STARLIGHT THROUGH THE sHAD-

THY dear one is with Jesus now!
Seeing him faec to face,
Gazing upon His own beloved brow
Watching FITS smile of grace
Hearing the Masters voice in all It's
swee tIass,
Knowing Him now in all His own
with Jesus now, with him foreverl
Never to. leave. Him-grieve Him
Could GOD Himself given more? His
Is best, though we are weeping still.
He knows!
les, Jesus knows. Just what you can
He understands so welE
The silence of the heart Is heard,
He does not need a single word
He thinks of you.
He watcheth, and He careth too.
He pitietf, Ffe Foveth! All this flows
In one sweet word: He knows!
There shall be no pore pain! Not any
more
All WEAKNESS, all faint exhaustion
No quivering nerve. no aching uncon-
fessed.
No memory of misery to cast
one shadow from the past
Upon the unshadowed splendor OF His
rest
Beloved! God is leading thee to this,
Preparing thee for thy preparing bliss.
The following beautiful poem was
written by Miss Smith a short time
before her last sickness: ~
THE wHrTE-THROAT's SONG.
DO you forget the white-throats tune
Thro leafy vtstas, ringing,
As meath the smiling skies of June
We listened to his singing?
The breath of life was In the breeze
That thro the wood was swelling.
AS ,mongst the kindly, erowding trees
We heard the white-throat telling
God takes care of us, care of us;
God takes care.
can trust in Him, always trust In
Him,
Anywhere"
over and over and over he sings it,
Sweet Is his message and sweetly he
brings it.
God takes care"
You loved the bird. the breeze and all
The ties of earth that hold In thraH
The hearts of man or woman;
And In that country where you are,
Each year. l wonder whether
You listen for that song, afar.
That once we heard together
God takes care of us, care Of US
God takes care.
Hearts NAV trust In Him, safely trust
in Him,
Here as there"
Over and over and over, he sings It,
brings It,
God takes care"
For, others she has tuned the Tyre,
Ana shall the strings today be mute?
All no! They're touched with heavenly
fire
y newer and a fuller note
Thrills thro each string Her welcome
there.

commons by majority Of 1ls. Tne
motion way introduced by Arthur :.
Balfour. leader of the opposition, ana
its defeat is regarded as having failed
to improve the Unionist cause
The eravament Of the opposition's
charge against the government was
that Premier AsQuith had taken ao-
vantagfie Of the kings inexperience TO
bring about an abuse OF the roya'
prerogative by securing the guaran-
tees before the last general election.
Mr. Asouith easily disposed OF this
charge by showing that the minis
ters had pursued an entirely proper
constitutional course. The result
was that after the premier's speech
the debate on the Unionist side VIZ
tually collapsed.

ing driven by their taskmaster, John
Redmond, and that their whole OBJ
| iect was to secure the easy pas

tary for Ireland. challenged Mr.. AS

slider for a moment such an unusua
