of subjects about himself and family.
He spoke of death, also, with great ooTRse

thing about him so serious, and so firm,
so resigned, and so composed, 80 difer.1s

OEE By ONE.
BY Lutte SUTHERLAND
One by one they drop from out our presence,
Like pearls lost from their silken string,
Our gentle friends,-we did not think to miss
them,
Ere Winter changed to Spring.
Ono by one some tender links are broken,-
The severed chain drops sadly part
We cannot hope to e'er again replace them,
Nor heal the bleeding smart
"a
One by one some gentle words are spoken,
The last sweet words those lips may speak,
Ndstones that e'er again we hear may waken
The echoes they did wake,
One by one sweet tender eyes have glistened,
With humid moisture drawn by others woe,
And though there are some left our griefS to
tighten,
There is one less we know.
One by one the summer flowers are fading,
Zen as the summer flowers are fading,
And one less Joyous harvest may we gather,
Nor stay them did we try.
One by one all sweets of Earth are passing;
But memory live to gives them tone;
And If they are only gsr1Hred up in Heaven,
We may one day claim cur own. . ..
And here is another from the same
writer:
LIES MEASURE,
at matters not how long we live, but how
FEsTUs.
It matters not how long we live, but how,
The sands of life will ebb out all too fast
For our accomplishment. The flying now
But wreathos the crown our doing wins at last.
We need not wait for years to bring the touch
The magic touch that turns all things to gold,
The years of youth suffice 10 scatter such
Good seed that we may garner when we're old.
Learn we Of sages who have lived and died
And gone the way that all must trnvel Ger;
Tint doing well IR mora than all hesidps
And that good talent gains us more and more.
We do not live in yeasr, but in our deeds
Nor count our deeds as entrance fee to fame
Nor win our purpose when laudations needs
Sound fimsy glory TO bedcck our name.
We must not measure time by our pulse beats;
For he lives not who for himself doth live,
Who thinks and feels and acts the noblest, meets
The richest boon which earth and Heaven can
give.
And when Ambitions sounding voice is heard,
Inciting us to deeds the weak might shirlk,
BY this remembrance be our impulse stirred,-
Work for mankind is smankind's highest work.
