The Circuit.

Soon the statesmen presiden-
tial, candidate for White House
fame, in a heat that's pestilen-
tial, will pursue the modern
game; DER the country they'll
be chasing, making speeches
here and there, with the per-
spiration racing down their
noses and their hair. And their
|neckties will be tilted, and their
shirtfronts will be wet, and their
neckties will be wilted, and their
whiskers dripping sweat. Oh,
'twere better if we knew them
at distance. | maintain. tor
we're thinking, when we view
them, they look neither safe nor
sane. Who can hold his admlra-
ton for man whose neck is
red, who has dampened down
the nation with the lakes of
sweat he's shed? In the days
when | was younger men of
presidential size had no fierce or
frenzied hunger for the mob's
approving cries. In the distance,
calm and stately, they remained
through all the fuss, doing moth
ing, nobly, greatly, and they
made a hit with us. OF the can
didate collection who would
tread the White House way, few
will stand close inspection on a
redhot summer day.

as he stood staring down at the hole
into which Peter had escaped it didn't
seem possible.
At first great rage took possession
of him. but it lasted only minute.

and he began to chuckle and with
that chuckle all his i'll temper dis

Paris.-The Bulgarian legation here has received the following telegram from Sofia:
 Serbian troops have crossed the frontier to occupy the territory de tached from Bulgaria by the treaty of Neuilly without awaiting the demarca- lion of the frontier and the settlement of numerous questions brought before the ambassadors conference in Paris.
 '"The Bulgarian government, finding the occupation premature, protested but to prove it's loyalty it ordered the Bulgarian authorities to withdraw without resistance.
 Serbian troops entered Tzaribrode All the stores were closed as d sign of mourning and three days of mourning have been declared throughout Bull garia.'

 There was a sharp clash between the communists and independent so- cialists over the question, but the mo- ton was voted down. About 1000 delegates attended the meeting.
 The workers in the German indus trial and commercial establishments who are now given an active voice in administration of them, were im- pressed in the congress with the need of conserv'ng raw products so that Germany may produce sufficient com modities to enable her to establish credits abroad with which to pay for the importation of the most necessary food and raw materials.

Oh that l had in the wilderness a iodg- ing place of wayfaring men.-Jeremiah 9:2
 ID ! THE wall of the busy city, G Ill the midst of the market place, Ye have lifted on high a temple, Ye have builded a house of grace. Amber and red the windows, Marble and tile the floor But I weep for a thousand pilgrims
 far
 Who never hive seen the door. Gorgeous the gilded altar, Pleasant the cushioned pew, Thrilling the chorused music Ringing the cloister through, Wonderful thing the sermon, Grilling the creeds absurd But I weep for a thousand woodsmen
 strong
 Who never have known the Word. Build me no mighty temple, Build me no jeweled shrine Build me a house of worship Under the solemn pine. I'll speak from rough-hewn pulpit To men of a rough-hewn race; And, with Gods great help, will
 bring them yet
 With the Master face to face!

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"kANGAR0O."

SNI HEN Captain Cooks expe- coast of Australia one of the first things the explorer did WAS to send some of his men ashore with instructions to bring back specimens of the plants, flowers and animals which appeared to be distinctive of the country. Two of the sailors returned with a beast which had ex- tfemely long hind legs. short fore paws and an exceptionally well developed tail. Cook, who Lad never seen anything of the kind, desired to learn something more about the strange animal and sent the men back to dis cover by what name the natives called it.
 Upon their return they report eG that the nearest they could come to it was Kangaroo. H At least, as one of the men de elared, 4that's what all the na- tives said when l pointed to the animal" So. when Captain Cook returned home, he brought with him the body of an animal which was introduced to natural history under the name kan garo0."
 Ii was not until q number of years later that if was found that kan ga-roo vas the Aus tralian equivalent for T don't know" which was the reason that the natives said this when Cooks men asked them q Ques- ton they didn't understand
