ih I*A(jE six. 9® si st MM-. Cm & is sec Song of liifc. A traveler on it dusty toad Strewed acorns on the lea And one took root and sprouted up, And grew into a tree. Xove sought its shade at even-time, To breathe its early vows And Age was pleased, in heights of! noon, I To bask beneath its boughs. I The dormouse loved its dangling twigs. The birds sweet music bore— It stood a glory in its place, A blessing ever more. A little spring had lost Its way Amid the grass and fern A passing stranger scooped a well Where weary men might turn. He walled it in. and hung with care A ladle on the brink He thought not of the. deed he did, But judged that Toil might drink. He passed again and lo! the well, By summer never dried. Had cooled ten thousand parched tongues, And saved a life beside. A nameless man, amid the crowd, That thronged the daily mart, Let fall a word of hope and love, Unstudied from the hear:.— A whisper on the tumult thrown, A transitory breath, It raised a brother from the dust, It saved a soul from death. O germ: O fount! word of luvo O thought at random cast: Te ware but little at the first. But mighty at the last. —Charles Mackay The Frances K. Willard Memorial meeting of the W. C. T. L". which was held yesterday afternoon at the resi dence of Mrs. P. H.

Building at 'Frisco Fair Great Boom to the Women 4. The Young Women's Christian as sociation is planning.a strong program of speakers drawn from its own ranks, and also from prominent men and women whose work is related to the broader lines of association activities. Problems in home economics, hygiene, physical training and recrcatlon, ques tions of thrift and efficiency and kin dred subjects are to be listed for dis cussion. Films picturing actual association work are to be thrown on the screen daily. In addition to the motion pic ture and stereopticon exhibit, the halls of the building both upstairs and down will display the winning models —the results of a nation-wide contest. All over the country the girls of the city associations have been working to compete for national prizes. Awards will be made for the best business girl's costume. The decision will be based upon suitability, economy and workmanship. In the department of thrift and efficiency, budgets will be shown giving a distribution of salary calculated to conserve health of body and mind, to provide for moderate recreation and to save up for the fu ture. There will be awards for stories, songs, short articles, photographB and original drawings. The building on the exposition grounds is more than a center of In formation and exhibit of work done elsewhere. It is a real Young Wom en's Christian association at work. A trained worker will give full time to the girls and women employed at the big fair. There will be between 2, 000 and 3,000 of these girls. .They must be aided in securing trustworthy living accommodations. The exposition officials have asked the association to look after any girls who are discharged from the various concessions. They have said that if some probation scheme is arranged, whereby the difficulty with the girl can be remedied, there will be the possibility of reinstating her. If she should be permitted to drift out into the city alone and discouraged, she would be open to every sort of temp tation. It is the intention of the Young Women's Christian association to offer friendship and practical help through its secretaries and members. Wholesome recreation and relaxation is to be provided. There are to be evening classes in salesmanship, bookkeeping, typing, and stenography, conducted in the as sociation building. They will be open to employes of the exposition at a nominal cost. A club room offers an opportunity for social gatherings, and a series of talks on hygiene, dress and comfort will be open to the girls who wish to attend. As the only strictly woman's build ing on the grounds, it is expected that it will be in constant use and do a genuine and much needed service. Kongsvlnger Lutheran. N. 11. Lohre, pustor.

In the next few years the only event which stands out as having marred our serenity was the death of my brother, and the event occasioned me distinct relief.

If I could not remedy a situation, I have always made it a rule to be blind to it, for 1 hate quarrels, so I let things go and asked no questions. When he was gone, however, I made cumetanccs. Mother wailed that it would kill her never to see her only grandchild, "the only one I am ever likely to have," she slyly added. I made my self very clear on the subject and I believe mother obeyed me, though of course 1 suppose elie went to see them. After we had been running the house for about six years and had established its reputation I decided that the slow summer period was a totally unnecessary event. There were always two, sometimes three months of let down, and mv people were continually saying: "Oh, how I hate the summer! Of course we have to get out of town, and summer hotels are never comfortable. We do so hate to leave you even for a few weeks. Miss Elizabeth." The seed was sown and the idea ECZEMA ALL GONE!

The habit was fairly supercial, though, and after a few days of indulgence in prostration and tears sho cheered up and went with me to look things over. It was a joy, that little place. Only about forty people could be accommo dated, and 1 instantly saw its possi bilities of homelike charm. I put the same energy into it and experienced the same delight I had found in furnishing and equipping the town house. It -was ready for busi ness June 1, and I practically moved the entire establishment out, for every soul'who lived with us in town welcomed the chance of being able to go on being under the same man agement during' the summer. Verily I was a born hotel keeper. Why didn't I "keep to my knitting?" We had been running the country place for three years (I never 'bought it, always succeeded in renting on my own terms) when my revolution came.

I went up the very day after 1 had heard of it, saw the woman who wanted to dispose of it, and before the week was over I had arranged to rent the place for the summer, with a. view to buying in the fall, if I was successful in the new venture. I decided to take a vacation that year and rest. I stayed out for two weeks and worked harder, and with more exhausting results, at trying to play and have a good time than I ever did at my work. It was with thanksgiving that I went back to my regular routine. THe power wasted in belts, shafts and pulleys would run many a factory— but it doesn't do you any good.

If I could have foreseen tho future in some sort of revelatory flash would I have gone on or turned back1.' Now, as I look back, am I glad or sorry'.' If what happened never had hap pened, my life would doubtless have gone on in peaceful monotony for as many years as 1 chose to keep in the harness. My business would have gone on until the end (for that would have probably been the same), and then 1 would probably have devoted mvself to running successful hotels.
