DEATH AS ENTRY INTO Joy

Importance of Incident of Earthly
Dissolution.

Apart from the mystery of lives cut
of In their early prime, and this is
the horrld catastrophe Of war, IT Is
certain that in our natural clinglng
to life we exaggerate the Importance
Of the incident Of death. "Will YOU
never find an abiding .peace?' sold a
friend to restless poet He replied
All life Is wandering to find
home"
Michael Fairless writes in the Road
Member: ITO the large majority
death is Pluto king Of the dark I'M
known whence no traveller returns,
rather than Azrael, brother and friend,
lord Of the mansion of life. Strange
how men shun him as he waits in the
shadow, watching our straining after
immortality, sending his comrade sleep
10 prepare us for himself. When the
hour strikes he comes--very gently
very tenderly. If we will have it So
folds the tired hands together, takes
the way-worn feet in his broad, strong
palm; and lifting us in his wonderful
arms he bears us swiftly down the val
ley and across the water of Remen
brance. Very pleasant art thou {
Brother Death, thy love Is wonderful

NOW FISH IN INLAND WATERS
German Submarines Have Driven
hardy Dutch Sailors From Their
Occupation In the North Sea.

I'm this day of the lurking submarine
the waters OF the North sea are a
marked danger zone for the fisherman
of the Netherlands. and consequently
the rivers and inner seas of Holland
are thronged with brown-sailed fishing
smaeks, all eagerly pursuing the elu-
sive herring salmon, pike and carp.
Until the boats tanks or barrels are
filled the determined fisherman sticks
at his job. If good haul Is soon
made he may steer the craft up some
canal TO an inland town TO market
his catch. He gets out the sign,
Fish for Sale" and fastens IL to the
mast. draws the boat up 10 the canal $
edge, and Is soon besieged by house
wives anxious 10 inspect his wares.
The fish, as If conscious Of their pend
ing fate, swim uneasily about in the
tank, while thrifty Dutch matrons
follow certain ones excitedly with
forefinger. and the seller endeavors TO
locate the desired fish IN the swarm
ing tub.
On summer evening when fleet
of the good ships has made port after
a hard days work. fishing village IS
one Of the most picturesque sights in
Holland. Sails patched or torn and

brawny Dutch fisherman, revived by
supper and the evening pipe, Is curing
fish and exchanging stories with neigh
bors on the dock, while his wife sits
before her cottage mending nets, or
perhaps adjoining torn sail with a
vivid red patch.
There is little rest for these hard
working seamen and their wives. Fish
have long been TO Holland what rice
is TO China or the potato to America.

ever to her fisher folk to feed the
