When it is day and traffic roa,rs aroand me in the street I need no guidance to elude die snares about my feet; When it is day I go my way among the haunts of men. Nor care who holds the stars in fipace; no fear assails me then; My only purpose is to learn to make my ventures pay; My only dread is of the ones who pass me on the way. When It is day. When it is night, and I, alone, walk down the quiet lane I hear the rustling blades of grass make God’s great purpose plain; W’hen it is night the gleaming stars that through the distance rull Send messages of nope to me and wake my sleeping soul; I hear the distant chimes that tell of time’s unceasing flight. And feel my littleness, with all the universe in sight, When it is night. When I have finished all my tasks, and when the pall is spread, Will splendid constellations still be gleaming overhead? When I shall put away t'^e hopes that cheered me at the dawn, \Mien. after all the Iveanis and schemes, the chill of night comes on, Will only empty darkness wrap a pulse less lump of clay. Or will the sun asain send forth a glad effulgent ray. To wake the dav? —S. E. YISEK. The Makes ^ j At® th® celebrated Warner'# Rust Proof, th« old Reliable R.

United States Senator Thomas P. Gore, of Oklahoma, was optimistic over the outlook for the democratic party in 1912. “All that the democrats have to do,” he said, “is to behave well in the house and senate, organize and win the presidency. “The democrats are fortunately sit uated with regard to the presidential nomination. They could hardly make a mistake were they to try. They have three or four or five forceful men to select from, who are in every w^ay fitted for the position. I think at this time that Woodrow Wilson will be the nominee, though the situation was dif ferent five months ago and may be different five months from now’. “Thirty-four democrr.ts and 23 re publicans are for the reciprocity meas ure,” said he, “and it will be passed without any material amendment, per haps without any amendment at all. Certainly there will be no such amendment that the house will refuse to concur in or that will jeopardize the approval of the bill by the president. CADETS OFF FOR BERLIN. Mr. C.

In the days when board schools were young a visit was paid to one o fthose schools by a local dignitory who had theories on the subject of Scripture lessons. He requested the headmaster to pick out a particularly dull boy and let him ask that lad a few questions. Whereupon the following dialogue en sued: “Now, George Jones, what do you understand by a miracle?" Boy, looking helplessly at visit(»r, makes no answer. Visitor (triumphantly, to headmas ter)—You see, it’s as I’ve always main tained. Scripture must be explained and illustrated if any comprehension of Its meaning is to penetrate t'uls sort of skull. He can’t tell me what a miracle is. Now hear me make him understand. Headmaster (with sarcastic Incred ulity)—if you do sir, you’ll have wrought a miracle yourself. I haven’t a duller boy in the school. If you’d question some of the others— Visitor—No, no; I’ll show you what I can do with this one, by using com mon sense methods. Now, my boy, pay attention to me. You don’t know what a miracle is, eh?” Boy confesses it by his silence. “Now listen to me. Suppose yoft got up in the middle of the night and saw the sun shining, what should you say it was?” Boy (promptly)—I should say It was the moon. Visitor (argumentatively)—But you couldn't, you know, if you saw it was the sun. Boy (doggedly) — I should see it asn’t. Visitor (recovering from a discon certing pause)—But if some one told you that it was the sun? Boy (emphatically)—I should say he was a liar. Visitor (angry at such persistent stu pidity)—But suppose I told you that It was really the sun. You wouldn’t dare to tell me that I was a liar, would you? Boy (hesitates a moment, then. In accents of conviction)—I should say you was werry drunk.-~Tlt-Bits.
