father died in an insane asylum from
chronic tubercular meningitis con-

Why the Birds Do Not Sing

ly intelligence will solve all mys-
teries-and the supernatural will
not be dreamed of. Nature in some
nebulous form always existed, and
will continue to exist throughout the
countless cycles of eternity. Infnity
is engraven upon all creation, and
it's empire is almighty as it is eter-
nal. Worlds, whether incomplete
and barren or filled with oceans,
mountains and living things, are but
the handiWOrk of Nature.
The light of present day knowl-
edge, the result of the evolution of
all the ages of the past, warrant these
declarations. Abandon them and we
tread upon the domain Of speculation
and enter a field of guess work."
where superstition and tradition
reign. By the ceaseless workings
and mutations of Nature continets
have been belched up from the seas,
and in recent years islands have
arisen from the oceans depths and
sunk again from observation into
their silent deeps. And so it will
continue eternally, and change for
ever. New bards will sing, new
planets in the armament will come
and go and be forgotten.
Oh, Time, thou movest ever on
ward in thy noiseless flight, bringing
to mankind new blessings, new dis
coveries, but robbing those who re-
main of their most dearly priced
treasures! In vain we call upon thee
to halt and spare, but thy laws are
merciless and memorable. Thou
heedest not mans plaintive cries, nor
n oh of h1f
youth and virility can love thee!
Within the waves of thy ruthless
bosom sleeps the voice that sang to
childhood's listening ear the sweet
song of CHOSE evening BELLS" But
long the cold wind and chill blasts
have beat upon her grave! And now
the music of that voice is only
memory of pearls! In the night
time Of the soul, when all is dark, in
fancy we hear that angelic voice and
feel that thrilling touch, and enrap-
tured gaze upon the pages those dear
fingers have touched!
But when the midnight of the soul
has passed, and the mind has re-
sumed it's normal sway, we realize
we have INDUCED in only reminis-
cent dream, and that sweet spirit,
A1hC ChC POI AAOA1 LuO POCoA0 VI
the rose, has gone forever. We speak
to it, but it answereth not; silence
dark as the polar night is the only
response. But in sentient beings the
thinking part of mans economy, his
mind, product of brain, when en-
bodied in deeds, may live after him
and become immortal, otherwise his
best thoughts, noblest sentiments,
loftiest ideas, like the song of the
lark, will perish and vanish into
ether-and vain man with his dreams
of glory, like the beasts of the field,
will lie down and die, returning to
Natures laboratory. 'The dead know
not anything, neither have they any
more reward"
"FOr too much love of living
From hope and fear set free,
We thank with brief thanksgiving
Whatever gods may be,
That no life lives forever,
That dead men rise up never,
That even the weariest river
Winds somewhere to the sea-"
F'Then star nor sun shall waken,
Nor any change of light,
Nor sound of waters shaken,
Nor any sound or sight,

Even a person who cannot read may

Prof. William Swinton said that for

Fiqhtina Disease in Greece.

Consul General George Horton has
made a report from Athens on the
conspicuous work of Greek physicians
in combating the count-y's chief
scourges--malarial fever and tubercu-
losis. An annual average of 1000
persons die each year from the for
mer, while in epidemic years, due to
excessive rains, the number exceeds
5000, which was the case In 1905. The
population of Greece is 2,433,S06. The
people have been interested through
lectures, pamphlets, etc., to fight the
Misunderstanding mosquito by draining
stagnant ponds and throwing petro-
leum on them. A tuberculosis con-
gress will be held at Athens next
year, to which will be invited not
only physicians, but all the mayors
and other prominent people of Greece.
