Under Water in an Auto.

From the Kansas City Star.
 W. J. Jones of Kansas City is the spe- cial agent of an insurance company and has Texas, Oklahoma and Western Kan sas to cover" At any season of the year he has to go over hundreds of miles of what are reported to be the worst roads in the country In July. August and September, if there Is much rain. he has had to drive livery horses and bug gies through mud two fees deep in places, and ford many streams Even the main streets in some of oklahoma's towns are pretty bad after rains. So when MT. Jones announced that he had solved the road question, his friends sat up and listened.
 His answer was given in two words motor car.
 Every one laughed
 Motor car! On those roads His friends repeated his words scornfully. But MT. Jones tried it just the same. After two weeks he began to send back pictures showing his motor ear in mud up to the axles and every one waited for hard-luck stories. But no hard-luck stories came only more pictures.
 "For showing customers good time nothing can touch a motor ear. he wrote. And then every one said he was racking his brain to find good points about the motor car There were heavy rains in July and August, but still no hard-luck stories A letter came which said that he had driven his car 6Uoo miles-4O0O of them over Oklahoma anu Kansas roads without tire troubles or break-downs.
 My engine has been buried under wa ter at lords seven times, he added, put I always got across, drained out the wa ter. and went on just before
 Then last week MT. Jont3 shipped ms motor car back to Kansas City and an nounced that he had had a successful season.
 The incredulous friends came to see the car when it was taken to the garage at No 3130 Main street for overhauiing. It was the muddiest car they ever saw. but the engine was in almost perfect con dition Of course. the machinery showed wear. but there were no breaks.
 So Iones laughs last.

THE VOICES.

By James Whitcomb Riley. Down in the night I hear them. The -unknown-unguessed. That whisper and lisp and murmur, And will not let me rest. Voices that seem to question
 In unknown worGs of me, Of fabulous ventures, and hopes and
 dreams
 Of this and the world to be. Voices of mirth and music,
 As in sumptuous homes, and sounds Of mourning, as of gathering friends In country burial grounds. Cadence of maiden voices
 Their lovers blent with these; And of little children singing,
 As under orchard trees. And often, up from the chaos
 Of my deepest dreams. I hear Sounds of phantom laughter
 Filling the atmosphere. But ever and ever the meaning
 Falters and fails and dies And only the silence quivers.
 With the sorrow of my sighs. And I answer: "Oh voices. ye may not
 Make me understand Till my own voice, mingled with you,
 Laughs in Shadowland."

GENIUS.

By Richard A. H. Horne. Far out at sea-the sun was high, While veered the wind, and Tapped the sail We saw a snow-white butterfly Dancing before the fitful gale,
 Far out at sea. The little wanderer. who had lost His way. of danger nothing knew; Settled awhile upon the mast, Then futtered OCT the waters blue,
 Far out at sea! Away he sped with shimmering glee: Scarce seen-now lost-yet onward bornei Night comes.-with wind and rain-and he No more will dance before the Morn,
 Far out at sea. He dies unlike his mates 1 ween: Perhaps not sooner. or worse crossed: And he hath felt, thought, known and seen
 A larger life and hope-though
 Far out at sea!

SAILORS SONG OF HOME.

By Alonzo Rice. No music wins my soul tonight, No person can estrange My fancy as it takes it's flight
 To hills l used to range In transports of a youthful heart
 When life was sweet and gay. And golden gates were swung apart
 In that fair holiday. I see the winding stream of blue,
 The tall, ancestral trees; I hear the notes of birds that WOO,
 I catch the scented breeze That blows across the clover-lands
 Where crimson blooms invite Marauding bees in humming bands To feasts of rich delight. Some say 'tls wrong to dwell among The ruins of the past, The palaces we built when young
 Which were too fair to last: But I would give the world tonight If I could only stand Once more amid the lost delight
 Of that far distant land, Awhile to stand within the spot
 Where rose and lily grew, And say the prayer so long forgot, Which infant lips once knew; think that I could pray once more And set soul at ease Now drifting far from any shore On wild, tempestuous seas!

The granite rocks disorganize
 To feed the hungry moss they bear; The forest leaves drink daily life
 From out the viewless air. There is no death! The leaves may fall, The flowers may fade and pass away They only wait through wintry hours The coming of the May. There is no death, An angel form . Walks OCT the earth with silent tread He bears our best loved things away, And then we call them dead" He leaves our hearts all desolate- He plucks our faire est, sweetest flowers; Transplanted into bliss, they now
 Adorn immortal bowers. The bird-lke voice, whose joyous tones Made glad this scene of sin and strife Sings now in everlasting song,
 Amid the tree of life. And where he sees smile so bright.
 Of hearts too pure for taint and vice, He bears it to that world of light,
 To dwell in paradise. Born into that undying life.
 They leave us but to come again; With joy we overcome them-the same Except in sin and pain. And ever near us, though unseen,
 The dear immortal spirits tread; For all the boundess universe
 Is life-there are no dead.

By James Whtcomb Riley. It whizzed and whistled along the blurred And red-blent ranks; and it nicked the star
 Of an epaulette. as it snarled the word
 War On it sped-and the lifted wrist Of the ensign bearer stung, and straight Dropped at his side as the word was hissed-
 Hatei On went the missile-smoothed the blue Of a jaunty cap and the curls thereof, Cooing, soft as a dove might do-

 breast?
 That sacred hour can I forget Can I forget the hal1owed grove Where by the winding Ayr we met TO live one day of parting love. Eternity will not efface Those records dear of transports past; Thy image at our last embrace; An. little thought we twas our lasti Ayr. gurgllng. kissed his pebbled shore, O'erhung with wild woods, thickenng
 green
 The fragrant birch, and hawthorn hoar, Twined amorous round the raptured The flowers sprang wanton to be prest, The birds sang love on every spray Till soon, too soon, the glowing west Proclaimed the speed of winged day. Still o'er these scenes my memory wakes, And fondly broods with miser care; Time but the impression stronger makes, As streams their channels deeper wear. My Nary dear departed shade! Where Is thy place of blissful rest2 Seest thou thy lover lowly laid? Hearst thou the groans that rend his

FROM 1.-THE GARDEN OF PROSPER

By Algernon Charles Swinburne. We are not sure of sorrow.
 And joy was never sure: Today will die tomorrow;
 Time stoops to no mans lure: And love. grown faint and fretful With lips but half regretful Signs, and with eyes forgetful
 Weeps that no loves endure. From too much love of living,
 From hopes and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving
 Whatever gods may he That no life lives forever; That dead men rise up never: That even the weariest river
 Winds somewhere safe to sea. Then star nor sun shall waken,
 Nor any change of light: Nor sounds of water shaken,
 Nor any sound or sight; Nor wintry leaves nor vernal. Nor days nor things diurnal, Only the sleep eternal
 In an eternal night.
