May.

Ger field and woods the news has gone,
And little flowers are springing;
You feel it in the breath of dawn,
And in the sparrow's singing;
The orchard trees are bourgeoning,
The winds are out ut play:
And ali the earth is listening
To hear the voice of May.

ness, lay weary doe and her fawn,
their silky sides palpitating from re-
cent dash before the hounds. For early
that morning these terrible creatures
had scented the home Of this last fam
| lily of Missouri deer. Swiftly they He'd
away. but seeing their precious little
one could not long stand the fearful
exertion, the noble buck turned back,
thus drawing the cruel bugle voices
upon himself, while by sagacious turn
ing and circling the mother brought
the fawn into the haven. The long
hours of swift tlight had exhausted
both, and they lay painting.
Tall rose the trees over and around
them, while the thick underground
and tangled vines shut out the world
of farms aud farm noises. Frequently
the does delicate ears licked forward
aud backward, but no sound of danger
did she hear. All was still save the
friendly wood-yoiccs, the coo of the
dove, the harsh call OF the rain.crow.
\ silvery-feuthcred hawk looked curi-
ously down upon these two. 1t had
been many a year since Il deer had
trodden the soft moss of this forest.
The mothers heart was torn with
anguish. Where was her mate? What
would become OF her and this helpless
one without the leadership of her
master, without the protection of his
powerful antlers? She laid her head
sadly across her dappied fawn. They
were alone, and lost. There was none
to help or advise, and she was so tired,
and SO thirsty, and knew her little one
must be, for neither had tasted water
since the early morning, out Of the
spring beneath the gray boulder ferns,
where this happy family lived, so
| many, many mites away.
AS the sun slowly sank, and the
woods grew dark and cool, the mother
raised her head and surveyed the
surroundings. \ few cautious Steps
showed her dip in the forest, where
the FURNISHED tree.tops indicated that
their roots were low in a hollow. BY
soft, encouraging t0Lches, she induced
her fawn TO accompany her and slowly,
/. cautiously, they descended. So surely
they stepped that not a pebble rolled.

IMMORTALITY,

The following oratorical gem is said
to have fallen from the lips OF Hon. w.
j. Bryan. 1t is not only beautiful
word painting OF Immortality, but con-
tains much good food for thought;
"If the Father dcigns to touch with
divine power the cold and pulscless
heart of the buried acorn and make it
burst forth from its prison walls, will
He leave neglected the soul of man,
who was made in the image of his
creator If He so stoops to give TO the
roscbush, whose withered blossoms
float upon the autumn breeze, the sweet
assurance of another springtime, will
he withhold the words of hope from the
souls of men when the frosts OF winter
come? II matter, mute and inanimate,
is changed by the force of nature into
Il multitude of forms that never die,
will the spirit Of man suffer annihila-
tion after it has paid brief visit like
a royal guest to this tenement of clay"
One wiser than Bryan has said: "And
whosoever liveth and bcicveth in me
shall never die" Because | live yc
shall live also," "And Jesus said unto
her, am the resurrection ard the life;
he that bclicveth in me, though he were
dead, yet shall he liyc," because ]
live ye shall live also"

EVERY child has right to such an
education as will qualify for life's du-
ties. This is recognized as patriotic
duty by the state. The permanence Of
our political institutions depends on
the intelligence of fourciti2enship. "The
bayonets Of foreign soldiers are less to
be feared than are the ballots Of igno-
rant voters" The welfare Of the state
depends more on the moral and relig.
ious training Of her citizens than on
their intellectual training, yet the state
makes no provision for this moral dis.
ciplinc. In some cases IL makes it
difficult or even impossible to secure
such training. The training of the
mind is not all. There must be "a train
