I had been 1nyited

To attend an evening ball ;

Is was there that first I met him,
My dearest dear of all.

He did not like dancing, »

So we passed the hours away
By chatting and coquetting,

Tn the long and broad hall-way.

After this most glorious evening,
. It is useless to deny ;
Tha: he made me special visits,

And to please hm I did try.

How well do I remember,
How he held my little hands;
And told me over and giten

His love was the truest of man’s

I never one moment doubted
Those words so sweet and true ;
And only a short while afterward,
‘J rested with him secu-e.

I was always very happy,

During these few short years ;

But Oh! before eight years had passed,
My joy was changed to tears. ;

This part of my story is painful to tell,

It’s so sad but yet so true,

For the Angel of Death has crept into
our home,

Leaving one where there has so long
been two.

But God in his infinite goodness,
Knoweth and doeth all things well ;
Therefore to His will I must eubmit,
And through Him my sorrows repel
But yet I have one hope left to console
' me,
And the memory of it brings a sigh ;
Not until I pass through the valley of

death |
Can I see my dear one that’s gone by.

/ THE SUNDOWN SEA.

Have you heard of the Sundown sea, ‘om
With its blue and ‘golden skies,. |

Where the ripples play the livelong day
And the summer never dies?

There are wealth any health for you, love;
There are health and wealth for me;

There is all that's best in the golden west
On the shores of the Sundown sea.

It will give back the rose to your cheek, love,
For there like a river it flows -

On the sunny breeze through the orange trees,
The breath of the blood red rose,

Go get the old light in your eye, love,
"Neath the shade of the pepper trée—

You know where; there’s enough and to spare
On the shores of the Sundown sea.

 

There's a tear on every thorn, love,
Of the storm scarred locust; there
Are dripping leaves and icy eaves}
There’s a wail on the weeping air;
There’s a song in the frozen rill, love,
But it’s lost to you and me;
There’s a smothered cry in the rain swept sky.
Then away to the Sundown sea.

The luster is gone from your hair, love;
‘Your cheeks are thin and pale}

Your dark eye turns and your spirit yearns
For a glimpse of the sunset trail.

I will sing a new song to you, love,
And you’ll sing a new song to mo,

And we'll grow young as we journey along
On the way to the Sundowhi sea.

—Cy Warman in New York Sun.

 

Willing to Prove It.

The coach was being driven up a
steep mountain road, and at one side
the cliff ran straight down for 100
feet. A youth seated on the back
seat next to a loquacious damsel of
uncertain age was in a state of mis-
ery. The one being he loved most
of alltbe world was in the front
with his hated rival, and nothing
could dispel liis gloom,

“Oh, Mr. Foster,’’ tittered the
young woman next to him, break-
ing in upon his meditations, ‘‘sup-
pose the coach should upset or ]
should fall out, would you try tu
save me?”’

‘Why, of course,’’ was the reply.
““Certainly—to be sure.’’

‘Would you really?’’ she asked.
“Now, teil me exactly how.”

‘Oh, I —eh’’-— began the young
man, intent upon other things.

| Why I’.--

; “Oh, Mr. Foster,’’ sighed the fair
one, “you don’t know really what
you’d do.”

‘‘Well,’” he answered, thoroughly
aroused, “if you doubt me, why,
1’ll show you just what.”

“How can you show met”’
whispered, ‘‘Can you truly give me
4ome prooft q””

‘Yes,’ he returned. “All you have
to do is to proceed to tumble out,
and I'll prove the rest to every-

 

body’s satisfaction.’’ -— Scottish
