INTERMEDIARY.

(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox
When from the prison of its body
free,
My soul shall soar, before it goes to
Thee,
Thou great Creator, give it power to
know
The language of all sad, dumb things
below.
And let me dwell season still on
earth
Before / rise to some diviner birth
Invisible to men, yet seen and heard
And understood by sorrowing beast
and bird
Invisible to men, yet always near,
To whisper counsel to the human ear
And with a spell to stay the hunters
hand
And stir his heart to know and un-
derstand;
To plant within the dull or thought
less mind
The great religious impulse to be
kind.
Before prune my spirit wings and
rise
To seek my loved ones in their para
disc,
Yea! even before l hasten on to see
That lost child's face, so like a
dream to me,
i would be given this intermediate
role,
And carry comfort to each poor
dumb soul;
And bridge mans gulf of cruelty and
sin
BY understanding of his lower kin,
'Twixt weary driver and the strain
ing steed
On wings of mercy would my spirit
speed.
And each should know, before his
journeys end,
That in the other dwelt a loving
friend.
From zoo and jungle and from cage
and stall,
/ would translate each inarticulate
Each pleading look, each frenzied act
and cry.
And tell the story to each passerby;
And of spirits privilege possessed,
Pursue Indifference to it's couch OF
rest,
And whisper in it's ear until in awe
1t woke and knew Gods all-embrac-
ing law
Of Universal Life-the One in ALL
Lord, let this mission to my lot be-
fall.

during the winter and spring, and
state the needs of the movement He
stated that in spite of the very unde-
sirable condition of the building forty
TO fifty boys were regular atten-
dants, and they had unanimously
voted their desire to continue. The
building can now be purchased for
$1,000 and about $500 is needed
to remodel it and give it full modern
gymnasium equipment, including
shower baths, etc. A committee was
appointed consisting of DR.. F. w.
Conover, w. F. Baker, S. Larsen and
n. A. Warner to arrange for the f.
nancing of the proposition, so that
the Boy Scout and Gymnasium move
ment may proceed without embar-
rassment or interruption.

Booze Shipments Prohibited.

Last week announcement was
made that the express companies
had received orders from headquart-
ser to receive no more liquors for
transportation, which spread con-
sternation generally over the state,
but when it was followed with the
announcement that the railroads as
well had issued orders to their
agents not to accept liquor for ship
ment into Iowa it raised almost a
furore. The Burlington started by
ordering its agents not to deliver beer
or intoxicants to a customer unless
they filed with the agent a certificate
from the clerk of the district court
showing that he is legally authoriz-
ed to receive it. The Rock Island
went one further, sending out orders
to deliver liquor to no one, and the
result is that poor old Iowa is getting
dryer every day.
These orders are the outcome OF
the discovery of an old Iowa statute
requiring a certificate from the clerk
of the district court that the person
ordering the shipment is proper
one to receive it, and in connection
with the national Kenyon-Webb law
prohibiting shipments from one state
to another for illegal purposes,
clamps the lid down pretty strong.
