}HYMNS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW $
JESUS. LOVER OF MY SOUL.
By Charles Wesley.

By Charles Wesley.
Charles Wesley-Epworth, England,
Dec. Is, 170S; London, March %, 17SS-i
was the younger brother of John Wesley,
with whom he worked and preached
Charles Is justly known as the poet of
Methodism, for he Is the author Of over
o,ooo hymns which were written for the
use of their people. But he is more than
this, his hymns are of such spirit that
they are sung freely by all denominations
entitled Temptation" and is said to have
been written Immediately after a thrilling
experience OF narrow escape from death bY
shipwreck. Henry Ward Beecher said II
would rather have written that hymn OF
Wesley's than to have the fame Of all the
kings that ever sat on earth Certain t1
Is that this hymn has been sung by many
who have never heard of the great kingl
of earth. Its beautiful thought has become
current in many tongues. 1t was one Of
the favorite songs of the Chinese ChristianA
who persisted in the boxer uprising, many
dying with it on their lips.)
Jesus! lover of my soul,
Let me to thy bosom fly
While the pillows near me roll,
While the tempest still is high;
Hide me, 0 my Savior! hide,
Till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide;
o, receive my soul at last
Other refuge have l none,
Hangs my helpless soul on thee;
Leave, ali leave me not alone,
Still support and comfort me.
All my trust on thee is stayed;
All my help from thee bring;
Cover my defenseless head
With the shadow of thy wing.
Thou, o Christ are all l want;
More than all in thee / find
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is thy name,
am all unrighteousness;
Vile and full of sin | am,
Thou art full of truth and grace.
Plenteous grace with thee is found,
Grace to pardon all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound,
Make and keep me pure within;
Thou of life the fountain art,
Freely let me take Of thee;
Spring thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity.

A WHISTLER STORY.
Tho Eagle That Was Made to Pose az
Fighting Cock,

Inc Eagle hat was Made TO rose az
Fighting Cock.
Apropos of something Whistler once
told cockfight story so wildly that
only a man with sailor instinct could
tell 1t as well, mimic it so keenly and
enjoy it so thoroughly. 1t was a story
of a strange species of the American
cock, pictured to the smallest detail so
beautifully that one forgot that it was
a story.
Some American sailors were at a
oockfght in a seaport town in Eng
land when one of them remarked to
she owner of the champion:
I'VE have got an American cock on
board that can whip any bird here"
go fetch i'm on" said the champion.
"Chuck i'm in and see. If e ticks one
bird we ave plenty more to throw in
that can lick hany blawsted Hamert-
can bird you can fetch ere"
"All right Wen bring one" said the
sailors. When they got aboard they
rugged up an American eagle After
their own manner. they painted, trim

Transforming the eagle to cock. When
ready they went ashore to pit their
new American gamecock against all
England.
At the pit the sailors chucked In
their cock, which looked around for
other surprises as he backed close to
the wall.
Now, bring on your birds" yelled
the sailors. A strutting cock was
thrown into the pit and was another
surprise to the poor dismantled eagle.
He backed up closer and closer to the
wall, wondering what would happen
next The cock walked three times
majestically around the circle, cutting
at his strange opponent, the eagle pitt
ably abashed and bedrabbled, crouch
ing lower and lower and looking
around and above him for an explana-
crowd were yelling madly for the
English fighter. The eagle made him.
self smaller and smaller, but at last
F., finding that he could get back no fur
! ther and thinking that something was
expected of him, and, as the cock
dashed at him again, stretched out his
long claws and took his opponent by
the neck.
Here Whistler ended with an imita
ton by motions of what the eagle did
He stretched out his arm, shaped his
hand like claw, which by this time
looked like real one, drew 1t to his
mouth and with one bite pulled of
the head as he thought an eagle might
do 1t. Then he looked blandly about
the room, as the eagle had done, at the
astonished crowd and said, Now bring
on your other birds."-Otto Bacher In

His Future Assured.

The telephone rang in a certain
brokers' office one morning this week.
and the broker himself answered.
Yes said he, this is it. Pm Mr..
B. What can do for you? Whom
do you want, then? Oh, all right; hold
the wire. Here, Jimmy, some one to
talk to you"
Jimmy, diminutive, towheaded Of

ceiver.
"Yep, dis is Jim. Oh, yep; hullo yer
self. Sure, dat was him talkin'. Wot?
Hully gee! Dat so? A'right-yep-
goodby yerself.

remarked to the broker, dat was

ter me ter tell yer he resigns his job
right now by de phone cause he don't
like de way yer talked t. him yester-
day. He says he kin live anyhow,

"All right" the broker interrupted.

manding my resignation However,

Whitman,s Pnstru

Walt Whitman's poetry, in spite of
the long, joggled, numbering places in
It, comes nearer to reaching out to
what the modern age is trying to be
than any other that we have. Whit
man may or may not be considered a
poet but he has outswept the bounds
of beauty for human life. He has seen
the whole universe in every clod of it.
He has Gods definition of beauty.
Naturally he does not express it as
well as God does. His symbolism Is
crowded with hapless places, and Gods
symbolism never misses the point, but
as the ground plan for great modern
poet-an original or working poet in a
new built, new building. working world
Walt Whitman is the first and only
figure large enough that the world has
had. He had larger repertory of joys
joys with everyday things that any
man might have-than any other poet.
His autobiography would take In lar
ger section of the universe.-Putnam'

punishment in the public schools O.
that state is forbidden. This prohibi
ton was much condemned by certain
of the teachers with old fashioned
Ideas, especially by a teacher In ont
of the schools of the Eastern Shore
some years ago. He was a strappine
big fellow, and it was lucky for his
pupils, who were rather a tough lot
that they were protected by the afore
mentioned law.
The teacher did the best he could un
der the circumstances, but moral sua
sion proving of little avail he finally
laid his case before the board Of trus
tees.

of his trials, those boys must be lick

man.
''Then you must assist me in con

There is no question that the quantity
of sleep required steadily diminishes
from infancy to old age This is a
rather interesting exception to the gen
eral rule that, as in many matters, old
age returns to the needs of infancy
AS regards sleep, old age is more re-
mote in its needs from infancy than is
any other period of life. If elderly
people obtain good sleep during the
first few hours and if they have not
lost that delight in reading which we
all had in youth, but which so many
of us curiously lose, their case is not
to be grieved over. The special value
Of the earliest hours of sleep, by the
way, has been proved by psychological
experiment The popular phrase ''beau-
ty sleep" is well warranted. 1t is the
early, the deepest. hours Of sleep that
make for health and beauty.-Pall Mall

The Baggage System In ENGLAND.

IS you are going abroad, eh?" said
railroad man. "Well, watch your
luggage over there. The system is
abominable.
"They don't, you know, have our sim
pie and satisfactory check system. In
England, for instance, no one is re-
sponsible for your luggage but your
self. You get porter to put it in the
baggage car, and when you reach your
destination you pick it out with an
other porter's help, put it on a cab
and drive off. Any one could steal it.
Often luggage thefts occur.
Il often wondered why the English
railroads. which in many respects are
so good, didn't adopt our American
check system. Last year, asking an
English railroad man, | found out.
IF the English roads adopted the
check system they would be response
BILE for luggage as our roads are. The
English law does not make them re-

do nothing that will lay such a re-
