Committee sent out telegrams to county
chairmen for the vole on the

gix out of the eighty-eight coun-
ties. The returns show that in these
counties the balance of the ticket
without much variance in the figares
bas received 11.650 votes more than
Foraker, or rather the bead of the

be exactly the same as when the red

Work and Song.
In a alose little kitchen she worked all day,
While the birds sang shrill on the budding
trees,
And the bright earth ealled her to come away
And follow the track of the laughing breeze,
She could not answer the bright earth's ealls,
With lowly duties her days were filled
And her life was bounded Dy kitchen walls,
Yet she sang with a joy that would not be
stilled.
Through May's fresh splendors and tender
June,
Through fierce July with its cruel heat,
She worked on still, while the simple tune
Welled up from her heart unchaoged and
sweet,
A man passed by to his daily toll,
And sick of his work and his life was he,
With eyes bent down to the cheerless soil
As though there was never a sky Lo see,
He heard the notes with a vacant ear.—
What did he care for a servant's song?
Yet day by day rose the cadence clear
Till he caught its joy as he passed along.
And his heart grew lighter about his work,
And he gained fresh strength for the dally
fight,
And a softenad smile in his eyes would lurk
When he heard her song coming home at
night.
And was that all? O Sister mine!
1s it not enough if we help one soul?
Must the help be measured by rule and line?
Need we fret that we cannot know the whole
The kitchen lass may have never known
Of the help that came from her dally song,
But the foy of singing is still her own
And shes works to music the whole day long.

“THE PLEASANTEST ROOM
IN THE HOUSE.”
BY EDITH ELDRIDGE,
We had been married a month, and
were just beginning to feel at home in
our cosy parsonage, of which the peo-
ple were so proud.
John and I walked through the rooms
with great satisfaction, and pronounced
it all “very nice, indeed,” from the
real chambers upstairs to the conveni-
ent little kitchen. It was comfortable,
homelike, and I flattered myself there
was even an air of elegance about the
parlor; and the dining-room

the assistance of one of the neighbor's

most of the books placed in order by
the time John came home from a fun-
eral, tired and hungry, to find me, with
dishevelled hair, jammed fingers, no
dinner, but such a pleasant surprise.
He looked aghast at me and then at
the room.
“You didn't complain, John, but I
saw you felt the dullness of your
study,” I said, excitedly, “and see how
nicely I have arranged your books!”
“The ‘Homiletic’ said: ‘Arrange

and the olives look quite msthetic, next

“And this is Friday, too,” he mutter-
ed. “But it is so very nice,” he said,
heroically, as he caught my disappoi nt-
ed look.
“Well, life went on. Our dinners
began to taste good again in our little
room, and John really seemed to enjoy
his new quarters, and I felt repaid,
when, one day, I became interested in
an article in a domestic journal that I
had recently taken, on *“The Grinding
of the Poor and Injustice to Our Ser-
vants.”
I was deeply affected, as it plotured
’
the temptations of working-girls, the;
influences of their surroundings on their |
characters, and the fearful responsibili- |
ties of mistresses. It wound up with—
“The kitchen should be the plessantest |

kitchen certainly was not “the pleasant. i
