That marks the destiny of men, 1 To glory or despair,? There is a line by us unseen, That crosses every path? The hidden boundary between God's patience and His wrath. To pass that limit is to die: To die as if by stealth: It does not quench the beaming eye, rrl r\rt' Af hnoltll *\ur pcllt: IUU 5iv/r?

And every fear is calmed: He dies, he dies, he wakes in hell? Not only doomed but damned. Oh. where is that mysterious bourne By which our path is crossed; Beyond which God Himself hath sworn, That he who goes is lost? An answer from the skies is sent? Ye who from God depart, 'While it is called today repent, And harden not your heart. ?Anon. TH K BKTTKK MAX. Story of Two Aspirants For a Placie on the lioat Crew. A few seasons ago. says a prominent crew coach in Outing, two men were competing closely for a seat in tha "varsity" boat. One day I called them together and said: "Just now you two men are working equally well in the boat, but one has a better scholarship standing than the other, and to me that seems to indicate that one of you has a little more personal priae man me other." As a matter of fact, the man who i was not up to the scratch in his work was a bit the better of the two as far as smoothness in the boat was concerned. I thought the incident might cause him to pick up in his classes. It did not. When the time came to make a final selection of the eight I again called the pair in to see me.* ["It's still hard to decide between you two. I would just as soon have you throw a coin to decide the win* ner," I said. The man with the poor scholarship record was the first to speak. "That's all right with me." he said. The other man thought for a minute. I saw his mouth go tight. Then he said: "No. sir; that doesn't suit me. One of us must be the best man. 1 want to know which and to know why I am not the best man." r Some people would probably have thought that fellow conceited, but not if they knew what it means for a youngster to put in months and months of hard training for a crew. The second man was of a quiet type. I but after he spoke I knew the thing f that every coach is most anxious to find out?that he was the kind who would he pulling hardest when his ' ^ lungs were feeling like bursting in that last hard half mile. You can guess which man got the place. The man who did not was too easily satisfied. Gler.dale Spring water on sale at Murdaugh's Grocery Store.?adv. MT. LASSKX IX ERUPTION. (?= ; Fears Felt for Safety of Those in! Danger Zone. Redding, Cal., May 30.?Lassen Peak burst into violent eruption again today. Another flow of boiling mud is reported pouring down // the sides of the volcano. Fears are felt for the safety of those in the \ danger zone. The eruption today was the first J since me destructive uuiurean. ui May 22 marked the first anniversary I of the peak as an active volcano. As there having been heavy snowfalls since the outbreak a week ago it is believed the flood of boiling mud will be even greater than the last and will inundate a large territory. When the eruption occurred many persons were known to have been in the surrounding territory, and even on the peak itself.
