God's s C0untry

We met up with regular American the
other day on a railway train. He said he
was born in Sweden, but was brought up
here. A few years ago he went back to the
land of his forefathers for a pleasure trip
He enjoyed it much, but after three months
of that foreign country he sighed for home
To use his own language:
when l landed l thanked God for Gods
country and that was in it once again, in a
land where you can call the mayor Bill
and the mayor calls you John Over across
it amt that way"
When a westerner goes to New York
with a roll in his pocket and an inclination
to spend it, he has pretty good time, and
thinks Gotham pretty good little town. But
at that, he is mighty glad to get back to the
great outdoor west, where he is as good as
any other man-and darn sight better. Nor
for the life of him would be content to live
in New York upon the terms of life given to
SO per cent Of that populous burg-to com.
pete, to scrimp to see well-heeled westerners
coming to enjoy the Gotham entertainment
which the ordinary New Yorker cannot af.
ford
If that is so about New York, it is much
more so about Europe. To visit Europe is
one thing. To live in Europe is entirely an.
other. To the man or woman wonted to
American conditions only American condi.
tions are tolerable. To convert discon-
tented American into an enthusiastic Amer.
lean all that is required is to have him &c
live and compete in the country of his ideal,
ity for period. In less time than the period
he will be yearning for the good old United
States, and cursing himself for fool who
didn't know enough to know when and where
he was we'll off,
There is only one United States in this
world, and the ordinary man or woman who
is here ought to thank his stars for it.-Min,

IF THIS WERE FAITH.

Having felt Thy wind in my face
Spit sorrow and disgrace,
Having seen Thine evil doom
In Golgotha and Khartum,
And the brutes, the work OF Thine nahds'
Fill with injustice lands
And stain with blood the sea:
II still in my veins the glee
OF the black night and the sun
And the lost battle, run:
II, an adept,
The iniquitous lists ! still accept
With Joy, and JOY to endure and be with
stood,
And still to battle and perish for dream Of
good:
God, If that were enough?
II to feel in the Ink Of the slough,
And the sink Of the mire,
Veins Of glory and fire
Run through and transperce and transpire.
And a secret purpose Of glory in every part
And the answering glory OF battle I'LL my
heart:
To thrill with the Joy Of girded men
To go on forever and fail and go on again,
And be mauled to the earth and arise,
And contend for the shade Of q word and
thing not seen with the eyes:
With the half Of broken hope for = pill
low at night
That somehow the right Is right
And the smooth shall bloom from the rough:
Lord, II that were enough?
