THE GREAT GRANDMOTHER


Bring flowers, for back to kindred dust.
We give our dead today;
Bring flowers. upon along-tried heart
In toil-vorn hands to lay
But not for her the florists art
Shah heap the sweet regret,
OF fpensy aad heiiotrope.
Tea-rose and rnignonette-
The lrosts Of more than ninety years
Have tleached the locks ofeold
That lay upon her mothers knee
In many a shining fold,
When she, 50 wrinkled now, and gray,
Knelt. at the twinkiing fair,
A little rosy, dimpled child,
And learned her earliest prayer
0fthose who watched her infant years,
Or shared her childish play,
Or knew her girlhood,s hopes and fears,
Not one is here to-day.
Nor is there Of that Latter group.
She raw about her bloom,
one left to weep beside her bier.
Or lay her in the tomb.
But still her old home stands embowere'
In fragrant locust trees
The sweet-brier that her father trained
still sweetens every breeze
The rose trees that she used to teAi
y Beside the door step grow,
And grass-p pinks load the ealmy air
With hints of long ago.
Across the wall the pleasant wood
Wherein her girlhood strayed.
Still breathes its wealth Of fragrance on
Still spreads its cooling shade
There, haply, meath the oderoas pines
Her early dsou1 OF love
Made weeter All the woodland scents,
And charmed atresh the grove
Then bringthe bayberry and the fern
The locust's heavy plume,
The brier rose and the cinnamon
In the old beds that bloom.
Bring spicy pinks' and liIiies sweet
Beside the wall that blow
Such lilies as that garden knew
A hundred years ag1
Fragrant with loving deed and word
And old time eourtesies,
Her life its fitting emblem found
In foxers such as these;
A life whose quiet modest bloom
We knew but in decay n
The lingering sweetness Of a rose
Slow witheriRg away.
Apart from all the loved in youth,
She ends her pilgrimage.
This face We hide. 70 US has been
Always the face Of age
But mindful of her early home,
Her girlhoOd's sunny hours,
We lay upon the aged breast,
The dear, oId-iashioued flowers

Tne Writes 90 Kentucky Candidates.


The best story. We think, illustrat-
ing the wiles Of Kentucky candi-
dates, Is that reported OF Lazarus
Powell and Humphrey Marshall,
wLen running for Governor OF Ken
tucky. They were stunping the
State together. One night they stop
ped at the house of a man who con-
trolled the politics Of the county in
which be lived and whose spinster
sister notoriously controlled him
Being like the considerable Miss
Sumu.erYille in %Adouis, a simple
mountain maid, she did the milking
herself and the housework general
ly. Both candidates did their best
to please her. Early in the morn
ing after the night in question, Mar
shall arose, and seeing the lady
milking q COW near the house, he
broke off the branch Of tree and
began brushing the flies off the an
inal with much effusion- After
several agreeable words had been
exchanged he remarked that he did
not see his friend Powell around
and supposed he was sleeping late.
~Oh." rejoined the quiet sarcastic
woman, Mr.. Powell has been up
and about this half hour, and | sent
him back O. the barn where he's
holding the other calf" Marshall
never wholly understood the remark,
but Powell received the vote OF that
county.
