I that had life ere was born
Into this world of dark and light,
Waking as one who wakes at morn
From dreams OF night;
I am as old as heaven and earth,
But sleep is death without decay.
And since each morn reneWs my birth
I am no older than today.
Old though my outward form appears
Though it at last outWorn shall lie,
This that is servfle to the years,
This is not L

When I put off this garb of flesh,
Still in immortal youth shall wake

tanned that the statutes declare that
persons who keep some other day holy

He afirms that waiting on customers

Mr.. Boardman secured stay of ten
days to appeal. If the supreme court
decides in favor Of the defendants, the
city attorney says the Sunday law
will be practically worthless, for it is
only the smaller stores that keep open

PRAISES PRESIDENT
Democratic Governor Commends His
Part in Bringing Peace.

Governor John A. johnson strongly
commends the action taken by Presi-
dent Roosevelt in intervening to aid
in establishment of peace between ia
pan and Russia.
president Roosevelt's services in
assisting Japan and Russia to make
peace have made him the hero of the
hour and the foremost figure in the
world,' said Governor johnson in dis
cussing the peace treaty.
"It is hard to tell just what part
the president played in the peace ne
gotiations, but. the fact that he sug-
gested the conference and kept the en-
voys together until a settlement was
reached is sufficient to establish in the
minds of the people Of the world his
claim to share in the honors.

vital concessions which made peace pos
sible is one Of the wisest and most mag
unanimous acts in the history of the
