My feet have never pressed
The wales and hills, o Sireland,
Where my fathers keep their rest.

To mo outside the pale,
But in my heart is something call

Ever calling to the Gael;
Yea, the blood of me is calling to

And my heart within has cried;
I have traced your annals, CORY
With the blood of them that died.
IT'S the story of an alien land
That draws from me the wall;
Yet in my heart is something CALL

Yea, the blood of me il calling to the

Your kiss may never feel;
Upon your shore, o Sireland,

Oh, I'm leal to my Columbia,
With love that cannot fail.

Ever calling to the Gael;
Yea, the blood of me is calling to

Haste and Hurry,

Haste is one thing, and hurry is
quite another. Haste, like a railroad
train. goes straight and swiftly on
Its way to its terminal. Hurry, like
an aeroplane in a counter current or
buffeted by head winds, goes zigzag.
Haste helps. Hurry is but hap
hazard. 1t is usually the fretful mind
that seeks to do things in a hurry.
The trained mind hastens method
ically. Speed is not necessarily de.
termined by the number of times the
wheel goes around. There Is such a
thing as lost motion. Or the belt may
be slipping.
Hurry merely marks time, while
haste marches directly into camp.
Ordinarily there is no call for either
haste or hurry, but when the urge is
on every force must be marshaled
and swift results are brought about
by making haste.
Behind the work must be the care
full. predetermined plan and the reso-
lutte, resourceful mind which accur.
ately aims the efforts, but there must
be no hurry.
Hurry misdirects energy. Hurry
makes friction. Plan your job in adj
vance. Go at it calmly and with re-
serve power. Be sure you are right,
and then go ahead - swiftly, accur.
ately. grimly, intelligently. But what
ever YOU do, do not hurry.

OIL POWER ON THE OCEAN
Success Of internal Combustion En-.
CINE May Cause Revolution In
Shipping Industry.

A great revolution in the shipping
industry probably unequaled in any
period Of it's history, was predicted
in recent interview in London by
Sir Marcus Samuel, head of the Shell
Trading and Transport company, ow.
ing to the success of the internal COM
bust1on engine as motive power for
vessels. "
1T insures," he said, "a saving in
cost and great saving Of space,
weight and crew. Cleanliness would
be increased and also the comfort of
passengers. 1t would insure safety
from boiler explosions and spontane
GUS combustion and many other ad
vantages.
"Those who argue about the in.
creased cost Of oil do not understand
You must remember that one ton of
oil is equal to four tons Of coal and
that the larger power internal combus..
ton engine makes for greater economy
in using oil. think it is a great pity
the United States, with it's immense
oil resources, is not taking a more &C,
tive part in the development of the
internal combustion marine engine
and that the largest oil company has
not done more to encourage the trade.
AS an instance. this oil company
went to Roumania, but from one point
Of view it was singularly unsuccessful.

He was Abe Martin in the flesh
from his brogan square-toed shoes to
the three hairs awry at the crown OF
his head and his homely philosophy.
"Hullo there, Abe," said Deputy
Prosecutor McCarty, scanning in as.
tonishment the leaned figure. How'd

Judge Collins looked him over from
head to foot Abe grinned good ma.

As to Fate.


Cora Harris, author Of 1.-THE Re
cording Angel" makes some keen OBJ
servations on the destinies of human
beings in general. One of the repre-
sentative bits of her philosophy fol-
lows: Z.
'The biography of humans is made
up more Of what they plan to do
than Of what they really achieve, If it
is set down literally. You work hard
with a certain aim in view. You pur-
pose to arrive with your collateral all
properly arranged for the event. 1t is
clear sailing Then fate takes the
gripes and inadvertently kicks you
under the fifth rib; and there you are,
set back about ten years. Your grand
mother died without leaving you the
inheritance you had every reason to
expect. You have to get up and make
your own fortune. Or, the ballots are
counted, and you are cot elected. You
have to run again. God sees to it
that you do not butt the stars every
time you fetch a surge. 1t is provi-
Dental precaution against your de-
struction of the solar system"

To Discuss Wide Range of Topics.

Brussels, Jnue 28.-The perma-
nent committee of the international
Conference of Chambers of Commerce
assembled here today to decide upon
a list of topics to be discussed at the
meeting of the conference to be held
in Boston next September. The pur-
pose of the conference is to facilitate
the commercial intercourse of ma
tions, and to promote cordial rela-
tionship among them. The coming
session will be the first ever held in
the United States. 1t will give con-
sideration to number of important
questions affecting international COM
mercial relations. The establishment
of a permanent international court
of arbitral justice, uniform laws con-
corning exchange and bank checks,
international postal reforms, the reg
ulation of international expositions,
international cooperation for the
unification of agricultural statistics,
and the compilation of program for
international maritime union are
among the subjects slated for consid-
GRAFTON at the Boston meeting.

Fashion a Shy Bird.

Fashion is shy bird, and an OBJ
servant critic has noticed that tall
ors are not advising the frock coat
and fancy waistcoat, which are becom-
Ing unpopular because Mr.. Seldom
was so dressed in the dock. The
passing of the frock coat will be well
coined by many, and by many who do
not remember the execution of Mrs.
Manning in 1849, who swung in black
satin, and made. that material unfash-
lonable for many years. There is an
opening for reformers who wish to
change the fashions and are willing
to go to the stake for their belief.
One can foresee a woman who will
commit murder in order to be hang
ed in hobble skirt, so that there
shall be no more hobble skirts in the
fashionable world. And the enthusi-
astic vegetarian might kill some 9TH
er donkey and die in leather boots,
with the idea of bringing vegetable
boots into fashion. There are many
possibilities for the reformers who
will consent to wear the wrong clothes
on the right occasion.-London Chron-
tcle.

Heads,

Never try to tell anything to a boy
who has gone to these modern public
schools. Why, those institutions OF
learning teach more things that you
ever heard Of when you were young
that you've never heard of since you
were not young.
Here's modern instance:
A six-year-old boy was taken to the
zoo last Sunday by his forty-year-old
father. They saw the elephant, they
saw the monkeys. they saw the OK.
Finally they got to the archaeological
collection, The kid noticed an inter
esting bird in the eagle cage, and he
asked:
Papa, what's that bird?"
Papa looked at the label and replied,
"That is an Austrian eagle"
'G'wan!" said the boy; 1T amt no
such thing" -
Eyes it is-k says so in the cata-
logue." ~..
IT don't care what 1t says in tn
catalogue. I got eyes. This here bird
amt got but one head. TIL Austrian
eagle has two heads, and I know fer
I've saw pitcher of it on fags!"
