Come, little comrade, let US fare across
the hills, beyond the city,
And wander in the open, where no voice
shall call to US for pity;
Wen wade in brooks that bGbble by the
slanting fields and forest edges,
And listen 10 the winds that sigh and sing
through aromatic sedges.
Wen linger in the hawthorn's shade and
carve the letters of our names
On messy fences that were made by
hands that toll no longer claims;
I'll lead you where the valleys lie deep
in the mornings cleaning dew,
The wild crabs fragrant blossoms I will
pluck from thorny boughs for you.
The friendly colt shall come 10 lay its veil
vet muzzle in your hand,
And we will watch the lambs at play,
and hear no masters harsh COM
mand:
No changing gongs shall terrorize and
there will be no shrieks OF pain,
No manning wheels nor warning cries, no
angry pickering for gain.
Come, little comrade, let me guide you
out beyond the roar and rattle
And show you that the world is wide,
that life is not q ceaseless battle,
And through the Joy that you shall know
and by the glee of your expression
The boyhood had long ago shall come
again to my possession.

The Ashtons were of the newly rich.
Mr.. Ashton having made the bulk of

noted, however, that in many Of these

and the fire problem is not so serious.
1t is pointed out that the rapid
spread Of the school social cetenr

use Of the school buildings by the gen

makes it more important than ever to

Miss Ashton could not long remain
in one place without attracting the at
tention of these cormorants. She was
simplicity itself. When visiting the
golden house of Nero-and the guide
showed her ruined apartment as the
emperor's smoking room-she did not
stop to consider that some fifteen cen
turtles had elapsed after Nero's time
before tobacco was introduced into
Europe. When inspecting tableware
exfNmed from Pompeii and the guide
showed her certain dishes from which
he told her the Pompeians drank their
coffee it did not occur TO her that a
similar period had elapsed before 'Eu-
rope had begun TO enjoy that bev-
erage. 1t is not strange that girl so
easily deceived in these matters should
put faith in any man who claimed that
he loved her.
Miss Ashton spent winter in Rome.
and when spring came she had receiv-
ed a number of propositions of mar
rage. There are many princes In Italy,
for every one descended from an an
cient ruler of one of the formerly in
dependent principalities of what is
| now United Italy bears the title of
prince or princess. Among Miss Ash

Washington, DC, May 21.-Plans
for active cooperation between the
democratic national committee and
the democratic congressional commit
tee in the campaigns of 1914 and
1916 continued to advance yesterday.
Leaders of both bodies prepared for
a conference they are to hold in the
near future, and President Wilson
told Chairman Lloyd and Secretary
Page of the congressional committee
that he heartily approved the new
program.
In the meantime, the senate dem
ocrats authorized Mr.. Kern, their
leader, TO appoint five of their num-
Der TO confer with the national and
congressional committees on the pro-
posed increase of the senate's repre-
sentation on the latter body. II is
expected that after the conference
Messrs. Lloyd and Page will recon-
mend that the membership be en-
larged to include 80 representatives
and 81 senators.
The committee membership now
comprises 80 representatives and nine
senators.
The congressional committee will
meet within a fortnight, when, in all
probability, the permanent organiEa.
