St. Peter stood guard at the golden gate, With a solemn mein and air sedate, When up to the top of the golden stair A man and a woman ascended there Applied for admission. They came and stood Before St. Teter go great and good, In hopes the city of Peace to win, And asked St. Peter to let them in. The woman was tall and lank' and thin, With a scraggy bcardlct on her chin; The man was short and thick and stout His stomach was built so it rounded out, His face was pleasant, and the while He wore a kindly and genial smile. The choirs in the distance the echoes woke And the man kept still while the wo man spoke. "O thou that guardest the gate," said she ''We two come hither beseeching thee To let us enter the heavenly land, And play our harps with the angol band. Of me, St. Peter, there is no doubt, There's nothing iu heaven to bar me out. I've been to the meeting three times a week And almost always I'd rise and speak.

I've showed them what they'd have to QO If they'd paas in with the chosen few. I've marked their path of duty clear, Told them the plan of their whole career. I've talked and talked to 'em loud and long, For my lungs are good and by voice is strong. So good Peter, you'll clearly see The gate of heaven is open to me But my old man, I regret to say, Hasn't walked in exactly the narrow way, He smokes and ho swears, and grave faults he's got And I don't know whether he'll pass or not. "He never would pray with an earnest vim. Or go to revival or join in hymn; So I had to leave him to sorrow there, While I with the chosen united in prayer. He ate what the pantry chanced to afford. While I in my purity snug to the Lord; And if cucumbers were all he got, It's a chance if he merited them or not. But oh, St. Peter, I love him so! To the ploasures of heaven please let him go. I've done enough a saint I've been; Won't that atone f Can't you let him in t Bv mv crim eospcl I know 'tis so That the unropentant must fry below. But wn't there aome way you can see That he may enter who's dear to me! . ? i i 1 . ' "It's a narrow gospel by which I pray, But the chosen expect to find some way Of coaxing, or fooling, or bribing you, So that their relations can amblo through. And bbv. St. Peter, it seems to me This gate isn't kept as it ought to bo; Kou ougnt to siana uy tnui opening there And never sit down in tho easy chair. "And any, St. Peter, my eyes are dimmed But I don't like the way your whis kers are trimmed. They're cut too wide and outward toss; They Id look better narrow and straight across. Well, wo must be going our crowns to win So open, St. Peter, and we'll pans in." St. Peter sat and stroked his staff, Rut anite of his office he had to laugh, Then said, wilh a fiery gleam in his eye, ''Whose, tending this gateway, you or II" And then he arose in his stature tall, And pressed a button upon the wall, And said to the imp who answered the bell, "Escort this lady around to hell." Tho man stood still as a piece of stone; Stood sadly, gloomily, tnere auuiic. A liJnnr, s,t!pfl iflcR. lift had That his wife was good and he was bad, Ho thought 11 tno woman wciii num. ne would ccrtainliy have to go- That if she went to tne regions una, There wasn't a ghost of a chance for him.

" And so the scriptures shall come to pass 'The last shall be first and the first shall be last." Famous German Coffee House Threatened There's A Reason Amsterdam, Sept. 9. Although it in not admitted in Germany, the famous old German coffee houses, the popular resort of the masses, is abont to go out of business until after the war. There's a reason. Germany is about out of coffee. For the last two years the Germans have used reserve supplies of coffee stored in Hamburg and Bremen. Ant werp's supply augmented this when it fell to the Germans in 1914. There since has been a little from Holland and Scandinavia. Toda', however, the British have so effectively stopped shipments to ports reshipping to Germany that none is available tnereirom. Germany is brew ing the last of her precious berries. Before the war Germany imported about 55 million dollars worth of cof fee a year, mostly from Brazil and Guatemala. THE MERCHANT PRINCE. Thore was an old geezer and he had a lot of sense; Ho started up a business on a dollar eighty cents. The dollar for stock and the eighty for an ad Brought him three lovely dollars in a day, by gad! Well, he bought more goods and a little more space, And he played that system with a smile on his face. The customers flocked to his two-by-four And soon he bad to hustle for a regu lar store. Up on the square where the people pass, He gobbled up a corner that was all plate glass. He fixed up the windows with the best that he had, And he told them all about it in n half page ad. He soon had 'cm coming and he never quit, And he wouldn't cut down on his ads one bit. Well, he's kept things humping in the town ever since, And everybody calls him the .Merchant Prince. Ford Times. South Americans Afraid of North American Trusts Buenos Aires, Sept. 9. South Ameri cans are deeply interested in the sug gestion, referred to in dispatches from Washington and New York, that the Sherman law ought not to be enforced against North American business hous es seeking trade on the southern conti nent. South America is exceedingly fear ful of trusts and especially of North American trusts. The people base their ideas on translations they have read from newspapers in tne Limed States. They believe, literally, the very strong est things they have read concerning the trust evil. It is doubtful if the still uninvaded corner of Belgium would regard a German incursion with any more pleasurable anticipations than South Americans feel at the hint that the North American trusts may get a grip on them. This apprehension of t runts, in fact is a considerable obstacle in the way of American trade's progress here. Consequently this latest suggestion has not been well received. South .American business men who think closer pan-American trade rcla tions would be a good thing express the opinion that the field is so wide open, while the war lasts, that trust methods are unnecessary at present, Their view is that North American firms would do better to gain a foot hold by individual effort, before the United States Is Planning a Great New IndustryFlax The high prices of linen and of the flax fibre from which linens are made has centered attention on the necessity of establishing a real linen industry in this country, the greatest consumer of linen in the world. There seem to be two big problems which must be solved before success is assured. One is to find some artificial method of prepar ing the flax straw for the spinner, thus relieving the flax grower of this task, and the other is to convince the Ameri can public that American-made linen is as good as any other. There are a um ber of minor problems, and they are an discussed jn a report by W. A. Graham Clark just published by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic commerce, De partment of Commerce. The only country in which the pro duction of flax fibre has increased con sistently in recent years is Russia, the report states. In the British Isles and in France the production has decreased in spite of all efforts to keep the ni- dustry growing and in Austro-Hungary, Belgium, and the Netherlands the indus try has not been able to bold its own. The American production has never been of importance. Thanks to liberal government aid and to cheap labor the Russians had gradually been getting a monopoly of the business up to the time the war broke out. In the United States flax has been raised almost entirely for the Beed, which is used to make the Well-known linseed oil so necessary for the produc tion of good paints and varnishes. Of some 3,000,000 acres of flax raised in this country in 1915, the Department of Agriculture estimates that only 2,000 acres were devoted to flax for fibre. The bulk of the straw from the seed bearing plants is burned and used for fertilizer. It should be borue in mind, however, that flax growing for seed and flax growing for fibre are separate and distinct industries. Some flax is grown for both seed and fibre, but a decision must be made as to which is to be the more important product, just as the sheep raiser must decide whether mutton or wool is to be the primary con sideration. In Europe the farmer not only raises the flax, but prepares the fibre for the spiuner. This preparation requires sev eral processes, one of which, known as "retting" requires considerable cheap labor and much time and is in addition a most disagreeable process for the workmen. The problem in this country is to find some chemical process of ret ting that can be carried out at a fact ory and thus allow the farmer to con fine his attention to the agricultural end of the industry. This is the only condition on which the American far mer will take to growing flax for the fibre, Mr. Clark thinks. Some pro gress is already being made in chemi cal retting and nt least two concerns are now buying flax stalks from the growers for furthcT treatment. Chemi cal processes have been tried before without much success, but one of the new concerns is now selling chemically retted -fibre to Europe and the other is making coarse linens for use in cloth ing and for curtains. Even if a rood all-American liuen is produced in this country, however, there still remains the great problem of find ing a market for it. That means that time and effort will be required to per suade the consumer to buy the domestic product instead of the imported. Many people invariably choose the imported article when it is displayed alongside of domestic products, almost regardless of quality. The president of a mill now making dyed and bleached dress linens from American flax has found that, small as his product, there is dif ficulty in getting the jobbers and lie partment stores to handle it. The ten dency is to assume that, even though it is apparently of excellent quality, it cannot equal the old established linens from abroad. There will never be a bet ter time than the present, to popularize the domestic product, for the imported article is scarce and high priced. In normal times onr imports of linen goods vary from 25 to 35 million dol lars and the demand had been steadily increasing up to the time of the war. ' The Bureau's report is entitled "De velopment of an American Linen In dustry," Special Agents series No. 122, and may be obtatined for the nominal price of five cents from the superin tendent of documents, Washington, D. C, or from the nearest district office of the Barean of Foreign and Domestic Commerce'. European struggle is over, resorting to combinations later if they are compel! ed to. By Mort.
