Figures from the Department of
Commerce and Labor show a steady
Increase in the tide of immigration
that is flowing into this country.
There has been an annual immigra-
ton of over 100000 for each year
of the past three years, the high
record bling made in 1906 with 1900
900 aliens. But the figures for July
just passed are 97,132, an increase of
Is per cent over the figures for the
same month of last year. There is
this to be said, however, that there
were fewer deportations and the I'M
migration Bureau states that this was
not due to more lax inspection, but
that the standard Of immigrants was
actually higher. 1t is of course to be
regretted that so much of this i'm.
mense tide is congested in the big
cities when there is a real demand
for immigrant labor in the country

AN INDIAN LEGEND.

In the beginning when Twa5htri
came to the creation OF woman, he
found that he had exhausted his ma
tie is in the creation of man, and
that no solid elements were left.
y In this dilemma, after profound
meditation. he did as follows:
He took the rotundi1y of the Mooh
and the twinkling of the stars.
And the curves OF the creepers, and
the clinging of the tendrile.
And the trembling of grass, and the
slenderness Of the reed.
And the bloom of flowers and the
igntness of leaves.
And the tapering OF an elephants
tusk and the chances OF deer.
And the clustering OF rows Of 5oas.
and the joyous gaiety of sunbeam.
And .he weeping OF clouds and the
fckleness OF he winds.
And the timidiy of the hare, and
the vanity of the peacock.
And the softness of the parrots
And the sweetness of honey, and
the cruelty Of the tiger.
And the warm glow of fire and the
GOODNESS of snow.
And the chattering of jays and the
cooling of the kokila.
And the hypocrisy of the crane and
the fidelity OF the chakawaka.
And compromising all these together
he made woman and gave her to man.
But in two weeks the man came cry
ing, 20. Mighty Master OF Mysteries
thou who has made all the wonders OF
the world, take again the woman that
thou has given me; she leases me
tantaliZes me and tires me and | can
not live with her. And Twashtri took
the woman away But in two weeks
time the man came again and CRIED
out, Give me back the woman thai
thou made; | cannot live without
her.
You brought the woman to me say
ing that you could not live with her
What do you want?'
ALAS, it's true,' said the man. =
do not know what | want. canno
live without her and l cannot live will
her."
And Twashtri answered. Take tn,
woman now and do the best you cal
together, for | made her for you am
you for her.

But it is believed that the newly es-
!ablished bureau of information for
immigrants in the Department of
Commerce and Labor may do some
thing to obviate this trouble.

Frank p. Sargent, the United States
Commissioner iof Immigration said
one day.
There is fine stuff in some OF these
poor people who come to our shores.
l heard recently of young Swedish
woman. Brave, witty and honorable,
she could bring splendid young
Americans into the world. A short
time after she arrived among us, ner
nusband got out of work. Naturally
The rent fell behind. The landlord
called for it one day in her hus-
lands absence. He listened to the
JOung wOnlan's tale of misfortune,
regarding the while her yellow hair
her clear blue eyes, her red mouth
and white teeth. Suddenly, bending
coward her, he said:
Give us kiss!
She drew back and her blue eyes
as cold as ice, dwelt on him disdaln
fully.
No, she said, my husband and
may be too poor TO pay the rent, bu
we are not so poor that we can't dc
our own kissing "

JOINED The ANGELS
AGNES TAYLOR HAS GIVEN HER
SELF UP TO THEIR KEEPING.

When one, or family. is called upon
to kiss the rod that smites them I'm less
than a year it Is sad to behold!
On last Sunday afternoon the sweet
Spirit Of Agnes Taylor was called
to the God who give it. She was
the daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs, Vastine
Taylor and this is the third daughter
they have lost in less than year, and
they all had reached Young woman
hood and had bright prospects of long
and happy lives; but it seems that
death loves a shining mark. And
they all did 20 about here with sun
shine In their hearts, for they were
all christians who had been washed in
the blood of the lamb
Miss Agnes had been in falling
health for sometime, but no one knew
that the end was so near. She vas
afflicted with that dread disease con-
sumption, and was seen on our streets
just a few days ago.
Her d .ath was a great surprise
TO her many friends an acquainces, IT
is said that her death was a triumph =
ant one. She wanted the watchers to
sing Nearer my God to Thee and w il
there be any stars in my Crown 4.
She clung to her mother ard father
To the last and told them she was
ready to go, and said her sisters had
come for her.
TO the grief stricken family we are
at loss TO find words to express o.,
sympathy.
We can only 80 to one in time OF
trouble and that is the Man Jesus who
can b. touched with feeling of our
,utirmaUieS.
At the tomb of Lazarus it is said
Jesus Wept" and he promises rest to
those who are weary and heavy laden.
lie also says, / am, able to keep those
who have put their trust in me.
May the pail which hangs SO dark
over the devoted IA nifty soon be lifted
and may peace and happiness be theirs
for manyyears to come.
Again, TO one all and who are nov
down in grief. we extend our more
than heartfelt sympathy.
