My heart was heavily burdened With the troubles that school work brings, And the thought of examination Really made the tear-drops spring. it was near the close of my first school year When my heart was 80 heavy and sore, For my work was not what I wanted it to be And sorrow over my spirit poured; Then my mind became wrapped in the thought Of the long weary years yet to come, Before I should cross the great ocean, And leave my dear mother and home; W hen I should be able to go all ‘The great commission of Him, Who has so tenderly said, Go, my beloved disciples and break To them the living bread. Then my whole soul burned within me At the dreaded thought of millions Sinking into pain and woe, _Dying for the love oi Jesus, Who bas conquered death and every foe, And to all who will accept Him There’s mercy and grace freely given, And then at last when you pass away e will give you a home in heaven. But whal of those who have never heard The glad sweet story revealed in His word? Shallthe millions who are perishing every day Never hear of this bleesed way! What of the days that are passing by Afe they wasted time And is the end drawing nigh? What’er be the color, the tribe or the race May we hasten with joy and give them this grace. Then I thought of the many opportanities That the young of this age now enjoy, And are we making the best of every one Or, are we playing with them as a toy? And when we stand before the great throne Will our hands be clean from the blood, Of the poor perishing heathen Who are sinking beneath the flood? Then Arise! O young man, U young woman And come tip to the help of the Lord, To warn the poor heathen of hie error Go ont with the shield and the sword, And now may the old as wellas the young Forget not to sow their good seea, But remember the words of that loving one Who taught us the plan of good deeds, And now may we all remember the words _ of the dear old prophet of old Who inepired of the Lord gave this command "In the early morning sow thy seed And at eve withhold not thy hand’’ Let us earnestly pray Him to hasten the time When many shall say, not my will, U Lord, but thine, Then we shall be able to see ibe people of every nation Won to Christ in this generation, i. : Fipeed ina For mosquito bites, bites or stings of insects, animals or reptiles, apply Ballard’s Snow Liniment.

Chicago, Aug. 14.—School teachers and other summer students at the Vniversity of Chicago who have reached a mature age in a state of single blessedness were startled yes- terday when Dr. E, Benjamin An- drews, chancellor of the university of Nebraska, advised them to get mar- ried. ; “The unmarried individualamounts to almost nothing,” said Dr. An- drews. “The part of the single per- son in life is not entirely void of the opportunity to do good, Still, it must be admitted that it leads one into a very narrow life. I do not mean that the unmarried individual isofno use to theworld. Individual- ness is minimized in the state. They all have defects of character, Look at the recent desperadoes and crooks, Were they married? Then look at ourgreat men, Washington, Lincoln, Grant, McKinley, and farther to the birth of Christ. A closeexamination will reveal the fact that they were nearly all married men, It is the same with women. The noted ones were married. “Besides this, the unmarried indi- vidual has no place in society what- ever. Some may think this is un- true, but a close study of the condi- tions will disprove and reveal the truth of what I have said.” In his lecture Prof. Andrews said: “Ifl had 100 or 1,000 children, 1 would want every one of them to play football, if they were strong enough, and play it hard andstrenu- ously. Boys ought to be trained in strenuousness; that is the great value of footfall. It is a school in endur- ance, courage and resolution. I thoroughly believe in the game.” To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tab- lets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cure. E. W.

London, Aug. 13.—Keferring to the expected arrival uf the generals in Southampton on Saturday, the St. James Gazette to-day says that if it can _be conveniently arranged Gens. Botha, De Wet and Delarey will probably visit the king on board the royal yacht Victoria and Albert af- ter the naval review on that day. The king desires to assure the Boers that he is deeply interested in their welfare, and hopeful that they will co-operate in upholding the hon- or of the empire. According to present plans the Boer generals will be conducted from the transport Saxon aboard the Ni- geria, where Lord Kitchener will pre- sent them to Colonial Secretary Chamberlain and other members of the cabinet. Later they will go aboard the royal yacht. =~ It is believed the Koercommanders will come to London before starting for Holland. The Bones of a Primeval Bear. — Berkley, Cal., Aug. 13.—Eustace L.

A Sample of Republican Pretenses. His Missouri and His Kansas Speeches Compared. E. E. E. MeJimsey, editor of the Maryville Tribune, who was chai:- man of the late republican state con- vention at Jefferson City, recently addressed therepublicansat Topeka, Kas., and in his speech he told the following truth: “Every year we make a great deal of noise over in Missouri and claim the republicans are going to carry the state, but you have noticed that when the votes are counted we don’t carry the state, but areeverlastingly suowed under. “We do all the talk necessary, but you see our blow and bluster don’t scare the average Missouri democrat worth a cent. I'm awfully disgusted when I hear our republican friends talk before election about carrying Missouri, and the returns come’ in— as they always do—showing the re- publicans have lost in every part of the state. But still we have republi- cans who keep on talking about car- tying Missouri, but it didn’t fool anybody unless it is some republi- cans in Kansas.” Last week a local organ published a speech delivered at the recent re- publican state convention by E. &. E. MeJimsey. Among other things MeJimsey said: “LT search nature in vain for a sim- ilitude that shall adequately por- tray the consternation dnd ruin which the prayers” of the Missouri democracy can neither avert nor much longer postpone. It has been estimated that as inany as 40,000 so uls found a frightful burial ‘neath the liberated hell from the hateful heart of Martinique’s fire-belching mountain. Not quite such a direful doom awaits the enemies of pure and popular government in old Missouri, but sad to them and glad to us _ will be the November day when the 350,- 000 democrats of Pukedom find deep and everlasting burial ‘neath the storm of ballots which an indignant and pilfered people shall rain upon their brazen and offending heads.” Commenting on this speech the Linneus Bulletin sayseditorially: “On reading this familiar prophecy putin such sophomoric language, one is constraitied to ask, who is MeJimsey? Concretly, McJimsey is @ republican editor, who lives in Maryville, a good town located in the good county of Nodaway. in the great state which he refers to as “Pukedom.”” Who is MeJimsey? He isa bird—evidently of the sort that befouls its own nest. It was McJimeey who madea speech ata gathering of Kansas postmasters, and there vilified Missouri in terms that endeared him to the Jayhawk- er’s heart, professing to hate Mis- souri and her institutions, he yet does not seek another haven, where his bile-soaked soul may find things more to his likeing. MeJimsey stay- ed with us because it is only here that his ilk may be found. Yes; there are others like unto him in Missouri, and this fact leads us to study the man in the abstract; or take up the Mc- Jimseys as a class. Who are the MeJimseys? . The McJimseys are the pariahs of their party, who, for the privilege of strutting an hour before a state con- vention, ,will undertake any dirty work, even to the libeling of thestate wherein their homes are made. But give them leave to stand in the brief glare of the calcium ‘and they will call Missouri ‘“Pukedom, “its officers “robbers” and its people “fools.” Publicity, though brief, and a litt’e federal pap areall that are necessary to get the MecJimseys in working condition, No one hears of them until “caim- paign year comes around, and the odor of political pie is floating on the winds. Like buzzards, only one sort of food attracts them; they work at naught else. They plan nothing of importance, they build nothing great.

Washington, August 11.—Charges involving the integrity of the govern- ment appraisers in the custome ser- vice and indicating gigantic steals in connection with the admission of china and pottery from abroad have been made to Secretary of the Treas- ury Shaw. The losses are said toex- ceed even the amounts lost through the frauds in -hipanese silks. It is asserted that a system of under.yal- uation has been practiced for the last twenty years, loss to the treasury of from 31,000, O00 to SLS00,000 ¢ which has caused a year. The complaint is made by men in- terested in the pottery ‘industry of the United States, the headquarters of whichis in Trenton, N. Jd. They declare that the wages paid abroad jare less than Oue-third those paid in this country and that if the duty provided by law is not colleeted here they are placed at the mercy of the foreign producers.
