they were quoted at SG0, while
the price at the end Of the month was

were easily placed at $50, de-

AN OLD GARDEN

Somewhere In tho Past so golden,
Whose sweet memories are my own,
Was garden, large aud sunny,
Filled with blossoms whence the bees
Gathered richest stores OF honey.
And the rose-shrubs grew like trees;
with fair petals round them strcwn.
sloping downward to river,
Grassy terraces were thore;
Aud great beds Of dnintlest flowers,
ransies with their purple glow,
palest woodbines wreathed In bowers:
And tho streamlct ran below,
Singing to these creatures fair
Through the blessed summer hours.
You could wander At your leisure
with deep and quiet content;
You could lose yourself In sweetness;
Hedges Of the May rose grew
with y lavish, full completeness;
And bright lllacs, stepped In dew,
Shook above your head, and bout
To each wind with very pleasure,
Softly In the vorda1t mazes
OF green walks your footsteps fell;
Aud the murmur Of the river,
Like q song of love and resi-,
Seemed to warbo on forever;
Then some bird with russell breast
startled, flew across the dell,
From It's bed among the dniscs.
Then In Autumn what treasure
OF all sweetest fruits you found
Hanging from each laden tree,
Rpcning on the sunny wall;
Aud you picked them at your pleasure,
They were free to you aud all,
As the sun and wind are free,
Scattered In rich plenty round.
Al those days Of untold sweetness,
Al, those hours OF Hope aud Rest
Who shall tell their wondrous bcautyy
WIN shall bring again the Past?
Years grow swlftor IN their flcetness,
Ana our spirits murmur sadly
That "the oldcn days were hest"
