lawyers for the widow have been allowed

cessful attorneys are to receive these e1-
orbitant fees, it is fair to assume that the con-
testant's counsel will be pnid still more iber-

teach the widow and the two sons to with

DAY DREAMS.

Down by the brook where the lilies grow,
And the murmuring waters gently dow,
Two maidOns fair sat hand In hand,
with their dainty feet on the silver sand.
To each maiden's fancy bright visions came
One dreamed Of lover, the other Of fame,
The blue eyes beamed with tender light,
The black eyes flashed with conscious might.
Dream on, dream on, sweet maidsns fair,
with the dusky braids and the golden hair,
May trouble henceforth be forgot,
And joy, not sorrow, be your lot. 4..t.t.-
Years pass. Tho brightest laurel leaves,
Fame for the dark haired maiden weaves,
Her dreams are fulhlld, were they ever so bright,
And the black eyes st fash with their wOnted light.
But the other, alasl in the churchyard dim
The golden head lies unheeIful Of him
Who smiled In her dreams by the brooklet's wave,
Who weeps for the lost love over her grave.

Wisdom wiiled II 20 that wo may not know

With the falling night cometh frost and blight
Health and wealth ft-tlmes have wings.
We may never trust In OF dust,
Or seek the futures key;
For our fading sight may not view its light
Till we launch on that shOrsless sea,
Eternity.
To-day they have laid in his grave, nev-made,
great statesman, brave and true;
And rich died, in his stately PRIDE
What are these to me and your

Ere the reaper's work is done,

To the goal by cages woR,-

An, my lady fair, with those jewels rare. .t. |..
And that scornful step of pride,
Why that naughty mien Of cold disdsini
Is the reaper, death, deaed,
Think not he will stay for your finer clay
His hand he is laying low
Legions strong, each day, you will fall as they,
By his swim, unerring blow
When, none may know.
The poet may bring his pure Offering
To grace the feast of to-day,
But the years will fall, as a darkening pail,
And obscure his sweetest lay,
Every song that's sung has for ages rung,
For We are as those Of yore;
We awake and sleep, we rejoice and weep,
And are thinking the old thoughts oer-
ForevernOre.
Could we only look in the sealed book
Ofthe future we should stand
With sickenIng dread with our hearts as lead
And nerveless, palsied hand.
1t Is surrey we'll that we cannot tell
What IL ours In store 10 bear;
We could not have smiled on that lovely child,
For the seeds of death are there
But o, how fair
What mist Is life with what changes rife
There are fewer joys than woes;
For the fair, sweet flower than is mine this hour
May soon be q withered rose.
So we early bear our weight Of CARE
Too early taste Of sorrow,
With dull unrest that Is all uublcst
We wait the coming morrow.
All tomorrow.

For all Ills flowing, rich mercy showing,
