The TALE OF WONOROUS LOVE
By THEODORE H. BoICE.

BY THEODORE H. BOICE.
Down through the cycles hoar with age.
Through all the years Of storied time.
Has come the tale Of wondrous love.
Shown forth in sacrifice sublime
The story of the Christ who came
And for time grief's burdens bore.
Who felt the bitterness Of death
And rose to live forevermore.
He came to lift fallen race
Borne down by sin and grief and care.
He opened wide the door of hope
For those who CROPPED In dark despair.
He wiped away the mourners' tears
And gave them eyes Of faith to see
The pearly mansions for them reared
And theirs for all eternity.
For sinful man he gave up life.
And on the shameful cross he died.
The crowning sacrifice Of love
Through ages to be glorlfed.
He broke the seal and bonds of death
And rose In triumph from the grave.
He reigns again as King of kings
And welcomes those he came to savA
And so with eyes of faith we look
Beyond the shadows OF the tomb
And see the pearly mansions gleam
Beyond the intervening gloom.
We see the dear ones who have crossed
The vale and reached the heavenly goal.
And thought Of fond reunion there
Is giving comfort to the soul
Rejoice and let oil hearts be glad!
Let sorrows tears be wiped away.
Join In hozannas to the Lord.
Who rose from night to endless day.
For he has triumphed over death.
And he has opened wide the door
To thai Lri"ht realm ~ endless. life.

Mrs. Harwood came to TIE church In
the late afternoonfn high dudgeon and
demanded an apology for the mistreat-
ment of her guest Mr.. Winslow was
extremely courteous and pacific. but he
would not express any regret for what
he had done.
''The man was abusing the horse"
he said. Il was obliged to interfere.
and did so as gently as possible"
None of the Harwoods, none Of the
villa set. attended the Easter service
In st. Pauls. but the congregation
was the largest that had gathered In
the church within two years.
On the Tuesday following Mr.. Wins.
low called at the Kelvin house In the
evening.
II have received word from Mrs.
Morton Harwood," said he. that she
has withdrawn from st. Paul's, at
least for as long as l remain pastor.
INthese circumstances ! think 1t best
that there should be meeting called
for the purpose of expressing our sim
cere sense Of obligation to Mrs. Har-
wood for her many benefactions to the
church and our regret at here with
drawal and also for the purpose of
raising Immediately the money to re-
pay her advances"
Kelvin was staggered.
"Can we do it?" he gasped.
"Mr. Kelvin" said the pastor, 1--WE

thoroughly. and that is what is the
matter. When you lost heart for a
moment after a series Of nlisfortunes

Understand me. | will not hear one
word against Mrs. Harwood. She
meant well. But insist that America
is not the place for this sort of thing.
1t is place where people act for
themselves and bear their own bur.
dens. So must we live here in this
land or perish, souls first and bodies
afterward. We hear too much Of
great gifts The whole community Is
becoming an object of charity. We
stand with waiting palms like lackeys.
But my face shall be against this in
the small circle where ! have influ-
ence. Let us got together. we who own
this church, and pay for it. Now. at
this good time Of year, this season Of
spiritual rebirth. will you join with
me and draw your friends after you
to make our church live again."
The two men clasped hands In 81
lence.
At the meeting, which was called at
the pastors request, there were but
two notable men who were missed.
One of them was known to be i'll. and
the other was his physician.
II am sitting with Brother Barnes"
wrote the latter in note which was
read at the meeting, ''as the only sure
way Of keeping him in bed, where he
belongs. Otherwise he would certain
ly be with you. Upon the money
question, put us down as follows
and the sums named were liberal.
Within an hour the amount required

The young pastor took of his hat
and looked upward for moment to
the sky.
"Do you know me?" he asked sud
denly. do you know me thoroughly
and like me well-well enough to let
me steal the jewel from your house If

Harwood that Count Kassimir should
sing in st. Paul's at Easter.
The count had been gaining flesh

subject of considerable exaggeration.
1t was the afternoon Of the Thursday
before Easter. The church was open
and some ladies Of the congregation
were arranging floral decorations. Mrs
Harwood had desired to have deco

pay the charges, but Mr.. Winslow had
insisted upon home talent.

ing and then halt. He came whirling
into the semicircular roadway that led
from the street to the church door
with an astonishing clatter Of hoofs and
with results very surprising to himself.
At that moment one of the Kelvin
boys, superintended by Annie. was
wheeling barrow laden with potted
plants along narrow strip Of boards
that had been laid upon the mud. The
rushing steed came up unseen behind
the boy, who lodged for his life, up
setting the barrow, from which great
mass of pots and flowers rolled under
the horses feet
The animal SHE'D like zigzag fash

straight on through the air. landing
on oil fours without serious damage.
He was up in an instant, but the horse
had vanished around corner Of the
church. In this direction. however,
there was no exit. and the animal was
not quite scared enough to dash him
self against a stone wall. He stopped.
and Kassimir caught him and began
to beat him numerically.
At this there was an outcry. and Mr.
Winslow, with others. came running
from the church. The clergyman un-
derstood the situation ut glance. He
laid an iron hand on Kassimir's arm.

THE FINAL CHAPTER
IN REMARKABLE CASE
r. w. Duke Loses in Long Fight FOR
Liberty aud Goes to the Peni-
tentiary-Convicted of
Murder.
Associated Press Special.

ASSoCIdItu ICoS oPCSio.
San Antonio, Texas, March 16.--
There was a pathetic side to the
start of E. w. Duke to the peniten-
tiary yesterday to serve sentence of
| fifteen years for killing Walter Evers
| in July 1908. Duke made a deter
| mined fight to keep out Of prison,
alleging with most profound earnest
ness that the murder was case of
self defence of the most pronounced
type. His case has been fought thru
all the courts of Texas, but fate, 1t
appears, was against him. The
court of last resort sealed his doom.
Through it all he has stood up in a
most determined manner at no time
believing that he would not ultimate
ly be indicated. Yesterday when he
left the county Jail in company with
others, he said to his attorney, Car
los Bee: "You will take charge Of
my clothing and keep it for me, for
I'll need it when / get out. If /
have to serve the entire sentence,
the clothes may be out of style, but
I'll need them just the same. After
serving fifteen years in a Texas
prison. a man will need everything
that the world holds to make him
contented with life and himself
Selling Bee by the hand, he shook
it in a most feeling manner, but
when he said goodbye there was a
huskiness in his voice indicating that
something in his throat made it diff
cult for him to talk and as he turn
ed away there was dampnes3 in his
eyes. This was the first time in the
long fight that Duke had made in
an effort to gain his liberty that
hope seemed to have deserted him
for a time. His has been one of
the most remarkable cases ever
tried in a Texas court.

FLIES AND MOSQUITOES.

In the current issue of the Sale
an insurance journal, DR.. J. S. Lank-
ford takes strong ground against the
! use of screens as means of warding
off flies and mosquitoes instead of go
/ ing straight to the point and extermi-
Mating these and other disease-carry-
| ing insects.
| The doctor asserts that it costs
| fifty times more to provide screens
| than it would to exterminate the
pests they are designed to provide
against, and adds: with our pres
! ent knowledge it is absolutely mex
cusablc for intelligent and forceful
people to suffer the discomforts and
the awful suffering, death and sor-
row that is wrought by the fly and
the mosquito. An ordinary stable
boy knows how to prevent the gener-
alton of the fly, and yet the most in
telligent citizen will allow flies to
generate and to bring into his home
on dirty feet the awful germs of ty-
phoid fever, septicemia, anthrax,
tuberculosis and scores of other dis
eases, with death and desolation. y
DIR. Landlord, who is medical di-
rector of the insurance company
has come for insurance companies,
in their own interest to become con-
SENATORS of the public health and to
take the lead in sanitary matters.
The malarial season is coming, and
tuberculosis is always with us,
Shall insurance companies continue
to pay a tribute of hundreds OF mil
lions of dollars to these two gods Of
devastation in the face of known
methods of prevention" he asks,
We cannot answer for the insur-
ance companies, though certainly 1t
must be very much to their interest
to protect as far as possible, the
health of those whose lives they
have insured. But we know it is
the duty of the city authorities to do
everything in their power to protect
he lives and the health of the citi-
of whom are not insured
land that it is the interest and the
luty of all the citizens to take every |
,recaution against sickness and dis
ase. 1t means a saving of expense, |
ather than its increase. and II
means more TO comfort and happi-
ess than anything else, for nothing
an take the place of health.
There is no excuse, except mao
ence or unwillingness to do what
ught to be done, for the federation
