examples of mental power and of domin-
ance over fate of which history gives us any
example. 1t is interesting to note that
Fawcett was first attracted to Miss Milli-
cent Garrett, whom he afterwards married,
by overhearing her say after the assassina-
tion of Abraham Lincoln that sit would
have been better if every crowned head in
Europe had been shot than Lincoln.'' The
indication was reliable one, for no one
ever found in a wife a more perfect COM
plement than Fawcett. .Fawcett's political
life was career of undertaking support OF
every cause that made for human liberty
and for the advancement of justice, while
his physical disability won for him a SYM
pathy that he was quick to turn to the ad-
vantage of others. Probably no other man
Of his day left so deep an impression on the
minds of his countrymen, or gave so high
an example of courage that regards calam-
ity as no more than challenge.-&l.

Man Who Defed Blindness

The late Henry Fawcett furnishes won
derful example of a man who, although
blind, became Postmaster General of Eng
land. His story causes US almost to won
der if blindness may not be a gain rather
than loss. Fawcett lost his sight through
hunting accident when he was twenty-five:
He determined at once that the calamity
should "make no difference, and this al
most incredible story shows how little diff
ference it did actually make. That he con-
t;nued to 60 on fishing excursions and to
be skilled angler, that he went fox-hunt-
ing trusting only to his horse, that he per-
sisted in every one Of his ordinary avoca-
tions except those actually prohibited by
his loss, such as reading, and that he event.

With a touch of infinite calm.

Memory

There is hill called Memory, and stretch
ing far below,
Wrapped in a golden mist, there lies the
Land of Long Ago.
And there are shining rivers there, that
ripple all day long,
And birds that fill the morning air with
ecstacies of song.
The sunshine falls in silver fakes across the
forest floor,
But sunlight, birds and streams are ours to
dream of, and no more.
And you-you lived among them once
you heard the robin sing,
Upon the bough that still was bare, and
knew that it was Spring
And when the frosty twilight fell beyond
the rivers rim
You watched for him to come again to
chant his evening hymn.
But then when Times Implying hand had
barely touched your brow,
You could not know how sweet it was
but, ah! you know it nowi
Nor could you. know how wonderful were
all the radiant flowers
Whose gentle faces smiled at you through
all the careless hours;
Nor what a miracle the stream, that crept
so softly by
And carried. mirrored in its depths, the
trees and clouds and sky.
You never even sought to hold this glow
ing beauty fast,
Till now-too late-you see it, in the VAL
ley of the Past!

Tell Her So

There was time you thot it bliss,
To get the favor of one kiss,
A dozen now won't come amiss.
Tell her so.
Your love for her is no mistake,
You feel it, dreaming or awake,
Don't conceal it! For her sake,
Tell her so!
Don't act as if she has passed her prime
As tho to please her was crime;
If ere you loved her now's the time.
Tell her so.

Oh, why am sad and weary,
Mid scenes so passing fairt

Of earth's low sordid care.

Of freedom, rest and ease,
While the temPter whispers, saying,
you've only yourself to please
Then joy seek for each morrow,
And l strike my harp anew,
But find to my utter sorrow,
A discord through and through.
Self-love each chord has loosened,
So tune with all my might.
Till self dies away with the discord,
And trembles out of sight.
Now / strive to help the weary,
To cheer the lone and sad,
And my harp yields sweeter music
With strains divinely glad.
And l almost hear the echo
Far o'er the crystal sea,
Of the Master sweetly saying,
eye did it unto Me-"
Now l seek, nor seek it vainly,
That one ''lost Chord Divine;
From the heart of the great Jehovah,
1t vibrates into mine.
The angels are whispering ever
The keynote of their psalm;
Each day am learning better
Its rapture and its calm.

Getting Out IN the
Country

OOuntIy
1t seems to me I'd like to 60
Where bells don't ring nor whistles blow,
Nor clocks don't strike, nor gongs don't
sound;
And I'll have stiffness all around.
Not real stiffness, but just the trees
Low whispering or the hum of bees;
Or brooks faint babbling over stones.
In strangely, softly tangled tones.
Or maybe cricket or katydid,
Or song of bird in the hedges hid,
Or just some sweet sounds as these
To fill tired heart with ease.
If it weren't for sight and sound and smell
I'D like the city pretty we'll
But when it comes to getting rest
like the country lots the best.
Sometimes it seems to me l must
Just quit the city's din and dust,
And get out where the sky is blue;
And say, how does it seem to your

Dreamer and Doer

Dreamer and Doer
A dreamer and a doer
Were born the selfsame day,
Grew up and dwelt together
In comrade work and play.
The dreamer sent his fancy
On classic fields to roam,
The doer fashioned temples
From common clay. at home.
The dreamer saw kingdom
Where right ruled everything,
Where justice dwelt with liberty
And every man was king.
The doer fought, triumphant
Through hatred, pain and dearth,
To bring the kingdom nearer
OF peace, good will on earth.
The dreamer saw his Master,
Compassionate and mild.
The doer toiled and suffered
Lifted the crippled child.
Led forth the blind and erring,
Till in his face men saw
The Masters spirit shining
And touched his robe in awe.
How could that mystic dreamer
Such wondrous visions see?
How could the toll worn doer
Rise to such mastery?
How could the dreamer triumph
How could the doer planl
All! You have read the answer!
They are the self-same man!
Fare forth, my valiant doer,
Where storm-tossed pennons gleam,
But lose not in thy striving,
The vision and the dream!
