And henr the nngcls singing to the sleep

And, lo! throughout tho hours of day
those centln flowers nrolong
The music of tho angels In that tender

"Sleep, oh, sleep!

Ho that gunrdcth his flock the best

The Three Kings of Coloa no.
From out Cologne there came three kings
To worship Jesus Christ, their King.
To Him they sought flno herbs they
-brought,
And many a beauteous golden thing;
They brought their gifts to Bethlehem
town.
And in that manger set them down.
Then spake the first king, nnd he said:
"O Child, mo3t heavenly, bright and
fair!
I brlntr this crown to H-rthlehem town
For Thee, and only Thee, to wear;
3n give n heavenly crown to mo
When I shall como at last to Theo!"
The second, then. "I bring Thee here
This royal robe, O Child!" he cried;
"Of Blik 't!s rpun, nnd such an one
There 13 not In tho world beside; ,
So In tho dny of doom reipilto
Mo with a heavenly robe of white."
The third king gavo h!s gift nnd nuoth:
"Spikenard nnd myrrh to Theo I bring,
And with these twnln would I most fain
Anoint tho body of my King;
Bo may their Incense sometimes rlso
To plead for mo In yondor skies!"
Thus spake tho thre? kings of Cologne,
ThPt gavo their gifts und went their
way;
And now kneel I In prayer hard by
Tho cradle of the Child today;
Nor crown, nor robe, nor spice I bring
As offering unto Christ, my King.
Yet have I brought a gift the Child
May not despise, however small;
For here I lay my heart tolay.
And It Is full of love to nil.
Take Thou the poor but loyal thing,
My only trlhnte, Christ, my Klngl

What though the radlent thoroughfare
Teems with a noisy throng?
What though men bnndy everywhere
The rlba'd jest and song?
Over the din of oaths and crlos .
HrOodrth n wondrous cnlm.
And mid thot solemn stillness rise
Tho bells of Notre Dame.
"Heed not, dear Lord," thry seem to say,
"Thy weak nnd erring child;
And thou, O gentle Mother, pray
That God bo reconciled:
And on mankind, O Christ, our King,
Pour out Thy gracious balm"
TIs thus they plifad and thus they sing,
Those bells of Notre Dame. 1
And so, tnethinks, God, bending down
To ken the things of earth,
Heeds not the mockery of tho town
Or cries of rlbntd mirth; .
For ever soundeth In His ears
A pentcntlal psalm
'TIs thy angello voice He hears, . .
O bells of Notre Dame. .
Plead on, O bells, that thy sweet volco
May still forever be '
An Intercession to rejoice '

And that thy tuneful grace may fall
Like dew, a quickening balm, ' . ,

All this Is according to- the "unof

which Is practically official. - Besides
these representatives there will be four
delegates tfrom Territories, the class
steadily dimtnb.'h'ir.r; in numbers as the
Territories become states, and before
Hie com'ing congress expires Utah's del
egate will become a representative with
the r!ght to vote as well as to speak,
which is tho chief advantage of tho

Old Members Dropped Out.
The enormous Republican majority
swept away some old members of tha
house and others were left at -hom
by (failing to get renomlnations, w.ille
some retired voluntarily, w'hose faces
had become so familiar that It win
seem et-range not to see them there.
Running down the alphabetical list or
tho la3t house you see Richard P.
Bland, of Missouri, the 'honest leader
of the llverites; W. C. P. Breckin
ridge, of Kentucky; William J. Bryan,
of ;Nc'bras-ka; William D. Bynum, of
Indlann, and W. Hourke Cockran, of
Now York; IMIehael D. Harter, of

William IM. Springer, of Illi

Warner, of New York, and last, but
not least, William L. Wilson, of West
Virginia, make up a list which might
be lengthened of well known Dem
oerats alone who will be missing, and
many of them will bo much missed
when the clerk calls, the roll on the
second of December.
Of course come of the old Republicans
will r.ot return, and Jerry Simpson, the
most prominent of the Populists, will
be conspicuous by h is absence. But the
Democratic side, dwindled as It will be
to half Its former size, will excite the
most sympathy.
Hood's Grant Task.
Tho great Republican majority, which
will overflow the 'Republican side of the
house and sweep the Democrats Into
half of their side, will be difficult to
manage at the (best, and- Speaker Reed
w.u necu nil the assistance that he can
bring to the support of his own strer.trth
and skill. For, of course, .Mr. Heed Is to
be the speaker. There never waa any
real question about that. Mr. Reed Is
si obviously tho man for the plaoe t'hat
ne win -oe nominated In the Republi
can caucus by acclamation. Ho Is the
leader or tne party In the house of rep
resentatives as ao other man has been
in recent years, for he has not a real
rival, so t'hat his k-adershln mnv ho
said to be practically undisputed.
The difference between hla situation
on the eve of this coming congress, al
ready as good as speaker, coming to
vvupiiingion wiin ine lists or tho com-
iR'liitxxia in his pocket, and his sitiinHn-n
six years ago, when at this time he was
engngod In an active struggle with half
a dozen othen.cnndidates for tho nomi
nation, one of whom (Mr. McKlnlcy)
deemed to those who did not know that
Mr.tthew Stanley Quay and Mr.Thonms
(.T. Piatt wore supporting .Mr. Reed to-be
more likely to be elected than the man
from Maine marks the tremendous
cnange tvhlch ho made in his own poll-
iieui iorrunes Dy ms masterful admin
istration cf his party and tho house
wniie ne was speaker. ,
TI10 new man from Maine oecunten
in me nouse a -far stronger position
than tho old man from Maine did, for
Mr. Bin Ine was never without nblo and
bitter rivals In his own party In the
house. Mr. Reed probably lias some
personal enemies among the old Re
publican members who are to be In tho
next houae, nnd undoubtedly the frlcndB
ot narnsiin, aicmniey, Allison and
other candidates for tho Republican
nomination will do what they can to
embarrass him thla winter In hl3 deli
cate and dangerous position ns apenker
of tho house, and presidential candi
date. Hut Mr. Reed is Just the man for
such a trial as he has gone through, and
If any one can come out of It unscathed
ho can. In many respects he la the
greatest parliamentary leader and man
ager In our history and hna still re
sources which aro yet to be developed,
In addition 'to the remarkable powers
he has already exhibited. He thor
oughly appreciates his position and Its
dangers, but, having been speaker once
nnd having been 18 years In congress,
ho knows all that mere Is to bo known
about how to meet hla difficulties.
K.-Spcnker Crisp.
Ex-Speaker Crisp will be renominated
by acclamation by the Democratic cau
cus for speaker. He, like Mr. Reed, has
practically no rival In his party on the
floor, and ho will be Its leader while It
la In the minority Just as Mr. Reed has
been leader of the Republicans during
their political exile. Mr. Crisp (or
Judge Crisp, aa most pcopio ncro and
at his home call him, strangely prefer
ring to give him the title which he wore
on the Georgia Circuit court rather than
that which he held In tho chair of tne
United States House of Representa
tlvea), has advanced In his party very
much as Mr. Reed did among the Re
publicans. Four years ago nt this time
It seemed ns likely that Mr. Mills, of
Texas, would bo elected speaker as Mr.
Crisp, of Georgia, and there were sev
eral other candidates for tho place; but
In the Democratic caucus two years ago
Mr. CrisD was renominated by accla
mation and he would be elected speaker
again if tho Democrats had tho major
ity in the next house.
It will oe as interesting 10 oiiserve
ex-Speaker Crisp under the adminis
tration of Speaker Reed a3 It was to ob
serve tho administration of Speaker
Crisp. Neither really likes tho other,
although at times they have seemed
to be friendly, and there will bo omo
pretty fencing between them when
Crisp, as the' loader of the opposition,
attempts to Interfere with tho speak
er's progresa.
The fact that the sneaker Is a presi
dential candidate will make the coming
session of tho house much more lnter
estlnar tn every way than it would
otherwise be, for It will give algnflcanco
to everything that la said or none ot
any Importance on tho floor. The Re
publican policy Is plainly 'Indicated,"
as the physicians say, to be one of mas
terly inactive, but It win tie difficult to
carry this out: therefore the predic
tions that the session will be short, that
tho Republicans will pass the appro
priation bills and possibly some rev
enue-raising measures, declare for too
annexation of Hawaii and the emanci
pation of Cuba and then go home, are
not likely to be fulfilled.
Besldea the universally Republican
majority la the house there, to the sen
Congres
ate to reckon with, with its nicely bal
anced parties, none having a majority,
although the Republicans have a plu
rality. The senate cannot bo iicnt
homo, even by Speaker Reed, so that
the first session of this congress, like
the first session of most congresses, will
probably be a long one. Tho senate will
bo less Interesting than tho house, for
Mr. Allison, tho foremost candidate,
will not be like Mr. Reed In control,
but, on tho contrary, he will probably
keep as quiet as possible unless he sees
an opportunity to advance his cause by
some bold stroke.
Butler, of South Carolina; Dolph, of
Oregon; HIgglns, of Delaware; Man

New Jersey; Ransom, of North Caro

If you were to call at 27 Front avenue

no small extent due to tho escape Bhe has
had. Her own words can bettor de

derstand her present happy condition
when they realize what she hns gone
through. She says: "About five
months ago I had an attack of sickness
which lnnted for a week nnd since thnt
time I have been subject nt Intervals
to similar attacks, some of which were
longer in duration. It Is hard for me to
describe how I suffered. Tho pain
would commence In my head, after
which It would seem to pass dawn my
body and settle In my back, my sides
ached, my back ached, ond I had a feel
ing of great distress in the bowels. The
Increased pain which seemed to come
from lying down, would bo almost un
bearable, my face and stomach would
bloat up and I could hardly stand on
my feet, dizziness made It almost Im
possible; this feeling was always with
me even after tho violence of the attack
passed over. Tho last attack I had was
the worst, and was ro bad I would not
have been able to tell this story but for
Doan's Kidney Pills. As soon as I com
menced their use I found Immediate re

left mo and the dlzzlnesa went with it;
the bloating In my face nnd body dis
appeared and all distress In my bowels
was gone. I have great faith In Doan's
