many provinces, who had joined in

with cold feet and refused nominations
to run for the dominion parliament

It was New Years night. An aged
man was standing by the window. He
mournfully raised his eyes toward the
deep blue sky, where the stars we're
floating like white lilies on the sur
face of clear, calm lake. Then he
cast them on the earth, where few
more helpless beings than himself
were moving toward their inevitable
goal-the tomb. Already he had pass
ed sixty of the stages which lead to
it, and he had brought from his jour
ney nothing but errors and remorse
His health was destroyed, his mind
unfinished, his heart sorrowful, and
his old age devoid of comfort
The days of his youth rose up in a
vision before him, and he recalled the
solemn moment when his father had
placed him at the entrance of two
roads, one leading into a peaceful,
sunny land, covered with a fertile har-
vest, and resounding with soft, sweet
songs; while the other conducted the
wanderer into deep, dark cave,
whence there was no issue, where poi
son flowed instead of water, and
where serpents Kissed and crawled.
He looked toward the sky, and cried
out in his anguish: ooh, youth, re-
turn! o my father, place me once
more at the crossway of life, that I
may choose the better road!" But
the days of his youth had passed
away, and his parents were with the
departed. He saw wandering lights
float over dark marshes, and then dis
appear. Such he said, were the
days of my wasted life!" He saw a
star shoot tiv1n heaven, and vanish

exclaimed; and the sharp arrows a

Then he remembered his early com
panions, who had entered life with
him, but who having trod the paths a
virtue and industry, were now happy
and honored on this New Years
night. The clock in the high church
tower struck, and the sound, falling
on his ear, recalled the many tokens
of the love of his parents for him;
the prayers they had offered up in his
behalf. Overwhelmed with shame
and grief, he dared no longer look to-
ward that heaven where they dwelt
His darkened eyes dropped tears, and
with one despairing effort he cried
aloud, "Come back, my early daysl
Come back!"

it's hopes and fears. On the whole
it has been a good year to the people

crops and good prices have crowned
the farmers efforts. In fact, no
