BECAUSE OF HER.

BECAUSE OF HER.
With bare brown legs and faded ging-
ham gown,
I saw her first-a lovely little girl
Her slender fingers clasped within my
own,
With low sweet laughter, set my heart
awhirl
From out her wondrous eyes OF dark
est blue
Shone forth a soul all pure and un-
defiled
And all things young and beautiful
took on
An added charm because she was a
child
Again l saw her as a maiden grown,
A half-op'd blossom, whose rare grace
fulfilled
The promise of the bud, and yet gave
hints
OF greater glories, when, if God so
willed
The half-grown rose should ope to
fullest flower,
brought my gifts of frankincense and
myrrh,
To lay them at her feet; and evermore
l reverenced Womanhood, because of
Her.
And now watch her rocking to and
fro
And grooming low with the dimming
light
A tiny head is pillowed on her arm.
A tiny form is cuddled warm and tight,
A glow is on her face--a light me-
thinks,
That never on the land or sea did rest,
All Motherhood is sacred now to me
Because it is my baby at her breast.
Mabel Stevens Frier in Ainslee's

paralyze the whole country, for they
can control its currency and create a
panic whenever they will"
On the other hand, 1t must be re-
membered that labor in it's attempt
to defend it's interests has to a great
degree justified the impression now
extent that, as monopolistic force,
it is treating capital with spirit of
revenge and intolerance, also that
the labor combines seriously affect
those toilers who may not be in the
same, thus bringing in disorder and
putting to naught property as well as
individual rights. Fomer President
Roosevelt's words on this point are
noteworthy:
ours is a government of liberty, by,
through, and under the law. Lawless-
ness and connivance at law-breaking
whether the law-breaking take the
form of crime of greed and cunning
or of a crime of yiolence-are de-
structive not only of order, but of the
true liberties which can only come
through order. If alive to their true
interests, rich and poor alike will set
their faces like flint against the spirit
which seeks personal advantage by
overriding the laws, without regard
to whether this spirit shows itself in
the form of bodily violence by one set
of men or in the form Of vulpine cum
ming by another set of men"
Instead of labor resorting to vio-
lent means to obtain justice, the
Lord counsels, BE We also patient;
stablish your heart; grudge not one
against another, brethren, lest ye be
condemned
1t is claimed that legislation will
end the struggle, but we believe this
is mistake. Legislation may ameli-
crate conditions to an extent; but, ow-
ing to selfish interests and selfish
purposes manifested on the part OF
both capital and labor, it will require
greater ingenuity and power than hui
mainly can possibly afford to bring
about an agreement between them.
In the language of the author of Ed
ucation:"
Were the principles of Gods laws
regarding the distribution of property
carried out in the world today, how
different would be the condition of
the people! An observance of these
principles would prevent the terrible
evils that in all ages have resulted
from the oppression of the poor by
the rich and the hatred Of the rich by
The poor. While it might hinder the
amassaing of great wealth. it would
tend to prevent the ignorance and de-
graduation of tens of thousands whose
ill-paid seryitude is required for the
building up of these colossal fortunes.
1t would aid in bringing peaceful
solution Of problems that now threat
en- to fill the world with anarchy and
bloodshed."
Deal with the subject as we may,
the opinion is fastening itself upon
many students of the question that
the only effectual remedy will be that
outlined by the Apostle James: RE
Patient therefore, brethren, unto the
coming of the Lord The second
coming Of Christ, therefore Is the en-
I ly sure solution Of this great contro-
versy. K. C. RUSSELL.
