Maggie Denne was standing on the
terrace in the rectory garden at Whites

Young man came close and gently
placed his hands over his blue eyes.
"Frank, how dare you!" she ex-
claimed. "let me 60 this Instant"
The hands were Immediately with

half angrily, to encounter the rude dis

"Why, Algy, is it you? How did

added; "papa will be so glad, and

1t was indeed a fair scene upon which
his eyes rested. The blue waters of the
BAY were fecked with foam, as the
brisk breeze met the restless sea on the
flood-tide. Till now, Maggie had in
vain sought for token in the vessel,
and with shaded eyes had watched the
wide expanse at times almost despair

The black streak grew more and more
defined; long trail Of smoke extended
far across the blue distance.

Together walked meath bright or somber

Our path made ever gay by hope and joy,
Thy beauteous, white winged doves, that
tame, yet coy
Fluttered and played around us ceaselessly,
Perched on thy hand or shoulder lovingly;
Then in the blue above would soar and dip,
And then return to feed from out thy lip.
Thou vast grave compan1on-passing fair
Thy brow and eyes, but thy sweet smlle 700
rare.
And unto me, perchance, thou'st scarcely
Too Kind and fond friendl Hast thou not
moved
NV eager soul with promises, that brought
How many a golden dream and happy
thought,
Yet never knew fulfllment-all too vain
In air had vanished when looked again?
But vet what could'st thou more? wherefore
chide thee?
Didst thou not give me all thou hadst for

And now the hour has come for us TO paft

Thou canstnot even leave thy birds, to bless

How dark shall be the path where must go
Alone henceforward, only God may know
Kiss me once more, Sweet one last long EN-

One lingering look upon thy fading face,
And then farewell-nor cast one glance be-

A BABYS SMILE.

As through the busy street pass,
Often in sun or rain,
mark some pleasant household group,
Behind the window-pane;
The mother is politely blind,
The father does not see,
But if note baby there,
The baby smiles at me.
Dear sinless soul of babyhood!
She does not coldly wait
To ass about my bank account,
Or bonds, or real estate,
With small soft face against the pane,
And dove like coo the while,
She beckOns with her dainty hand,
And answers back my smile.
She does not scorn my glance because
She never heard my name,
Nor query of my social place,
Nor question whence | came;
No tedious rule of etiquette
Restraints her loving grace,
Or chills the winning smile that lights
Her lovely wildflower face.
She knows me by that nameless sense,
That wisdom sweet and fine,
Which babies have ere time has spoiled
Their innocence divine;
That strange, unerring magnetism
Which some kind angel Sends,
BY which all sinless things perceive
And recognize their friends;
Which draws the pigeons to my hand,
Fearless and trustfnl still,
Which makes the social sparroWs crowd
My friendly window-si
The silent sympathy. which makes
The homeless dog | meet
Forget his hungry lonesOmeness
TO lawn about my feet.
All though the world seems full, some
times,
OF darkness and of dust,
The soul is not quite dcsolate
Which birds and babies trust;
Life is not at all a wilderness,
Made up of grief and guile,
While eyes so shadOwlcSs and sweet
Smile back to eyes that smile!
