The Erasing Song.
1 heard her song beside the door;
The wind to me Its echo bore;
"Gone home! Come home!" I heard
it aay
In silver)' sweetness down the way;
"Come home! Come home! The
night is here;
Come home to all that hold you
dear!"
I heard tur song above my care;
The swee* winds brought it to me
there;
The Hliies sped it hand in hand
Adown the golden twilight land:
"Come home! Come home! the
night is sweet;
Ob, come, my love, on hurrying
feet;"
I hear her singing as of old,
Above the hill, along the wold;
I hear it a silver breath
Of music after music's death:
"Come home! Come home!"
voice! Ob, star!

Asking Too Much.
I believe there's a story told of
Mark Twain that in youthful days,
being sent out by his mother to weed
a certain flower bed, and finding more
weeds than flowers, he came back in
and asked if he might not "flower the
weed bed."
Our little Alfred probably has as
great an aversion to work as had the
youthful Clemens. Admonished to
pull some rather large weeds in the
back yard, after a faint-hearted lift
on one of them, he shouted:
"Mama, how do you think I'm go-
ing to pull these weeds when the
whole world la hitched onto them?"

Turn Democracy Takes Its Stand.
After being in control of the State government for thirty years, during
all that time controlling the GOVERNOR, COURTS and LEGISLATURE, the
prosecuting attorneys, the public press and even having the selection of
juries, the Democratic party of Texas has never sent a CRIMINAL TRUST
MAGNATE TO JAIL although it is openly charged that a dozen or mare
trusts like the School Book Trust for example, thrive and flourish in Texas.
