SONNETT XVIII.

 By Shakespeare. Shall 1 compare thee to summers day2 Thou are more lovely and more tenn perate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May. And summers lease hath all too short a date; Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometime de- olines, By chance, or natures changing course, untrimmed But thy eternal summer shall not fade Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou growest; So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee

POEMS WORTH READING

Had climbed the skies of June And here the glowing, glorious king, r Of day ruled OCT his realm, With stars of midnight glittering About his diadem. The sea gull reeied on languid wing In circles round the mast, We heard the songs the sirens sing As we went sailing past; And up and down the golden sands A thousand fairy throngs Flung at us from their flashing hands The echoes of their songs.

Thus there was a girl, a vassar girl

madly for help.
Help came at last in the shape of a
grizzied old shellback in a fat-bottome

shellback, recovered her poise, and said il

pErrus,s IMPOSING DIGNITY.
Tho Alabaman Handled the Senate as
a Schoolmaster His School.

Willis j. Abbot in August Munsey's..
Senator Pettus was always a
LOT the dignity of the senate. the
! chamber was in disorder-that is. when
| conversation among the senators had
reached a point that interrupted business
the mere suggestion on the part of the
presiding officer that the junior senator
| from Alabama SHOULD be called to the
chair was sufficient to bring order. When
| he presided he handled the senate as a
schoolmaster conducts his school.
1t is to be said that this regard for leg
~islative dignity is much more characters
tic of the southern members than of those
from the north and west. The southern
| ers seem to feel that the high tradition
| At the senate are worth preserving. Look
Ing upon a seat In it as a great honor the.
strive so to act as to indicate that tht
honor was merited l wish | could say
the same for all their colleagues from 9TH
err sections; but they seem, too often, to
regard the senate as more or less of a pri-
vate asset, which can be utilized for per-
sonal advantage. f
1t has been said in recent years of Nor
gnn and Pettus that they almost consti-
tuted a third party in the senate. AT the
same time, they were far from acting as
a unit on every issue that came before
them. Two old-line democrats as they
were, residents of the same town, and
friends for sixty years, they We're by no
means identical in their political opinions.
1t must be mbe that in the south
J the antagonism between individual demo-
Gratis is sometimes as great as that in the
north between the democrat and the re-
publican. When Mr.. Pettus said of Sena-
tor Morgan, IT nave been his associate and
adversary over sixty years" he said some
thing which would be almost ineXplicable
to the average northern man; but it is the
polite expression Of a positive fact. The
two senators differed SO often that a flip
pant newspaper article not long ago sug-
gested that their one bono of union was
a common fondness for chewing tobacco.
But of neither man has it ever been said
that he. was anything but absolutely nom
est and high minded. Against neither has
1t been charged that he represented any
thing in the senate except the people of
his state and the people of the United
States. Their strongest political adver-
saries in the senate regarded Morgan and
Pettus with sincere respect and warm per-
sonal affection-a fitting tribute to states
men of so admirable a type.
