Whoa Died March 2s. 1908. ONLY A YEAR. One wear ago a ringing voice, A clear gray eye, And clustering curls of sunny hair, Too fair to die f,n1v a. syear.-no voice, no smile, No glance of eye. No clustering crlrls of golden hair, Fair but to die! One year ago-what loves. what
 schemes,
 Far into life, what Joyous hopes. what high re-
 solves,
 What generous strife. Tho silent picture on the wall, The burial stone, or all that beauty, life and joy Remain alone! One year,-one year, one little year, And so much gone! And yet the even flow of life Moves calmly on. The grave grows green, the flowers
 bloom fair,
 Above that head; No soFrowing tint of leaf or spray Says he is dead Nc px1ase or hush of merry birds ThAt sing above Teal us how coIdly sleeps below The form we love. Mhere hast thou been this year, be-
 loved?
 what hast thou seen,- Wz1at visions fair, what glorious life, Where hast thou been? The veil! The veil! so thin. so strong! rTwixt us and thee: The mystic veil! when shall it fall, That we may see? Not dead. not sleeping, not even gone. Hut present still, And waiting, for the coming hour Of Gods sweet will. &lord Of the living and the dead, Our Saviour dear! Wo lay in silence at thy feet Th&o sad, sad year.

IMMORTALITY IS
 HOPES FINEST STAR

(Continued from First Page.)
 Inflame a mans mind with some great hope; fill his soul with some great love; torture his heart with some great grief; and you will make him un- derstaIld how hopelessly inadequate, how pathetically insufficient, are the crucible and the scalpel. and will en- able him to turn trusting eyes upon the great depths of eternity. Logic cannot convince, because men cannot stand upon the same ground nor see with the same eyes. It is the great facts coming into our own lives which convince; and grief and hope and love and death are the greatest of all tacts. The hope of immortality is the grand est star that ever swung across the night of mans dark mind. It has been beautifully said that Belief in immortality is the loftieSt flight of sympathy and the final answer to all that life hold to be cruel and unjust. Science cannot find annihilaton in na- ture. Out of decay came hints of the resurrection. Men suffer, but they cannot perish.
 Let us, then, believe that our de parted friends have earned their rest, and have entered into the peace that mortals can but faintly know; the peace that abideth when the soul is open toward the heavens; the peace that waits upon
 'tThe Lone star and the shadowed
 hush
 That come at evening, when the
 thrush
 Ravels the day, so worn and long, Into the silver of a, song.

FOUR CANDIDATES
 FOR INSPECTOR
Union Masons Arrayed Against Interstate ,Asso- citation in Struggle to Name Man.

Affairs in connection with the as- sistant building inspectorship are shap- ing themselves for one of the warmest fights the Common Council has ever seen in case the mayor signs the re- port of the ordinance committee creat- ing the office, or allows 1t to become a law at the end of 35 days without his signature. So far there are four Republican candidates for the office and many of the aldermen have been seen in their behalf.
 The occupant of the office must be a mason. The union bricklayers and stone masons have given their support to Thomas F. Burns. John Neff and Ward M. Cowles are said to be the candidates of the Interstate Associa- ton. The fourth contestant for the place is Joseph Pacquette who has some support from Interstate assoc! a tion and who is also a member of the union.
 Members of the Interstate Associa- ton do not want the unions candidate to get the job. They believe they will be able to land Neff, or Cowles. if they can have one of them made the caucus nominee.
 Mayor Lee says he is holding up the report of the committee in order to talk the matter over with several per- sons.

for Boy.

is all ready for him to put in the Boys Shop. It is the sort of a suit and a hat that will meet his idea of what is right. It is also the sort that will meet your notion of what your money ought to buy. It is good value as well as good style. In fact it is better value than you have been used to getting for your money. It is, in other words, the sort of value which has made the Boys Shop one of the most-iked places in the store. The suit at $5 is a fair il-. lustration. We pick this price because it is a liked price when a good suit is be- ing bought. In this store, the $5 suit is a wonder. It is excellent fabric to begin with. It is made especially well. It has good lines and good lining. It is so tailor ed that it will hold it's shape. And then, to finish up, it has two pairs of trousers instead of the usual single pair.
 Every suit is a. Double service suit. Each one will give extra wear because 1t possesses two pairs of tfous- CTS.
 Yes, these suits are such as sell in other stores usual l ly for at least $1 or $1.5o more. But here they are, in many color effects and in varied style and in all sizes, at $5 We've some special straw hats just now. Yes, straw! It is the opening of the sea son for small boys straw hats. And here we are with a lot of them at much less than real value.
 Milan and novelty straw braids, white red hl11e and brown, in a dozen different shapes and sizes. trimmed in contrast and with taste. They are worth $1 to $1.5O. Choose at 75c

Hat-beauty.

Even the most-exaggerat- ed hat-styles of the season can be given real beauty by a skillful designer. They can be so deftly trimmed and so cleverly fashioned that they will impart distinctive grace to the wearer. Not always is it easy to do this; but it can be done. It has been done in the hats that are a part of the Rowland collec- ton and that show most-dic- tinctively the shapes which are chased as most-pronounc- ed.
 This collection of spring hats is, by the way, the best that ever the store made. A lot of folks have been good enough to say it is the best they ever saw hereabouts. It is complete. It is full of ex- amples of good style. It fairly brims over with illus trations of taste and judg- ment in the combining of |colors and materials. It is full of individual hats; hats that will appeal to women as planned especially for them.
 Value for price is another feature. This store aims to give g good moneys worth for every dollar spent in mil linery, as in all other sorts of merchandise. How well it is doing, you can best tell by inspecting the hats and then looking at the prices they bear. That will tell the story.
 It is fine time now to choose. Sales-folks can give you careful attention. There are lots of hats to choose from. And if none suits. there is ample time to plan and make one exactly in ac- cord with your ideas.
