and stimulates one. but paralyzes and

coop-sY, OLD YEAR.
By Clifford Kane stout.

BY Clifford Kane Stout.
Good-by, Old Year; your mission ends
With midnight chimes and all is done:
The records writ with joy or less,
The deeds fulfilled and guerdons won
Are hung as trophies round thy rime,
And thou are named with olden time.
Forevermore; oh, fateful past,
That saw so much no law can change:
Beginning and the end Of things
That were to be, the new and strange.
The old and worn and bloom and blight
Passed to the dark or born to light.
And, oh, for some happy year;
Sweet wedding bells rang joyously;
Old friends clasped hands and strangers
met.
And sunshine fell so glad and free
On buoyant youth. and smiles were fair.
And laughter bantered pain and care.
Some tears must fall in every year;
Your portion came when grief had sOl
A badge OF mourning on the hearts
OF some whose love could not forget,
And hopefully, without dismay,
They covered friends Of yesterday.
Good-by. Old Year: we regret the New;
When we recall your gifts and COS:
May then double portion show
Thy favors won DER which was, lcst.
Good-by! A hand at parting; then
A benediction and amen.

New Years visiting cards are curiosi-

Except at the Chinese New Year,

hard to catch glimpse of children
in China. Little beggars will run be-
side you for miles to earn one "cash,"

part of a cent; but children who have
parents to care for them seem to be
kept indoors all the time, or only al
lowed to play in walled yards and gar.
dens, writes Bertha Runkle in ST.
Nicholas. We used to say to each

when It grew near the end of the

~, TON Ferguson used to hang
aroand the camp, a mighty saddened
and disconsolate man. The winter
was coming on, when there would be
no wore hunters to guide, and, ponder
over the subject as he would, Tom
couldn't tee any escape from going to
work. This cut him to the heart.
Here are these woods full of lazy
wild animals, Tom said one day bit
terly. any one Of which would, or at
any rate ought, to be proud Of the
privilege of working for honest old
Tom Ferguson. But how to bring
that fact home to their benighted
minde is problem. Now, look at that
