THE WILD GEESE.
By the thousands they are fly
ing. In the night I hear them cry
ing. In a wild triangle dying,
Calling, calling to their
mates;;
All the wild geese southward go- !
Ing,
Where the Jocund winds ar- '
blowing, ;
Happy masters of their fates! !
But who called them? Who was
bringing
To the Far North thoughts of
winging?
To the silence sounds of singing
Did the scent of roses clinging
To some mighty censer swing
ing. Purple-flaming, Incense fling
ing. Woo them to resistless winging
Mad, Indeed, from sea to
sand?
Did they willing go, or reckon
All the weary miles of bracken
Did the white magnolia beckon
With Its softly sensuous
gleams?
Lustily they dare to follow
Throat of bluebird, flight of
swallow.
Steering straight past hill and
hollow,
To a foolish land of dreams.
By the thousands they are fly
ing. '
:

;
i
In the night I hear them cry-
Ins.
On my restless pillow lying,
Calling, calling .to their
mates;
All the wild geese southward go-
ing
Where the Jocund winds
are blowing,
Where the softest seas are flow-
ing,
Happy masters of their fates.

TOLSTOI.
When Tolstoi died at Astopova Sun
day the Russian peasants lost their
greatest friend and the world a re
markable man. Born of the nobility
and educated to be one of the upper
circle in the czar's domain. Tolstot
could not tolerate such a life. He sar
that the footing upon which the no
bility stood was but a crust and be
neath, it the Russian people strug
gled In misery and dispalr.. He for
a time partook of the court life in
8t- Petersburg. He soon saw the In
justice and the wrong that was foster
ed nnder the rule of that despotic gov
ernment.
For many years Tolstoi devoted
himself to an effort to better the life
of his people. At heart he waa a
peasant. He suffered with them in
their sorrows and their poverty. He
cried out with them against the
cruelty .nd wrong Inflicted upon
them. And he was heard. When his
publications were suppressed in Rus
sia he sent them abroad. His books
were published in England and in this
country and everywhere they aroused
Indignation over the conditions exist
ing In Russia. His words found their
way back to that dark empire and
they have served to relieve the gloom.
The powers that be in Russia have
listened to Tolstot. They have not
done so openly for they denounced
him and at times were upon the point
of sending him into exile. But they
- dared not do It. They knew his place
In the hearts of the peasantry and the
authorities feared to touch him.
They feared that If they made a mar
tyr out of the old count they would
tart a conflagration that would
' brra their structure down.
Tolstoi cannot be properly Judged
"by the standards of this country. To
- the average man he was an eccentric
Individual and half crary. But his
books show a most remarkable mind.
They show Tolstoi to have had a
wonderful Insight Into human nature
the noblest of impulses and the pow
er to express his thoughts with ter
itfle force. He will go down Into
History as a treat character, and as
one who served his people with sin
Those who like to see development
work carried on In eastern Oregon
rejoice at the completion of the
Furnlsh-Coe dam. It marks the com
pletion of a valuable project and a
project that promises to be one of the
most successful private projects In

At evening when the lamp Is lit
Around the fire my parents sit
They sit at home and talk and sing
And do not play at anything.
Now, with my little gun, I crawl
All in the dark along the wall
And follow round the forest track
Away behind the sofa back.
There In the night, where none can
spy,
All In my hunter's camp I lie
And play at books that I have read
TID. it la time to go to bed.
These are the hills, these are the
woods.
These are my starry solitudes.
And there Is the river, by whose brink
The roaring Hons come to drink.
I see the others far away,
As If in flrelit camp they lay,
And I. like to an Indian scout.
Around their party prowled about.
So when my nurse comes In for me
Home I return across the sea
And go to bed with backward looks
At my dear land of story books.
Robert Louis Stevenson.
From an examination paper submit
ted In a local school we learn that an
Indian baby Is known as a "porpoise"
and an Indian's wife Is called a
saasli And yet some folks think
there's no fun in teaching schooL-

SISTERS OF MUSIC.
"Who sings?" said the spirit of music
And smiled on her peers.
"Sweet sorrow, sing thou." Sorrow
answered,
"I cannot for tears."
"Bright hope, give a tongue to the
poems
I read in thine eyes.
Hope answered, "My thoughts are all
clouded
And lost In the skies."
"Then, Joy, put thy mouth to the bu
gle. A n Ue for my sake!"
Calm creature, she sleeps In the sun
' shine
And will not awake.
But hush: A soft sound stealeth on
ward Like the flight of a dove.
Ah, I find that the song that is
sweetest
Conies ever from love!

ITGIIT OLD VERMONT. .
Battle Creek Enquirer: The En
quirer knows what kind of men com
pose the lower house of the Vermont
state legislature. They are snarly,
skinny old men wh look as though
they enn tell you right off sharp that
there isn't any Santa Claus but your
own pa. And they are going to tax
all the Christmas trees that come out
of Vermont, where most of the Christ
mas trees now come from.
Snarly, skinny old men who kn:iw
so much about Santa Claus and so
little about Christmas trees that they
would try to tax something that
wouldn't exist if It was taxed.
The Idea of a taxed Christmas tree
is as absurd as a Santa Claus who
collcets pay from little children. The
Vermont plan happens to be uncon
stitutional, but it would serve the
legislature right If it could go ahead
with its schemes and lose Its tax on
its Christmas trees.
RHEUMATISM
PURIFYING TEE BLOOD
THE ONLY FESHAKENT CUBE
No case of Rheumatism was ever
etired except by a thorough purifica
tion of the blood ; just as long as the
blood remains charged with ferment
ing uric acid poison, the painful dis
ease will continue. The pains and
aches of Rheumatism are simply su
perficial effects of the i:npurit;e3 in
the circulation, and sometimes may
be temporarily relieved by ths appli
cation of plasters, liniments, hot
cloths, etc. But the person who trifles
with this dangerous disease by de
pending on local treatment alone, is
certain to pay for the mistake with
constant suffering later on. S. S. S.
cures Rheumatism in the only way it
is possible to cure the disease. It
goes down into the blood, and re
moves the uric acid from the circula
tion, so that the nerves, bones, mus
cles and joints are lubricated and fed
with nourish
ing elements
instead of being
continually ir
ritated and in
flamed with the
sharp, uratlc
i tnpurity,
When S. S. S.
has cleansed
and purified the
blood, the pains and aches cease, all
inflammation disappears, stiffened
muscles are made pliant, and every
troublesome symptom of Rheumatism
is permanently corrected. Book on
Rheumatism and any medical advice
free to all who write.
