The flower may fade; .N
For to fade It's made;
The flower may die,

But still its fragrance lives,
And its sweet odor gives,
And with such rich perfumes fill the air,
That one thinks the living flowers near.
So friends may each other leave, ...
Then for their absence grievc-- 30. ..
From each others vision they may fade
For It's to suffer thus they are made.

And determine never more to roam.
But those that feel the stngs of cupid's dart
From each other are most 10th to depart;
For when lovers are called to part,
1t near rcnds the lifc-strings of their heart.

1t is more dear to the loving soul,

The First Pop---Bold Stroke for q Hus-
band--Courage Girls.

The delightful task falls to us of repor-
ting the first brilliantly successful case of
popping the question since the advent of
Leap Year. 1t is very interesting case,
and wehave no doubt that if Others pursue
alike strenuous course, husband, at least,
will be the result. .. r.
Some one has remarked that carly mar
rage makes us immortal. 1t is the sole
and chief empire. The man who resolves
TO 1--we without woman, and that woman
who resolves to live without man, are en-
cmles to the community in which they
dwell, injurious to themselves, destructive
to whole world, apostates from nature,
and rebels against heaven and earth!
Such, undoubtedly, were the thoughts
OF Miss Charlotte Black, as she rose from
her bed on the lucky morning of January
III L have chance to-day, I'll do it, if
choke in the attempt. I'll, if needs be,
martyr to my nown happiness. Yes,'
she continued, parenthetically, snow, OF
never--now, or never y and she repeated
this strong expression several times, all
the while looking fierce and determined
as desperation itself.
Miss Black took her breakfast at nine
intending to take an omnibus at ten.-
Dressing herself with the greatest care
even to the proper sticking of a pin, she
awaited the arrival of the coach Punctr.
al, to one second, came the omnibus
The lady stepped to the curb and enquired
IN a delicate sentimental voice,
"Have you any room inside, Mr.. Dri,

"Yes'm, lots room!" then looking down

We meet to part forever
We met, but meet no more,
Those hours of joy and happiness
With thee are ever DER, -.
All dreary seems the cold, cold world;
All night-and not one ray
OF hope to light the wilderness
Or cheer my lonely way. d. ..
Thy smile an angel might have owned,
Inever more shall see,
Nor hearagain thy voice which seem'd
Like music sweet to me.
Thy kiss which thrilled my bosom,
Thy pure, thy loving kiss, ~
never shall receive again
1t were too much of bliss.
Each cherished word and token
Thy goodness ever gave,
BY me shall be far priced above
The gems of sea or cave.
Farewell-farewell forever.

In that I'll seek for happiness;
May heaven keep watch DER thine.

AN EPiTAPH.~-A farmer named Keeze
hired n fellow who had knack of poetry
making, TO write his epitaph, He was to
give the poet dinner and supper for the
JOB. After the first meal he sat down and
begun thus: f NH ~ /. 49,
There was a man who died of late, Z r.
For whom the angels did impatient wait
With outstretehed arms and wings of love,
To watt him to tho realms above.
Keezle was much pleased with this, and
begged the writer TO go on; but he declined
finishing the cpitaph until he had the supper
That fnished, he put on his coat, and then
wound upthe verse in these words:
But while they disputed for the prize,
Still lowering around the lower skies,
In slipped the devil like q weezle,
And down to hell he kicked old Keezle.
After which he took 10 his heels and old
Keezle after him with a horse-whip.'
