How our youthful affection shines out as it seems; In the light of the roxance around it that gleams; And it knows no beginning or ending or why Its continuing course should not run till die. '..^d a sign of a seal of our reverence too, Had a part in our creed when that old ring was new, Where a slender, light hand was upraised to our lips And our kisses were pressed on its slim finger tips, For that circle of gold seemed a hallowed pledge, Of a homage profounder than words can allege. But the metal that's purest wears quickest away, And that old wedding ring has grown thinner today; Yet the hand which it graced graces in its turn With a magic the alchemist vainly would learn. For sweet charity's touch has so filled it with gold Tliat that hand never lacked to the hungry and cold. And the summer may come and the summers may go, And the winters may whiten the hair with snow; StilJ the hand which a lover delighted I to kiss Wears the sign:t of half of a century's bliss.

THE POLICY IS OUTLINED The Action is Taken on Chester Complaint.?An Important Resolution is Adopted By the Board at Its Last Quarterly Meeting. \ Columbia.?Ey virtue of the authority vested in the executive committee of the state board of health by a' re- ' i cent act of the general assembly an important resolution was adopted by the board at its quarterly meeting in regard to the emptying of crude sewerage into streams.

If the state board of health deems it unsanitary or dangerous to permit such disposal of criaie sewerage, said city, town, community or corporation shall establish a sewerage disposal system approved by the state board of health." The title of the act by which such authority was given the board is: "An act to authorize the executive committee of the state board of health to adopt, promugate and enforce rules and regulations for the betterment ana protection 01 uie puulic health." Another point brought up for consideration was the report of the condition of the sewerage system of Chester.
