WIND OF THE DESERT
By Carrie Fiske.
Wind of the Desert, Wind cf the
Desert, fly!
Bitter your smile, your bony hand
is dry.
See how the hills shrink at your
touch of death!
Withered the bough, beneath your
scorching breath!
Sere lies the grass that waved so
lush and high—
Wiud of the Desert, Wind of the
Desert, fly!
Drear lies the earth bereft of all
she bore;
Restlees, the wave beats on the
barren shore;
Restless, the wave beats ou the
barren shore;
Drained are the springs, and hush
ed the canyon's flood;
Woe to the herds, for you will d'rinl
their blood!
Hasten! We hear their long and
mournful cry—
Wind of the Desert, Wind of h'e
Desert, fly!
Wind of the Deser", Wind of the
Desert, fly!
Back to your bed, beneath a blaz
ing sky.
Darts there the lizard to your
crackling touch,
Cactus and thorn spear at your tat
ters clutch,
Waits tuere the snake coiled, with
his glittering eye—
Wind of the Desert, Wind of the
Desert, fly!
Let the white mist, with her low
sweeping train.
Pass o'er the vales, with promise of
the rain.
Go! Let the sea wind freeshen at
our call,
Bright on our rooftrees let the
blessing fall.
With youT swift flight a curse shall
pass us by—
Wind of the Desert, Wind of the
Desert, fly!

V MOTHER S INFLUENCE
The famous English orator, John
Bright, was asked how he came to
be luch a master of the art of
public speaking. He answered that
the only help he ever had in that
direct;on he got by listening to his
mother read the Bible.
She was accustomed to read the
Bible aloud to the children, and toe
was so fascinated, he said, by her
way ot" reading that he had tried
ever since to Imitate it.
John Bright became a great
statesman, who carried out the teach
ings of the Bible in a noble and
helpful life. S uch was the power of
his eloquence that he brought about
threat and beneficent changes in the
laws of England.
His mother's Bible reading during
the years of his impressible child
hood influenced his whole life; the
careful, unhurried, reverent and ex
pressive way in which she read was
the ch'ef influeoce in producing one
of England's greatest and noblest
orators.
There are many ways in which a
motli r may influences legislation,
even * 11 communities where she may
not yet cast avote.—Youth's Com
panion.
