POETRY.
Cold and Quiet.
BY JEAN INGELOw.

BY JEAN lNGELOH
Cold, my dear, cold and quiet,
In their cups on yonder lea
Cowslips fold the brown bees diet
So the moss enfoldeth thee
"Plant me, plant me, o love, a lily flower,
Plant at my head, pray you green tree 90. tba
And when our children Sleep" she slgneu' 9s 'Ae
And when the lily blossoms, o, come out to mei'
Lost my DEAR lost nay deepest
Love is that which loseth least,
Through the night time while thou sleepest
Still watch the shrouded east,
Near thee, near thee, my wife that aye liveth,
LOST is no word for such a love as mine
Love from her past to me a present gveth
And love itself doth comfort, making pain divine.
Rest my dear rest. Fair showeth
That which was, and not in vain.
Sacred have kept, God knoweth
Loves last words atween us twain
'Hoid by our past, my only love, my lover
Fall not, but rise o love by loss of me!'
Boughs from our garden, white with bloom hang
Love- now the children slumbsr, come out to thee.
THE Royal Humane Society of London has
issued the following instructions: Avoid
bathing within two hours after a meal; when
exhausted by fatigue or from any other cause !:
when the body is cooling after perspiration I;
and altogether in the open air if, after having
been a short time in the water, there is a
sense of chilliness with numbness of the
hands and feet. Battle when the body is
warm, provided no time is lost in getting into
the water. Avoid chilling the body by sitting
or standing undressed on the blnks or in
boats after having been in the water. Avoid
remaining too long in the water-leave the
water Immediately there is the slightest feeling
of chilliness. The vigorous and strong may
battle early in the morning ON an empty stom-
ach. The young and those who are weak
had better battle two or three hours after a
meal-the best time for such is from two to
three hours after breakfast. Those who are
subject to attacks of giddiness or faintness,
and those who suffer from palpitation and
other sense of discomfort at the heart should
not bathe without first consulting their medi-
cal adviser.
