How long has he reigned? Since the world was begun
And his reign will endure till its glories DONE
There's nothing so wonderful under the sun,

How cherished your bondage DER all earthly gains,

Whose subjects abjectly kneeled at his feet
Whose rule was dear and whose thraldom sweet,
As this one who says nothing but goo"

FOR TIE LITTLE FOLKS.
The Young Artist,

Our Bessie drew something quite quickly and well,
But what was intended could nobody tell
It not dog, and it not a cat,
So she gave it tail and she called it rat.
But the tail was so funny we all had to laugh,
Then she rubbed it all out and she next drew calf.
The calf, all told her, much like a sheep,
Or pig half awake, goat half asleep.
And never artist in greater distress,
Nor more perseverng, than poor little Bess,
Her fence crooked her trees too straight
Her house always toppled half the gate,
Her windows were never alike in their size
She couldn't right for the tears in her eyes.
But uncle and aunty bought her rule
And book and pencil, and sent her to school,
And the dear little artist is learning well,
That her pigs from her cows you easily tell.

tMaQuann.N

Like some lost barque, deep waterlogged at sea,
A crow drifts down before the slantng rain;
The lakes pulse, beating slow, but ceaselessly,
Throbs on the shore like some tired heart in pain
Two ride within the shade of dark-pluIned pines
That stand like knights at solemn obsequies
When some still heart goes slowly down the lines
That lead to quays which border unknown seas.
Oh, throb of waves, and cav of struggling crow!
Oh, autumn eolors vanished by the rain
What thoughts were theirs but One can surely know
Who reads the hearts barometer of pain.

Enthroned.

The queen sits on her throne in royal state,
Piercing the yellow misty, sultry light
Above the lower folds of amber haze,
CLEAN her towers, domes and steeples white.
Her feet upon a foaning carpet rest
The waters of the sea in frothy green
Roll back and forth at her impatient touch
Perhaps DER some frail bark. What cares tn
queenl
And high above the throne sits one of grano
And kingy mein, triumphant all the day.
He smiles upon the queen with dazzling glance
High beats her pulses tide in rapturous sway.
Now YEARLY, like any other monarch,
Tired of the light that wins him constancy,
He turns his face unto the west and thinks
OF fairer queens, beyond the realms of sea.
Then rising, shakes his mantle DER the spires.
They on the highway opal mist,
As orange, purple, red and emerald
Reflect from myriad points by cloudlets kissed.
He stands moment thus, then passes through
The portals that his pages open fling;
He enters-the waters darken while in
The light of amethyst soft lingering,
He turns and waves his hand in gracious
Farewell to the queen; and 10! the summer night
Shoots DER the waters one long flaming line,
That circles round her feet in yellow light,
As if, when dying, feeling some remorse,
He turns to give his love just one more SMILE
In hope that il will make some memory sweet,
Or that her doubt may rest in trust awhile.
The queen sits silent while the tide GIBBS slow;
For, being queen, and daughter of old
And ancient line, how could she know that some
There are who wear the semblance of pure gold
She draws her robes arornd and looks out Ger
Her realm; city wrapped in silence deep,
Whose grandeur, in repose, rival knows;
But yet doth not contentment bring with sleep.
For the queen is restless in her dreaming;
'Long live the king" she hears hoarse voices ring.
She steps out in the pale dawns pearly gray
Behold! the portals open to the king.
The city rises as to greet
One who darkness change to warm, glad light;
That he has come again-it is enough.
twill be thus aye, throughout the cycles flight.

An Autumn Rhyme.

When the breath of March was keen,
And the woods were brown and bare
Covered from the cruel air
In tangled bed of green,
Violets grew unplucked, unseen;
Sweet and meet to wreathe your hair,
If II only could have been.
But Loves heart and hope were strong,
And he smiled, and whispered low:
when the summer roses blow,
And the summer swallows throng,
Though little while be long,
She will come at last to know,
She will take our flowers and song"
Now encroaching sunset shows
That the year hath turned his face
Unto failure and disgrace.
BIoeding mists and beating SHOWS,
And along the garden rows
Leaf and petal fall apace,
And with each poor hope goes.

Besides the articles mentioned last week as be-

the fancy bags now SO popular, and designed to
carry the opera-g glass in. Bags cut in the form
of the opera glass case are pretty, made of blue
satin or plush, with the initials or monogram of
the owner embroidered upon it. Or they may
be made in the style of the old-fashioned work
bag, only they should be small of course and
upon each piece should be embroidered pretty
design. One made of white satin is elegant,
with pink satin strings and different styles of
embroidery on each piece.
