Savannah Letter in the Baltimore American.
To ''artillery punch is due, perhaps,
the credit for even Il greater share of the
reputation which the Chatham company
eniovs than to the old brass cannon. [
personally know that the reputation of this
punch extends as far as the 10th parallel
of north latitude. EXPresident Arthur
had a bit of experience with this liquid.
which he will doubtless remember as long
as he lives Two or three years ago, it will
be remembered President Arthur, Secre-
tary Chandler and few intimate friends
came down this way on fishing excursion.
with Florida for their Objec tive point. The
lamented TallapOOSa was mOOred off Sa-
yannah. and the ChathamS went aboard to-
entertain the presidential party. Savan-
nah water is nothing extra, and there was
not much else to drink but artillery punch.
1t is the mildest and most inn0cent-lOoking
LIQUID one ever saw. 70 the eye Sunday
school-picnic lemonade is a wild. delri0us
intoyicant beside it. OF pale straw color,
and lust the slightest suggeStiveneSs in fla
yOr of lemon and rum. it is seemingly the
least pretentious of all the beverages that
claim Bacchls as godfather. But, great
Allah, how it does belle its looks and taste.
The president hid his disgust the best he
could as he drank Of the seductive punch
to his own health. Mr.. Arthur is a con-
noisseur in liquors. and there was fine,
almost aesthetic something about that punch
that Immediately captivated the president.
Chandler was rather shy of the bowl and
cautioned the president. The latter replied
that he could take wheelbarrow load of
the beverage.
The country has never known what a
close call the late administration had. The
trip had been undertaken chiefly for the
presidents health. The physicians We're
anxious and doubtful the next day. The
country wondered what had so infatuated
the presidential party with Savannah. The
truth was, the deception of unassuming
punch had got in its work on the nations
chief. He had an idea the next morning
that he was president of the whole Ameri-
can continent and good part of the rest of
the world. Careful treatment fortunately
brought him around again i'll few days,
but he has never had much to do with any
sort of punch since.

You hold me shrined apart from common
things,
And that my step, my voice can bring TO YOU
\ gladness that no other presence brings
And yet, dear love- through all the weary
days
You never speak one word of tenderness,
Nor stroke my hair nor softly clasp my hand
Within your own III loving, mute caress.
You think, perhaps should be all content
To know so well the loving place | hold
Within your life and SO You do not dream
How muck long TO hear the story told.
You cannot know, when we two sit alone
And tranquil thoughts within your mind
are stirred.
Ny heart is crying like tired child
For one fond look one gentle, loving word.
II may be when your eyes look into mine
You only say How dear sheis to me-"
Oh. could read it in your softened glance,
How radiant this plain old world would be!
Perhaps. sometimes. You breathe a secre
prayer
That choicest blessings unto me be given,
But if you said aloud, God bless thee,
/ should not ask greater boon from
heaven.
| weary sometimes of the rugged way,
But should you say, Through thee my life
Is sweet
The dreariest desert that our path could cross
Would suddenly grow green beneath my
feet.
'Tis not the borndesS waters ocean holds
That give refreshment to the thirsty flowers,
But Just the drops that, rising to the skies,
From thence descend i'll softly falling
showers. .
What matter that orr 9Tanaries are filled
With all the richest harvest's golden stores,
If we who own them cannot enter in,
But famished stand before the close-barred
doors.
And so It's sad that those who should he rich
In that true love which crowns our earthly

Go praying with white lips from day to day.
For loves sweet tokens and receive them
