Poetry Worth Reading.
On Setting Sail.
The anchor's up. she swings around,
The sailors sing before the mast,
Vl'cn the twn a calm profound
And calm within the heavens vast;
Wc leave behind the crowded shores
And all the things we love and
know,
As toward the wider ocean's roars
The ship with all her freight doth
KO.
Alone against the starboard rail
I watch a while the sea and sky,
The winking harbor lights that fall
And as the distance grentens, die;
And then my fancy lightly wakes.
Turns back from sky and shore
and. sea,
And. like a voice, the silence breaka
With this clear question suddenly:
"If what we leave upon the shore
Were folly, envy and conceit.
If this good vessel speeding bore
But those forsaking things unmeet
Like meaner thought and grosser
aim
And lust that leaves the heart
a wreck
And littleness and senseless blame
Would you be standing on the
deck?"
Ah, no! I fear that I would gaze
With many others from the land
And neither envy have nor praise
Kor those who sought a stranger
strand;
Smile idly at their useless trip
And dub them Imbeciles and clods,
And then for meet companionship
Go back unto my little gods!

The Galley Slave.
I welcome thee, O sleep.
Not that thy power doth keep
Me from the memory and the toil of
day
For be it day or night.
Or sleep or waking sight,
I labor at the oar the selfsame way.
But in the night what strength,
Whatstrokeof wondrous length!
With what asplendld and victorious
sweep
I drive the vessel on
Toward the waiting dawn
Through huge and hollow, roaring
seas of sleep!
There comes no weariness
To make me slacken stress,
No master's voice is beating in mine
ears;
I feel no chain or thong.
Strong as a god Is strong.
I play with labor, deaf to hopes and
fears!
Pallid across my face
Dothcomethe dawn's first trace;
What weariness, what grief about to
break!
Ah, how I hate the sun.
And my comrades every one,
God who's asleep and hell fore'er
awake!
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
To Him That Hath.
Measure me not by what I may
achieve,
Nor mark my progress by the
height I gain;
How can you know with what sore
hurt and pain
I strive for that which others but re
ceive? How can you know how I am
weighted down.
What dead men's sins press heavy
on my soul?
Or how I can but creep toward my
goal,
While others pass me, reaching .for
their crown?
By this, I pray you, mark my on
ward way
The daily strife with bonds that
hold me fast?
Like shadowy fingers, reaching
from the past,
Holding a token which I must obey;
Pity the fettered feet that but
mark time,
While others march, and gain the
hills sublime.
Ninette M. Lowater.
The Lima's Auto.
The strangest news that ever yet
Came out of faraway Tibet;
'Mid Himalayan snow and Ice
The auto bears the strange device,
"Excelsior!"
In every zone and all the lands,
O'er polar ice and burning sands,
The chugging motor makes Its
way
It's honking in Tibet to-day,
"Excelsior!"
The Tashl Lama at the wheel
Rare Joys of motoring will fell;
And, "Though I'm used to living
high.
I'm going up," we hear him cry,
"Excelsior!"
All hall, this modern "Wheel cf
Life!"
Blow loud the drum, and beat the
nre!
Advance, ye cohorts higher yett
Teli fifteen thousand feet Tibet, .
"Excelsior!"

John Edward had a train of cars
Across the parlor steaming;
They blew the whistle, screeched and

Disaster never dreaming.
John Edward loosed the throttle

To fear and fright a stranger,
Nor saw wlihln his parent's eye
The signal red of danger.

There came a wreck'appalllng
And all the neighbors heard

Upon his person falling.
