his daughter, goes wherever the Spirit
calls him. The man carries his hat

great dirty yellow ribbon. The sun
pours down upon it all day long, and
the unceasing glare adds to its ugli-

anywhere within sight; not a drop of
water has fallen from the blue skies

wagons and the hoofs of horses have
churned and kicked the surface of the

The Bethlehem Star

The Bethlehem Star! The Guiding Star
OF Old Judeah'S night.
Has it become a faded scar
Across the orient night
The guess of Science, and the guess
OF critic, seer, and sage?
Has it the DINNER grown, or less
For change of cline and age?
Star of the East!-it Is not set:
Though Science scout the sky,
IT'S burning in the heaven yet,
AS bright and sure and high
AS when the Shepherds saw it flame
Over Old Bethlehem,
And followed ii until it came
And showed a Christ to them
The Bethlehem Star-each mother sees
Its holy prOmSe-light,
Believing each its deStinies
Her darlings, in the night;
Believing each the little star
Is set above her son
To light her mother-hopes that are,
And shine when hers are done.
The Bethlehem Star! The Guiding Star
That hoverS full and clear
Wherever babe and cradle are.
And parents watching near;
Wherever cherub lips of love
Bring tidlngs of great joy,
Wherc'e Il mother bends above
Her darling first-born boy!

A Christmas Carol

The earth is bare and dreary.
And Cheerless Is the light,
The distant hills are cleaning,
With snow drifts tleecy white.
The summer birds are silent,
The flowers are sleeping low,
Upon the carth's warm bosom,
Safeguarded from the. snow,
The dear old year is dying,
But ere it quite departs,
With beams of golden glory
1t cheers our wistful hearts.
For Christmas-merry Christmas
The Christians Day of Days,
a tender benediction
Upon it softly lays.
oh Christmas-merry Christmas
In spirit we go back,
To see the star that guided
The sages on its track.
To see the Baby Jesus
Upon His lowly bed.
While seraph hosts adoring,
Sang praises DER His head
And we, in spirit kneeling,
The Babe of Bethlehem
New born of Virgin Mother.
Adore and praise with them.
Oh, Son of God, most Holy!
And yet no home so small,
But Thou, our King and Savior,
Wilt be the Guest of all!
oh, Christmas-merry Christmas
1t comes to make us glad,
1t comes to high and lowly,
To happy and to sad:
1t comes. with sweet insistence.
Our dropping hearts to cheer,
And touch with tender glory,
These last days of the year.
With golden rays of promise,
The hopes that chill have lain
To fuller life it quickens,
Until they bloom again.
Goodwill all hearts uniting,
We bid vexations cease
Then unto God be glory,
Who unto earth gives peace.

Holly Song

The holly is for happiness;
Hang il, hang ii high,
When the holy morn we bless
Shows its rose along the sky.
The holly is for heartsome cheer:
Hang it, hang it high
While the glory of the year
Lights the heights of all the sky!
The holly Is for home side mirth;
Hang 1t, hang it high.
Till the dearest day of earth
Fades in shades along the sky

A long line of bending figures passed
up the gang plank into the bold of the
vessel, then back by another plank to
the wharf, where they again connected
with the line, forming an endless
chain Each link was woman, and
upon every sloping back was a bunch
Of bananas.
AT the wharf end of the gang plank
man gave glance at the number OF
clusters, or hands, upon the lunches
as they passed and then called out their
sizes in Il singsong "one-half bunch,
zone bunch" two and a half" two"

and another man with book upon a
board placed across a barrel marked
them down.
In the hold two men directed the wo-
men where to place the fruit. Both OF
these were 'conchs," one a rough. bru-
tai looking fellow. who merely nodded
directions and scowled, and the other a
laughing, testing youngster, who gave
his orders by springing forward and
helping each woman to deposit her
bunch in its proper place.
Usually the women thanked him with
looks or words, some of them adding,
"You good boy, Rafo,' or "Ev'bods
goin' smile on you If you keep on like
dis"
But one link OF the human chain
there was that did not thank him with
looks or words either. She was old
and shrunken, with covetous, suspi-
cious eyes. and when Rafo sprang for
ward she always met him with angry
snarlings and would never allow him
to touch her bunch. But not whit
difference did it make to Rafo His
song or laugh went on Just as light
heartcdly as ever and when her por-
ton of the chain came round again he
was waiting as usual, with his ready
offer of help. his ready laugh and his
friendly eyes.

home Is on the skirmish line.
The railway fight which centered
last year in Wisconsin has now been
transferred To Washington. A Wis
coosin issue has become Il national
issue. When Wisconsin declares for
tariff revision, the day of tariff re-
vision, "the day of wrath, that dread
full day" Is probably on the point of
dawning.
Massachusetts has already placed
itself on the side OF progress. Its
representatives in the lower house
of the national legislature have sol
idly gone over to "the reimbursement
Of the tariff in accordance with the
principles of protection at the ear
Hest practicable time"
Both Wisconsin and Massachusetts,
have large protected industries,
! Their attitude toward tariff revision
is not that Of the cold and hungry
outsider. If they want tariff revision,

gan and Indiana, and Illinois. Uncle
Joe Cannon, with his genial avuucu-
lar temperament, might aS well hu-
NOR his still loyal and atrectionate
nephews, the voters of the United
States. Special privileges to special
| interests constitute a moral issue,
and tariff revision is a matter Of
priuciplous well as Of dollars and
cents.
