Waiting for Father.

The table was set, and the tea-kettle sang
BY the hreside pleasant AM snug;
The voice of the cricket in meirment rang
And puss lay asleep ON the rug.
The rain ON the window pane tapped with WILL
As mother looked out In the gloom;
And three little children sitting 50 sun
In the shade of the dm-lighted ROOM Id
They waited for father So night after night
'Tbav had watched as the year had gone by,
Fo, lis ace at the door, till the tear-drops were
bright ,
And by the bedside as they lay down to sleep,
Tjt, lie white hands were folded in PRAYER,
And SOFT pleading lips asked the Saviour to keep
Their loved one in heavenly care.
For the red fend OF battle went prowlng abroad,
Ton, the hearts that were shrouded In woeD
And with heroes of Freedom, their brave fathers
Met inc blade of the traitorous foe.
Ahi slow were the steps of the hours that passed
Though when evenings grew chilly aed long,
And the arms OF the wind round the old house were
cast
Still the c-ciket breathe hops in her song.
The mother turned sadly away from the pane,
And she kissed her sweet darlings and wept;
And whispered that father would soon come again,
While close to her bosom they crept.
Oh, who is ii comes in the darkness and rain,
To the farm on the brow Of the hill? ..-.
And who Is it peeps through the giimmerng pane
At the group that is joyless and still. 49,
hand on the latch, and voice loud and clear
