Night draweth nigh: my soul ano
Are weary o. the way!
Are weary o. the way
Where Winter wccps for May:
The last, sweet rest,
With flowers abreast
All! that's LIES holiday!
We've had our dreams in years gone by
An then our bitter wakin'!
And sweet came song, the way along,
Whilst the poor heart was breakin'.
But, weary o. the way,
Song thrills no more the May;
The Silence seems
To sing through. dreams
OF Iife's last holiday!
We've had our toll and our reward.
A-journeying down the years;
God gave us Love-all gifts above
And the sweet gift of tears.
But, weary o the way,
We greet the shadows gray,
And thankful rest
With flowers abreast
In Lies last holiday!

JUDGE coNNER's PARCEL POST

The objection to q parcel post sys-
TEN has been that the big dealers in
the cities would use it to the injury OF
the small stores in the country. 1t
would seem as if Hon. j. P. Conner the
Tenth Iowa district member, had
solved the difficulty in the bill he has
prepared and to which the postoffice
department has given its approval.
The bill proposes to admit parcels to
the mails at pound rates where the
same are deposited at Offices forming q
part of any rural route and intended
for delivery on that route. Thus
parcels deposited in the Denison Office
would be accepted at pound rates for
distribution on any rural route out of
Denison. Judge Conner has suggested
as the rate of postage scents for the
first pound and three cents for each
additional pound up to five. which is
the limit of weight. The department
is said to favor q uniform rate OF 3
cents.
AS rural carriers are restricted in
the matter of carrying packages out
side the mails, the patrons OF rural
routes are Inconvenience in making
purchases in town for delivery by the
rural carriers. Judge Corners plan
would relieve them to large extent
and add much to tie utility of the rural
delivery service.
There are still small country mer-
chants who may object to the plan on
the ground that the county seat and
larger towns on the routes would get
1.-THE advantage. 1t is doubtful if much
inheritance can be attached to this OBJ
lection, for all the merchants on a
given route would have equal oppor.
