Bruce Gaynor did not answer; he lit
orally could not. His tongue seemed to
cleave to the roof of bis mouth; every
drop of blood in his body stood still.
Had he sacrificed his youth and brilliant
prospects for this? The gentle Emily
had never looked so coarse and unattract-

con6dingIy to his arm with wife's sweet
confidence
And then he remembered sweet Kate
Talbot, and thought vindictively Of Ross

"He knew--he must have known that
there were two Emily Montressors,"
thought Gaynor, clenching his teeth.
He saw nae walk into the trap, and new

So he had, but unfortunately it was toe
late for this self-appreciatic to be of any
use. He was ,fely married to Miss Eni-
ly Montressor, but not to the Emily.
And Mr.. Gaynor felt, with bitter pang
Of humiliation, that his snug little piece
of diplomacy had been an utter failure.

When trouble steals with solumn tread,
YeGr steps ts follow far or near,
To share your board, to share ysur bed,
To frown upon all daily cheer
Take heart, assume a bold"r air,
And drawer than you yet have worn,
Remembering, though tho world 10 fair,
There 10 no rose without thorn.
IF Joy and peace have sunny hours,
No less hath anguish hours of gloom,
And there are weeds as well as flowers
In this long pathway TO the tomb.
Through our broad world Of care and strife
What man OF all the millions born
But learned, before the end Of life,
There is no rose without its thern?
And who shall say. though stung his breast
With panas too poignant not to sting,
That such admixture Is not best
And made with wise apportioning
For treasures that they lightly gain, ..
Most human hearts are prone to scorn;
Joy is more prscioU1 after pain,
The rose Is Sweeter for the thorn.

VERSES:
ny HARRY p. SCOTT.

Ye plsiades of the lyric world,
That sparkle bright above,
Is there within ysur strrry zone
A home for wounded lsve?
Where hearts that love like mine forget
The bitter Pangs of scorn;
Where cancellations beam SO bright,
And naught is known but morn.
Ye birds that come with aummer breath
Ger silVery sparkling seas,
From where the fragrant forest flowers,
Perfume the tropic breeze
Is there within your sunny cline
A home for weary hearts,
Where care or anguish are not known,
And sorrow does depart?
The stars look coldly down on me,
And yet make no reply;
The birds wing softly to and fro,
And zephyrs ssftly sigh.
Oh !! Heavenly Father, Thou alone
Can help my weary heart;
I'll put nay trust alsne In Thee,
Till life and breath depart.

If this is so, then the fall will have it's
share of good things without mach of ex-
ira effort on our part
OF those coming naturally into flower
at this season in the greenhouse and at
no other, may be mentioned the curious
Orchid-like flower, Trycitus grandifora.
This should now be ablaze, but will only
last short season; but as every flower
just now counts, it should by all means
be Included IN ever so small collection.
We notice the chrysanthemums are just

right varieties and the right style of

One of the best continuous flowers of
the buff color. is Saffrans, beautiful tea
rose, exquisite in the bud, and should be
used in no other way as cut flower.
For pink color, either Dlche So de
Brabrant or Bon Seine will do adm irably.
For white, Bella is good free flower,
good yellow Isabella sprout.
In fuchslas, while lingering flower or
two may still be expected of the more
snowy summer kind; the only ones worth
growing for winter is the old Speciosa

WINTER DAYS.

WINTER DAYS.
The birds have flown;
Their barren nests are left alone,
Clinging to leafless bush, or wind-tossed tree,
Msmentoes mute of spring times blue and green,
of fragrant orchards blossomng between
Brown, sun-warmed walls,
or wide-swung doors and breezy halls,
And fower-bed decked to line the drowsy bee,
But now, alas!
The blighting frost is on the grass,
Torn the withered leaves from each loved tree;
The brooks are still, the woodlands dim and cold,
And harvest fields have yielded all their gold.
o swift-wnged bird!
To that bright land where now is heard
Thy tuneful lay, I'd gladly follow thee:
Il From ozark Blue"

''The Fat Contributor says that the Gus
tom of parting the hair in the middle was
first adopted by an angry father, who, from
show of weakness on the part of his son, so
treated the hair of that youth in order to dis

The operation was complete success; for
the boy, unable to bear the stigma of looking
like girl, went straightway and hung him

mode do so, we understand, i'll the belief it
