ery represents the natural juices of diges-
gion as they exist in a healthy stomach,

The June Arena.
“Rise, Mighty Anglo-Saxons!” is the
title of a spirited poem in the June
“Arena” written by Katrina Trask. It
is instinct with moral enthusiasm, and
is a moving call to the conscience of
England and America to unite in a
practical manner for the furtherance
of the cause of peace. “In Prison and
In Exile: The Experience of a Rus-
ian Student” is a paper of general in-
terest told in a simple, direct, and ef-
fective manner, revealing the trials
and privations which the students of
Russia are liable to unhergo if they
express the slightest interest in the
cause of freedom and enlightenment.
“The Commerce of Latin America: A
Magnificent Field Neglected by the
United States,” by Professor Frederick
M. Noa, is a very thoughtful paper that
should appeal strongly to business men
and all persons interested in broaden-
ing the field of American commerce in
a legitimate manner. ‘The Benjamin
Fay Mills Movement in Los Angeles,”
is a highly interesting and suggestive
paper showing what a practical mani-
festation of the Christianity of the
Nazarene has accomplished in less than
one year. “The Constitutional Rights
of American Shipping.” by William Ww.
Bates, the well-known author of
“American Navigation” and other im-
portant works on the commerce of the
New World, is a valuable contribution
to present-day discussions. Mr. Bates,
though opposed to ship subsidies, is a
strong advocate for American com-
mercial expansion, and points out a
practical way in which our country can
regain her supremacy by methods
which prevailed before the decline of
American shipping. “Frederick Opper:
A Cartoonist of Democracy” is a char-
acter sketch of one of the most popular
and influential of the newspaper car-
toonists of the day, and contains a
great number of Mr. Opper’s best car-
toons. Among the political, social and
economic papers of special value is a
very timely and exhaustive discussion
by W. G. Joerns, entitled “Juggling
With Facts and Figures About Trans-
portation: or, How the Railway Inter-
ests and Their Special-Pleaders are
Seeking to Deceive the People,” and
Rudolph Blankenburg’s unmasking of
the amazing corruption in Philadelphia,
under the title of “Municipal Black
Plague.” This issue of the “Arena”
closes Volume XX XIII, and is one of
the strogest numbers that has yet ap-
peared.
Unchanging Circus Rings.
Amid a great hubbub the old circus
man sat on the grass in the sunlight,
smoking a pipe and directing the mak-
ing of the rings.
“Circusses,” he said, “have developed,
evolved and changed. From the one
ring of the past they have grown to
three rings, an elevated stage, and
there are many other improvements.
But in one particular there has been
no change since time began, and that
is in the dimensions of the ring. A
circus ring is always the same size—42
feet 9 inches in diameter. Go where
you will, you will never find a circus
ring with different dimensions from
that.
“A barebackrider can ride best in a
ring of this size. All riders train in
such a ring and ull horses are trained
in such a ring. There would be trouble
for horses and men if the size of the
ring should be changed. It would be
like changing the size of the baseball
diamond, only worse.—Minneapolis
Journal.
DEATH.
I am the key that parts the gates of
fame;
I am the cloak that covers cowering
shame;
T am the final goal of every race;
I am the storm-tossed spirit’s resting
place.
The messenger of sure and swift relief,
Welcomed with wailings and reproach-
ful grief;
The friend of those that have no friend
but me;
I break all chains and set all captives
free.
I am the cloud that, when earth’s day
is done,
An instant yeils an unextinguished sun;
I am the brooding hush that follows
strife,
The waking from a dream that man
calls life!
—TFlorence Earle Coates.
—
TODAY.
01d yesterday is with the dead,
Tomorrow with the yet unborn;
Today is all that lives and breathes
Of glamour and of promise shorn.
«T was” is but a dotard’s sigh,
“I will be” is a dream at best,
«I am” alone is plain to view—
«I am” is manhood’s vital test.
The sun of yesterday 1s set,
Tomorrow’s sun may never rise,
The sun today alone is yours,
But every moment westward flies.
The day that was is now no morse,
The day to be has never been,
Today’s the crisis of your life,
And on it shall you lose or win.

250 CONTESTANTS.
That Many Persons, and Over 350
Poems Figured in the Recent
~ C. P. C. Poetry Contest.
Last week’s Star made mention of
the recent poetry contest given by the
Columbia Phonograph Company, in
which four prizes were given to the
composers of the best four short poems
on the merits of the Columbia graph-
ophone.
Following are the names of the win-
ners, together with the poems that car-
ried off the honors:
FIRST PRIZE.
In Greater Pittsburg, lived a maid
Who loved and won a man, sir.
In doing so, she asked the aid |
Of all her kin and clan, sir.
The “Graphophone,” they all did sdy
Will do the business surely.
She bought a new “Columbia”—
Depended on it purely.
She made it talk and sigh and sing,
Of love and Cupid’s sporting;
And slyly copy everything
He said, when he was courting.
And when he almost failed to put
The question that would win her;
She let him have about a foot
Of his own “talk”—the sinner.
H. A. BaLpwiy, East Liberty, Pa.
SECOND PRIZE,
Whenever you are sad and lone,
Just start the good old graphophone.
Put on a minstrel, song or dance,
Or banjo record, if, perchance,
Such music suits your fancy best.
Perhaps a speech is your request,
Or it may be a noted band,
Or orchestra you’d bave at hand.
All things here named, and many more,
The graphophone brings to your door.
The best machine on earth today—
The matchless, grand Columbia.
P. L. Livexcoonp, Elk Lick, Pa.
THIRD PRIZE.
The graphophone that wins all praise
Has durability and stays
Ever a leader, “sweetly plays.”
Columbia graphophones are best;
Of all machines, they stand the test,
Leading (as ever) all the rest.
Universal praise of tone
Must teach,“ The ColumbiaGraphophone
Beats all competitors,” for they
In sweetest music hold full sway
And all are charmed where’er they play.
In clearest tone of note or voice;
See those who buy, how they rejoice!
Be sure and buy the very best,
Enquire of those who made the test;
Satisfaction will be your guest,
Trust in their praise and you’ll be bless-
ed.
Epwarp MayHuGH, Monongahela, Pa.
FOURTH PRIZE.
There’s happiness in every home,
That has a *Columbia Graphophone.”
Mrs. Hancock, Pittsburg, Pa.
The editor of this paper has received
his prize, a very fine $25-graphophone,
and he is greatly pleased with it. In
writing concerning the shipment of the
beautiful machine, Mr. Henry, the
manager of the company’s Pittsburg
branch, sent the following information
to us:
“It was a vote of three to two as to
whether you or Mr. Baldwin should be
given first prize, =o you will see how
very close you came to winning first
honors.”
Sassafras Tea.
Along about the same time, the boy
come home with a ring of mud around
their mouths, and exhaling breaths
like those which blow o’er Ceylon’s isle
in the hymnbook. They bear = bundle
of roots, whose thick, pink hide mother
whittles off with the butcher-knife and
sets to steep. Put away the store tea
and coffee. Tonight as we drink the
reddish aromatic brew we return not
only to our own young days, but to the
young days of the nation when our
folks moved to the west in a covered
wagon ; which grandpap, only a little
boy then, about as big as Charley there,
got down the rifle and killed the bear
that had climbed into the hogpen;
then when they found old Cherry out
in the timber with her calf between her
legs, and two wolves lying where she
had horned them to death—we return
tonight to the high, heroic days of old,
when our forefathers conquered the
wilderness and our foremothers reared
the families that peopled it. This cup
of fragrant sassafras tonight in their
loving memory! Earth, rest easy on
their mouldering bones!-—FEugene
Wood in McClure’s.
A Frequent Occurrence.
“I’ve been reading of a man who
reached the age of 50 without being
able to read. He met a woman and
for her sake made a scholar of himself
in three years.”
«And T know a man who at middle
life was a profound scholar. At the
age of 50-he met a woman, and for her
sake made a fool of himself in three
days.—Cleveland Leader.
NO SECRET ABOUT IT.
1t is no secret, that for Cuts, Burns,
Ulcers, Fever Sores, Sore Eyes, Boils,
ete., nothing is so effective as Bucklen’s
Arnica Salve. “It didn’t take long to
cure a bad sore I had, and it is O. K.
for sore eyes,” writes D. L. Gregory, of
Hope, Tex. 25c. at E. H. Miller's drug
