' I SHALL BE SATISFIED.
I"
After the toil and turmoil
And the anguish of trust belied,
After the burden of weary cares,
Baffled longings, ungranted prayers;
After the passion and fever and fret,
After the eching of vain regret.
After the hurry and heat of strife.
The yearning and tossing that men call
"life;"
Faith that mocks, and fair hopes denied,
I shall bo satisfied.
When the golden bowl is broken
At the sunny fountain side;
When the turf lies green and cold above
Wrong and sorrow and loss and love;
When the great dumb walls of silence stand 1
At the doors of the undiscovered land;
When oil we have left In our olden place
Is an empty chair and a i Ictured face;
When the prayer is ended, and the sigh is
sighed,
I slgill be satisfied.

OLD MF.EK AVENGED.
I
At Meyer's Cross Roads, Tenn., a do- J
serted shanty marks the spot where I
there once flourished a great.commerciai
emporium. This busy mart of merchandise
was presided over by a wheezing
old fellow who was known as Meek Ben- i
der. His whole life seems to have been;
a continual round of apology. His fear j
was not of a drought, which might in- j
jure trade, or of an overflow of the ;
creek, which might wash his house
away, but that he might at some
thoughtless time wound the feelings of
his fellow man. His name was John,
but hi3 habit of extreme care, his man- j
ner, which had been refined into gentle- |
ness and then softened into timidity, j
brought to him the name of Meek. His '
business was good, for there was no !
other store in the community, yet he j
was always hard pushed. The fact is he ;
was too timid and too much afraid of
giving offense to refuse credit, and when
credit had been given he was too gentle
to ask for the money which was due him.
% Even people that were regarded as strictly
honest were not slow in imposing on
old Meek.
The back room of Meek's store was
the wet day gathering place for the
neighborhood. Contracts for the yeai
-n-n 11 n fhare and manv an old
score had been settled in that dingy back !
room. When the weather was cold and
when the fire bnrned low no one would ,
offer to go out and bring in wood from
the rick, a short distance away,some
strapping fellow would call old
Meek, no matter how busy ho might be.
"Here, old boy, you wiH'havo to calk
up this room to keep the fire from getting
out if you don't mind."
"Gentlen^g^- he^-would reply, in a
manner, "you must
me' You'll pardon me,
^gg^jp^pPiBIM^ryoa? I will do better in the futOne
day 'Lige Parker came into the
store, and calling old Meek aside said:
"Meek, I've got to have $25."
" 'Lige," Meek answered, with embarrassment,
"you know that if I had it
you could get it."
"What, haven't you got it?"
"Not to save my life, 'Lige."
("Oh, come now, jjieea. w no ever
hearn of you bein' out of money? The
rest of us mout be hard up, but you air
alius fixed. Let me have twenty-five."
" 'Lige, I lent the last cent I had this
very mornin'."
"Go and look in the drawer, Meek. 1
reckon youH find some sneakin' round in
thar."
"I took out the last cent, 'Lige."
"Wall, dang it, go an' look when I tell
you."
'Lige followed him to the money
drawer. The old man pulled the drawer
open and said, "Thar now, 'Lige, don't
you see thar ain't none?"
"Thar ain't none, sho huff. Who did
you lend it to?"
"I don't like to say, 'Lige."
"Oh, it's all right. What difference
can it make?"
- - '.1..ItSctit like* to be. Wllic.'
whfwJL lenfl mniiev to."
" liJ~~ c "'Qpmev'USn'me! I won't say a word i
abouflt."
"Not a word, Tdge?"
"Not a single word."
"Wall, Fll tell yon, jest to 'commodate
yon. but please don't mention it. Jim
Heniy come to me this mornin' an*
lowed that he must have twenty-five,
an' I let him have it, although I've got a
bill that I must pay this week or shut
up the house."
"Jim Henly, eh? W'y, he oughter
have plenty money. He's got some celts
that he can sell any time fur a good
price. Say, when he pays you back will
you let me have the twenty-five?"
"Of course, 'Lige, you know I'll let
you have it as soon as I get it."
That afternoon 'Lige met Jim Henly
in the road. "Hello, Jim, which way?"
"Oh, sorter ridin' roun' for my health,
as the feller 'lowed when he was gittin'
outen the way of the sheriff."
"Didn't know but you was goin' over I
te.Ald Meek'a."
?"Wall, I didn't know but I moufc ride
over that way befo' the thing is done^
"Goin' to pay him that money, I reck
W _ .
"What money?" Jim asked in surprise.
"The twenty-five you borrowed from
"How the devil do you know I borrowed
any mony from Mm?"
"You won't say nothin* about it, will
"Wall, I was over to the 6tore this
mornin', an' th6 old man was sorter complainin'
about a bill he's got to pay or
shut up the house. Said he needed the
money he let you have."
"Ah, ha, the old fool is paradin' it
Yound that he let me have a few dollars,
is he?"
"Not particularly paradin' it, Jim.
He 'lows that he needs the money, an' 1
iwlmn hA dr>. Rrm't rav nrvfchin' Arvnnt
it, but if you can raise the money, w'y
go an' give it to him. Wall, so long."
It was a chilly evening. A number of
the "boys" sat in old Meek's back room
playing cards.
"You've got me faded now," said Alf
Moore, bunching his cards. "Got me
down wh&r the ground is mighty rocky.
Hello, Jim Henly, how air they cominT
Squat and take a hand."
"Whar is old Meek?" Henly asked.
"Gone out to git some wood. I blieve."
Meek came in and put a back log on
I the fire.
"W'y, howdy, Jim," said the old man,
as he brushed oft his sleevee. "Sorter
chilly an' saft outside."
Jim stood looking at him. After a while
he remarked, "Yes, a little chilly, but
not as much so as it will be if people
don't stop talkin' about thar betters."
"Anytnmg wrong, Jim: tne oia man j
asked.
"Yefl, thar is. Thar's a blame sight
wrong."
"What is it, Jimmy?" the old man
jisked, almost affectionately.
"Why, it's this, an' I want you to understan'
me when I say it. If yon don't
stop bio win' an' a-sncrtin' about lendin'
me that money I'll shut off jour air.
Oh, you needn't try to look like a sick j
kitten. You've been talkin' about me,
an' you know It; an', more'n that, I don't i
intend to let you lie out of it. Don't j
s^y a word, you old blatherskite. The j
totgnes of old fools haye caused me j
enough trouble lately?caused me and ;
my wife to part?shut up!"
Old Meek had attempted to say some- j
thing.
"Jest stan' thar an' take your medi- j
cine, as I am a mind to give it. 1 ou
have been playin' the hypercrit with us :
long enough, an' me for one ain't goin' !
s?find it no longer. Don'tsay a word, i
I tell you?don't open your chops. You
git about ever* cent that's made in this !
neighborhood, an' then when a man j
wants a little accommodation you go
around an' blow about it"
Every one gazed at Jim, but not a
word was spoken. The violence of Jim'a
temper was well known. No one moved
except Alf, and he, taking out his buck?

QOm rianuie mine, vcguu to cut uu a

"Yes," Jiin went on, "we've been i
thinkin' all along that you was so harm- |
less when we mout 'a' knovred that you
was a snake in the grass. What, you
will say somethin', whuther no! By
G?d, 111 show you!"
He snatched the knife out of ALTs
hand, and. 60 quickly that a -wide awake
eye could scarcely follow his motion,
stabbed the old man.
Jim sprang through the door and dis- j
appeared in the darkness. They took ;
old Meek from the floor and tenderly j
placed him on the bed.
"Alf," said the old man, "I've bled on ;

The boys were in the back room of the j
store sitting up with the old man. Sev- j
eral days had elapsed and a physician :
who had just left thought he might re- j
cover. He was resting quietly; the boys
were playing cards.

"Want anything. Meek?" Alf asked.
"No, I don't want nothin', an' above j
all I don't want to interrupt the game, |
but I jest wanted to tell you that I be- I
lieve that I am dyin'."
"Oh, I reckon not," Alf replied, getting
np, but when he reached the bedside
the old man was dead.
? *
"Who's thar?" Jim called, opening the
door and gazing into the darkness.
"Alf an' the boys," came the reply.
"What do you want, bovs?"
"Come out here."
"What's up?" he asked when he came
to the gate.
"Jestice."
"I don't understand."
"But you shall. Meek is dead."
"I understand."
"Cy, hand me the rope," said Al? -

Soldier*' Indian Hardship*.
In a land of leeches you should think !
twice before wading in water. Otherwise
you may emerge with a shaggy covering
of jet black. Something like this
has happened to two British warriors in
India, Privates Speed and Davis, who,
having left Bareilly for a day's sport and j
lost their way, were fastened upon by ;
the leeches in the pools which they had
to cross barelegged. The two soldiers
wandered about hopelessly for nine days.
Bareilly is near the jungles of Nepaul,
the favorite home of the tiger; but before
the nine days were out Davis and
Speed would have given a year or two of
their lives for the sight of an honest wild :
pig.
It is a marvel that the two did not die
of hardship. The heat in upper India
in July is simply terrific. Yet the two
survived it, exposed to the sun's rays
during the day, sleeping in the open air
at night. Not a village did they come
acffose, not a human being, for-the whole
region was submerged by the yearly
floods. They began by catching butterflies,
and they finished off by being found
nine-tenths dead beside the metals of a
railway line. The first solid food they
had in nine days was two "chupatties."
A chupatty is a wheaten cake, not unlike
a Scotch bannock. There's nothing
about the restorative "pig," but doubtless
it came in time.?London News.
The Muskroot for Cholera.
The Russian government has sent sevwith
ferula sumbul, or muskroot, a
plant which grows in Turkestan and
which possesses certain anti-spasmodic
properties. It formerly enjoyed quite a
reputation in Germany and Russia as a
remedy for cholera, but has fallen out
of use in recent times. Even its name is
now unknown to most practitioners in,
those countries, although the plant is
still regarded popularly as an efficient
diarrhoea medicine.?Chicago News.

The anti-Tillmanites, iii mass meeting

effect were unanimously adopted, and
also that the delegation claiming
