A CHANGE OF HEART.

Sometimes when am bored | wish
The Lord had made mc just FISH
To swim around the deep blue seas,
And do whatever Glanced to please;
And then the thought comes over me
How dark and lonesome is the sea;
How wet and cold il is below;
How aimlcss swimming to and fro
With no one nigh to crack joke,
With life one everlasting soak;
No love or laughter, dance or song;
No sense OF right, no sense OF wrong;
Compelled whate'er We cat to look
Within for some unwelcome hook
Lest VIC be yanked from home and friends
For mortal's gastronomic ends.
IT'S then my boredom flies away
Like SHOWS upon >pringy day,
And thanks rise to the Lord that He
Has mercifully made me Me!

NOTE IN FRIENDLY WAY

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Germany
has received the presidents note in
the most friendly manner. Foreign
Minister Won Jagow received Ambas-
sador Gerard with the utmost court
esy. He promised the note would be
given the most careful attention and
that a reply would be made without
delay. Bryan was so informed today
by Ambassador Gerard. The ambas-
sador emphasized the friendliness Of
the reception accorded him, but
whether he intimated what Ger
many's answer would be- Bryan re-
fused to say. The secretary declined
to discuss the report Of Gerard.
Although refusing to discuss the
ambassadors report, Bryan appeared
to be far more hopeful than at any
time since the Lusitania was sunk.
With the announcement Of the re-
ceipt Of Gerard's report, the secretary
also announced the signing of arbi-
tration treaties with Great Britain,
Peru and Norway.
A copy Of Gerard's report was for
warded to the president in New
York It was not intended 1t should
be made public as It's conclusions are
not definite.

Miss Jolivet, who was among the

as the big steamer healed over. Mr..
Vanderbilt took off his own llfe-belt
and insisted on putting It on Miss
