OUR OWN.

II ! had known In the morning
How YEARLY al the day
The words unkind
Would trouble my mind
I said when you went away.
! had been more careful. darling.
Nor given you needless pain;
But We vex Our own"
With look ana tone
We might never take back again.
For Though IN the quiet evening
You may give me the kiss Of peacc,
Yet Il might be
That never for me
The pain Of the heart should cease.
How many go forth in the morning
That never come home al night
And hearts have broken
For harsh words spoken.
That so-row can neier set right
We have careful thoughts for the stranger,
Ard smiles Tor the sometimes guest.
But Oft for orr own
The bitter tone
Though We love Our own the best.
All, lips with the curve inpatient
All, brow with that look Of scornl
'Twere a cruel fate
We're the night too lste
To undo The work os morn.

TO inclose about $50 acres. The fence
was built during the fall Of 1905. and in
the spring Of 1910 1000 head Of ewes were
LANDED in the inclosure.
In the vernaculsr OF the herder. 100 per
cent Of the lambs were saved: that IS. a

the work. I think the percentage Of
lambs would have been higher, but one

it was not a coyote. but as tracks Of that

the animal was. Il raised its young IN

were killed. a small hole being eaten

MIDDLE CREWS WINNERS.
Navy Makes Clean Sweep Against
Three Rivals.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. May 1.-THE Navy
carsmen made a clean sweep this after
noon when, on the inner course on the
Severn with their crews pitted against
three outsiders, the midshipmen captur-
ed all of the races scheduled.
The big race of today was between the
Navy varsity and the Big Eight from
Columbia. which contest Navy captured
by slightly over three lengths. The race
was pretty one and the Columbia crew
pulled for all there was in them, but
could not stand the pace set by the Mid
shipmen. who proved conclusively that
the shake>u up Coach GlendOn was forced
to give them was a good thing. The
navy crew was much better one than
was defeated by Harvard two weeks ago.
The time was A. minutes ~ As seconds
over two-nile course.
Before the big race was rOwed the
navy fourth class crew easily defeated
the eight of the Philadelphia Central
School over mile-and-a-half course, the
winning eight doing the distance in I
minutes AZ So seconds. Immediately
after this event had been disposed of
the Navy third eight rOwed the Arundels
eight of Baltimore, winning in minutes
271k seconds.
The marked improvement in the Navy
eight over the showing made against
Harvard two weeks ago has raised the
midshipmen's hopes high for the rest of
the season, as Coach Glendon seems to
have hit upon a decidedly good combina-
ton.
