LONGING.
Tell me, ye rocks or heaven's arched skies.
Is there ft place where friendship neve.- dies.
Where to our hearts
No knowledge comet of piercing' wrongs
Or sad tho'ts crowd in countleas throngs
To deaden life's bright dream.
Where doubts dwell not nor fears
Molest our happiness?
Oh, answer back, ye hills, and say
There is a land where endless day
Claims one perpetual song.
Where friendship's flowers live for aye
And bope'a refreshing stream
Flows constantly, with love's sail
Furled upoa itl
Ho night ere comes to lead us where
The rocks lay hidden under
Or storms arise in friendship's skies
To tear our barks asunder.
Oh, may'st thou lead us quickly on
Ere tired we grow of waiting .
Into that land of love and song
Where Joys are unabating.

Summer Romance
In a City.
"No, I'm tired of seaside romances,
so I propose to stay here and see what
sort of romance a summer in New
York has to offer."
Sam Storrow. Jumped upon a north
bound electric car as. he spoke, leaving
the man to whom he had announced
his plans in a speculative mood.'
"I'll bet," murmured Ralph Ralston,
as ho hailed the next south bound car,
"that Storrow's had a row with Madge
Marbury."
Since the date, just four years ago,
when they had left Harvard, neither
Sam Stonow uor Ralph Ralston had
settled down to any serious occupa
tion. They had devoted themselves
to the somewhat indefinite pastime of
"looking around.".
It had been the kind of looking
around usual with Idle men of private
means moderate dissipation and love
making, or tile preteu! i of lovemaklng,
with women who were as well off and
as Idle ns themselves.
But It must lie admitted of the two
Storrow's life had been much the more
innocent, and his affair with Miss
Madge Marbury might have resulted
In matrimony ere this were It not for
the frequency of their petty quarrels,
none of which might ever have occur
red If they had not had so much Idle
time to quarrel in.
The excitement of these little tiffs
bad begun to pall upon him, and when
the last one occurred he decided that
be would stay In town when Madge
went away. In fact, be was bard up
ror a new sensation.
The electric car whirled hlra "rapidly
up Madison avenue. He looked at the
monotonous array of drawn shades In
the bouse fronts inevitable symptom
of the summer season and the thought
came to him of the darkened, silent re
ception rooms so gay with beauty and
fashion in winter time. But the butter
flies bad fled to shore and mountain,
leaving Madison avenue to console It
self until their return. Miss Madge
Marbury bad gone to Bar Harbor.
Goodby, Mr. Storrow, she bad said
to him Just before they parted. "I
hope you'll find some romance in the
city to compensate you for your self
Imposed and solitary martyrdom."
These words came back to blm now,
and the recollection made blm feel
more than ever resolved to find bis ro
mance during bis summer in town. He
would not have Madge Marbury chaff
blm on ber return.
Ralph Ralston thoroughly disagreed
with Sam Storrow as to the relative
charms of city and seaside In summer.
This was natural, for the two men had
never agreed upon any question since
the day they first met, and neither bore
much love toward the other.
So a few days after the meeting with
Storrow Ralston was In the vortex of
Bar Harbor's gay life, troubling him
self very little about romance and con
tent with agreeable realities.
There was no more agreeable reality
than bis present proximity to Miss
Madge Marbury on the veranda of a
cottage that nestled picturesquely up
among the pines.
Tbey were enjoying the beauty of
the cool Maine night The Intense blue
of the heavens gave tnat suggestion of
Illimitable vastness which, though the
suggestion may be always there, Is
only borne In on us under the spell of
certain moods; the song of the pines
kept time with the more distant music
of the Incoming tide, and the breeze
came laden with a mingled fragrance
of balsam and odor of ocean brine.
"Can you Imagine, Miss- Marbury, a
more fantastic notion than bis staying
in town In search of romance when be
might be here?"
Ralston bad been expatiating upon
the eccentricities of Sam Storrow.
"I don't know," she said. "We may
find our romance In the most unexpeet-
1 ed places."
ligenioMage;:
"I rather imagine that Storrow some
how Is not without some definite Idea
of where to find his romance."
She began to think. If that were so,
why should be not find it near her?
Her vanity was piqued, and Ralston,
being a good tactician, tried to follow
up bis advantage.
."Of course. Miss Marbury, I am not
in Bam Storrow's confidence."
But It takes a very wise man to bead
off the sudden turns of a feminine
train of thought, and bis words bad
Just the opposite effect to that be bad
Intended.
She said impulsively: "No; if you bad
bit confidence, you would probably tell
melhore."
The next moment she regretted ber
Impulsiveness, for it was no part of ber
policy openly to antagonize blm nntil
the bad more fully made op ber mind
as to which of these men
Well, the thing was to repair ber mis
take. "You take me too seriously. Mr. Ral
ston. You know, women must not bo
interpreted too literally." -
Ralston was fa from being Inclined
to take the sex too seriously, but it
was as well that women, for their own
peace of mind, should think otherwise.
He took his cue from her and answer
ed, with another laugh:
"It would upset any one's seriousness
to think of Sam Storrow Installed over
on the east side In a tenement and go
ing to Tompkins square on band nights
k search of the romance of the slums."
"Is that really true?"
"Yes; he has been seen there."
"By whom?" The words escaped her
before she could obey an Intuition to
keep them batk. .
"You would not have me betray con
fidences?" he rejoined.
She began to think she had been un
just to him, and when be came and
stood close to ber she did not push ber
chair away, nor when he picked up her
fan from the next chair, where she had
thrown it, did she make any sign ot
disapproval, ant so it was natural that
he should presently occupy the chair
the fan had vacated.
"After all," he reflected, "you can
bring any of these women round if you
only go the right way about It."
And, as for her, she had veered back
to the old point of view that as be
tween the two men one had shown his
devotion by his presence, whereas the
other had found a superior attraction
elsewhere.
"If I thought you could betray any
confidence, Mr. Ralston," she said now
In belated answer to his last query, "I
should not want ever to see you again."
He knew what she meant well
enough; for, like herself, he .was think
ing, of how very near to victory he had
been not longer ago than last night on
this same veranda.
Somehow it seemed to have grown
darker. The song of the pines swelled
Into a stronger chorus, and there was
a deeper, more sullen, note In the dis
tant booming of the surf.
They were standing together now on
the edge of the veranda, and he bad
taken her hand without any protest on
her part. He had drawn her gently
and gradually around, so that she was
half facing him now, and his other
arm, which embraced the post of the
piazza at her left, was ready to encir
cle her nock the moment his Instinct
should tell him it was safe to make the
attempt
"Miss Madge," he whispered Into her
very ear, "say that you believe me
worthy of all your confidence."
It was the last ditch, and there was
plainly a struggle going on within her,
for in spite of the cool Maine night her
blood coursed so fast that It was a race
between ber heart and pulse beats.
His purely animal Instinct warned
him that she was winning a victory
this time over herself and over him,
and as he tightened his bold upon ber
band and let his hand drop from the
piazza post across her shoulder she
gave a sort of gasp, wrenched herself
free from him and darted Into the
house through the open French win
dow. .
The band was playing In Tompkins
square to tbe motley east side audi
ence who had poured out from the
reeking rooms of torrid tenements as
well aa from homes of comparative
comfort Decent poverty, squalid need,
relative wealth, rubbed shoulders here
upon a ground of common equality.
But in a remote comer of tbe square
the electric light played with a rather
weird effect upon the strangely deter
mined face of a woman a refined look
ing, blgb bred woman, clearly not In
touch with ber surroundings. Beside
her sat Sam Storrow, bis eyes upon tbe
ground. But bis companion was keen
ly alert, and presently, when she saw
another woman approaching, she wait
ed until she noticed Storrow give a
surprised start of recognition, and then
she arose and spoke to the newcomer.
"Miss Marbury," she said, "when 1
sent you that anonymous letter to Bar
Harbor I believed I could reach your
heart, although I bad never seen you.
I brought you here to open your eyes.
A week ago Mr. Ralph Ralston, walk
ing with me across the square, pointed
out Mr. Storrow, whom I did not know.
'Storrow,' laid be In his usual flippant
way and as If it were the best joke In
the world, 'Is slumming for romance
this summer In town. Get acquainted
with him and show him tbe tender ro
mance of the slums.' I am one of a
university settlement party living
among the east side tenements, and I
got acquainted with Mr. Storrow and
with his story from bis own lips. '
. "MIsb Marbury, to Ralph Ralston's
propensity for tickle flirtation I owe
my romance and Its loss. Now It Is my
turn, and my resolve to spoil Ralph
Ralston's romance Is no stronger than
my resolve that you shall benefit by
my experience. Miss Marbury, I am
not a man hater, but I still trust I
shall never be less than a woman, and
my revenge upon Ralston will be
sweeter If 1 know that you have found
your romance In one who Is worthy of
you."
She glanced at Storrow, who sat
there dumfounded, while the Incandes
cent globe, glowing with a fitful radi
ance, Illumined tbe flush of triumph on
one woman's face, on the other's the
first dawning of the truth. Chicago

are interes'ed will assist in making
this exhibit such as it can be
made, that we cannot fail of putting

to advance that will tend to add to the
BiicceFS of this exhibit. It is necessary
to have specimens or exhibits of all kinds
of vegetables, grain, grasses, hop,fruits,
berries, wools, mohair, teasels, butter,
cheese, wood, flour, meal, paper, pulp,
woolen goods, yarns, fancy work of all
kinds, and in fact anything and every
thing that is grown, raised, made,
gathered or manufactured in Clackamas
county. Prepare these specimens pr ex
hibits and either bring cr send them to
Oregon City in care of Judge Ryan,
chairman of this committee, or if more
convenient give them in charge of any
member of Ill's committee, who will be
pleased to look after them. Willi each
