By Kx Uovernor bob Taylor, of Tennessee. "I saw the morning, with purple i quiver anil burnished bow, stand tiptoe on tlie horizon and shoot sunbeams at the vanishing dark-. ness of night, then reach up and j gather ihe stars and hide them in i her tvjsom, and then bend down and tickle the slumbering world j wiih Mraws of light till it woke i with laughter and with song. A ! thousand bugle- calls from rosy fires of the east heralded her coin ing; a thousand smiling meadows kissed her garments as she passed, and ten thousand laughing gardens unlurled their flower flags to greet her. The heart of the deep forest throbbed a tribute of birdsongs, and the bright waters rippled a melody of welcome. Young life and love, radiant with hope and sparkling with dew drops of exul tant joy, came hand in hand, trip ping and dancing in her shining train, and I wished that the heaven of the morning might last forever. "1 saw the evening hang her silver crescent on the sky and rival splendor of the dawn with the glory of the twilight. I saw her wrap the shadows around her, and with a lullaby on her lips.rock the weary world to rest; then 1 saw her with her dipper full of dew droDS and her basket lull of dreams, slip back to the horizon of the morning and steal the stars again. The gardens furled their flag flowers and the meadows fell asleep; the song of the forest fell into silence, and the melancholy water whispered a pensive good night to the drowsy birds and sleepy hollows. Life and love. with halo of parting day upon their brows and the starlight tingled in their hair walked arm inarm among the gathering shadows and wove all the sweet memories of the morning into their happy evening that it might never end. "Thus life steals us from the dust. We wake to think and sleep to dream. We love, and laugh, and weep, and sing, and sigh, un til death steals us back 10 dust again. CALOMEL IS MERCURY! IT SICKENS!

BALLROOM PATHOS. Look up, not down I The skies are overhead, Where still are shining sun and stars and moon; What if today the clouds make dark the noon ? The sweet light will return w hen clouds have fled Look up in hope ? Above the watery waste God's spirit broods, and some day lite new earth Will find, out of the throes of this rebirth, it's Paradise, but God is not in haste. Look up and trust ! Above the wrath of man, Above the swirl of jealousies and hate, Unmoved the throne of God; just wait; Tomorrow you will see His perfect plan. I ook up ! The Right nitisi have ihe right of way; Might is but weakness when allied Willi Wrong; The powers of righteousness, when few, are strong, And in the conflict ever win the day. Look up, O soul, and fear not the ark ! The fl ighted dove her olive-leaf will bring; The waters will subside, and a new spring Will tell of bright days glowing from the dark. Tragedy oi the Yearning Heart That Was Left to Itself A UNIQUE ADDRESS, THIS PREACHER HAS A WAY OF HIS OWN. J. Whitcomb Brougher has never yet followed in the footsteps of a living soul. He has a way of bis own; he is different. After tall, there is nothing so interesting as a variety. The trouble with most preachers is that they are commonplace. They say w hat they are expected to say, and what others have said. If they have any originality they are afraid to show it. They dread sensationalism more than they do dull ness. No, we would not have preachers preach like Brougher, but we are glad that he preaches as he does. If he preaches as we preach he would preach to congregations "as small and select" as the congre gations to which we preach. At the Los Angeles Convention Dr. Brougher gave an address of welcome which was "Brougher classic." In this address he said : You are as welcome as the sunshine after a storm. You are as wel come as a summer after a winter in Chicago. You are as welcome as the first baby in a new home. You are as welcome as a baby at Methodist christening. You are as welcome as the whale was to Jonah when "all at sea." You are as welcome as a meal to a hobo. You are as welcome as a watermelon to a negro. You are as welcome as a sweetheart to an old maid. You are as welcome as a pretty girl to an old bachelor. You are as welcome as a moiher-m-law s departure on a long journey. You are as welcome as a vacation to a school kid You are as welcome as a base-ball game is to a fan. You are as wel come as a tip to a waiter. You are as welcome as a big salary to prcacheis. You arc as welcome as a successful election to a doubtful candidate. You are as welcome as prosperous times to a Democratic administration. You are as welcome as European peace would be to the world. If you can think of anything else that is more welcome than anything 1 have mentioned, then that is just how welcome you are. Watchman Examiner. A QUESTION OF TIME.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S C ASTQR I A The fourth dunce was nearly over, and she was still sitting by the wall, her hands clasped in her lap and her blank program dang ling at her side. The expression of pleasure which had been spon taneous at the beginning of the evening had become fixed and strained through the long period of waiting. At last the music ceased, and ihe dancers Hushed and laughing, scattered about the hall. The girl rose stiffly and tried to mingle with the crowd. A few acquaintances, nodded absently, then moved away. Bold in her distress, she elbowed her way into a noisy group and laid her hand timidly upon the arm of one of the girls, "Thai's a pretty dress, Marie," she said, trying 10 smile. "Thank you. Are you having a good lime?" 'Lovely," she answered, with a brave attempt to smile. Her friend hesitated, then turned deliberately to her own coterie. The wall flower stood awkward ly outside the closed circle, then pushed toward another group. The music started up; there was mad confusion, and the girl was caught in a scurry of young men finding their partners. Left alone in the middle of the floor and buf feted by the dancers, there was nothing for her 10 do but seek the wall again. Her cheeks burned in confusion as she found herself again sur rounded by vacant chairs. She moved to the side of two girls sit ting farther down the hall. For a moment she felt less conspicuous, But both girls were claimed by their partners, and she was left alone against the wall. Pretty girls glanced at her with genuine pity; girls of uncertain popularity eyed her scornfully as they passed. At IumI, blinded tiy d I uaii uf liot tears, she arose and went from the music and merriment into the si lence of the deserted dressing room. ban hrancisco Kulleim. li ii ii Mi i h ii it ii 1 T HE Ice season is at hand and I earnestly (f me a liberal share oi take in consideration" furnished vou ice both ft have made it pos- -V any lime uuriite; the Ml The Next Best Thing To The Pine Forest for Colds Is In, Bell s nne-lar-Honey nlneh goes to the root of the cold troubles.
