A song for the season, my dear, my dear,
A song for the sunshiny weather!
And what does it matter the time O. the
year,
When you and l are together?
A song for the summer, flying south,
A tlattering song to stay her!
And If l were the bird with the golden
mouth,
Iwould not care to delay her.
All the year round my skies are blue,
Into your blue eyes gazing;
Shining, smiling, tender and true
Oh, these are the ones for praising!
The best of mine that the year could claim
Were homage but half-hearted,
For | know the brightness will be the same
When her bloom is all departed.
When out of the world the sunshine slips,
Its hoard the hearth stone shoWeth;
The one light suffereth no eclipse,
Whatever the way it goeth.
It's you that's wearing the summers crown,
To you all sweet names gather;
It's you love when the SHOWS are down
Oh, let me sing you rather!
For though whisper it unaware,
Youl name is spell that raises
All singing spirits that dwell in the air,
Making sheaf of praises.
A song to the youth our years above,
Holding all worlds in tether;
1t suits all seasons, my love, my love,
While you and together!-

Shakespeare. We never knew anybody
that cared to taste of that kind of sweet

had been widower for upwards of ten
years. When in his sixtieth year he COM

maiden offorty. Occasionally these ancient
turtle doves would quarrel, and the lady
would pitch into her admirer, black his
eyes, tear his clothes, pull out some of the
few hairs left on his head, and in fact, when
he left her presence ON such occasions, he
looked like an Orange man who had made
use of his party toasts when in company
with a few Hibernians. Still he chung
this infatuated old mop-stick did-to the
passionate maiden, and eventually she con-
scented to marry him. When their engage.

fossils trends, one of them asked him how
he could possibly want to marry woman
of such all outrageous temper.
"Well," this dilapidated old philosopher
replied, "you see haven't got long to

place I'll 60 to when peg out, I'm trying
