r 01 THE- COURIER. PANTHEISM. God -eternity in motion time and space Anialltht mikn thiw entities, and full, Through every atom particle, with life Made manifest in Himself, and to Himself; And, as their comprehension, each, as kind, From smaller being up to the stature vast Of great Archangles, with the One, who rule Planets and sun, and the vast seeming wastes As yet all starless; wherefore, whate'er is Which is of Spirit of that Essence is; Unending as is He, though the Create Must suffer change, till elemental-base Of lower matter is so purged and fined That it is Spirit the long Aeon through; So to Himself returning, winning rest, And then resurgence, in the ceasless rounds. -IDYLA. F. Hopkinson Smith's Glowing Tribte to the Southern Woman. THE SEARCH FOR REST. A traveller searched through many weary years for rest, In vain he sought In every land beneath the shining blue-domed sky But found it not. At last came Death, in silence touched his tired brain, And brought release, Tread softly, for in yonder grassy bed, he found The place of peace. William Reed Dunroy. A Nosegay. 'Tip a fashion these dy3 to admire tho florid flowerp, tho Ebony' orchids and tbo like. A long procession bows before tho shrine f tbo shaggy chrysanthemum, and the rose no longer reigns, the sitngle street llower that caused tho war of the rcsEs in .pW England so many years ago, is now a tiionster red, jellow or pink cabbage, with its jnyriad of de cadent devotees. The tender violet and the buttercup ate well nigh onlydream?. and the forget-mc not U forgot. The old fashioned Howeis ate relegated to the back yard and arc coneor ts of ple bian vegetable?. Tho brilliant mary go!d hobnobs with the inevitable par sley, and tho four-o'clo;k mingles its leaves with the beet. Unco in a while you will find an oldTusbioaed garden, and its gardner will bo as old fashioned as the garden. She will be a tiny old lady with hair as white as .wool. She will wear a dress of gray with white it the neck and sleeves. Her eyes, faded, but kindly, will be as sweet as the forget-me-nots that brush her drss as she passes a'oug the garden path. It her feet is the modest mignonette, and the vblte and green candy tuft, as 6weet as its name. Paneies peep with monkey faces from under the fence, -and day lillies shine from among the green and glossy leaves. Round about is a hedge of 6weet peae, a veritable bit of torn rainbow, clinging to a background cf tendril and vine. And somewhere a featheiy cypress vine with its vivid stars will creep to hide unsightly poles or strings that have been put up as props l its upward wanderings. Along the fence there are rnaiygolds and holly hocks and bacheilor's buttons. Yes, and there ara flaunting poppie?, red flags in sunshine. And the little old lady chat ters never so quaintly of her pets, and will pluck you a nosegay,as sweet as the memory or those whom you have loved and lost, as 6weet as the kisses that ycu will never feel again on your lips and WILLIAM REED DUNROY. Uil lost my head last night. She It won't be a great fled for anybody. But that voice of here! It may be because of the as-ociationp of my own early life. I can still remem ber tbo broad arms and capacious lulla by rest of tho old black mammy who brought me through from babyhood to boyhood or it may bo because those and succeeding days iccu6tomed my ears to the cadenea of the liquid voices of the south, but certiin it is that today there is no touml that escapes human lips so grateful as tho soft tones of a southern woman. This sweet soul, with her velvet tread -and 'touch, had doubt less a sad history of her own a ohnt .jtci past nothing left but a few graves, tho n hereabouts of some perhaps unknown to her. Since those cruel das there had come privaE on and bitter poverty, and that dread bneliness which take3 possession of the helpless. And yet nothing had disturbed her exquisite patience or robbed her of the marvellous restfullness of manner and refinement which distinguishes the southern woman ot today. It this gentle lady had suf fered none of these, thing, I am all tho more glad for her sake. And yet, all the same, I think I have read her signs aright, the indications are always, so plain, and so many of her sisters' have trod the wine press, too, and etill do. Yet nothing has ever embittered the sweet ness of their natures or cramped their generous hospitality. What they had they cave gave cheerfully and gracious ly and so they do tod ay.

Leading authorities agiee that in the future movementot the Granger stocks the leader will continue to be Burling ton. It holds that place logically. It has in Nebras a 22.7J miles of road, and in Illinois, 1,330. These two states have the biggest crops of tho year. It has also a large mileage in Iowa which is also fairly well off in respect to crops, the ugh not up 1o Illinois and Nebraska, Tho earnings ot the Burlington, there fore, will be a very large crop this year 63 latge, and so much beyond what was estimated in the early part of the j ear, that it is reasonable to expect the most active trading in stock will be at figures above par. It may be added, also, that the earnings of the Rock Island are justifying the expectations of the direc tors. Toirti Topics- "Phwy do they call thim things dog carts, I dunno?"
