 May It's oolors ever wave
 Over freemen tender, bravei t Glimmer through the darkest night, Filling hearts with hope and love. Lifting them to God above.

 Over freemen true and brave. Touch the flag with reverent hand, Let It float OCT sea and lands Emblem of a hope divine, Let it's stars forever shine
 Over freeInen noble. brave;
 Over every hero's gravel Deep within its sacred folds Every flag a message holds, Telling men of brave deeds done, Of fair laurels nobly won
 On life's glorious battlefield
 Where Right conQuers, where Wrongs

 Let us learn this lesson true From the rcd uyb Red for faith and courage rare, Blue for wisdom born of prayer, White, the breastplate worn by youth, Symbol of eternal truthl You have fought beneath that sign, You have led the firing line, When the hosts of error ragged
 Then you guarded flag and land
 By the strength of your firm hand. So we welcome you today,
 And our youthful hearts rejoice To the music of your voice.
 While our souls in prayer are bent. God protect our President. From the dawn-xissed Eastern strand. From the forests, crowned with pine, 1 From the land of eglantine.

ADVENTURES OF SAM LIGHTHEART

Sam Lightheart never went to church.
Tis true though too, It's sad;
(Now, [ don't want you all to think
That Sam was really bad
You see when Sunday came around
Our Sam was mighty tired,
He had to work so hard, you know,
To keep from getting fired
So Sam would sit and read all day
Or go and fish for perch,
And really never thought about
Taking his wife to church.
One Sunday, though while looking through
The Want Ads in The Call
A Sunday Meeting caught his eye
Down in ''some ones hall.
He went and heard sermon true
The choir sang Rock of Ages =

MAN WITH ONE ARM
BECOMES A PRODIGY.
Spurred on by Misfortune, He
Conquers Difficult Arts and In
duStrieS.

ouSSfieSs
The remarkable achievements of
William G. Collins, one armed post
man, who received a presentation at
Rochester on retiring after forty
years service, are worthy of a chap
ter in Smiles Self Help, says the
London Chronicle.
Bereaved of his father, and having
the misfortune to lose his right arm
in a gun accident at an early age, he
set to work to learn to write with his
left hand and became an expert pen
man. He learned shorthand and
taught the art to his brother and his
schoolmaster's son, the former be-
coming a reporter and the latter Off
cial police reporter at Scotland Yard.
Want of means prevented him from
realizing his ambition Of becoming
a schoolmaster, so at the age of nine
teen he obtained an appointment as
a rural postman. His duties left him
free for some hours in the middle of
the day, and this spare time he de-
voted to remunerative work in pho
Biography and -carpentering. He was
a pioneer in small holdings and
farmed an acre of land for pleasure
and profit.
Then he decided to build six
room cottage for himself, being his
own architect. Although he had only
one hand, he first of all moulded
thousands of concrete bricks and
then hrilt tho houSa with them This
task occupied ten years, as he did all
the internal fittings himself.
The introduction of the parcels post
necessitated the use of conveyance,
but Collins was equal to the occasion
and built his own mail cart, which
he painted and vanished with the
skill of an artist

DIDN'T REALIZE
How Injurious Coffee Really Was.

Many persons go on drinking coffee
year after year without realizing that
it is the cause of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
The drug-caff ~ine-in coffee and
tea, is very Ike uric acid, and is Of
ten the cause of rheumatic attacks
which, when coffee is used habitually,
become chronic.
A Washington lady said recently:
Il am sixty-five and have had a good
deal of experience with coffee. l
consider it very injurious and the
cause of many diseases. | am sure it
causes decay of teeth in children.
when 1 drank coffee l had sick
spells and still did not realize that
coffee could be so harmful, till about
a year ago l had rheumatism in my
arms and fingers, got so nervous
could not sleep and was all run down.
AT last, after finding that medi-
cines did me no good, | decided to
quit coffee entirely and try Postum.
After using it six months l fully re-
covered my health beyond all expec
tations, can sleep sound and my rheu-
matism is all gone" There's a Rea-

A Patient Model.

Mr.. Broughton, the English artist,
while sketching in the Alps. was one
day in search of a suitable back
ground of dark pines for picture
he had planned. He found at last
the precise situation he was seeking,
and best of all, there happened to be
a pretty detail in the figure of an old
woman in the foreground. Il asked
the old lady," said Mr.. Broughton,
Ito remain seated until [ had made
a sketch of her. She assented, but
in few minutes asked me how long
! should be. Only quarter of an
hour l answered, reassuringly.
Three minutes or so later she again
asked me-this time with manifest
anxiety-if | should be much longer
oh, not long, 1 answered. But
why do you ask so anziously?' oh,
it's nothing she sadly answered,
only I'm sitting on an ant-hill. -

The Cynic.

A bachelor, who is known among
his friends and their children as be-
ing always in the happiest spirits,
singing gayly and whistling the new
est songs, recently took unto himself
a wife. Hearing the news, the eight
year-old daughter of a house to which
he goes frequently, asked her moth
er, doubtfully:
Wont Mr Smith sing or whistle
any more, mother?"
Why, of course" said the parent,
wondering. "Why?"
Because married people don't
seem to sing much" qouth the cynic,

Bright As Fire.

When Crewe Hall was burning, the
late Lord Crewe, father of the pres
ent earl, displayed humorous equa-
nimity which st. James Budget
deems worthy of preservation in
print. When the historic mansion,
with its works of art, rare manu-
scripts, armor and other treasures,
was blazing away, Lord Crewe order
ed a footman to place table on the
lawn and bring him an inkstand and
some telegraph forms. He then sat
down and composedly wrote this tele-
gram to Street, the Royal Academl-
can:
Dear Street: Crewe ia burning:
come and build it up again.
To his sister he sent another mes
sage by wire:
you always used to say this was
a cold house; you wouldn't say so if
you could see it now"
