There are several points in Mr..

Mr.. Mcguire infers in his article that
because a man wears a pair of white
shoes around the streets Of dirty,
sOoty cities, there is something the
matter with his upper story, or, be-

noticed your verses lately,
Simply pining for change.
Vacation seems tO--troUble one
If viewed from a wide range.
Since then you seem recOncied,
Too late, 1 fear this time.
The weather man, awake at last,
Has read your pleading rhyme.
Why don't you take an ocean trip?
Excitement all the way
When the submarine had passed,
It might be judgment day.
Now if you wish suggestions,
III offer you this one.
It certainly would be a change
From anything you've done.
But if it don't appeal to you
III not feel very bad,
If the submarine did hit you
I'd really feel quite sad.
For you probably would blame me
If you commenced a song,
And found your crown was much too
small,
Your harp was tuned all wrong.

ELLA HARRIET ARNOLD

oh, our lonely home with Its vacant chair;
And the little footstep that's lacking

And the face that was bright as the morn
ings glow
For we laid our Ella meath the daisies,
one month ago.
She Is not out with the birds and the
flowers.
Oh, we miss her bright face where the sweet
sunbeams play.
Why are you sleeping thus late In the
day?
Are you weary of dollies, weary of toys,
Weary Of all Of your innocent Ioys7
Why are those two little hands crossed, SO
still on her breast7
Gentle be your footfaIls-tiisturb not her

Some one has told us her sufYerings are DER,
That angels are calling her from that
Golden Shore;
That they were ever near her close vigiIs to
keep.
Oh, soft be your whispers, disturb not her
sleep.
Just look on that pure face all sinless and
white,
Fondly caress those curls tinged with
sunsets last light,
Kiss those rose-bud lips, tinted with
Heavens sweet breath;
Hold her So closely, oh this is not death.
Papa, mama, brothers: why mourn so to-
day?
It's only the casket that you've laid
away.
Elias beautiful spirit remains Heaven-like,
here, below.
Oh, cease those sad tears that so fountain
like flow.
For your little Ella is not dead. I say.
The Master In Heaven Just called her
away.
He sent His angels to take her from this
world Of sin,
The gates Of pearl opened and she has
