THE MESSAGE.

/ stood in the morning glad and gay
Breathing the perfume of the day;
Seeing in each bright CLEAN of light
All that was fair and pust and right,
Feeling the joy of a great content
That all was good in the armament.
But at dusk the perfume had passed
away,
Leaving no trace of that perfect day.
Sombrous clouds hung low overhead,
Peace was lost and JOY was dead,
For doubling that had swept my soul
Hiding from sight its beautiful goal;
Every promise that dawned so fair
Had fade das mists in MONDAY glare.
| sought in silence the broken thread
OF peace that fear and doubt had fed
In silence / sought and the word cam,
clear:

UNCONSCIOUS INFLuENcE.

1t is said that among the high Alps
at certain seasons the traveller is told to
proceed very quietly for on the steep
slopes overhead the snow hangs so
evenly balanced that the sound of a
voice may destroy the equilibrium and
bring down an immense avalanche that
will overwhelm everything in ruin in
its downward path. And SO, on our way
there may be soul in the very crisis
of it's mortal history trembling between
life and death, and mere touch OF
shadow may determine its destiny.

He made 1t clear today that he was op-

cndcavors OF the Two departments TO
punish the guilty and To recover The
money wrongfully withheld from the gov

Mr.. Wickcrsham said his experience OF
Legislative inquiries had convinced him
that usually the result of such work was
framing policies for the future rather
than assisting materially in Furnishing the
evil doors and helping To redeem any loss-
