THE NOBLE NATURE
It is not growing like a tree In bulk, doth make Man better be; Or standing long an oak, three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere: A lily of a day Is fairer far in May. Although it fall and die that- nightIt was the plant and flower of light. In small proportions we just beauties see; And in short measures life may perfect be. —Ben Johnson.
"Sir Joseph Ward," says the ''Herald," "has imposed great schemes ou the Dominion." Though not an imposing personality, Sir Joseph has certainly imposed on the people. He lias contrived to turn a party of progress into a combination of commercial interests and Tory aims.—Sydney "UWW "
