A TOKEN OF THE PAST,

BY EMELINE 6. SMITH.
Mamma, why do you always put
SO carefully away
The little silver cup that you
Were looking al to-day
lis no, very beautiful,
MeIhlnSs, nor very fine
Ii IS not Ornamented round
With pretty flowers like mine.
And We, you gaze and gaze on i!
With such a loving eye,
As if you thought heap of gold,
Could not the treasure buy"
You're right, my boy. that lir,le cup
Is very dear to me,
For something fairer than itself,
Ii ever bids me see.
Look a, its slender handle
All often that hath been
Clasped round by dainty fingers,
The daintiest ever seen
And mark its brim-sy, kiss ii, too
Kiss with loving grace.
For the sweetest lips that ever smiled
Have touched the self-same place.
Full many time. when that small hand
Would lift TO those sweet lips
This cup, from which the CRYSTAL dIaugh
Wae !, takan in dainty sins
Fond eyes would o'er i, fash AMI smile
With such witching glance,
The very memory of it yet
Doth all my soul entrance.
Tho dear, dear love which lit that look
Can never wholly die;
1t is hymn begun on earth,
And finished III the sky.
It's heavenly echoes reach me still
They float from that far shore,
Where beam The tender glances now,
That here are seen no more.
Sometimes my soul by care opPressed'
Can scarcely catch the strain;
But if see this little cup,
1t all comes back again.
Then wonder not my boy. lpTlze
This token Of the past
Ii will be dear--it must be dear
While life and memory last.

THE WIDOW wICKs.

The dearest, dain,iest little creature
Was this bewitching widow Wicks
Youth painted every blooming feature
The tender bloom Of thirty-slx.
Her neck was like the lilly white.
(The lilly-whiie that druggists mix')
And like carmine saucer bright
Was either cheek of widow Wieks'
To gaily toss her glossy ringleis
Was one O. her most graceful TICKS +;
One knew not in those angels winglels
What false plumes with the true might
mix.
In Bleeker street, 220,
A brown-stone palace, built OF bricks
Where nice young men were always
plenty,
Boarded the lovely widow Wicks.
She boarded there; with smiles coquetlish
She came TO breakfast, dinner, tea (;
Though all the rest were cool or petiish,
She laughed and talked in childish glee'
With many bright, lighl-leathered ar
row,
She strove some stray heart to transhx;
Yet to her great chagrin and sorrow.
She still remained sweet widow Wlcks'
A, last there came wealthy miser-
A man some seventy odd years old
He seemed to duly love and prize her,
And she-she duly priced his gold.
Too blind he was for any lenses
To show him true her pretty tricks /;
He minds not what his foes or friends say,
He marries charming widow Wicks
Alas, the day On which he did, oh
1t proved the sorriesi of his life
For soon he learned charming widow
Was not. perforce, charming wife.
She spent his gold like so much water
Instead of kisses gave him kicks,
And did so much she hadn't ought to,
He wished her once more widow Wicks.

An incident in the Cars.


dents are not common in the cars, think.
This opinion expressed to my friend
Somers, the other day. In reply TO my
remark he related lille adventure which
as il is apropos. and moreover involves
little love and sentiment, give il without
apology in his own words. !! appears
that in the most unlikely places love and
sentiment may be observed.
Il was escor,ing home lovely Char
loue D, 10 whom was al the time
quite devoted we got into crowded av-
enue car. Charlo le could scarcely find
room TO spread her crinoline and arrange
her vouminous hounces stood up near
her. there being no vacant seat.
After few minutes came in poor wo-
man, who deposited a basket of clothes
on the platform. and held in her arms
small child. while little girl hung TO Der
dress. She looked tired and weary, but
there was no vacant seat. To be sure
Charlotte nigh, have condensed her foun-
ces, but she did not. Beside her. howev-
er, sat very lovely and elegant young
woman. who seemed trying. by moving
down closer TO the others. to make room
for them between hersslf and Miss,
AT last she succeeded, and with the sweet
est blush | ever saw, she invited the poor
burdened female 10 be seated. Charlotte
D---drew up heI drapery around her
and blushed too. but il was not a pretty
blush at all. and she looked annoyed at
the proximity of the newcomer. who
was, however, decently, though tbinly
clad.
The unknown lady drew the little girl
upon her lap, and wrapped her velvet
mantel around the small, half clad form,
and put her muf over the half frozen lii
tie blue hands.
So great was the crowd that | alone
seemed to observe. The child shivered
the keen wind from the door blew upon
her unprotected neck. | saw the young
lady quietly draw from under her shawl a
little crimson shawl, which she softly put
on the shoulders of the lille one, the
mother looking on with confused wonder.
After short time the mother rose 10
| leave the car, and would have removed
the shawl but the unknown gently whis'
pered, No ; keep il on keep it for her.
The woman did not answer, the conduc'
tor hurried her out, but her eyes swan in
tears, which no one saw but me. no.
,iced her as she descended 10 basemen
and hastily marked the house.
Soon after my unknown rose 10 depart
I was in despair, for ! wanted to follow
and discover her residence, but could
not leave Miss D.
How glad, then, was to see her bow
ing as she passed out 10 mutual ac'
quaintance who stood in the doorway
From him, ere many minutes, l hac
learned her name and address.
To shorten the story as much as possi'
BILE .hat lady is now my wife. The
small incidents which introduced her to
me showed her real character. A few
DAYS after our marriage showed her The
blessed crimson shawl, which had re-
deemed from It's owner, and shall always
keep as memen,o. There are some
times pleasan, things TO be found even in
unexpected places. Certainly | may be
said TO have picked up my wife In the
