charm of his spiritual life Was most
beautifully revealed, and the strength

therefore be it resolved,
1st. That In parting with Brother
Taylor wo feel ainslbly th« loss wbioh,
In common wMh others, we are o.illed
upon to bear.

rtbove his years, and In the knowledge
and defense of the trutSio of God's
word 'he was sound and uncompromis
ing.
3d. That we commend him ha the
OhriiMJans of hJs new charge as worthy
of their scceputfon, and us one who
has to lilgh natural endowments ad
ded -the culture of a rigid and refined
theological training. » teacher of no
mean ability ft genial companion, and,
above oT.l, a Ohristflui of the highest

The meeting of tho Good Government

taken and accomplished. Ho believed the

unite on such a ticket. In conclusion

ber of tho Good Government Club to vote

anybody to know where every dollar of
, went."

EGOTISTICAL, BUT ARTISTIC.
2L Paris* Klatue of Franca Presenting the
Ifevr Century to ihe World,
The roost beautifnl as vrell as tho most
egotistical bit of statuary that has been
unveiled In franco In many n day is a co
lossal bronze
group called "The
liopubllc Present
ing to tho World
tho Now Ccntu-
ry. M Tho repub
lic Is represented,
as usual, by tho
hondsomo figuro
of a woman, while
tho now contury
is typified by tho
infant in her
arms. Both fig*
■ urea aro of bronze,
• and tho group is
'about seven fcot
in height. Tho
statuo was recent
ly unveiled in tho
French town of
V illonouvo-sur-
Lofc and baa at
tracted a great
deal of attention
among lovers of
art. *
Tho statuo is
tho work of A!.
Paris, a French
THE statue. sculptor whose ex
hibits occupied deservedly prominent posi
tions at tho World’s fair in Chicago and
wero greatly admired by vlsltora to the
French section of tho Fine Arts palace.
After the close of the fair they wero given
honored places In some of tho leading art
gallorics of tho country.
That Franco la a great country no ono
will deny, but it requires a stretch of tho
imagination to discover her right, or tho
right of any other country, for that mat
ter, to usurp tho functions of Father Timo
oven in n group of statuary. Wbilo tho
Idea is somewhat too fanciful and egotis
tical to win tho favor of sculptors and art
lovers of other countries, it will do very
well for homo exhibition. Divested of its
preauxnptuouB idea and viowed simply as n
work of art, tho statuo cannot fail to ndd
materially to tho already high reputation
of M. Paris.

The feist express goes whirling by
Tho siding where the way freight stands
Lazily clouding tho summer eky '
With Its smoke. With grimy hands
I wipe tho sweat from my sun tanned face,
Wondering, murmuring, “Is there use
In living if for lire my place
Must be upon a red caboose?”
She is the president’s daughter-fair,
Fawnliko end faultless as e’er was known,
Alines of gold in her wavy hair,
Cheeks like rosss, May timo blown.
Only a glimpse—the fast express
On to the eastward takes its way. —J

Such is life and such is fate.
She rides by on tho fa3t express,

“It is that,” assented Mrs. Horlihy, and
then as her eyes wero attracted to some
threads nrrougod in hieroglyphic fashion
in tho comer of tho shawl sho added: “But

“Niver pick thlm out, Norah, darlin,”

Will it ho a comfort to tho lounger to
know that tho empress of all tho Indies
and high and mighty ruler of tho British
empire abhors now clothes, tight shoes and
innovations of overy description that

queen goes about In tho morning without
any corsets or crimps, wearing a loose
black silk wrapper and a pa*r of slippers
that aro run down at tho hocls. Most peo
ple givo away tholr old clothes, but she
gives her new boots and now gowns to
charity und hangs on to tho tried end
comfortable pets of her wardrobe. She
takos breakfast at 8:30 o'clock overy morn
ing in the year, and when at Balmoral
two magnificent Scotch laddies, in plaids
and kilts, play the bagpipes while sho
takes her coffeo and cake. Coffee and
