Here digs the sod, with hanging head,
one cuIst of God to toll for bread.
The whelp of toll. the wolf OF want.
Aye, snap his heel, grim, hungry, gaunt.
Against his dim, dull weary eyes.
The Sword of Flame shuts Paradise.
With sweaty brow rough. grimy hand,
He drives the pillow, he tills the land.
He's forth by dawn; his labors close
When light draws on, brings rest, repose.
He struggles on through heat of day,
Till parting sun filings level ray.
He digs till dark the stubborn earth,
And deems his work of little worth.
In mind appears tall spires and domes.
Where riches rear fair, stately homes.
In proud parade before him rise
The marts Of trade, rare merchandise.
Unnoticed lone. ne tolls along,
Yet yearns To join the swarming throng.
Here's one that's born decreed to live
An atom in human hive.
His labors yield no fruit. seem vain;
He reaps no field of ripened grain.
No vital seed in fertile earth
He sows TO breed In fruitful birth.
Unwonted dreams. strange visions rise,
OF wand ring streams, soft, balmy skies.
These walls are woods, those roofs the
vale,
While peaceful herds browse yonder dale.
Begirt by wall of brick and stone,
Till Fates last call he drudges on.
When all is DER, their lowly cry
Is, God, how poor, how curst am j.
Yet each has served his fellow men;
Their last reward will be. well done"

PROGRESS SLOW IN TURKEY.
electricity Has Not Been Welcomed
in the Sultan's Domains.

in the Sultan's Domains.
Among other curious features which
make Turkey an anomaly in Europe
and among modern governments is
the ban against electricity in the do
minions of the sultan. There are no
electric lights, yet there are gas
plants; there are no telephones, yet
the Turks utilize the telegraph, and
the first electric railway is to be
built, although steam roads are no
longer a novelty. 1t will not be long,
however, before this barrier to prog
ress will be removed, for, according
to United States Consul Ravndal,
plans for an electric railway and for
electric lighting at Damascus are I'M
der serious consideration. That such
q project should be taken up in this,
the Oldest surviving city in history,
indicates that Turkey is about to keep
step, in this respect at least, with the
modern world. High government OH
Gals are interested in the Damascus
lighting undertaking, for which $3.50,
600 is to be raised. Ahmed Izzei
Pasha, second secretary to the sultan
and his brother Mustafa Bey, have
both promised to take stock, as has
also the council of the province. II
this should prove the entering wedge
which it seems, there is field FOL
the immediate attention of American
electrical engineers, manufacturers
and promoters.
