Have Something sweet to
Tell You.

BY FRANCES S. osGooD.
! have something sweet to tell you,
But the secret you must keep;
And remember, if it isn't right,
! am "talking in my sleep"
For | know / am but dreaming,
When ! think your love is mine;
And / know they are but seeming,
All the hopes that round me shine.
So remember when l tell you
What / can no longer keep,
We are none of us responsible
For what we say in sleep.
My pretty secrets coming!
o, listen with your heart,
And you shall hear it humming
So close twill make you start.
o shut your eyes so earnest,
Or mine will wildly weep;
love you! Iadore you! but
81 am talking in my Sleep"

A few weeks more, and the scene was
changed. Ina darkened apartment, sup
ported by pillows, was the emaciated
form Of the lovely, young wife! No
voice was heard above a whisper-no

The sweet sufferer received the intel

"Bring me my babe" she family said,
and the unconscious little one was gen.
