AZrael Tests the Man.

[Rev. DR.. Stephen G. Barnes in the Spring
field Republican,
Thus Azrael spoke to the soul of the Man:
you lodge in world of death,
OF weakness and accident, pain and disease,
That haunt and imperl each breath
Come with me to the land where no sickness
eer comes,
Where immortal abides the soul
Where in strength abundant and ever
renewed
The dream of a man is made whole"
Said the soul of the Man to the Angel who
called
my weakness in Strength has a friend.
There is plan back of chance, there is JOY
spite of pain,
There's a course, with it's goal at the end.
/ would succor the weak, bring comfort to
grief
! Lift the fallen, one by one;
Stand for life in a world that is Swallowed by
death;
Again Azrael spoke to the soul of the Man
You dwell in world of sim
The selfish and cruel, the hateful and foul
Throng about you, and work within.
Come with me to the land where no evil e'er
comes,
Where all holy abides the soul;
Where in beauty and power, in goodness and
truth,
The dream of man is made whole"
Said the soul of the Man to the Angel who
called
, II am weak, but Strength is my friend.
There's the JOY of the brave, of the charge
that wins,
Ofresolve that fights on to the end.
would guard the weak would rescue the
lost,
. With Gods sword would face the foe;
Play the soldiers high part with all mer
good and true,
Sell this life Of mine dear-then CO."
Once more Azraei spoke to the soul of tn
, Man:
= "Above are your Lord and your home;
You see not his face, you hear not his voice
heart-hungry exile you roam.
. Come with me to the land where in glor
abides
: The heaven God made for your soul;
: See the King as he is be a king with hir
there,
;, Where the dream of man is made whole.
d Said the soul of the Man to the Angel VIII
:, called
Not comfortess now we roam
S He is with us Away, to the end of til
b world;
a For my time, here on earth is my home.
" would speak for the Christ, ! would shoV
e forth the Christ,
II To the Christ would bring foe and friend
- With him would work, for this world tina
u he loves
Till his call my exile shall end"

Our Y. M. c. A. Campaign.

Rural Mail on the Road.

The Postmaster General of these
United States has decided that when he
puts in rural delivery carrier he at
once transforms the highway he is to
traverse every week day, post road, in
the sense of the federal constitution.
Congress has power to establish post
roads, and the Postmaster General holds
that when a rural carrier is put to work
his route is post road.
1t follows, therefore, that he has a
right of way on that road, and all other
wagons must get out of his way-even
automobiles and motor cycles. Nothing,
not even an elephant, can lawfully con-
test the right of way with rural de-
livery carrier in the course of his duty.
The Postmaster General has issued an
order that gives his thirty-odd thousand
rural delivery carriers the right of way
on their respective routes. 1t is a serious
offence to interfere in any manner with
the United States mail, even to make a
rural carrier turn to the right or to the
left. Hereafter the rural carrier viii

road Birmingham Age-Herald.

The American colony in Vienna went
down the Danube on July 4 to Pressburg,
where the Magyar kings used to be
crowned, and participated in ball
game. In the team were two of the
immigration commissioners, Senator
Dillingham; and Mr.. Wheeler of Cal
ifornia. The commission is doing lot
of hard work in Southern Europe and
we are glad they took a day off. Our
Austrian exchanges have not yet arrived
so we cannot give our readers Senator
Dillingham's record in the game, but we
feel sure he made hit" as he always
does in whatever he undertakes.
