The millionaire of to-day looks upon the
world with the consciousness that he is
marked individual. diseredited and despised.
Opportunity no longer is his. The gateway that
leads 10 power and fame is closed ia his face.
The longing for friendship and sympathy gnaws
nnsatisfed al his heart so thinks Mr. Eugene
Zimmerman the multi millionaire Of Cincinnati,
who enjoys in addition 10 bis great fortune
the proud distinction of being the father-in law
of live, duke
Mr. Zimmerman plaintively hewails the fact
that. while millonaires were once the heroes
Of the nation and held up as glorious examples
before the eyes of aspiring youth, now every
body is throwing bricks al them and In the very
necessity OF selfprotection they have been
forced TO retire the rear. He especially be-
means the fact that mllionaires have no longer
any chance in politics Now. instead of clecting
successful men OF affairs to office, the rabble
are electing men who do not possess the ability
to successfully peanut stand-political
incompetents who get the votes.
We do not think the case is bad as il ap-
pears to Mr.. Zimmerman. If he will refresh
his memory he may be able to court few re.
naming statesmen of the moneyed class in
the "millionaires' club few In the diplomatic
service of the country and a few who exercise
considerable influence upon legislation At
least this is ofecurrent rumor. And If he win
review the political history of the recent past
he will discover that the financial interests have
been pretty we'll protected at the national
capital. Indeed there was little complaint ut
tered and the cry for mercy was karey heard
until the Democratic party Glanced to find i
majority in Congress. As long as the Republi-
cans were at the helm the old ship OF state
never coliided with any of the interests OF the
financial world.
Perhaps il Mr.. Zimmerman will pursue the
h subject . bit further he may be copyinced that

My Ships.

BY George Gowen. Mathews Va
From my window looking over
Meadows rich with grass and clover
And beyond the blue and shining,
Dancing waters of the bay,
I can see the vessels blowing
Inward, outward. coming. going
Near at hand or in the distance
Fading from my sight away.
Thus. or heavily, or lightly,
Inward, outward. daily, nightly
Many freighted sail the vessels
In life's ever-c changing sea.
Mine have brought me Joy and sorrow;
Rut | know not for the morrow
What my ships may carry from me.
What my ships may bring to me.

I Would Not Part.

BY Howard G. Miller, Norton. Va.
Were there peaceful sky above me-
No grass beneath my feet
No rose and crimson in the sunset
Where light and shadow meet
Were there flowers in the Wildwood
No song upon the night
No autumn moon beneath the waters.
No star forever bright:
We're there no promise in the future
No place to call my own
With every scene of childhood faded
The hopes Of manhood flown:
I'd be content and would not part
From thy pure love. sweetheart sweetheart.

Two Pictures.

Two Pictures.
For her love my heart is calling
OF the girl love so WELL
AS ] gaze | know, and gladly
Over me twill cast a spell;
But the spell is not appalling
For it is of love sublime
For her owe my heart is calling.
Wistf'ly, calling all the time.
Into her sweet face I'm gazing
Fondy gazing all the while,
Ana to me tt is amazing
= That her lips refuse to smile.
y those lips sweet so Fragrant
Sweeter far than any flower
Named by all the fancies vagrant
AS the sweetest in earth's bower.
Q those eyes. that have SO often
Caused my pulse to holly burn
Coldly gaze and do not soften
Only seem my love to spurn.
80 lay aside that picture
There's another in my MIND:
one that has become a fixture
And this picture is more kind
For this picture shows her smiling,
With the love light in her eyes:
IhuS she weary hours beguiinA
Shows me gimpses of Paradise
Now l hear her voice. I'm list ming
To the sweetest melody
And my eyes with joy are glist'ninx-
Music? Yes. symphony!
All! her love to me she's telling
And my heart is beating fast,
But there comes thought compelling
Me to doubt IL it will last
And | wonder, wonder wonder
How she ever coud love me:
And ponder, ponder, ponder
Ger my past, and bitterly
Should 1t happen that I never
See her beauteous face again
I've two pictures that will ever
Be with me to ease the pain
One with which my mind is garnished
VIII not fade through al the years
Though the other may be furnished
BY the scading of hot tears.
