Aprons r beginning to be worn

some threads in three stripes down the

the perpendicular lines. The ordinary
cotton canvas is also employed, mado

The Old Song.

The minstrel of the classic lay
OF love and wine who sings
Still found the fingers run astray
That touched the rebel strings.
OF Cadmus he would tain have sung,
OF Atreus and his line;
But all the jocund echoes rung
With songs of love and wine.
All, brothers! ! would fain have caught
Some fresher fancy's g,eam;
My truant accents find, unsought,
The old familiar theme.
Love, Love! but not the sportive child
With shaft and twanging bow,
Whose random arrows drove us wild
Some three score years ago;
Not Eros, with his joyous laugh,
The urchin blind and bare,
But Love, with spectacles and staff,
And scanty, silvered hair.
Our heads with frosted locks are white,
Our roofs are matched with snow,
But red, in chilling winters spite,
Our hearts and hearthstones glow.
Our old acquaintance, Time, drops in,
And while the running sands
Their golden thread unheeded spin,
He warns his frozen hands.
Stay, winged hours, too swift, too sweet,
And watt this message DER
To all we miss, from all we meet
On life's fast crumbling shore;
Say that to old affection true
We hug the narrowing chain
That binds our hearts-alas, how few
The links that yet remain
The fatal touch awaits them all
That turns the rocks to dust;
From year to year they brook and fall
They break, but never rust.
Say if one note of happier strain
This worn-out harp afford
One throb that trembles, not in vain
Their memory lent its chord.
Say that when Fancy closed her wings
And Passion quenched his fire,
Love, Love, still echoed from the string
As from Anacreon's Tyre!
Oliver Wendell Holmes in April Atldnti,
