some Egyptian fellah after it has
passed through all the stages Of decay
until it is saved by the ragpicker from

IS LIFE WORTH LlvIkG7

II life worth living? How can you
Look mp into yOn skies of blue
In heavens sunshine smile and bask,
And such question dare to ask!
At blossom ,ime, how can you hear
Blithe messengers with notes, high, clear.
From branch and bough proclaim His
might
Without u thrill of glad delight!
How can you know the gentle press
On cheek and brow Of winds caress,
And not within your bosom feel
An earnestness, new born zeal!
X life worth living? How can you
Gaze lovingly in eyes 50 true,
And not within their depths behold
The light that blends each hour with
gold?
How can you, the ones who wear
the crown Of motherhood, bright, fair,
Be-query thus, when 'gainst your breast
Two little warm, red lips are pressed?

A Big Water Leakage.

For some time past the State Board
of Capitol Commissioners have been
more or less puzzled to account for
the scarcity Of water on the Capitol
grounds. They sent an agent to in
vestigate and he reports people on
the prison road who have a sort OF
private water works of their own and
are using state water to run their gar
dens with.
They plead in defense that they
have been doing it for years.
Meanwhile the grass on the Capitol
square is suffering while the truck gar
dens are thriving. 1t is probable the
State will sue for the water that has
been used.
