PHILOSOPHY IN VERSE.

Temporal.
Laughter must be ended.
Banquet halls grow dim,
Where gay singing blended
Chants the low toned hymn.
Battles fought and over.
Swords shrink into rust;
Rest find every rover;
Cities blow in dust.
What Is there eternal
Can the ages manner
Might Is ~hodiernal;
Swift as dreams is fame.
Stars burn out; forever
Round them great winds moan
OF all what fadeth ever-
What save love alone?

bors to give her tLeir flowers and their
time, TO lend her their servants, the
contents of their refrigerators and any
other thing that they might have which
could be utilized for a wedding.
The call was met gladly. 1t was not
only that the colony had many things
in common, but the merry little eastern
girl had won all hearts. 1t would be
delightful to have her safely married
to one of their number.

The arrangements were completed.
Just as the clock in the hall struck 9
some me struck up a wedding march,
and the bridal couple descended the
stairs. The front parlor was a bower
of white, golden conferred Cherokee
roses. Long sprays of them made an
arch on that side of the room where
the clergyman stood waiting, and the
carpet was strewn with snowy petals
for Carols white satin slippers to
tread upon.
The bride was arrayed in a dainty
white frock that had come home from
the dressmaker only the day before.
She wore her mothers pearls or her
neck and arms, orange blossoms in her
belt and Mrs. Lankard's wedding veil.
The girls face was pale, but her eyes
were clear and steady. The young
couple had no attendants. Harry gave
the bride away. and Joyce lowered

AS soon as congratulations were
over the wedding dinner was served.

tional lines of wedding dinners, but its
excellence was surprising to the mas

The dinner was hurried a little, as

to take a boat the next morning for

honeymoon was to be spent. While

GOWNS ADAPTED TO
THE WOMAN WHO HAS
REACHED MIDDLE AGE

The middle aged woman should
avoid dresses OF crude, hard shades.
She will find laces of the cream and
old ivory tints more becoming than
white. Silver gray is popular with
many aging matrons whose hair also
is silvery.
Soft tones of mauve and amethyst
are attractive %colors, suitable for the
dressy gowns. Old rose also may be
worn.

The Fuuitive Ideal,

As some most pure and noble face
Seen i'm the thronged and hurrytng street
Sheds DER the world a sudden grace.
A flying odor sweet,
Then, passing, leaves the cheated sense
Baked with a phantom excellence.
So on our soul the visions rise
OF that fair life we never led.
They fash a splendor past our eyes:
We start. and they are fled.
They pass and leave us with blank gaze.
Resigned to our ignoble days.

How fond the dream at evenings close,
When twilight shadows creep.
As il to drown the drowsy day
In balm of sweetest sleepi
This is the hint of life we hold,
From other realm han earth,
And maybe this the Eden dream
That ushered in our birth.

FEWER DEATHS THIS YEAR
Only One Heat Victim Reported
Last Week.

There were 547 fewer deaths last wech
than for the corresponding weeH in 49,,
according TO a statement issued yesterday
by the Department Of Health. The strik-
ing reduction last week was in part due
TO the falling off in the number of deaths
Of infants and tho almost total absence Of
fatalities from sunstroke. In the same
week in 1911 there Were 200 deaths from
sunstrok1, while the death rate Of infants
was 60 per cent greater than 1t was last
week There was only one sunstroke last
week
There were 87 deaths under one year
last week as against 81 deaths for tho
corresponding week in ISL There were
426 deaths under five years, as against SO
in the same week in 1911. The report Is
sued by the Department OF Health said
The difference illustrates in a striking
manner the effect OF the we'll remembered
heat in the first week IN July, lJIl. Dur
ing that hot period OF seven days there
were 200 deaths from sunstroke, as against
only one for the week ended last SatuT-
day. The mortality from diaTh9al dis
eases was 60 per cent higher last year than
in the corresponding week this year
For the first tWenty-Sevcn weeks Of 1912
the death rate is I498 against 1928 for the
same length Of time last year
