WHAT POETESS A. M. CONNER HEARD A LUMBER PILE SAY

Today as I passed by a lumber pile, I heard a voice say "Wait a while; I'm sorry to internrpt your walk, But only at times do I wish to talk."

Amazed was I that with so much ease, Boards could speak-that had once been treesSo pausing there, with no thought of slumber, I heard these words from a pile of lumber: "I came from a forest great and free, I bring you aromas of flower and tree, And I wait to be fashioned, firm and true, Into a Home that may shelter you. Let the swift years come and hurry by, If only again I may front the sky, Useful, protective, and fair to behold, Kissed by the sunlight as of old.

I am more pliable than steel, FuIl many beauties do I reveal, In polished mantel, in columns tall, fn graceful archway and panelled wall. I am more durable than stone, And far and wide is my record known, For Homes of romance and renown, For treasured landmarks in every town That have bravely the storms of time withstood, Because they are builded of sturdy wood. For stately dwelling or bungalow, I'm the best material that you know. f resist the storms when wild winds hum; I do not fall when the earthquakes come. So build your dear new Flome of me, And dream by your fireside of flower and tree."

Now this is no dream, and I did not slumber, I heard that talk from a pile of lumber.

Golf

The cynic says: "Golf is a game that needlessly prolongs the life of a lot of very useless old men."

An Oil Well

"An oil weU," says another cynic who evidently got nipped a few times, "is a hole in the ground owned by a d-n liar."

TWO OF THEM?

The motor purred softly along the deserted country road. The moon was bright. It was spring. But he kept his hands firmly on the drive wheel, and eyes to the front. Suddenly the engine wheezed, coughed, slowed down, stopped.

"The engine's dead," remarked the driver.

"'Well, it has plenty of company in this crowd," remarked the young lady.

Immortality

Immortality is a word that Hope, through all the ages, has been whispering to Love. The miracle of thought we cannot understand. The mystery of life and death, we cannot comprehend. This chaos called world, has never been explained. The golden bridge of life from gloom emerges, and on shadow rests. Beyond this we do not know. Fate is speechless, destiny is dumb, and the secret of the future has never yet been told. We love-we wait-we hope. The more we love, the more we fear. Upon the tenderest heart the deepest shadows fall. AU paths, whether filled with thorns or fowers, end here. Here success and failure are the same. The rag of wretchedness and the purple robe of pbwer all difference and distinction lose in this democracy of death. Character survives. Goodness lives. Love is immortal.-Col. Ingersoll.
