Let the New Year smile
When the Old Year dies;
In how short while
Shall the smile be sighs!
Yea! Stranger-year, thou hast many
a charm,
And thy face is fair and thy greeting
warm,
But dearer than thou-in his shroud

Is the furrowed face of the Year that
Yea! bright New Year,

With song and cheer,
They will hail thy birth;

Old has not,

The Old Year and the New.
By Rev. Abram J. Ryan.
How swift they go,
Life's many years,
With their winds of woe
And their storms of tears,
And their darkest nights whose shad-
owy slopes
Are lit with the flashes of starriest
hopes,
And their sunshiny days in whose
calm heavens loom
The clouds of the tempest-the shad-
ows of gloom
And ah! we pray
With grief so dear,
That the years may stay
When their graves are near;
Tho the brows Of Tomorrows be ra-
diant and bright.
With love and with beauty, with life
and with light,
The dead hearts of Yesterdays, cold
on Lne Dler,
To the hearts that survive them, are
evermore dear.
For the heart so true
To each Old Year cleaves;
Though the hand of the New
Flowery garlands weaves.
But the flowers of the future, tho
fragrant and fair,
With the past's withered leaflets may
never compare;
For dear is each dead leaf - and
dearer each thorn
In the wreaths which the brows of
our past years have worn.
Yea! men will cling
With love to the last,
And wildly fling
Their arms round the past!
AS the vine that clings to the oak
that falls;
AS the ivy twines round the crumbled
walls;
For the dust of the past some hearts
higher prize
Than the stars that flash out from
the futures bright skies.
And why not so?
The old, Old Years,
They knew and they know
All our hopes and our fears;
We walked by their side, and he told
them each grief,
And they kissed off our tears while
they whispered relief;
And the stories of hearts that may
not be revealed
In the hearts of the dead years are
buried and sealed
Let the New Year sing
At the Old Years grave:
Will the New Year bring
What the Old Year gave?
All! the Stranger-Year trips over the
SHOWS,
And his brow is wreathed with many
rose; .... .......
But how many thorns do the roses
conceal

.Lauds State Department.
81 want to speak good word for
our state banking department. The
state banking law was put u2on the
statute books Of the state after twelve
bankers of this state who believed
the interests of the banks ana TIE
public were Identical: and that tie
law as framed would benefit tao
banks and the public.
Our state banking department is
efficient. 1t is doing good work. 1t
is acting more on the line OF pEysl-
clan or a surgeon, rather than al I'M
dertaker. In many instances where
banks were not in good condition, |
have known of their cooperating
with the parties interested, III reor-
gazing or organizing new and strong
sound bank to take oyer the business
of the weak ones; and many banks
and depOsitOrs have been saved tnat
+, way. Where it was seen that the
banks were in such couditi2n that
nothing could. be done to save the
banks. the banks have been promptly
closed, their affairs economically and
promptly administered by Inc de-
partment, and substantial dividends
already paid to the creditors.
THE best guarantee that the peo-
pie can have in dealing with any bank
is the character and ability Of those
who manage the same; and. before
! placing your account in any instltu-
ton, you should carefully investigate
the men who manage it. Are they
men of ability, of high character ana
standing? OF a high sense OF hon
| or? Are they men of means? DO
they make their investments Outside
of the bank with their oW1 means, or
CO they want to borrow the banks

ers-men who are willing to loan to
themselves, Or to concerns H;at they
arc largely interested in, vast sums

Why Banks Fail.
more than 80 per cent of all banks
that fail, fail for one of two reasons
either the officers actually steal
the funds of the bank. or they loan
it to themselves, or to concerns they
