THE WELCOME VISITOR.
HOWDY. MI?s Prosperity.
Standi!)' ut the sate?
Wo was afraid tliat you might
be
Kep' out u little late.
There'd sure be a commotion
Mont general and strong
If you should take a notion
To stay away too Icng.
Howdy. Miss Prosperity?
The farm hands gather round.
And factory whistles swell the glee
With their exultant sound.
We've been some tlmo a-waltln"
To see your gentle smile.
So don't be hesltatln'.
But come In an' stop awhile.
?Washington Star.
LIFE AND SONG.
IF life wero caught by a clarinet
And a wild heart, throbbing In the
reed.
Should thrill Its Joy and trill Its fret
And utter Its heart In every deed.
rpHEN would this breathing clarinet
Type what the poet fain would bo.
i For none of the singers ever yet
Has wholly lived his minstrelsy,
OR clearly sung his true, true thought.
Or utterly bodied forth his life,
Or out of life and song has wrought
That perfect 01 o of man and wife.
OR lived and sung, that llfo and song
Might each express tho other's all,
1 Careless If life or art were long.
Since both wero one, to stand or fall.
QO that tho wonder struck the crowd.
Who shouted about the land.
His song was only living aloud.
His work a singing with his hand.
?Sidney Lanier.
ANTHONY WAYNE.
O'ER the glade the closo knit col?
umns
Of "Mad Anthony" have sped
Like the (lying 'l'heban phalanx
That Epamlnondas led.
Solemn flows tho stately Hudson
Round tho fort rock, blood anoint.
And the men of Wayne are knocking
At the gates of Stony Point.
8llent In the sheltering midnight,
(Julded by the warding stars.
With the Pleiades' white glory
Paling to red of Mars,
Never cry for clank of saber
Now the shield of stillness frets.
While the starlight Dickers faintly
On the shouldered bayonets.
Sudden speak the flaming cannon.
Sudden rains the rending shot.
Upward, onuard sweep the columns
That can sway, but waver not.
Over outwork, over bastion.
Thick Into the wild melee.
Dawn light gleams upon their sabers.
Victory upon their fray!
Young "Mad Anthony" they call him.
But his courage calm and tine
He has borne through storied battles?
Uermantown und Brandywlne.
From tho Hudson's northern reuches
To the far Savannah's shore
Men shall hall his shot torn banners
Now? tomorrow? evermore!
? Clu-ster Firkins.
ROSES AND MYRTLE.
"nOSES and myrtle may bloom forever,
^ But love from your eyes will be gone
some day.
Laughter and song may bo silenced never.
Out Ringing of yours can but erase for
aye.
VXD what are all roses of others' giv
ing
And what Is all sons when your volCj Is
mute?
Then death were a grace beyond graco of
living.
And silence were better than voice or
lute.
rpHE old. old question to us together
-*? Gives pauso to Joy In our melting lips
Why tremble with love In this glad June
weather
When death must at last be our love's
eclipse?
I SPEAK and you answer, you smile and
I listen.
And Just for a moment the world seems
glad.
But then In the silence a tear drop's glis
ten
Outshines forever the hope wo had. '
milE Joy that we drink from a past
-*? pain's chalice
Is sweeter by far than a Joy unrimmed.
But laughter and love, though they light
a palace.
Grow dark and cold from their end pre
llmned.
?Lewis Worthlngton Smith.
THAT HOLY THING.
THEY all were looking for a king *
To slny their foes and lift them
high:
Thou catn'st. a little baby thing
That made a woman cry.
OSON* of Man. to right my lot
Naught but thy rresence can avail.
Yet on the road tlry wheels arc not
Nor on the sea thy sail!
MY how or when thou wilt not heed.
But come <l?wn thino own secret
stair
That thou may'st answer all my need
Yea, every bygono prayer.
?George Macdonald.
BIRTH.
G?,
D thought:
A million blazing worlds were wrought.
God willed;
Earth rose while all creation thrilled.
God spoke,
And In the garden love awoke.
God smiled;
Lo. In the mother's arms n child!
?Frederic Lawrenco Kno jrles.
A BUILDER'S lCsSO*.
?? J JOW shall I a habit broak?"
I As you did that habit make,
I I As you gathered you must
X X lose.
As you yielded now refuse.
Thread by thread the strands wo twist
Till they bind our neck and wrist.
Thread by thread the patient hand
Must untwlno ere free we stand.
As wo bullded. stone by stone.
Wo must toll unhelped, alone.
Till the wall Is overthrown.
But. remember, as we try
Lighter every test goes by.
Wading In. the stream grows deep
Toward the center's downward sweep.
Backward turn, each step ashoro
Shallower Is than that before.
Ah. the precious years we waste
Leveling what we raised In haste.
Doing what must bo undone
Ere content or love be won!
First across the gulf wo cast
Kite borne threads till lines are passed
And habit builds the bridge at last.
?John Boyle O'Reilly.

DOUBT DISAPPEARS
No One in Alaska Who Ha6 a Bad
Back Can Ignore This Double Proof.
Does your back ever ache?
Have you suspected your kidneys?
Backache Is kidney ache.
With it comes dizzy spalls,
Sleepless nights, tired, dull days.
Distressing urinary disorders.
Cure the kidneys to cure It all.
Doan's Kidney Pills bring quick re
lief.
Bring thorough, lasting cures.
That'd what Alaskan sufferers want
Profit then by another's testimony,
Twice-told and well confirmed.
Mrs C. A. McCourt, 253 So. Forti
eth St., Tacoma, Wash., says: "I
have no hesitation in confirming the
public statement I gave some years
ago In favor of Doan's Kidney Pills,
as the euro 1 received from their use
has been permanent I suffered a
great deal from severe pains through
my kidneys. 1 also lacked energy,
was subject to dizzy spells and was
caused annoyance by a weakness of
my kidneys. When Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention,
I procured a box and a few doses
gave me suchgreat relief that I con
tinued taking them until every symp
tom of my trouble was disposed of.
I cannot say too much in favor of
Doan's Kidney Pills."
