The Old harm House.

The Old farm louise.
SereIely humble, Sweetly quaint,
The old farmhouse stands mid
the trees;
The spangled sunshine streaming
through
The windows open to the breeze.
The grass clinGs closely round its
base,
The roses Chamber DER the caves,
The door, with welcome, opens wide
And ev'ry wand'ring guest re-
ceives.
Humble it is, and yet how fair,
AS midst the grasses, trees and
flowers
1t stands, in settled quietude.
While pass the swift and change
full hours.
And all its outward charm is drawn
From the great peace which
dwells inside;
For underneath its old gray roof
Honor, Content and Love abide.

PERSIAN PARLIAMENT
STILL UPHOLDS SINISTER

1 TEHERAN. Dec. l5-News from
Kasbin that the Russian soldiers had
turned more than 1000 Persians out
OF their homes TO make quarters for
the cars troops is being bitterly de-
nounced in mass meetings today.
Speakers are eXhorting citizens 10 re
main loyal 10 w. Morgan Shuster, the
American treasurer-general, and are
denouncing England almost as bitter
~ as Russia.
Great indignation was caused here
today by the receipt Of telegram
from Kasbin that several OF the evict-
ed Persians had frozen 70 death in
the snowstorm last night. Also il was
stated that the lives OF police officers
at Kasbin were threatened by the
Russian soldiers.
A deputation waited on members OF
parliament today urging them 10 pay
no heed TO the cars ultimatum con-
corning Shuster.
Assurances were given that parlia-
ment had no intention OF resembling
it's former action when il refused TO
dismiss Shuster.
The boycott against Great Britain
is growing. The feeling is general
that had not Sir Edward Grey, British
minister Of foreign AFFAIRS, backed up
Russia in her ultimatum a compro-
mise would have been effected.
