What is ihe sighing? It is noi long: One in the end are the sigh and song, One in faith, and one in doubt The cry of the vanquished ihe vicior's shout. Victor and vanquished musi creep for rest When the dust is blown o'er the dreamless breasi. And what is the transient gloom and glow; Is ihe beautiful love thai we cling to so, The rose-red lip, and ihe sparkling eye ? A gracious greeting a sad goodbye! With pallid faces and lips grief-prest, The lovers creep to ihe rose for rest. So we smile at the dark on the pathway rough; There shall be sunshine and rest enough, After the siormy ways are past, Rest shall be the sweeter at last ai last ! Dust on a rose on a dreamless breast IN THE EYES OF THE LAW. I Policeman's Stand Against Im modest Attire Would Seem to Be Somewhat Far-Fetched. Two girls were crossing a Coney Island street. One had on a heavy, old-fashioned brilliamine bathing suit, with long skirt, high neck and elbow sleeves. The other was in street clothes. A policeman slop ped them. "You!" he called to the bathing beauty, you can t pass here dressed like that. Go back and put on some decern clothes!" The girl looked down at herself, then up at the policeman and smiled. "Why, look at Mme!" she ex claimed, what about her gelling by?" The officer glanced ai ihe oiher eirl. She wore a filmy nei waisf, glaringly iransparent;gener. uusly decollete, and a skirt ending a few inches abover her knees. "But she is dressed, said ihe guardian of ihe law. Now you go and put some clothes on or you can'i pass here, see?" Catarrhal Deafness Can't be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear, There is only one way to cure deafness, aud that ia by conntiti tional remedies. Deafness ia caused by an inflamed con. ditiou of the mucous lining of the Kiis. tachian Tube. When this tube ia liaiued vou have a rumbling Bound or imperfect hearing, aud when it is entire, ly closed, Deafness is the result, and uut less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out often are caused by Catarrh, which ia nothing but. au in. flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

THE POWER OF POSITION. 'If I Be Lifted Up I Will Draw All Men Unto Me ' We began our trip with a day at Niagara Falls. As we siood watch ing the rush of mighty waier the iremendous power of it fascinated us and made us forget ourselves. There is enough power in the falls turn all the wheels of ihat pari of the country. Where does Niagara Falls get iis power? And how is ii thai such vasi power is stored up in the wa ter of Niagara, whereas water of many limes ihat volume, such as ihe Dead Sea, is powerless? Of course the power is noi inherent in the water itself; if ihe Dead Sea could be raised 10 the top of a cliff and poured over ihe edge, it also would have vast power; but there it lies thirteen hundred feel be low ihe level of ihe sea licking ihe power even to lifta tiny stream oui or us own depths 10 serve the world. No, the power is not inherent in the water itself: it is ihe poer of position! And as I looked at ihe rushing water, I thought of another power, not ol water, but of souls the power of an endless life. What was ii thai made Paul able to say, lean do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me"? It was not ihe power inherent in Paul himself, for not many years before his spiritual power was low like the water of the Dead Sea. He had suuk into ihe depths of selfish ness and sin. The power of Paul and the pow er of every soul mighty in Christ is the power of position. It is he power of ihe life lived above the sordid world. Christ said, "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me." He was "lifted up," and He has shone down with his infinite light and warmth into the sea of sin and raised souls to himself. There in that position of power beside Christ we are no longer helpless like the Dead Sea but have infinite powerso thai we can say, "I can do all things."
