What do you mean by this weeping
To break my very heart?
We both are In Christ's keeping
And therefore cannot part.
You there-I here-though severed
We still at heart are one;
only just in sunshine,
The shadows scarcely gone.
What IL the clouds surround you,
You can the brightness see;
IT'S only just little way
That leads from you to me.
was SO very weary;
Surely you could not mourn
That a little sooner
Should lay my burden down.
Then weep not. weep not darling,
God wipes away all tears;
'Tis only Yet little while
Though you may call it-years."
The above was sent by lady to a
friend bereaved. 1t is offered for
publication that others may find a
sweetly solemn thought. We do not
know the author bu. feel that while
such inspirations are granted human
friendships surely the veil between this
and a better existence must be thin,
as the psalmist has written.

When a woman can trim all the

are apt to be such that they are well
worth Dragging about. Mrs. Jacob

Mr.. Wilson promised to knock
Bryan into a cooked hat; then he
made Bryan his chief official adviser;
then he performed the cooked hat
stunt.
Mr.. Wilson placed himself offensive
ly against labor unions, then he as
siduously courted them.
Mr.. Wilson stood against the
initiative and referendum, then he

Mr.. Wilson STOOD" out and out,
for free trade and drove the free
sugar clause through Congress. in
spite Of the indignation Of his Demo-
cratic brethren in the South, and then
he drove it back again to repeal.
Mr.. Wilson, as a candidate, stood
for woman suffrage in New Jersey;
then he could not talk Of it as Presi-

pledges did not include it; then he
announced himself for it and then
against it-now where does he

"Our platform is one Of prinei.

Our pledges are made to be kept
when in office, as we'll as relied
on during the campaign"
Then to the platform declaration:
I'VE favor a single Presidential
term, and to that end urge the
adoption Of an amendment to the
Constitution making the President
Of the United States ineligible for
reelection, and we pledge the
candidate of this convention to
this principle"
And then to the :3:t that the above
recommended amendment would have
been made had not Woodrow Wilson

And that from a man who said.

miscuously and the man who has, the
man who has not stood" upon the

Maine Gossip
The Dog.

I've never known a dog to wag
His tail in glee he didn't feel,
Nor quit his old-time friend to tag
At some more influential heel.
The yellOWest cur | ever knew
Was, to the boy, who loved him, true.
I've never known a dog to show
!, Hallway devotion to his friend,
To seek a kinder man to know
Or richer, but unto the end
The humblest dog l ever knew
I've never known a dog to fake
Affection for a present gain.
A false display of love to make,
Some little favor to attain.
I've never known a Prince or Spot
That seemed to be what he was not.
But have known a dog to fight
With all his strength to shield a friend
And whether wrong or whether right,
To stick with him until the end.
And l have known a dog to lick
The hand of him that men would kick.
And l have known a dog to bear
Starvation pangs from day to day
With him who had been glad to share
His bread and meat along the way.
No dog, however mean or rude,
Is guilty of ingratitude.
The dog t.; listed with the dumb.
No voice has he to speak his creed,
His messages to humans come
BY faithful conduct and by deed.
He shows, as seldom n1ortals do,
A high ideal of being true.
