CHAPTER XIX.-(Continued.)
He had taken her hand and wal

Pardon, lady. l meant no offense.
The tone was one of grief
"Oh-Julian! Julian! Leave me not

She rested her freed hand upon hi:
arm and gazed up into his face. Hel
eyes were streaming with tears and
her bosom heaved convulsively.
"Lady-Ulin!"
"Jultan:-O, in this hour of helpless

poor heart is worth the cherishing

power-I have no choice. The light
of thy face, beaming in love upon me
reveals to me that 1 am bound to thee
by chains which l cannot break"
She rested her head upon his bosom;
and he, winding his stout arms about
her, pressed her to his heart as treas
ure the most precious that earth could
bestow.
The sun sank to it's evening rest
and the shades of twilight deepened
over the river and over the grove
The stars came out, one by one, in
their celestial stations, and anon the
silver moon, lifting its face above the
hills of Hobah. cast its soft light into
the vale. Still the lovers sat beneath
the orange tree; and there they might
have sat late into the night, had not
Osmir come to interrupt them.
What did the guard want at that
hour and in that place. He sought his
master. Julian arose and went to him
and they whispered hurriedly togeth-
er; and then Ulin was sure that she
heard the Arabs mentioned.
"Ulin." said the chieftain, coming
back and taking her hand. you might

At this point Selim came running
up, all out of BREATH but before he
could speak his master stopped him.
Il understand. good Selim. Osmir
has told me-
"But-my master"
"In a moment. Wait till 1 come
back"
And thus speaking Julian led the
maiden to the cave.
Excuse me now" he said, raising
her hand to his lips. Il will be back
shortly. You will not fear?'

OF the Christian Brothers appeal of
the Brothers for financial aid to
carry on the great work of educating
the children Of the parish and outly-

Church Of the Sacred Heart, Omagh,
on Oct %. There was a great con-
gregation present to hear him. No
teachers in any country have won
the respect and esteem Of the people
as the Irish Christian Brothers, and
considering the fact that many of
the most brilliant Irishmen have start
ed their careers and received their
first instructions in the Christian
Brothers School, the love and affec-
ton that exists between this great
order and the people of the country
is not to be wondered at. The collec-
ton was a good one.

Blessed are they who die in Him,
Who sleep Deaths tranquil sleep!
And yet our longing eyes are dim,
Our sorrows with sorrow deep
Grow faint and weary by the way
AS one by one, they go;
Blessed are those He calleth, yea!
His best beloved we'll know.
Blessed are they who die in Christ!
He is their Judge-but He
Who for their dear souls sacrificed
Himself on Calvary,
Will like a loving parent, greet
And gather to His breast
Earth's children who, with weary feet
Have sought in vain for rest.
Blessed are they who in Him die!
Lifes tcoublous journey DER.
Within their Fathers arms to lie
In peace forevermore.
Our human hearts ne'er understand
His mercy, so we weep
When leading loved ones by tho hand
He giveth them sweet sleep.
Blessed are they who die in Thee!
We strive to pierce the veil
Which shroudeth deaths deep mys-
terry,
But human efforts fail
To learn its secret. God most just
1t is Thy will that we
In life in death should ever trust
Our best beloved to Thee!

We have heard from old Missouri and
our heart is light and gay;
She is once moro democratic clean
from Pike to Nodaway,
And we hear the ROSTERS growing in
loud and lusty tone
While the echoes are resounding all
the way from Polk to Stone.
We have heard from old Missouri and
she's back again in line,
And our heart is filled with rapture
and wer're feeling mighty fine
We have heard from old Missouri and
we're feeling good today.
She has turned about in gladness from
the error of her way.
She has shouted out the tidings that
she'll never err again,
And we hear the echoes rolling all the
way from Cass to Wayne.
We have heard from old Missouri; she's
again within the ranks
And our cup of joy hrims over and our
hear is full Of thanks.
We have heard from old Missouri and
the news was full of joy.
Still the old states's ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
tho truth without alloy
Clear from Atchison to Butler and
then back again to Rails
Comes the word that she is ready when
the voice of duty calls.

is standing staunch and true

sky that's fair and blue

The Old Race.

mo Otd Race
Hurrah for the brave old Irish Race
That fire or sword could not efface;
apace
However its foes assail it!
That point by point. and day by day,
Wins back it's rights, and works it's
way!
And bursts it's bonds-Hurra! Hurra!
With hundred cheers We'll hail it.!
What did those foes to the old race do?
They wrecked their country through
and through;
They robbed and stripped, they hacked
and slew,
They hanged and burned and
drowned them; e
But vainly spent were storm and
shock
On that deathless seed, that living
rock!
The isle is filled with the brave old
stock,
And they've worth and wealth
around them!
When fire and sword had done their
parts
Then tried these foes their baser arts,
BY dark degrees to change the hearts
That never would yield or falter;
But now, as in the days Of old,
The Irish heart is native gold,
Cast in the glorious, heaven
No power on earth can alter
And il good work is yet undone,
If rights remain yet to be won,
AS sure as the rising of the sun,
Twill be the same proud story,
Till ends the strife in Liberty.
Till stands the race redeemed and
free,
And all the isle from sea to sea
Is one bright field Of glory!
