Yes, 1t was my fault let yon 60.
And sent your letter in torn fragments back;
I little thought that would miss you So
memory OF the past, you're but tosture-rack!
Q how 1ongel the old pet name to hear:
But yon were learning to forget me, dear,
And quickly going from my life, we'll as sight
Just ~ rich sunset-glow dssolves in gray OF night
No! mol not inconstant, but unjust OWL,
For, darling, mad with jealousy I'd grown;
And You-we1l, yon were angry, and did not hear
tho CRY,
So full OF pain and anguish, under the stormy sey
Althoueh between our lives the gull, Lies deep and
wide,
Ono pleading little word would bring me to your

But some time you, perhaps, will learn to rcsch
ncross-
Then will clasp you closer for the present loss.

THE RAIN.

All day long the rain IS dropping,
Beating 'gainat the windoW-pa
On tine cottage-roof It's pouring,
In the garden. In the lane.
l am nausing where the firelight
Throws its shadows Tn the wall,
Dreaming, while with patter steady
On my heart the rain-drups fall,
Waking with their saddening music
Voices from the years long fed:
Ever thus, since early childhood,
Rain-drops bring me back my dead.
On through all the lights and shadows
Of life of four-scoze years,
Memory, blessed spirit, wanders,
Now In smiles, and now In tears,
Treading with her noiseless footstep
Through the ever changing past;
Laden now with trophies many,
Back TO me she comes II last.
Childhood dreams, and girlhood fancies
Flooded DER with rad1ance bright;
Woman's hopes and aspirations,
Glowing with more mellow light;
Years when Love made Earth Heaven,
Years when Sorrow bowed the heart,
Failures, trlumphs, strangely blended,
In my varied Past have purt~
" hlch are dearest, which most happy,
OF thesc many checkered yeaEs:.
We're they times when woman. victor,
Won BY prayerful toll and tears!
Or, when in the scene Of splendor,
Dazzling ere with all Its light,
There, mid beauty. Wit, and talent
uers shone brightest Of the bt,yhtl
All me! mol linger longest
On the time when sunny youth
Threw the guisc OF Fancy's tgure
Der tho form uf sober Truth;
When the love that fond hearts yielded
Filled with sunshine all my days,
And no selfish. worldly feeling
Din,nlcd lhe brightness Of the rays.
Yes: these were the dearest moments
That my long, long life e'er knew.
Friends anu joys Of happy girlhoodi

lucky susceptibility, anyhow.
The boys cut new way to the water, and,
after deal Of t1oundering among the water

and ran against small bcayer-dam, which
had to be knocked to pieces to
give lis passage. A mile beyond
was rocky rapids, where the water tumbled
over the stones in 4 stream barely wide enough
for q canoe, and this passage was so tortuous
and SO denscly bordered and oyernung with

across, that We thought we had now come to
