The Great Guest Comes.

While the cobbler unused there passed
 his pane A beggar drenched by the driving rain, He called him in from the stony street And gave him shoes for his bruised
 feet.
 The beggar went, and there came a
 orone Her face with wrinkles of sorrow sown. A bundle of faggots bowed her back, And she was spent with the wrench and He gave her his loaf and steadied her
 load
 Then to his door came little child, Lost and afraid in the world so wild, In the big, dark world. Catching it up, lie gave 1t the milk in the waiting cup, And led it home to its mothers arms, Out of the reach of the worlds alarms. The day went down in the crimson west And with 1t the hope of the blessed
 Guest. And Conrad sighed as the world turned
 gray:
 why Is it, Lord, that Your feet delay? Did You forget that this was the dayY' Then soft in the silence Voice he Lift up your heart, for I kept my Three times came to your friendly
 door,
 Three times my shadow was on your
 floor
 I was the beggar with bruised feet; I was the woman you gave to eat; I was the child on the homeless street" From poem by Edwin Markham ln
 the December Delineator.

VERY MUCH ALIYE,

The army carteen question will not down. Some good and zealous women thought they downed it, but they now know they didn't. Other good and zealous women are telling them that they didn't. To restore the army can teen is the object of a movement which has been started in Washington by a number of women who are associated as auxiliaries with army veteran asso- ciatlons. They have organized a soci- ety known as the Army Canteen Club, and have taken steps to form similar clubs throughout the States. Army canteen clubs are said to have been es- tablished in Chicago, Cincinnati and in several places in New York State. It is the belief of the members of the clubs that the restoration of the army canteen will be in the interest of gen uine practical temperance and against what they designate as the mistaken theory of temperance" They have quoted from the unanimous endorse ment of the American Medical Society of the movement for the restoration of the canteen to the military posts and soldiers homes. They expect to be sec- 
 onded in their efforts for the return of the canteen most heartily by the wives, mothers, sisters and daughters of sol- diers, as well as by all American wom- en who agree with them that the enact- ment of the anti-canteen law was ill., advised, and has resulted in a large increase of habitual drunkards in the army, as is shown by the recent report of surgeon-General O'Reilly.
 There is no doubt that there Is a good deal of intelligent opinion that the abolition of the canteen was a wrong move, but it isn't likely that those who got it abolished have changed their minds. So there is like | ly to be some warm talk about the matter.

The army quartermasters are in a great quandary concerning the build ings in the Philippines. It is found that lumber brought from the United States does not answer the purpose at all, and that there will have to be probably main reliance upon metal as building material. Some experiments have re- gently been conducted by experts into the effect of the white ant, which does much destruction at tropical stations. That insect labors so diligently and with such devastating effect, that lum- ber is entirely consumed in an incredi- bly short period, long before 1t could ba, attacked by decay or before there could be any deterioration accomplish ed by climatic influences. The white ants are to be found in great numbers and if lumber is used at all it must be treated with a special and expensive process as a means of preservation. This increases the cost of construction in the Philippines, and adds to the problem of providing shelter for troops at the various stations.

The British vice-consul at Rouen re- ports that the cultivation in France of the new potato brought from Uruguay has been observed for some time with great interest. The variety is called "Solanum commersonali violet" is said to possess excellence of taste as we'll as nutritive value, and is equal to the best table potato known in France. This variety is distinguished by its resist ence to frost, as also to disease, and It's one great advantage is that 1t pros pers most in damp and swampy soil, where no other kind of potato would grow.

There are many generous people with much to give away. The Hon. William P. Lechtworth of Portage, New York, has offered to give outright to his State, for the purposes of a public park and scenic and historic reserva- tion, his whole splendid estate In Wyo- ming and Livingston counties. The property comprises about a thousand acres. along both sides of that portion of the Genesee river which includes the famous Portage Falls and Gorge, a group of natural phenomena second In grandeur only to Niagara itself in this part of the country. The estate also contains the last Indian council house of the 1roquois confederacy, formerly at Caneadea; an interesting museum, a fine library, and singular wealth of material for geological, botanical and other study. The acquisition and im- provement of this estate have cost Mir. Lechtworth in the course of the last fifty years about $5OO,O00.
