LIGHTS.

Lights are far on the ocean deep,
Stars awake from their sunlkissed sieer
sentinel shines the moon on high.
Shepherd Of shades in the changing sky.
Out near the blue horizon line
Shell OF the opal seas confine
Grey ships fit Der the waters free, ,..-,
but the lights are far at sea
The beauteous day has passed away,
Only the rsdgold clouds that stay
Where the western gates unclose
Family show with fading glow
Like petals dropped from a rose.
They pass in the night, those ships afar,
Each light they carry a beacon star
But far, far out at sea.
o ships! sail home TO the harbor bar,
Our empty hands are reaching afar
To grasp the treasures you withhold.
Waiting has made the meek lips bold.
Alloy! Alloy! our hearts are true.
Watch while the long night drags away
And lost again in the brilliant day.
The lights we love at sea.

LADY, Astor's Election.

It is Just little BIT ironc that the first
woman to sit In the English House of Com
mons should be representative Of the arstoc-
racy. Not that the suffrage movement has
lacked titled names in connection with its &C
Invites, but for the reason that the great con-
servative group Of the nation has .not yet en-
tirely overcome its aversion to woman's active
direct participation in government, and its
strength lies almost wholly within the landed
gentry, among whom the Astors are num-
beted. That she should so decisvely defeat
both 4 liberal and laborate candidate makes
her victory the more remarkable. 1t is quite
within reason to look upon her success as per-
sonal rather than political, although the seat
for which she contested has been looked upon
as safe for her party. Whether she will go
farther than Miss Rankin did in the American
congress is yet to be told. She has most at
tractive declaration of principles, but the power
of single person to overcome age-old customs
and rooted prejudices is slight That she has
made long start with the electorate is adj
mitted, but that Parliament is different matter
is also quite clear. Lady Nancy's career will
be closely watched on. both sides of the Atlantic

An intermission followed until 1904, when
an attempt was made to change the method
Of changing the constitution and get away
from the necessity of majority of the total
vote, but this, too, failed, and the next move
was the introduction of the party-circle device
which !! have already explained and by which
the ratification sof all subsequently-adopte
amendments was secured. Thus III 1906 the
railway commission was at last constitution
ally established. In 1908 the supreme court
was enlarged, the judicial terms extended, the
judicial salaries raised and the school fund in
vestrnent safeguarded In 1910 full Amer
lean citizenship amendment was beaten, not
withstanding its endorsement by both political
parties. In 1912 the party-crcle vote carried
FIVE amendments, Q) the initiative aud refer
endum; (2) a legislative salary increase to 5000
year; l3) a state board of control; az BIZ
shnial elections; (sl permissive municipal
home rule. In, 1914 the pendulum swung
again for the defeat Of these three amend.
naents, az progressive taxation and selection
Of taxable subjects; (2) fve-six jury verdicts;
90 salary increases for executive state officers.
An initiated equal suffrage amendment was
Also unsuccessful in 1914. In 1916 the initiated
prohibition amendment carried, and finally, in
1918, under pressure of war conditions, the
requirement of full American citizenship for
suffrage privileges carried, along with the call
for the constitutional convention, that is now
to meet.

lung had inflated much of the upper
part Of his body and tissues of his
face, attending physicians said, much
as a rubber tire is inflated with an

To relieve the severe pressure thus
produced on vital organs, an operation
was conducted and the air pumped out
through an opening between his ribs
by the use Of a vacuum pump.
