Visions
BY WILLIAM F. KIRK.

I L is always so. In the long ago
When Adam was roaming free
In the thick of wonderful garden
He laughed in immoderate glee
And then he dreamed when the sunset CLEANED
OF what he was going to be.
You are going to be a painter
am going to be a bard
You are going to paint beautiful saint,
BY never false stroke marred.
l was going to be a Byron,
But | found the task too hard
Going to be-ever dreamily
You plan, and your Hope Star shines,
You are dreaming what Rembrandt painted,
But finishing no designs.
Last night | dreamed fifty poems
Then | wrote these hating lines.

And when she did go, she was
restless to be back with the baby
After the second child came. it was
still more a decided fact that the
husband was eliminated for the
children in the thoughts of the wife.
Besides forgetting his needs of
her companionship, the wife forgot
to make herself attractive. All her
pretty womans vanity was put
aside.
She coiled her lovely hair in a
tight, unbecoming knot She wore
plain garments. with no little
touches of grace and beauty which
man loves to see about a woman.
she said she had no time for sucn
vanities; she was absorbed in ma

She urged her husband to be SEN

and not expect too much of her
He ceased to expect anything of
her save her duties as a mother
after time. SO he sought his COM

parties; and then, after a time, he

stupendous sight quiet the spirit

nothing else can do? 1t is because
there is in us something infinitely
superior to the mere material life

us from the armament, and, look

with the life that swarms in their

consciousness of His power and
the surer our faith in it's benefi-

The Great Milky Way.

Look out upon the heavens on
one of these fair autumn nights
and study their marvellous inlu-
ence upon you. Look upon the
Milky Way rising from the horizon
in the northeast, sweeping over
head, north of the zenith, and sink
ing, in great flakes of celestial light
in the west, and consider that it is
vast street of suns, THE BROAD
WAY OF THE HEAVENS. Pho
tographs show so many of them
that they can not be counted! The
length of that tremendous street of
suns can not be less than fifty
thousand millions of millions of
miles, and may be much more! If
you should undertake to traverse it

about sixty thousand millions of
years to complete the journey!
Over in the northwest you will
see bright star near the edge of
the Milky Way. 1t is the star Vega.
1t is a sun at least a hundred times
and perhaps a thousand times
greater than ours. Can you be-
lieve that there are no worlds re-
volving around IL, and blooming
with life at the touch of its rays?
Is there no community of interest
between us, inhabitants of one of
the minor solar systems of which
the universe IS made up, jewellers
in a mere village, and those who
live in that brighter system, that
great and splendid city of brilliant
worlds, that shines in the light of
Vega? If astronomy teaches US
anything it teaches that such COM
munity MUST exist. The spectre
scope shows that Vega consists Of
similar chemical substances to
those which constitute our less
luminous sun.
Other observations prove that it
is subject to similar physical laws.
The conclusion is Inevitable, then,
that it's worlds must resemble ours.
though they are probably greater,
and that their inhabitants may not
be unlike us in essential features.
Intelligence Not Limited.
If we speculate about the inhabi-
tants of other worlds, they, in turn,
speculate about US. We can not
touch hands with one another we
can not traverse, in our physical
bodies, the vast spaces that sepa-
rate us, but INTELLIGENCE is
confined by no obstacles and limit
ed by no distances. Through the
whole mighty universe thrills the
principle of LIFE, and wherever
life is WE ARE. at least in spirit.

THE devoted mother, absorbed
in her children, is an admir-
able being ofttimes. But 1t
depends upon the extent of her alb
sorption, whether she is really ad-
mirable or not
She has been known to drive
Cupid from her side; to destroy the
happiness of her home, and to OBJ
iterate beauty and charm from her
personality.
A pretty girl married a young
man of her own age.
He was proud of her attractive
appearance, and he loved to see her
attired in dainty garments, and to
take her forth peasuring. They
were great comrades, and friends,
and his pet name for her was Lit
tie Pal"
BY and by the baby came: and it
was new delight in both lives. 1t
seemed for time to add much and
to take away nothing.
But as the newness of fatherhood
passed, the husband was conscious
that he received little attention
from his wife. She was rarely able
to go out with him. There was al
ways something which required her
presence at home even when pro-
vided with nurse, or the assis-
lance of competent relatives to look
after the baby.

He is not candidate for Governor
of his own seeking, but yielded to
the demands of over a thousand OF
representative OF all classes of the
people who met in New Orleans in
conference from which was evolved
the Good Government League of
Louisiana.
In his magnificent address Judge
Hall reviewed the political condition
of the State, and especially the
school system, which under the ad-
ministration of Gov. n. C.. Blanchard
had reached an idealism promising
the greatest of beneficial results to
all the people Of the State. but the
school system has been dragged into
the mire of politics. Under, the pres
ent system the superintendent OF
Public Education was the power
through which the authority of the
school boards was clrCumScrlbed.
Under the present system the su-
perintendent was possessed OF the
authority to name all the teachers
and to fix their salaries and to de-
signate when school houses should
be erected regardless Of the pro
tests Of the members Of the school
board elected by the people. His re-
marks were applied to the system
and not to any individual.
He demonstrated the extravaganza
and the waste of money in the un-
necessary boards such as the Game
Commission and other schemes
from which the favored few re
ceived in salaries and emolumentS
to teh detriment of the masses who
must carry the burdens of taxation.
In closing his speech, which dld
not exceed three-quartcrs Of ar

pealed to The patriotism OF his au
ditros. If the people want a change
in the system Of Bosslsm: if they
stand fro and favor good govern
ment for the good OF all the people.
they must rally TO the defeat Of the
machine and its candidate.
At the close of The meeting Judge
Hall received an ovation. There
were very few in the audience who
did not shake his hand and pledge
him their unqualified support.
The meeting was in every sense o
magnificent success.

nick that Kendall had skipped. This

was or the information obtained

skip, and is now in Shreveport.
