Beyond the Sunset.

1GyOA0 ING 00ASCts
What splendid evenings we had
the last of February and the first OF
March! No one could fail to observe
the glory of the western sky for an
hour or two after sunset. With a
cloudless sky and the air so clear
and transparent it seemed as if you
could see far into the abyss beyond
the sunset. The wondrous color
ing of amber and gold and crimson
seemed to extend far away into the
limitless fields of ether. Who could
view the beauty of that splendid
sheen of expansive glory and be i'm
pressed with other than the hottest
thoughts? If on the confines of this
little world there expands such won
drous beauty, what ineffable glory
must lie beyondl
The sun sinks below the horizon
in a blaze of splendor,
And leaves his beauty
To the delighted west that revels in
Hues of dying glory
but eastward above the folds of the
shadowy woodlands the crests of
eminences flame with his reflected
fires. And now while the gathering
twilight embraces the purpling hills
black Night slowly upward from
the eastern horizon expands her sa-
BILE drapery, and here and there at
wide intervals pale stars send fee
BILE beam of light down through the
blue empyrean.
AS Night advances her ebon pail
athwart the sky, far and wide, away
beyond, and on the marge of the
fields of azure and throughout their
circumambient expanse
Blossom the lovely stars,
The forget-me-nOts of the angels"
And anon above the horizon S rim,
heralded by a sheen of silver, rises
the refulgent moon, and, Queen Re-
gent of the heavens, advances her
triumphant march in stately gran
deur amidst the paling stars, but
half way between the horizon and
the zenith she seems to halt and
hang on the violet walls of the sky
like broken shield of beaten gold,
hang there as if to rest a space in
the hush of all-pervading peace.
And now from the face of the
western sky the hectic flush has
faded into grey, but like flaming
torches, Venus and Jupiter blazon
the heavens in their painless flight
as followers of the sun.
Perhaps this splendor of the even
ing sky is a faint, evanescent reflec-
ton of the glory of the Holy City, a
glimpse of whose beauty John saw
in beatific vision from the Isle of
Patmos; that land where there shall
be no sunset and where there is no
night, and they who abide there
"Need no candle neither light of the sun,
For the Lord God giveth them light, and
He shall wipe all tears from their eyes; there
Shall be no more death. neither sorrow nor
Crying; neither shall there be any more
Pain"
And over the billowy slopes of
death, beyond the sunset, to the
confines of the Holy City, will We
nus and Jupiter, those splendid
torches of the night, light our waya
And on the foothills of the shining
mountains that encircle the City of
Our God, shall we see the smiling
faces of the dear ones. ever resplen-
dent in the vestibules of memory,
"the loved and lost?" And will
they come with outstretched arms
to welcome us,
emo longer severed by the ties OF life.
But joined forever in the bonds OF death,
Transformed, and face to face?"

The New Hzts.

The disappearance NJ the high
crown and also of the inordinately
large hat should be welcomed by ev-
cry one; the tall crown in particular
was an offense to good taste and be-
coming to less than one woman in a
hundred, and even the woman who
could wear them and not look freak
ish would have looked better in some
thing else.
Many of the new shapes show much
variety in brims; many brims are
wide. Many hats are egg-shaped, the
crown appearing at the narrow end.
Others are heart-shaped, like the one
described last week, while still 9TH
ers are shaped like pears. In the
egg-shaped hats with the crown at the
narrow end, the wider part at the
back is usually turned up very sharp
ly, and this back is nearly covered
with flowers or other decoration. 1t
Is probable that the oval shapes ven
tured last year will be more worn
this summer, as the putting OF the
hair over the ears renders them more
becoming. In some hats the brims
slope upward from the crowns base,
and in others the brims roll but slight
ly at the edges.

A 48o-AcRE FARM YIELDS
rs PER CENT PROFIT IN A YEAR
What a Mercer County (ohlo) Farmer
Received from One Years Crop.

Extracts from an interesting letter
from P. H. Rynhard, of Starbucks
Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent
idea Of the prosperity of those who
have gone from the United States to
Canada. He says:
81 bought, August, 1903, 4SO acres
of land, paying $4,000 for it. We
threshed 1878 bushels of wheat and
between 1900 and 1900 bushels OF
oats and barley from 200 acres. But
part of the wheat went down before
filling and was not harvested except
for hay. The crop was worth at
threshing time, $4,000. Besides 40
acres laying idle except a timothy
meadow, which is not included in this
estimate. Counting the value OF the
product and the increase of value OF
land will pay me more than rs per
cent on the investment. Two broth
ers in the same neighborhood bought
$50 acres each six years ago. They
have not done single thing to this
land except to fence 1t and break and
cultivate about one-half Of it. Har-
vested last year 2S bushels wheat per
acre. This year q bushels per acre.
They can get any day $25 per acre.

dreds of such chances. 1t looks like

Yoke Embroidery,

A treatment that is sure to be adapt
ed to hundred variations is the
most delicate of embroidery in de-
signs that form a deep yoke. Just
below the embroidery. directly in

ciennes, which runs down to the belt
and has three other rows set at regu-

around, the edglng frilllng out from

is very shallow. Sleeves in nearly

finished with long, deep cuffs. They
are tucked up and down, or around,

Upon coming to France felt a
sense of deep humiliation to think
that the most fascinating hero Of our
revolution and the father of the Amer
lean navy, John Paul Jones, had been
permitted to lie for more than a cen
fury in an unknown and forgotten
grave in a foreign land and that no
serious effort had been made to rescue
his remains from oblivion. More than
five years ago upon my own RESPONSE
bility | began a systematic search for
the recovery of his body. 1t was be-
lieved to have been buried in GENE

ably the old st. Louis cemetery in the
northeastern quarter of Paris, al
though several authors had mentioned
other burying grounds.
Unfortunately the public records
had been disturbed and scattered dur
ing the revolution, and the registers
Of foreign Protestant Ourials burned
ny the commune in 1871. Fortunately,
an archeologist had preserved copy
of the register containing Paul Jones'
certificate of burial but no mention
was made of the place of interment.
Search was then made Of the records
of the national assembly which had
honored Paul Jones memory by ap-
pointing a distinguished delegation to
attend his funeral, also If newspapers

where the remains had been depos.
tied.
Finally, direct information, corrobo-
rated by circumstantial evidence, was
obtained which made it certain that
Paul Jones had been buried in the now
abandoned st. Louis cemetery. Among
other evidence, a most interesting let

of justice, saying that when 1t was
found that there was no money avail
