The Loom of Life

Inc Loom OF Lille
All day, all night, can hear the jar
Of the loom Of life, and near and far
1t thrills with it's deep and mufaed
AS the tireless wheels go round and
round.
Busily, ceaselessly, goes the loom
In the light Of day and the midnight's s
gloom; l.
The wheels are turning early and late,
And the woof is wound in the warp of
fate
Click clack! there thread of love was
woven in;
Click clack and another Of wrong and
sin;
What checkered thing will this life be
When we see it unrolled in eternity
Time, with face like mystery,
And hands as busy as hands can be,
Sits at the loom with its warp out
To catch in it's meshes each glancing
thread
When shall this wonderful web be done
In thousand years, perhaps, or one,
Or tomorrow. Who knoweth? Not you
nor 1,
But the wheels turn on, and the shuttles
fly.
All, sad-eyed weaver, the years are slow,
But each one is nearer the end, l know;
And some day the last thread shall be
woven in
God grant it be love instead Of sin.
Are we spinners of wool for this life
web, say?
Do we furnish the weaver thread each
day?
1t were better, then, oh, my friend, to
spin
A beautiful thread, than thread Of sin.

A live wild Irishwoman on her trav-

trice Grimshaw, who is now in Eng
land after two years journey full of
excitement and adventure. Miss Grim
shaw, all alone, ventured among south
sea cannibals and in places where no
white woman had set foot before. Her
taste in curios appears to be unique.
She took home with her as souvenirs
of her travels several skulls and the
thigh bone of woman who had been
eaten by cannibals. The woman's hus-
band killed her because "she talked
too much" On one occasion Miss
Grimshaw entered a temple into which
none of her sex was allowed to set foot
and got away before she was detected.
Death would have been her sure doom

Two Newspaper Women.

A year ago Miss Katherine Baxter
was Sunday editor of newspaper in
Kansas City. while Miss Clara q. Kel-
logg was in the business department of
the same paper. They had ability,
knowledge of the newspaper business
and souls full of grit and ambition.
They laid their heads together and de-
cided to start a journal of their own
somewhere. They investigated the
Missouri field and settled on the
wealthy and rapidly expanding city of
ST. Joseph for their enterprise. They
issued last November the first one cent
newspaper in st. Joseph 1t was an
afternoon journal and was successful
at once. Their paper is Independent in

Antf-SalOon League

In the midst of all of the discussion
of the excise question and the legisla-
ture this fall, the Anti-Saloon League
appears to have been pushing steadily
forward and increasing its working
force to the end of advanced temper
ance legislation.
Within the past four months, the
Office force has been increased from
two to five people, and every Sunday
from four to six men are presenting
the cause in two churches each, besides
meetings on other days.
Besides their executive office at New
ark, they have just opened a Legislative
office at Trenton, from which point the
uperntendent, Mr.. j. Frank Burke,
will direct the fight for the local option
bill with weather eye open for the
protection of present legislation. The
League launches weekly paper at the
same time, which will keep growing
constituency informed of the progress
of work.
Mr.. Burke, the superintendent, says
that he expects comprehensive local
option bill to be introduced in both
houses, and either pressed to passage,
OF the reason for its failure shown to the
state. He said that the home rule meas
ure which would be proposed must
appeal to the sense offairness and ameri-
canism OF all the representatives. He
further said that the influence and
power of the federated churches are in
creasing every day as was evidenced by
the fact tnat nearly twice as many
churches had had the Anti-Saloon
League work presented in their pulpits
during the past four months in New
Jersey by expert men as had heard
the work in any previous single year.
He declared that the spirit ofunity and
cooperation was in the air, and that at
no distant day New Jersey would take
her place in the front rank of the states
in temperance legislation.
