Her eyes are big and soft and brown;
Her fingers white and slender;
Her brow is stranger TO a frown;
Upon her dimpled cheek the down
Is very short and tender
Her rosebud lips would tempt a priest
Or lure the gravest stole;
Her smile would charm the savage beast
Her cry for help would make the least
Courageous man heroic.
Her face is fairer than the dawn.
She's purer than the lily:
She Is as gentle as a fawn,
As graceful as the stately swan
And praise has made her silly.

or not he and The other commission

cost of holding a referendum cleo:
ton. 1t will be remembered that
they stated over their own signatures
a few days ago that the cost would
be $500. when in fact 1t would be
about $500 or. less.

mistake in an estimate that is In
correct to the extent of $500 in an
estimate of 5000 how far off do you
suppose they could be on the estimate
OF the water question involving ap-
proximatcly $4,000 per year?

rhE PRICE or VICTORY.

Southey's "The Battle Of Blenheim"
rings In our ears as the press teens
with the news Of victories and de-
feats. What better picture, Of the fu-
tility Of war than this:
with IRE and sword the country
round
Was wasted far and wide;
And many a childing mother there,
And newborn baby died; :
But things like that. you know, must
DO
Al every famous victory.
