A gap in the crowd, and IL moment we
stand
Face to face and hand clasped in hand,
While our eyes, that arc light with a
soulful beam,
Awaken in mine own an answering
eleam
But moment-then not knowing whth-
or we'cr bound,
As the human tide that is surging around
Rolls between, we rush on with the hur-
rying throng,
And our friendship is but soon forgot
ten song,
Sweet while it lasted, but soon forgot
A flower that has fadetl-a dream that is
not.
A flrmer hold, and stronger clasp,
A kindlier smile, and hcartier grasp
And the crowd might have swept un-
needed by,
But who was to give it-you or [?
So sweetness is gone from our lives,
and the flower
Whose beauty has gladdened us many
an hour
Lies dead, and the dream that we might
have made true
Like shade has fled. Who is to blame
or you?
Ah, the world is so wide, and day by
day,
We drift from each other still farther
away
So many around us with smiling ap.
plause
That seemingly safes us, we never pause
To think of a friendship that might have
been,
Till worldwide distance lies between,
And the tide has turned, and stranded
alone
On the bare bleak shore We wearily
moan
For the love we let pass rs unhocdei by;
Then who is the sadder-you OF ?

When the minister rang the bell
there was some delay in answering

permitted him to hear from the in

TOMS ENGAGEM ENT,

Old Mr.. MolyneuX was immense
ly proud of his position rs the coun-
try magnate He lived in a fcudal
castle which he had bought chcaply
having taken over at the same time
the good will, so to speak, of its
former owners social influence and
dignity. In consideration Of his
great wealth his neighbors charita-
bly, ignored the fact that his father
had been Il small trldesman, and
that he himself had carried on IL lu-
crative business in the hardware
line for many years. He was not
n bad fellow, his vulgarity being OF
subdued and inollcnsive kind,
and consequently he was received
in the best country society. But he
aspired to even greater distinction,
for his pet project was to marry his
only son, Tom, to one of the Earl OF
Lanburnum's daughters. There
seemed no reason why this auspic-
ious event should not come about,
for Lady Florence looked kindly
upon Master Tom, and his lordship
had limited more than once hinted
that he would raise no objection.
Lord Laburnum was the lord-lieu-
tenant of the county, and an alli-
ance with his family meant admis-
sion into the most aristocratic cir
Gle.
Unfortunately, Master Tom was
rather scapegrace, and his father
preferred to let him see little OF
the world before revealing the high
honors that were in for him. The
tact was that Tom showed no predi-
lection whatever for the Lady Flor
ence, and he was just at that demo,
cratic age when youth is apt tc
underrate social advantages. The
old man hoped that when Tom had
had his fling he would begin to
awake to the responsibility of his
position and be amendable to rea-
son. He knew that Tom was rails
ing very respectable crop of debts
and that before long his paternal
assistance would be sought. When
the crisis arrived he intended to
take advantage of the lads embar,
easements to impose conditions.
Meanwhile, as Tom seemed to have
given his heart rowing commission
there was no apparent danger of his
seriously comprising his affections.
One day, however, the young
man came down from town, where
he was ostensibly studying for the
bar, and with very grave and de
termined air announced that he was
engaged to be married. Old Mr.
Molyneux nearly had a fit of appo
plexy on the spot, and when Ton
proceeded to state that the young
lady earned her own living by car
rying on the business of Il dress.
maker at the West End, his horro
and Indignation knew no bounds
In vain Tom pleaded that Miss Fa.
bian was lady by birth and educa
ton, and that the poverty of he
family was her only crime. Hi
father became more and more fur
ious, until Tom showed symptom
of fiat rebellion.
Think of your position in tn
country !" cried old Mr.. Molyneux
perceiving this, and wisely making
an effort to control himself. 81 vii

BUSINESS.

It is, we think, getting plainer and plaine1 that the business situation is improving There may not immediately be any very pro nounced activity in business, but there are many indications that it is coming. A good
 foundation for it has been prepared. Pro
 duction has been curtailed in tie various de-
 partments of manufacturing, and stocks have
 been largely. reduced; liquidation and fail
 ures have done their painful, but necessary,
 work, and a reduction in the price of labor has relieved the employer of a portion of the strain which he has long borne alone. These things will probably soon make themselves powerfully felt.
 One of the most interesting facts connected with the depression from which business has long been suffering is that the shrinkage in prices has been much greater than in 1878 and '79. Wheat went g per cent. lower in 1884 than six years ago and flour 25 per cent lower. Sugar is 25 per cent. lower than was ever known before and Rio coffee 38 per cent lower. Cotton and wool have been Il per cept. lower than during the previous depres- sion and print cloths have gone to 20 per cent. below the bottom prices of 197S.- Nails have been lower than six years ago by 12 per cent, steel rails by 40 per cent, copper 33 per cent, lead g per cent, and tin plates 13 per cent. Beef and mutton, on the con- trary, have remained at two to two and half cents 2 pound higher than in 1s7S-9 Lard, butter, cheese and tobacco have main tained relatively high prices. Highly spe- cialized farm products have suffered less than anything else.
 There is room for ''good rise" in most articles of commerce, and the courageous men who start in first will have chance to get the greatest benefit. It is impossible that the present low prices should continue much longer.
