IN THE STREET.
Like q breeze from q garden,
Made sweet with the scent
OF the fresh blooming lilacs,
She came and she went
Pure spirit and vision,
Felt rather than known,
Fain would I have held her
Aud made her my p"h
But as the unconscious
Rreeze blesses and gees,
So went she, more blessing
Aud blest than she knows.
IN TIE GARDEN.
When lilacs We're in blossom,
And all the air was sweet,
l saw her standing tiptoe
Upon u garden.seat;
One hand drew down the clusters,
The other bent q spray,
Held 1t little minute,
And let it slip away.
I ilacs, your life is heightened,
But you've missed the very best,
The best brief life os&ying
And dying on her breast
TILL DAY-BREAK.
Away to her, fresh morning breeze,
Uplift and blow aside
Her snowy curtain, and with ease
Approach her undenied.
And lightly kiss her mouth and eyes,
And lightly lift her hair,
And blow about her where she lies
This scent that fills the air,

The Toast and Health Drinking Humbug.

Healths and toasts were special tor
neutrality-suspicious. which cannot now be
conceived. Every glass during dinner
-reQuii ed to be dedicated to the health of
some one. 1t was thought scottish and rude
to take wine without this, as if, forsooth {!
there was nobody present worth drinking
with vas present, about 1903, when
the late Duke of Buccleuch took a glass of
sherry by himself at the table of Charles
Hope, then the Lord Advocate this was
noticed afterwards'as piece of ducal con-
tempt. And the person asked to take wine
was not invited by anything. so slovenly
as look combined with q putting of the
hand upon the bottle, as is practised by
near neighbors now. 1t was a much more
serious affair. For one thing, the wine was
very rarely on the table. 1t had to be
called for, and, in order to let the servant
know to whom lie was to carry it, the caller
was obliged to specify his partner aloud.
All this required some generalization and
courage. Hence timid men never ventured
on SO bold step at all, but were glad to
escape by only drinking when they were
invited. As this ceremony was mark of
respect, the landlord, or any other person
who thought himself the great man, was
generally graciously pleased to perform it
to every one present but he aud others
were always at liberty to a bridge the sever
.ity of the duty by performing it by platoons.
They took brace, or two brace of ladle 8,
or. Of gentlemen, or of both, aud got them
all engaged at once, and p1oclaiming to
the stdeboaId IA glass OF sherry for
Miss Dundas, Mrs. Murray, and MISS Hope,
and glass of port for NJ. Hume, and one
for me-" he slew them by -coveys. Aud
all the parties to the contract were bound
to acknowledge each other distinctly. No
node, or griDs, or Indifference, but dir
ect look at the object, the audible utter
ing Of the very words, "Your good health, !"
accompanied by respectful inclihation
Of the head, gentle attraction Of the
right hand towards the heart, and graft
fed smile. And after all these detached
pieces of attention during the feast were
over, no sooner were the tables cleared
aud the after dinner glasses set down,
than it became necessary for each person
folio owing the landlord, to drink the healt b
of every other person present individually.
Thus, where there were ten people, there
were ninety heaIths drunk. This cere
mouy was often slurred over by the bash
full, who were allowed merely to look the
benediction, but usage compelled them to
look distinctly, and to each individual.
To d" this we'll required some grace, con-
seqneutly it was Gest done by the polite,
RULED, and FILLED gentlemen of the olden
time. This prandiAl nuisance was hUrri-
BILE. But it was nothing to what iolIo wed ;
