Hi name waGod-Be-GlorllIe(l his Bur-I
name it wag Jones.
ue put a mortgage on the farm and theN
in conscious pride.
"In twenty years I'll pay it up" said
God-Be-Glorlfled.
The mortgage had a hungry maw that
swallowed corn and wheat
He toiled with patience night and day)
ddayi
t. and
to let the monster eat:
He slowly worked himself to death
on the calm hillside
They laid beyond the monster's reacld
good God-Be-Gloritied.
And the farm with its inextnbntnces
of mortgage stumps and stones
It fell to young Melchizedek Paul Adon-
ram Jones;
.Melchizedek was a likely youth a holy
gndly mail.
And he vowed to raise that mortgage
like a noble Puritan.
And he went forth every morning to the
rugged mountain ide

they dug his grave one day!
Win tirnl born son Kliphalet had iu
time to weep ami urood. i
For th monster by his doorstep giouiedj
time to weeji and brood.
forever for hio lood.
He fed him ou his garden tntck. .z
ttiilled his ribs with hay.
And he fed him eggs and butter but he
would not go away;
And hhphalet he stturgeretl with tne
burden and thetiied.

Then from John to Kleazur. but the
mortgage still lived on.
Then it Tell to Ralph and I'eter KH Ab-
salom and 1'aul;
lown through all the generations but
the mortgage killed them all!
About a .eore of years ago the farm came
(Ioimi to Jim
And Jim called in the mortgagee and
gave the farm to him.
There's no human heart so empty that
it has no ray of hope
So Jim gave up the ancient farm and
went to making soap.
He grew a tifty-millionr.ire. a bloated
pampered nature:
He owned ten railroads twenty mines
and the whole state legislature;
And thousands did his grull commands
and lived upon his bounty;
And became home bought back the farm
and the entire county.

The Popular Preacher.
He teils in the pulpit
How pure and undetiled
Must be the true disciple
Kven as a little child;
That unto eaithly treasure
No Christian may aspire.
Choosing his text. The laborer
I- worthy of his hire."
He is a popular preacher.
Most eloquent and u ie.
Well paid to lead his people
In safety to the kies;
He wears a costly vesture.
Lives in a tately palace
And drinks his daily lacrym
From out a golden chalice.
The laborer is worthy."
The words are Holy Writ:
The preacher does his Master's work
And much he loveth it;
lint there's one text of Scripture
Might cause him some misgiving;
His Master had not where to lay
His head while He was living.
I.anli Hath its Woe.
FlII maiiT a jest is spoken
To hide tin aching heart:
And lips oft part in laughter
Lest the hot tears Bhould start.
For oh: the springs of feeling.
.May oft hues desper flow
Than we. in our careless juding.
Can ever ever know.
Judge not. judge not. my brother:
Dut know that ever.v heart
Hath ouie close-fastened chamber.
Where sorrow sits apart;
And from her crystal fountain.
The tears unseen oft swell
With grief whose thrill ofcanguish.
No words can ever tell.
