SIX LITTLE FEET ON THE FENDER
In my heart there liyeth picture

In nv heart there Eveth a picture
: OF q kIsvslsn rude and old,
Whcr. the freight tripped DER the rafter,
And redeemed the roofs brown mold,
Gliding the steam of the kettle,
That hummed on the foot-worn hearth,
Throughout all the livelong evening,
Its measure of drowsy mirth.
because of the three light shadows
That frescoed that rude old room
Because Of the voices echoed
Up mid the rafters' gloom
Because of the feet On the fender,
six restless, white little feet
The thoughts of that dear Old kitchen
Are 10 me so fresh and sweet
When the first dash at the window
Told Of the coming rain,
o. where are the faIr young faces
That crowded against the pane
While bits of freight stealing
Their dimpled checks between,
Went struggling out In darkness,
In shreds of silver sheen.
Two of tn feet grew weary
One dreary, dismal day.
And w, tied them with snow-white ribbons
Leaving them by the way;
There was fresh clay on the fender
That weary, wintry night,
For the four little feet had tracked it
From the grave on the bright hills hight.
o. why, on this darksome evening,
This evening ofrain and sleet,
Rest my feet all alone on the hearthstone
o. where are those other feet
Are they treading the pathway of virtue
That Will bring us together abOye2
Or have they made steps that will dampen
4 sisters tireless love?

THE BROOK-SID
By RICHARD MoNckroS MILSEs.


/ wandered by the brook-side,
1 wandered by the mill;
| could not hear the brook flow
The noisy wheel was still
There was no burr Of grasshopper,
No ehIrp of any bird,
But the beating of ny own heart
Was the only sound heard
| sat beneath the elm tree;
| watched the long, long shads,
And, as IL grew still longer,
! did not feel afraid;
For listened for IA football
| listened for word
But the beating of my own heart
Was all the sound heard.
He came not-no, he came not
The night came on alone
The little stars sat one by one,
Each on his golden threne;
The evening wind passed by my check
The leaves above We're stirred
But the beating of my ewn heart
Was all the sound | heard.
asst silent tears Were flowing,
When something stood behind;
a hand was on my SHOULDER
knew its touch was Kind;
1T drew me nearer-Dearer-
We did not speak one word
For the beating of our own hearts
Was aii the sound We heard.

OF hair jewelry. He also manufactures all ar
tlcles of this kind from the hair of friends fur
nlshed by his patrons. He is also the inventor
and sole proprietor of the celebrated Camp
bell japanese HAIR DYE, article OF such
excessive virtue that it has become recognized
as the only article of the kind worth using. 1t
dyes the hair beautiful shade of brown and
deiies white hair With the regeneratIng power
OF youth. No more isxen polls, making the
countenance beneath resemble that OF a Chi
neSe Mandarin; no more indefinite eyebrows
and sickly moustaches, whose hirsute growth
OF pale cadayerous hue make the owner rs ham,
ed OF it Instead, luNuriance of color which
amply atones for any lack OF material, and
which does not
Turn white
In a single night
but by skiiitai application restores 1t TO its
originsl beauty aud color.
Campbell Is the rage il Chicago among all
classes OF citizens, and no thinks of purch-
Asing anything in his line a. any other place.
