725. Charade, by T. NJ. s.:
Ny ears were TUNED by the ceaseless roar
! OF commerce passing from shore to Shore
! I'd me down in throne-iike spot
| Viewing the rich products, though | owned them
| not.
! Half passed f,,ll speed at forty an hour,
| Half steamed 10 and fro with resistless power
! But both great burdens were onward marched
| Over or through my wonderful arch.
Cut me in ivory first is an art
| The usefu and fine | combine in part;
| While many spend years TO do me Alright,
The OK is an expert with his shoulders OF might.
Next is well braced in the rivers side,
And ages vast chasns | override
| l am part Ot q motel part of the race;
! Surely, whole You'll in these outlines trace.
1876. Crossword Enigma, by Casper:
My first is in spear, but not in lance;
Ny second IN polka, not in dance
My third is IN elk, and also in deer;
! My fourth is in quaint, but not in queer;
My fifth is in shower, not in rain
My sixth is in ache, but not in pain;
My seventh is in writer, not in poet;
The whole's just mentioned-Ah, you know it.
I IT,. H., Dill. IA,
Gated to Hattie Heath)
OF all the families OF the earth none dare with us
compare
All others are but secondares, for we the gems do
! wear.
We fin amid tine balmy air in varied beauties dyes,
| While beamng Sol is shedding forth his radiance
from the skies;
| But when his robes from withdraw and sinks
into the west
We from your sight will vanish too, and seek some
lonely rest.
In sprit 9time we will first appear wi h arms white
Til summer brighten all that is dull, then our gay
est coats wear;
The -irest belle far excel in satin gay or silk
fine,
Or the royal " shah in his cody dress when dia-
nouds make him shine;
/ But autumn changes all our forms-then We are
reptiles Of the nation,
! Mean dirty, nasty, locust-hle, destroying vege-
tation,
TIL winter ellis us to retreat INTO cur lonely cell
Where IN trance we viii lie till spring again breaks
forth the spell.
We live, We die, eat, We fly, we creep. we sleep,
! We have head, horns, wings and TAIL AID a watch
full eye We keep;
| We change with every season, but summer surely
| proclaim.
| From all We have sail you must now have easily
found cur name
answers TO Correspondents and Correct
| Solutions.
Trinity-7Il. ia. Us, ZIG (good), 7lS.
Trinity adds these lines after saying that
| us is intricate, and that the author de.
serves praise: '70l (Barbecuel can GER
tainly be called right, but 1 don't think it
can compare with 7I8, BAR BE CUE.
If you add half Of BE to BAR you make
it BARE, and at ''bare" BAR no one
can get drunk; but add the other half,
making it BARB, you have weapon that
causes death very often-to fish. 703, as
given, evidently is wrong 1t is minus 8
and has two SIS. l think it can be cor
rected, bnt it requires too much applica-
ton for Trinity"
Rose-7O5, 7O6, 7OS, 100, 10, ia, III,
us. Rose says: Somehow my reversed
words " appear in more pulling shape
than l intended. Please state that the
last four also give boys nicknames. The
answer to 70l tbarbecue) cannot be incor-
rect, think. Now mean to growl bit
at your solution given my charade to Hat
tie Heath-G99 "Spring flowers" A rose
is summer flower" but we prefer it by
its own proper name; SO, therefore, when
| wrote that charade for H. H. it was to
remind her of the trailing arbutus, ;"
which every Yankee knows and delights in,
commonly called '"May flower"
Trinity, receive my thanks, for you,
Superior to the mass OF men,
Give honor where IT'S due
And above the scepter, sword or pen
CAS- loyal subject, well coutent),
Place "petticoat government"
The trouble about Roses "May flower :"
was that the answer did not accompany
500, and hence twas guess work-and, by
the way, not SO bad
