balm to souls whose paths are fraught
With ceaseless care?
We know because our darkest ways
Unbidden shine
With cheering gIeams-refected rays
OF light divine.
Go thou, then. forth with song, with
cheer;
Go forth with prayer;
For souls bowed low with woe and fear
Are everywhere:
And not one thought or act of love
or tenderness
But viii return homing dove
Your soul TO bless.

LATEST HAWAIIAN
STAMP ROMANCE

Another extreme rarity in stamp
dom is that of the Sandwich Islands
the two-cent specimen of the first is
sue of the Hawaiian postoffice. Only
very few are in existence. and a
single copy is valued at SO, 600. The rea-
son this stamp is so scarce is that on
ly two days after their issue fire broke
out in the postofice and destroyed the
entire stock, including the plates and
dies. The few that are left of the is
size, and which are so valuable today
are the ones that had been circulated
before the fire.
The foregoing is from purported in
terview with a young stamp collector
of New York City. 1t would be inter
esting if true, which it is not. "A local
authority on stamps explains the rarity
of the old Hawaiian .'2,i by the fact
that it was used on newspapers, there
fore extremely liable to being thrown
away with the wrappers. The reason
the '13'' is not so rare is that when it
was in use envelopes We're not much in
vogue and hence the stamp was pre-
by the receiver when it was deemed
worth keeping. There were no plates
and dies" of the first issues of Hawai-
ian stamps to be destroyed by fire or
otherwise, as they were struck off
when needed from forms of movable
type kept standing in local printing
