Ah, sure, the same's a thrir,in thing;

X mind the night 1 promised well,
Away on Ballandim,
An every little while or so
I thry forgettin Jim.
Jt shouldn’t take that long to di,
An him not very tqli;
»Tis quart the Way I’ll hoar ids voice,
A hey tkat’S i :t o’ call.
An whiles I see him stand as plain
As e’er a six foot wall.
Och, never fear, my jewel!
I’d forget ye now this minute,
if 1 only had "a notion
0’ the way I should begin at,
gut first and last it isn't know?
tRie heap o’ throubic’s in it.

An hasn’t done it yet;
I’m nearly fit .to Sive u U P>
For where’s the uss,to fret?
An the morning’s fairly spoilt on me
Wia tnindin to forget. O’Neill.

Miss Layoria Glenn
The following is taken from the
Missionary Column in the De
Kalb New Era:
“Miss Lay on a Glenn, who has
been spending a much needed va¬
cation’with her parents in Con¬
yers passed through Decatur last
week enroute to her missionary
labor in Brazil. The women of
Southern Methodist church have
in her a faithful, capable work repre¬ in
sentative. Her former
that far away country, and her
earnest pleas in its behalf during
her stay at home, have shown the that; lif
her heart is indeed in i
work she has chosen—that of win
ning souls ' for Christ who neve
knew His name. lhe love and j
prayers of a host of iiionds will i
go with her, and all unite in wish¬
ing that amid all circumstances;
she may ever have the assurance
that “Underneath are the
lasting arms.”
The pastime of assinating mod
j, ! ft ; n id rulers dates back to 1594, when
nun the Sileht was removed,
the chief motive being to secure
the 25,000 crowns offered for his
rival’s death by Philip II., of
Spain. Then followed Henry III.,
of France, killed by a man whose
J nUi -d was religiously disordered
Another religious fanatic killed
Henry IV, Sadie Carnot was as¬
sassinated by an Italian anarchist
only six years ago. Charlotte Cor
day was the only rational member
of her class, the death of her vic¬
tim, Marat, finally bringing to an
end the terrible Revolution. Rus¬
sia has lost three rulers by vio¬
lence—Ivan IV.. in 1764; Paul I.,
in 1801, and Alexander II., in 18-
81. Gustavus III., of Sweden,
was killed by an army officer act¬
ing under the inspiration of jeal¬
ous nobles. The American Re¬
public has lost two Presidents—
Lincoln, at the hands of a Booth,
and Garfield, from the bullet of a
half-crazed office-seeker, Guiteau.
Except in the case of the bloody
Marat absolutely nothing of ben¬
efit to surviving humanity was ac¬
complished by any of these assas¬
sins. King Humbert, of Italy,
the latest victim, was accounted a
wise and kind ruler.—Exchange.

agement she is meeting but hope
