with monogram Of silver lilies of the

scroll, went to her desk, SIT down, and

good deal about the bliss that enters the
feminine soul when the monentons ques-

but | believe that in actual life the lady
generally feels quite rs uncomfortable as
the gentleman. which is saying much.
Horatio Burleigh bad certainly made
great progress in Kitty's good graces,
but he had, as she said, spoken too soon,
and she was frightened.
After awhile, however, she began to
realize the fact that if he had not pro-
posed at some date, she would have
been very much surprised and very
sorry. She liked him, yes she really
thought she loved him, and she would
of course be happy as his wife.
Once more she seated herself at her
desk and prepared to indite an accept

liked so much, and who, as he averred,

DEAD.

"She is dead ~ they said to him. "Com,
away;
Kiss her and leave her-thy love is clayi"
They smoothed her tresses of dark brown
hair;
On her forehead of stone they laid it fair;
Over the eyes which gazed too much,
They drew the lids with gentle touch
The sweet, Thin lips that had secrets to tell ;
About her brown and beautiful face
They tied her veil and her marriage lace
And drew on her white feet the white silk
shoes
Which were the whitest, no eye could choose
Come away" they said, "God underestimate
And there was silence, and nothing there
But silence, and scents of eglantere,
And jasmine, and roses, and rosemary,
And they said, "As lady should lie, lies
She"
And they held their breath as they left the
With shoulder, to glance at its stiffness and
gloom.
But he who loved 100 well to dread
The sweet, the stately and beautiful dead
lie lit his lamp and took his key
And turned it. Alone again-he and she.
He and she; yet she would not speak,
Though he kissed in the old place. the quiet
check.
He and she but she would not smile,
Though he called her the name she loved
erewhle.
He and she; still she did not move
To aGy passionate whisper Of love.
Then he said, 'Cold lips and breast without
breath,
Is there no voice2 no language of death
"Dumb TO the ear and still 10 the sense,
But TO heart aud soul distinct, intense2
"See now; will listen with soul, not ear
What was the secret of dying, dear2
"Was it the infinite wonder of all
That You ever could let ife's flower fall2
"Or was it the greater marvel to feel
The perfect calm Owe the agony steal
"Was the miracle greater to find how deep
Beyond all dreams sank downward that sleep
'Did life roll back its record, dear2

"And was it the innermost heart of the bliss
To find out so, what a wisdom love is?

! hold the breath Of my soul to hear
81 listen rs deep as to horrible hell,
AS high as to heaven, and you do not tell
