few days ago and brought it home and
laid it in the favorite big rocking-chaiF
of his daughters lover. The chair was
close by the fire and by the time the
witching hour Of night had come the
hornets had reused up, rubbed their
eyes and passed pleasant remarks with
one another on the early arrival of
spring. The young man came in di-

and with his eyes upon his loved one,
parted his coat tails gracefully and sunk
solidly down into the big rocking-chair,
as he was wont to do. For one brief
moment his face was covered with a
blank, bewildered expression, and then
he arose with a yell that awoke the

On the lips that he had pressed
In their bloom;
