full force into the box. After waiting in breath

In my young days, said a friend, / was
extraVagantlg fond Of attending parties, and
somewhat celebrated for playing on the
flute. Hence, 1t was generally expected
that, when an invitation was extended, my
flute would accompany me.
! visited a splendid party, one evening,
and was called upon to favor the company
with tune on the flute /, of course. inn.
mediately complied with the request. Tho
company appeared delighted; but more par
tlcularly SO, was young lady who raised
her hands, and exclaimed, cit was beauti.
full, delightful" &c.
|, of course, was highly delighted. and
Immediately formed resolution to serenade
the young lady, on the following night. I
started the next night in company with sew.
eral young friends, and arrived, as sup.
posed, at the lady's residence, but made a
glorious mistake by getting under the win
dow of an old Quaker.

mentality of this young lady, the moment |

and the boys began to smile

not be in good taste to raise the window on
the first air.

the window remained closed. The boys
snickered, and felt somewhat fat.
"Once more, boys" said l, ''and she
must come" l struck UP. again-"My
love is like the Red Red Rose" Still, there
was no demonstration.
"Boys," said l, ''she's humbug. Let
us sing, Home, Sweet Home and if that
don't bring her, I'll give her up
We struck up, and as we finished the last
line, the window was raised.
"That's the ticket boys-I knew we could !.
fetch her.
But, instead Of the beautiful young lady,
t turned out to be an old Quaker. in his
night cap and dressing gown.

OLD TIME.

Men call me feeble, old and gray,
My strength and vigor passed away;
But strong and stalwart still am /,
Nor frail my step nor dim mine eye.
What are thousand years to me!
But as drop to FOUNDER sea!
I've not yet reached my manhoods prime,
AM. lapgh to hear men say "Old Time"
Let centuries pass and ages roll;
The year that my last knell shall toll
So far away the future lies
That not tear hath wet mine eyes.
No! am joyous, gay and free,
Leading life of mirth and glee,
But, man! note we'll each passing chime
Short is thy stay in the realms of time.
