MEETING ON THE DOWNWARD sLoFE

Two that wrecked each others hope,
Parting coldy in their prime,
Met upon the downward slope,
Taught by tears an6 calmed by time,
Under autumn's perfect trees,
Dropping bright remembrances.
There they spread their Ftories out,
Face to face and hand to hand,
Looking back with wistiul doubt,
Into the forgotten land,
Where the wheels OF llfS went fast,
Hardly seen till they we're past.
Looking where the dawn had been,
Till each gray and pallid line
Shiyers with sun unseen,
Which must meyer rise and shine,
And the Moment, lost and vain,
Comes before their souls again;
Saying softly, "YNs, think
You were there you camo at ten"
"In your hair was something pink
How hate the tint since thenl"
"IIate harmless ribhon?" "Nay,
have pardoned il to day"
81 remember what you said"
"6ut you laughed, and despaired."
"Did laugh? was afraid
Yol might think | cared"
"Be content, your pride shall be
Seathless us your heart for me-"
Something in your voice assures
You have augry feelings yet"
"S"mcthing told me then in yours
That you would not quite forget;
Just one foolish moment lit
Hore-that laugh extingushcd it."
Sure the fame was very weak!"
Twas your silence les it die"
"If mans hope will not speak,
Can woman's heart rcpl!7"
"IIad | spokou?" "Do know
1t was very long ago."
Face t. face and hand to hand,
Looking at those eastern skies,
Is the light along the land
Only borrowed from their eyes?
Can The song of birds b. drawn
From a memory Of dawE2
10, the hill, the sea, the plain,
Flushing with familiar rose!
| Look away. and look again,
But the colo! strays aud growsl

Knew you not that morn must come?

Charles Stephan Cuts Three Gasbes I'm His

Charles Stephan Cuts Three Gasbes I'm His
Throat Before lie Is Discovered.
Charles stephan, residing at AGA Poplar
street, attempted to take his life yesterday
morning between the hours of s and o o'clock
by cutting his throat with razor. He is
peddler by occupation but has been unfortu-
nate In business. His financial troubles IL is
supposed unsettled his mind. For several
days he has been acting strangely but it was
not supposed he contemplated suicide. He
got up at an early hour ON Sunday morning
and walked distance of square, wearing
only underclothes, to feed his horse. He re-
turned to the house, ate breakfast and shortly
after o'clock went to the gairet where he at
tempted to take his life. He cut three
gashes in his throat and was about cutting
another when he was discovered. The
woman employed in the house as a nurse for
his wife, heard him go up stairs, and sus-
pecting that there was something wrong,
went up stairs in time to prevent him from
inflictng the fourth wound. She gave an
alarm, physicians were summoned, and were
soon at the house and the mans wounds were
attended to. He lay all of yesterday IN n
critical condition, and to-day is not much
improved. Small hopes are entertained of
his recovery. He has been a peddler for a
number of years, and is well known through
out the county.
