Don't jump up the first thing your

The vitality is lowered and the circu-

the heart, as it starts pumping the

Y WALK beneath mysterious autumn

An autumn twilight hour,
II But when l walked in summer field

These too, were mysteries
Always there Is a spirit and a breath
Beyond my spirits call.
Almost the living trees confess the faith,
And yet know not what creation saith.
But he who walks here with me knows 1t
all.

And yet know not what my hands en-

man, sew, hautboy, beau" He urges
colleges and universities to unite in re-
forming our spelling. But any change
must be popularized. and to this end
this suggestion has been made: Get
the newspapers and magazines to agree
to adopt a simpler spelling of. say,
twenty-five words on Jan. 1, 1913;
twenty five more on Jan. l, 1914, and
20 on. the pledge not to be binding
