WHEN DAY MEETS NIGHT.

Out to the west the spent day kisses night
And with one parting glow of passion dies
In gold and red a woman's wistlul eyes
Look out across the hills, a band of light
Plays OH her parted hair, there softly dwels,
And throws glory DER her girlish dream
The sheep slow nestle down beside the stream
And cattle wander with their tinkling bells.
The clouds. sun-aush'd, cling round the day
decline
The woman's eyes grow tender; shadows
creep
Gold turns to gray; Il sharp dividing line
Parts earth and heaven. AdOwn the western
height
The calm cold dark has kiss'd the day to
sleep;
The wistful eyes look out across the night.

We don't use small tin and
want everybody to know it
The reason why we don't is
that if you have small tin put
on yourroofthe more seams you
will have and the more leaks
will be in your roof. Cali on
us and we will prove to you
that large tin is the best to put

REBUhED.

Once, on a summer day,
Far from the beaten way,
Some fairy bade me stray
Cupid, mayhap.
Under leafy tree,
Whom should chance TO see,
Whom, but my Rosalie,
Taking a nap
There in n lovely nook.
Screened from intruder's look,
Near her neglected book,
Slumbering she lay.
What could a fellow do?
Tell me, sir, wouldn't you
kneel and take one or two
Kisses away?
All, but broke the spell
Opened her eyes, and-well,
Could do else thar tell
How il was broke?
Humbly for grace plead
Stcrnly she shook her head;
Couldn't you wait" she said
Till awoke? ."
