YOUNG LOVE

Not where the shadows tangle.
Nor where the sorrows run,
But where the sunbeams spangle,
And where the gold is spun;
Not where the gloom is shaking,
Nor where the grief is spread,
But where life's joy is making
Rose gardens--let us tread!
Time was not made for weeping,
Life was not giV'n for care,
With toll and trouble keeping
Their vigil everywhere.
Let's you and I together
Go up the hills and CLEAN,
To meet the sunny weather
And dream the young love dreaml
Put by the somber moment,
And doff, sweetheart, the tear;
Life's fever and it's foment
Its turmoil and it's fear,
VIII wait to cool our passion
When silver threads the hair;
Now. in loves old. old fashion,
Let us forget life's care!
Let not thy footsteps falter
Down deWy ways to me,
But where l light loves altar,
oh, fly, sweetheart. to me!
Arms wait for wild enfolding,
Eyes burn through deeps of bliss,
And, none but God behoiding,
Love locks us in his kiss.
Though near us storms be rolling,
And thunder shake the sky,
Deaf to the deep's extolling.
We wander, you and |.
For so from life love leads us
To tread the dewy way,
And none but God, dear, heeds us
Through all the livelong day.

HUSBAND OF GREATNESS

This little incident, which happened
lately, casts yet a little more light upon
the deplorabe existing condition of the
unfortunate husbands of famous wives
1t was a warm and sultry day, and
Winston Churchill, his charming wife
and some guest S were enjoying the
balmy breezes of spring upon the broad
piazza of the novelist's summer home,
when putting and chugging red motor
car whizzed up the carriage drive. The
Churchills fastened down to meet their
guests, and Mrs. Edith Wharton, the
presiding lady of the big red car, pro-
ceeded to make known the various
members Of her party as they stepped
one by one from the painting auto.
After the formalities of introduction
had been most graciously performed by
Mrs. Wharton the merry party pro-
ceeded toward the piazza in apparent
forgetfulness that yet another unintro-
duced person remained in the back seat
OF the car.
Mr.. Churchill, in great surprise, lin
gered behind and surveyed this quiet
and pleasant faced gentleman with a
questioning glance.
The unknown then stepped quickly
out of the car, and approaching Mr..
Churchill quietly remarked: "Oh, that's
all right, Mr.. Churchill; I'm only Mrs,
Wharton's husband"
A smile of comprehension flashed
across Mr. Churchill's face. "Well,
you're just the one I'm looking for" he
said, and cordially grasping the others
arm he conducted him into his private
den and devoted himself exclusively to
Mrs. Wharton's husband" while the
lady novelist herself and the rest Of the
party were entertained by Mr.. Church
his wife.-New York World.

TAKE YOUR CHOICE

Two real candidates for governor and
one dummy are now campaighlne IN
Southern California Candidate Bell
the Democratic champion, is arousfne
voters by his eloquence and earnest-
ness as they have not been aroused in
years. Candidate Gillett, nominee OF
the Southern Pacific and Republican

"leve best" to keep honest Republicans

Langdon, is being exhibited as a side

mento as a spectator. 1 was not even

spent not one cent, l spoke not a
syllable for my unanimous nomination
as the party's choice for governor.

will owe my election only to the people
of this state"
The status of Candidate Gillett, as
he appears before the voters Of the
southland, is revealed by his intro
duction at the Washington banquet by
f.. II. Hartman supreme boss OF the
Southern Pacific railway:
Hon. James N. Gillett, the next
governor of California"
Then and there Mr.. Glllett's neck
was metaphorically encircled with the
collar of the Southern Pacific company
bearing in monogram the inscription,
&c. II. H."
And what of the Hearst dummy cam
didate? Nothing worthy of mention,
except yellow collar inscribed Prop
erty of William Renegade Hearst"
In view of this exhibit of guberna-
torlal timber, before the voters of Cal
ifornia, for which is the average man
of intelligence likely to cast his bal
lot? If there is one quality that Cal
ifornians admire pre-eminently it is
manliness. They instinctively despise
man who wears the servile collar
the badge Of substantial ownership by
another.
The servile collars of Gillett and
Langdon glitter and glare in the light
of Southern California, and honest vo-
ters cannot restrain expressions of con-
tempt at the sight.
And Bell? Read again that manly,
virile, independent declaration quoted
above.

HORRORS OF CLOSE SLAVES

A New York barber has on a corner
Ia BILE a fine pocket microscope and a
rfamed announcement that says:
"Do you know what close shave
means? Bring a friend here, IL you
don't, have him shaved close, and then
look at his face thru this microscope.
The entire skin will resemble piece
of raw beef.
ITO shave the face perfectly smooth
requires not only the removal of the
hair, but also a portion of the cutlcle
so that close shave means the removal
of layer of skin all round. The blood
vessels thus exposed are not visible to
the eye, but under the microscope each
little quivering mouth holding a min
ute blood drop, protests against such
treatment, Bring a friend and see!
"The nerve tips are also uncovered
by close shaVes, and the pores are left
unprotected. which makes the skin ten
der and unhealthy. This sudden expo

EFFECT OF GLASSES ON LUNCH

An American at one of the late AL
fred Belts dinners asked the Million
aire what quality he considered most
essential to success. 'Astuteness, pro-
vided that industry goes with It," Mr..
Belt replied. "The power to see quick
ly and to seize every advantage, large
and small alike, is the quality that
above all Others insures success. Mr..
Carnegie tells about a little Scotch boy
who had the quality of astuteness high
ly developed. The boys grandmother
was packing his lunch for him to take
to school one morning. Suddenly look
ing up to the old lady's face, he said
Grandmother, does your specs mag
nify?' "A little, my child she an
swered. 'Aweel, then, said the boy,

The Willie Boys

Wrong side out and thought it fun;

So she turned the hose on him.

A FANcY

I've never heard the cuckoo claim,
With sweet, unvext persistence,
His wandering love by tender name,
Save in the far, far distance.
I've never watched on any tree
The little, patient wooer,
Nor know 1 where the haunts may be
or that unseen Cuckooer.
so now | half believe the thing
Is mystical and airy,
A voice without covering.
A spirit or a fairy!
A whisper from the quiet ways,
A sound Ger silence stealing
A lonely note OF love and praise
A lonely heart concealing,

PLEDGES GREET NEW YEAR
Francis Murphy Holds Big Temper
ance Watch Meeting at Blanch-

Francis Murphy held a watch meet
ing at Blanchard hall last night and the
new year was welcomed with prayers
The lars st audience gathered at this
assembly that has ever attended a
Murphy meeting and many responded
to the call for volunteers to relate their
experience in breaking away from the
liquor habit.
Mr.. Murphy took for the subject of
his address the blessings of married
life and gave one of those heart to
heart talks for which he is famous.
Several told of the influences which
had caused them to sign the pledge
just one year ago last night and spoke
of the joyful feeling with which they
welcomed the new year, which promised
so much to them.
A large number took advantage of the
two hours between 10 O'Clock and IL
to sign the pledge and related the
stories of their lives, which all agreed
had been cursed by drink. A few
signed the pledge who do not drink, but
stated that they did so thinking that

1t must not be implied because these
glee singers are for the most part
drawn from the famous Westminster
Abbey choir that their selections are
of sacred nature, but for the special
benefit of those interested in church
music, one number will be introduced
upon each program in the form of an

beginning New Years matinee. The
play being "Ingomar." Strange TO re-
late, his two great predecessors, Edwin
Forrest and John Mccullough bade
farewell to the stage in two of the three
plays offered. On the evening of April
2, 1872, Edwin Forrest closed mis- dra-
matte career upon the stage of the
Globe theater, Boston, in the play and
character of "Richelieu," which Mr..
James presents tonight, and the last
words of the cardinal as the drop cur
tain fell, 80 ends ALL" seemed d fit
ting farewell Of the grand old actor
to public he served faithfully Tor over
fifty years.
Mental and physical collapse came
upon John Mccullough while playing
"Virginius' at McVicker's theater, Chi
cago, in 1884. Thus two of the three
great links that have held in safety the
welfare of the classic drama have
"shuffied off this mortal coil" in har-
ness.

Rev. Warren r. Day, D. D., Preaches
New Years Sermon on the Issues

At the First Congregational church
on yesterday morning Rev. Warren F
Day, D. D., pastor emeritus, preached
a New Years sermon from the text
Lord, let it alone this year also" He
said in part:
Like a cloud on the wings of the
wind another year is passing. Through
vast space we have been speeding with
a velocity nearly six times greater thar
that of cannon ball; yet without
sound or sensation of motion. Marvel
Gus is the stiffness of this stupendouS
universe with it's sublime sweep of suns
and stars. In a few hours the portals
of the old year will close, and the
gates of the new stand ajar. We are
looking with keen expectancy of con-
tinued life. But why one year more
of life?
as it not sufficient that God wills
that we should live? Life is worth
whils the Master continues to say, stay
yet a while. Then, there is a mighty
plea for living in the fact that, life as
it comes from the infinite hand is OF
such magnitude that 1t may not be
lightly laid down. TO live is sublime

MANY will live this year because
they lived so we'll last year. TO the
challenge, what doest thou here? the
master replies for them. let them
alone. They are doing my work, by
them my empire expands. Paul COW
cred the case when he wrote, For me
to live Is Christ. OF them the master
said; Ye are the salt Of the earth.
Without these people, society would col
lapse. We may not be able always
to pick out these men and women. Ii
is not the Lords way to put a halo
around the heads of his saints as was
the manner of the early painters. But
no matter; the Lord knows them.
Known or not, they are silent forces
for the welfare of the world. What
blessed thing it is that the Lord
does not take his children out of this
world just as soon as they are ready
for heaven.

lyon YonsonD Returns

"Yon Yonson," the same old Yon,
who makes his appeal by virtue of
broad humor and honest pathos arising
amid scenes of the logging camp, and
favored with the drone of the Swed-

sented yesterday to a standing room

rimental effect upon "Yon Yonson" and
the ups and downs Of the laundering
Swede, whose career is very much in
the ascendant at the drop of the cur

effect as was evidenced from the nani-

the pecipitation of the villain into the
river at the hands of the ever present
