Some things remain unchanged
throughout the ages while others are
merely transitory despite an appear
nnce Of the greatest durability. Love
and hate, JOY and sorrow. are the same
to-day as they were when man first
discovered he was a creature with
powerful emotions. Like the brook In
the poem, they go on forever, regard
less Of mans coming and going. The
things man has built with his hands,
on the contrary, no matter how great,
have almost invariably crumbled to
dust with the passing Of time, leaving
scarcely a trace Of their existence
On the plains Of Asia Minor, along
the valley Of the Nile In Egypt, and
In other OF the older inhabited parts
OF the earth. there have at different
periods in the remote past sprung into
existence through one cause or an
other great cities, each filed with its
bustllng throngs OF people intent ON
doing the many things that go to make
up urban life. To-day, there scarce re
mains of these one stone upon another
to mark the place OF their being. All
have persisted. Wood and stone. brick
and mortar have fallen into decay;
and Of the many homes that once shell
tered happy families. Of the imposing
piles that housed the multfarious
branches Of trade, and Of the magnih-
cent structures erected TO crafty
mans desire for suitable places in
which to worship, nothing remains in
most instances except few half
buried fragments. In place of these
dead cities of the past there are other
and fairer ones thickly dotilng the sur
face of the earth. but they are all the
result of those never-dying emotions
constantly squirting man to activity.
This constancy of the human emo
lions is key that unlocks the treas
ure house Of all romances Of the
past Because Of II the lover Of to-day
can fully appreciate the hopes and
fears that troubled the hearts Of 9TH

And, quite unconsciously, the little
woman glanced toward wee bed
which was being prepared for another
little tenant, and there was an ex-
preston on her face which made Eric
bend over her and kiss her.
They turned out Of their own room
