JULY: THE YEARS SWEET
HEART.

All things beautiful love her:
The butterflies light and fleet,
The branches that bend above Fer.
The MOSES that kiss her feet:
The ripening grain in the meadow,
The birds singing sweet and near.
The opened flowers in the shadow,
The brook with its ripple clear:
The bee In his clover sleeping,
The locusts that drone and whirr,
The rain from the hills down-sweep
ing,
And the clouds-are in love with
heri
For she, oh. the shy newcomer,
So dear TO the world, so dear!
Is the heart of the heart of summer
And sweetheart of all the year.
The Windswept Wheat.

When at their best, the saints all
along have had habit of singing
when they met. singing while wor-
shipping together, and singing when
they parted. And we are told that
they will all sing together in the gen.
eral assembly and church of the first
born. Let such as can sing keep in
tune now. Let all make melody in
their hearts unto the Lord. The love
that is in the heart of the believer
now gives the keynote of the new
song that will be sung over there
Selected.

MY HOUSE BY THE SIDE OF THE
ROAD.

MY HOUSE BY THE SIDE OF THE
ROAD.
There are hermit souls that live
Withdrawn
In the place OF their self-content; |
There are souls, like stars, that dwell
apart,
In a fellowless armament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze
their paths
Where highways never ran;
But let me live by the side OF the
road,
And be friend to man.
Let me live In a house by the side OF
the road,
Where the race of men go by;
The men who are good, and the men
who are bad,
AS good, and as bad, as I.
| would not sit in the scorner's seat,
Or hurl the cynics band:
Let me live in a house by the side OF
the road,
And be a friend to man.
| see from my house by the side of
the road,
BY the side of the highway of life,
The men who press with the ardor or
hope,
The men who are faint with the
strife
But turn not away from their
smiles or their tears,
Both parts of an infinite plan;
Let me live in my house by the side
OF the road
And be a friend to man.
I know there are brook-gladdened
meadows ahead,
And mountains of wearisome
height,
And the road passes on through the
long afternoon,
And stretches away to the night
But still 1 rejoice when the travellers
rejoice,
And weep with the strangers that
Nor live in my house by the side oil
the road
Like a man who dwells alone.
Let me live in my house by the side
of the road,
Where the race of men go by;
They are good, they are bad, they
are weak, they are strong,
Wise, foolish and so am I.
Then why should I sit in the scorn
er's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban?
Let me live in my house by the side
of the road.
And be a friend to man.

SHE TOLD 1T TO HER CARD-CLUB

The little lad who was the Joy of
the household had been regularly to
Sunday-schoOl. He had caught some
ideas from the lessons to which he
listened, and was struggling to relate
them to his own life and its life and
environment. Doubtless he had
thought frequently of problems which
big folks imagine boys never face.
In a serious mood he came to his
mother one day.
Mamma, were you on earth when
Jesus was here?"
Why. no, of course not, laddie.
Whatever put that idea into your
head?" And she proudly caressed
the sober face.
Well, did you ever see Jesus?"
he persisted.
mo, l never saw Him as peaple
did who lived then"
After a time the questions con-
tinued: as Jesus ever coming again,
mammal"
Yes, l think So"
And, If He comes, will you be
glad to see Him." said the boy.
Eyes. we shall all be glad to see
Him."
Again the little questioner is alb
sorbed in meditation. He is engaged
in the disturbing and difficult task of
relating conduct to profession. Where
they fail to match, who shall say he
is too young to understand the mean
ing of deficiency in conduct? How
oft are men judged by their large
professions and their little deeds!"
Almost relentlessly the uncon-
scious child pursues the mother. eff
Jesus should come to our house,
would you stay at home to meet
Him."
'tOf course" she answered alb
ruptly.
But, mamma, suppose He should
come on the day your card-club
meets, would you stay at home to
see Jesus?"
Not only is it true that "a little
child shall lead Them" but often
does child lay bare the predomi-
nant passion of a parents life
Stripped of all DISCUSSES it stands out
in all its naked ugliess and pretence.
Then men and women would gladly
conceal its hypocrisy, and silence the
messenger whose surgeon-hand laid
open the disease within. We forgive
the child his innocent frankness
when We might be tempted to carry
hostile spirit toward one who was
Older. Thank God for these sweet,
keen, and kind messengers who
come to measure and bless our lives.
This mother Immediately began to
see what had first place in her life.
In theory and sentiment Jesus Christ
was Lord and King. In practice He
received the fag-end of her time and
ability. Before the members of the
card-club the next day she confessed
that nothing had so stirred her con-
science as child's straight question.
Was it worth while, this passionate
rush for pleasure? Was there no 9TH
er employment, helpful to humanity,
that would yield days pay of salts
faction? Could she justify the use
of her energy to please herself alone?
Liberty to do as she pleased was obi
cation to do as she ought Christ
pleased not Himself. A great vision

The New Phillips.

suV SNS"
Certainly nothing too good can be
said of the present bill at the New
Phillips theatre. Try as one might, he
could not go into vaudeville anywhere
and find it surpassed. The mysterious
act, at the climax of the bill. makes a
fitting send off for a line Of acting
that is all we'll balanced. Ed J. Lee
is becoming noted for this act and If
he continues to make the impression
elsewhere he made here. he no doubt
has a wonderful future before him.
1t Is no con talk when it is stated
that Massey and Kramer have one of
the best musical and comedy acts 60
ing. The performance on the clarinet
is we'll worth the time Of anybody and
all musicians should hear and see it.
Both of these people are exceptionally
strong.
But wonders have not ceased when
you see and hear pretty little Miss
Violet Lancaster. One act this sweet
girl has is worth more than the price
of admission. She plays on violin.
but it is an optical illusion. the result
Of which makes you marvel indeed.

AS TO THE SODA FOUNTAINS

yesterday was hot and the soda
/ fountains did big business. Being
human and hot the writer went into
two dispenseries of liquid refresh
ments.
Both OF these were in striking con-
trast to the other. One: the whole
place was clean, the counter carefully
wiped oft was actually dry. The
walters and attendants were also clean
the straws were protected in case
which made it impossible for the
hands or the flies to get at them at
the business ends. And by the way
there were few flies in the place. One
has feeling that back Of the counter
It was Just as clean as 1t was in front.
The other: a breeding place and
harborer of germs! The flies were
every where. The boy who was soda
clerk. was sweaty, sloppy and dirty
handed The counter was flooded
the glasses were smeary-five bowls
Of fruit syrups were toasted on by the
common drug store fly and straws
were all OF them dirty ended and fly
specked-to the naked eye. Back OF
the counter were brass fixtures from
which the nickel has been absent for
some years and the whole was cover
ed with the unappetizing green of ver-
digris.
A group of small children was en-
gagged In alternately sucking the con-
tents of glass through some of these
same straws and batting away at the
flies which the exposed syrups attract
ed.
Which one Of these places do you
patronize?
And also Mr. Soda Water Dispenser,
which place do you keep?
We have lingering remembrance
OF state law which applies to unsani-
tary conditions but Of course the SAT-
est way is to pick out the clean place
to trade. II 1t means a half block
walk or more.
When the sales of the soda people
who run unsanitary places are affect
ed It will mean more than half heart
ed warning to clean up from the au-
thorities.

THE MESS AT THE REFORMA TORY


Down at the reformatory, II the re-
ports have it right there is nasty
mess Of graft and abuses in all the
departments. There has been some
disposition on the part OF some papers
to see political effect in the action Of
Governor Marshall. 1t is better that
the papers should withhold judgment
on these cases even in the case of
Barnard. Sharp, Whitaker and others
until the governor has gotten to the
bottom
As for the governor it is better that
he be encouraged to get to the bot
tom and censured II he does not That
is the surest way of getting Justice
for all those concerned. It is relief
to think that this is not in campaign
times so that there will be injustice
done for the mere purpose of having
a little buncombe to shout about on
one side or the other. The people
are more interested in honesty in the
methods Of the management OF the
state Institutions than in political jab-
