The Fourth Book OF Moses, Called

CHAPTER s--continued,

Speak unto Aaron, and say un-
to him, When thou lightest the
lamps. the seven lamps shall give
light over against tho candlestick.
3 And Aaron did so; he lighted
the lamps thereof over against the
candlestick, as the Lord commanded
Moses.
4 And this work of the candle
stick was of beaten gold; unto the
shaft thereof, unto the flowers
unto the pattern which the Lord
had Showed Moses, so he made the
candlestick.
And the Lord spake unto
Moses, saying.
9 Take the LeviteE from among
the children of Israel, and cleanse
them.
And thus shalt thou do unto
them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle
water Of purifying upon them, and
let them shave all their flesh, and
let them wash their clothes, and
so make themselves clean.
Then let them take a young
bullock with his meat offering, even
fine flour mingled with oil, and
another young bullock shalt thou
take for a sin offering.
9 And thou shalt bring the Le-
vites before the tabernacle OF the
congregations: and thou shalt gather
the whole assembly of the children
of Israel together.
10 And thou shalt bring the Le-
vites before the Lord: ana the chill
dren Of Israel shall put their hands
upon the Levites:

THE CITY.
by EDMUND VANCE COOKE.

Around me and cbout me
A million nortSls rave,
And hit their heels
And whlrl their wheels
Against the cobbled pave.
They fiout me and they shout me;
They shrek from quest 20 quest
/ clank my chains
And rasp my brains
To riot with the rest.
Yet scarce an hour beyond me
/ know a haIf-hushed glade
OF falry-blooms
And fern-perfumes
And sun-embroidered shade.
where none may bind or bond me.
Nor any business ban,
Where one might play
The dulcet day
At hide-and-seek with Pan.
A brook slips by concealing
A thousand shy delights;
A moss-soft ledge
Beside its edge
Invites me--and Invites!
A harmony comes stealing
As from enchanted ground;
A silent song,
Age-old. age-lonE
Which wraps the soul around
A rhapsody Of quiet,
OF pleasure almost pain.
As some wild throat
Flutes forth a note
As sweet ~ summer rain.
Yet / am of this riot
OF tubed and lsddered levels.
Where earth has speved z
her hunted brood tat
As Eell might speF Its devilss

WHY WORRY7

We worry lots. the most OF us,
and make the dickens Of a fuss
about expected ills and aches
that prove at last to he but fakes.
Most all the troubles that we fear
but nzzle out apd disappear. and
those remaining e'er they come,
are apt to be diminished some.
1t Isn't wise to count the batch
of chickens e'er they fully hatch,
and he who on the bridge would sit
must wait until he reaches it. *
It's better far to figure how to
DO whate'er confrohts us now,
than ache about q looked-for III
that hasn't come and never will.
