As much part of the great plan
That with creations dawn began,
As any of the. throng..
Who is thine enemy? the high
In station, or in wealth the chief?
The great, who coldly pass thee by
With proud step and averted eye?
Nay! nurse not such belief.
If true unto thyself thou vast,
What were the proud ones scorn to
A feather. which thou might'st cast
Aside as idly as the blast
The light leaf from the tree.
No--uncurbed passions, low desires,
Absence of noble self-respect-
Death, in the breasts consuming fires,
10 that high nature which aspires
For ever. till thus checked.
These are thine enemies-thy worst.
They chain thee to thy lowly lot;
Thy labor and thy. life accursed
On, stand erect, and from them burst.
And longer suffer not!
Thou art thyself thine enemy!
The great:-what better they than
thou? ,
AS theirs, is not thy will as free?
Has God with equal favors thee g.
Neglected to endow?
~ z*i:ls : :
True; wealth thou hast motifs but
Nor place-uncertain as the wind!
But that thou hast which, with thv
And water, may despise the lust
OF both-a noble mind.
With this, and passions under ban.
True faith, and holy trust in God.
Thou are the peer of any man.
Look up, then; that thy little span
OF life may we'll be trod!

Waterford.
Addressing large meeting of his
constituents in Waterford on January
4, Mr.. J. E. Redmond, MP. expressed
his belief that in twelve months time
the veto of the House of Lords would
be abolished, and Irish Nationalists
ought to help the Liberals in getting
such majority as would enable them
to carry out that abolition. The abol-
ition of the Lords meant Home Rule
for Ireland. The Irish Nationalist
Party would consider it their highest
duty to see Justice done to the Cath
Ollie schools in England.

The parishioners of Carrickedmond
have presented the Rev. p. M'Givney
with farm close to the parochial
house. For the purpose meeting OF
the parishioners from every town
land was convened, over which Jo-
seph Allard presided. 1t was explain
ed there was no land attached to the
presbytery beyond a small garden
and it was felt that the parish priest
should be better provided for The
result Of the meeting was that, on the
proposition of Mr.. Allard, a subscrip-
ton list was opened and large sum
at once justified in buying a small farm
in front Of the parochial house which
they purchased from Gilleland Barry
Hume, to be presented to Father
M'Givney, and the compliment has
given a great deal of satisfaction, as
Father MGivney is locally very popu-

Il suppose So" sighed the foreign
secretary, and, rising, he slipped on
his dressing gown and slippers and de-

The reporter was a mere youth; but,

he had arrived ut with a neighbOring

Elxina Machines and Rivers.


The rivers, once the chief lines OF
intercourse on the earth's surface.
were made to give up their prestige to
the railway. but the new champion OF
travel. the perfected flying machine.
will bring back to the rivers In near
future the credit Of being the high
ways Of commerce and travel. Their
flowing expanses of. smooth water will
offer to passenger and burden carrying
flying machines surfaces from which
to rise and upon which they may de-
scend in safety. And the ocean itself
may yet prove to be the scene OF the
greatest exploits Of the aviator. Some
thing besides his wings sustains the
flying man. 1t is his confidence. back
ed by the confidence Of the people.
Crowds used to gnther to see him fall.
Now they come to see him iy.-Au-

A Twenty Minute Opera.

This Is the age Of hurry. nerves
and impotence" says a Paris letter.
''and the number of people who object
to q four session at the opera. no
matter how gorgeous the surroundings
or artistic the performance. is grow
ing larger daily. This Is true Of Eu.
rope as well as America" Cecilr
Thevenet probably had this fact In
mind when she asked Paul Frank and
Mathe to write an opera for her which
might be produced In full In twenty
minutes. The work has been accom-.
plished. the libretto having been built
upon an incident In the life of Cleo
patra. The writer says. The mu-
sic is good. the dramatic action Wig
0rOus. and the work. regarded as a
whole. will be found complete. en-
jOyable opera. and its rendition will
consume twenty minutes. New York

Tho Fly Dialect.

We have been awaiting the time
when the sporting writer's would take
up awaiting and dignity it with dia-
lect that Is all Its own.
For instance. how is this for mild
example:
1.-THE premier sky pilot to negotiate
the upshOOt was lie Blanc, the pretty
boy from gay Paree. Froggie made n
good getaway and split the ozone
smartly on the first grade. hitting up
the pace to a mile per on the side
swirl over the bunch of briny water
along the east shore.
with his chugger tuned up to D
sharp the parlyvoO put rings around
the high tower and did the swift swal-
low swOop along the ragged edge Of a
chunky cloudlet. Then he moseyed
earthward and. jolting old gravitation
N the short ribs. gently settled down
two hops and a skiplet from the hap
py little hangar where his birdie
makes its nest"
