This work devo.cd TO both sexes will open
new volume with the number for January, 1912,

The volume will be opened with new and
beautiful type, the finest white paper, and with
the first off
.New Series Of Embellishments
unsurpassed by any which have yet appeared in
any Magazine. The style of elegance, the beau

its literary department given it by the brilliant ar

character abore any .Maga=ine in The Union.
The Magazine has become the standard oftaste
in matters of establishment and has led the way
IN every thing really beautiful published in the
magazine of last year. The voice of the public
press, while it places tho work at the head of A.
merican Llteraturc,is unanimous in the announce
mont, that no work ever started in the country
has been so elegantly embolllshed or has so rapid
ly increased. For the new volume, the most ex-

No other magazine of this kind can have them

This we take to be a good move and although

them in popularity. The engagement is perma-

wandered out one summer night
Twas when my years were toS,
The breeze was singing IN the light
And was singing too.
The mooihcams lay upon the hill
Tho shadows IN the vale,
And here and there leaplng nh
Was laughing at the gale
Ono fleecy cloud upon the air
Was all that me, my ewes:
1t iloated like an angel there
Between me and the skies
clapped my hands and warbcd wild
As here and there | flew
For was but careless child,
And did as children DO.
The waves came dancing o'or the sea
In brigh, and glitlering bands;
Like little children wild with glce,
They linked their dmpled hands.
They linked their hands--bu, ere caugh,
Their mingled drops fdew,
They kissed my feet, and quick as thought
Away tho rpples flew.
The twilight, hours like birds flew by,
As lightly and free,
Ten thousand stars were in the sky,
Ten thousand in the sea,
For every wave with dimpled check
That leaped upon the air,
Had caugh, star in its embrace,
And held it trembling there.
The young moon, too, with upturncd sides,
Her miuor'd beauty gave
And as a bark at anchor rides,
She rode upon the wave.
The sea was like the heaven above,
As perfect and as whole,
Save thst it seemed to thrill with lore,
As thrills the immortal soul.
The leaves, by sprit-voices sirrd,
Made murmurs on the air
Low murmurs, that my spirit heard,
And answered with prayer,
For twas upon the dewy sod
Beside the moaning seas,
learned at first 10 worship God,
And sing such strains as these,
The flowers, all folded to their dreams,
Were bound in slumber free,
BY breezy hills and murmurng streams,
Where'cr they CHANGED to be.
No guilty tears had they to weep,
No SINS TO be forgiven,
They closed their eyes, and went 10 sleep,
Right IA tho face Of Heaven.
No costly raiment round them shone,
No Jewels fiom the seas,
Yet solomon upon his lhIone,
Was nc 'or arIayed like these
And Just as free from guilt and art,
Were lovely human flowers,
Ere SORROW set her bleeding heart
On TINS fair world OF ours

When PLAYING with my hair
The bTcoly fingers Of tie wind,
How cool and mois, ,hcy were
