OLD BILL JONES.

Old Bill Jones was home-spun chap,
Not given to pomp or style,
But he wore the smile that won't
come off
And his heart was free from guile.
A genuine Odd Fellow was he,
The kind all lodges need;
DO yer bit in a friendly wayi'
Was Old Bill Jones' creed.
If he CHANGED to meet a felIowman.
Who was up against it hard,
He'd go to him with an outstretched
hand,
And say to him, "old Pard,
Is there anything that / can do
To make your burdens less?
For to help each other here on earth
Is what we're for, | guess."
And if a brother CHANGED to stray
From virtues path, twas then
BilPs sturdy arm was reaching out
To guide him back again.
If sickness lad a brother Iowi,
And his family was in need,
Bill didn't kneel and pray for them,
But lived up to his creed.
He'd interview the groceryman,
And to the goldman say:
See that their wants are all supplied,
And come to me fof pay"
Thus as he journeyedson through life,
He practiced what he preached,
And scattered blessings by the way,
Until the end was reached,
And when at last the summons came,
Which comes to one and all,
Bill laid his earthly cares aside "
And answered to the call. i.
And as he climbed that narrow path
Which leads to heavenly rest,
Bill wondered if his earthly life
Would meet the final test,
Saint Peter saw him just outside,
And cried, in ringing tones:
open the gates Of heaven wide,
For here comes Old Bill Jones'"
The heavenly choir sang anthems,
sweet,
And angels shouted, when
They welcomed to their midst the
man
Who'd loved his fellow men.
Punched, in Iowa Odd Fellow.

her husbands affection longest?
And while the question is enough
to make Balzac or Havelock Ellis

In the first place, there are no cut

there are in regard to arithmetic and
speiling--and even those, il you re-

tions.
1t will depend largely on the type
of man you are marrying, and II he
fell in love with you because your
tastes are similar, or because they are
different. Though from the tone oi
your letter, ] imagine you and youi
fance share many excellent tastes in
common. books and music you have
mentioned. p, !.
Some men want a companion with
whom they can share convictions
interests and hobbies. Others are i'm
mensely attracted by their "oppo
sites" As witness the dry-as-dust pro
fessor in the woman's college is FIRE
quently a victim of the chief butter

And there is, of course, the erudit,
type of man who fees from bril-

silly one. Such man does not wan

A man who enjoys home and

Granting that people have domestic
