A LITTLE LANE.

Ill k LAME
TT isn't long since barefoot days-a
dancing down the lane
That threads it's beaten way among the
rows Of swishing grain
I'll hurry, hurry, hurry, to the great,
wide, stretching road,
For father will be coming with heaping
two horse load
TODAY I'm playing make believe-a,
- climbing UP the wheel
Till fathers hand can reach me. and
give little sQueal
Because he swings me high upon the big.
fat, lumpy sacks.
I'm up above the horses; l can see their
shining backs
lust thinking of it brings a smile
abouncing on the seat,
While father chuckles low. and then to
make my joy complete
He slips the long, brown, thrilling lines
into my coaxing hands,
Just as I'm wishing he would do-he al
ways understands.
oh, let me be a child again, awaiting in
~ the road
To hear the jolly music of that creaking
two horse load.
A child again; again for just a wee half
hour or so;
Just time to ride with father through
little lane I know.

Sam Y. Gordon of Browns Valley announces that
he has leased the Browns Valley brother
on account of having been appointed having
cepted the position state printer another good
country editor has lost from the ranks in order
that public position may be filled enough
for the newspaper boys to be rewarded with

of making surveys in connection Herewith. action
the part of Senator Nelson very important
to be commended Authority from congress is absolute
y before anything in the way improvement
on Traverse and Big Stone lakes could done. Of
blunder made in the passed by last Min
nesOta legislature which does permit connecting
of the lakes by canal will have before
substantial improvement for reservoir system and

for flood control in this section making of Traverse

amount of the spring flood waters be stored and
gradually let out during the months through

THE SWORD.

ONE Of the seventy had sword
- The day that Christ was crucifed;
He followed where they led his Lord,
The man that would not stand aside.
WHEN that first hammer stroke rang
w loud,
And left and right the rabble swayed,
He flashed from out the staring crowd.
He died upon the Roman blade.
IT'S fruitless deed, his noteless name,
49, By careless Rome were never told,
Now shall we give him praise or blame?
Account him base, acclaim him bold?
WAS he the traitor to his Lord,
w Deeper than Peter that denied,
The loving soul that took the sword,
The man that would not stand aside?
OR did the glorious company
~ OF Michaers sworded seraphim
With chivalrous high courtesy
Rise up to make a place for him?
Helen Gray Cone,
GEMS FROM THE MASTER.
There's small choice in rotten apples.
And do as adversaries do in law,
Strive nightly, but eat and drink as
friends.
Nothing comes amiss, so money comes
withal.
The hind that would be mated to the lion
Must die for love.
He needs must go that the devil drives,
Oft expectation fails and most Oft there
Where most 1t promises.
A young man married is a man that's
marred.
