Just as sure as you shake things our

The things gone wrong will all &c

In the way you have to plod,
Just as sure as you balance accounts.
And set yourself dead straight,
You will find your affairs all right

With nothing to blame on fate.
Now, the best of us in our time and

Get off the track in a way,
And We yield to the world and flesh
ah, yes
To the devil himself, some day.
But the moment comes when we see
the glow
OF the light shine clear and whole;
And, oh, how eager we are to turn
And re-establish the soul!
Just as sure as we do it, men,
AS We look on the truths pure
face,
And cry to the false gods Turing us,
That there is no life out grace
That instant full on our hearts there
falls
The clam of a peace unknown,
And all comes right and we the
dark
And the night and doom have
flown.
Just as sure as we stand UP straight
As the Lord intended againf
just as sure as we catch our breath
And are men with the strength of
just as sure as we leave the dark
And live life right with God,
The things gone wrong will all come

Where He Heard II.

Once there was to be a Salamis
that should make 1t doubtful when
the name was, heard, whether it was
the mother city that was meant or
its daughter in another land. So to-
day when an Italian boy or girl APP
pears in the Boston schools, 1t is UNI
certain whether the child halls from
the Italy OF the Caesars or from
Little Italy" down round North
Square. The author of Panama"
a recent book relating to the 18TH
mus, found the same question arising
in the Canal Zone.
While we were stuck on a mud
bank fighting mosquitoes, an Incl
dent occurred that illustrates how
spervasive Is progress. One of the
deck-hands who looked like an Ital-
ian was enlivening his job Of stitch
ing a patch on pair of overalls by
singing the dukes song from "Rigo-
letto. : And he sang it we'll, He
had rich BARITONE. His voice ev-
identity had not been trained, but he
sang true. Sitting there on dry
goods case, beating time against 1t
with his bare heels, he threw into
his singing large measure of the
airy nonchalance, the very spirit of
the song, that is so often lacking in
the performance of professionals.
Now listen to that" the captain
said. That's the real Latin for you.
Music born in him. ! don't suppose
he can read or write But once,
when he was a. little shaver, back in
Italy, his father took him to the OPP
era in Naples, and he heard some
great artist sing that And he re-
members 1t still; sings it down here
In the jungle without any accom-
paniment but his heels, lot better
than an English or American uni
yersity man could sing 1t with an
orchestra
Let's get him to tell us about it,
! suggested.
The captain called him up, and
asked him where he was born.

Where did YOU learn that song?''

How to Raise the Money.

That Union county New Jersey
editor who proposes to raise $4,000
as his county's share of the Demo
cratic campaign fund, and has al
ready collected $500 of it from his
subscribers, proves what can be done
to finance Just cause, without going
to the usual sources Of supply.
He calculated that $4,000, 900
would be needed for the whole coun-
try, then figured out New Jerseys
share, and finally Union caunty's pro
portion, which he found could be
raised by contributions of 33 cents
from each Democratic voter.
Huge campaign funds are not
needed in any honest campaign, and
when they are raised much of the
money is used in the effort to corrupt
voters And a large part Of it goes
into the private pockets of profess
ional politicians. The people can
finance this campaign, and the Dem
ocratic voters of Union county, New
Jersey, are showing them how.

From our State exchanges we see
that the Bull Moose Roosevelt party
OF this state is pushing their organi-
cation with rapid strides. Mr. Ed.
Juhling, Of this city, was honored in
the convention by being placed on
the State Executive Committee from
Mingo county, and took prominent
part in the convention. The State
was we'll represented and the con-
vention was harmonious. That this
new political move in the state will
have a strong working following
from the old Republican party is ev-
idenced by the general expression
of the people. Certainly the new
party has taken all of the best and
worthiest voters from the old party
and promises to smash machine
methods in West Virginia out of
existence.
