The Familiar E'ly.

He has returned. He generally returns about
this time, or little earlier and if he would re-
turn once or twice and then stop, one could stand
him. But he never has le lrnel the habl, of stop
ping when once he begins making calls He
first settles down gently ON your forehead, and
begins tour of personal inspection. You inform
him, by gentle waive OF the hand, that your
fronts is in good order and up to legal require
menis, and he retires lis but for a moment.
He suddenly notices something unusual about
the confguration of your chin there is a dlmple
there which he hadn't seen before, and he re-
turns to point it out to you, with all six OF his
ticklcsOme feet al once With sudden and ex-
pressive gesture of your right hand you give him
to understand that you know all about that chin
and don't want any further information on
the subject. Even a boOk-agent would be
discouraged at this second rebuff Not so that
interchangeable fly He wthdlaws for an instant
to some unknown coign Of vantage, when the
W de field for exploration afforded by your ear
catches his inquiring cluster of eyes, and he
again alights. Your patience is well nigh worn
out, and you reach for that explorer " it'll an al
most venomous vigor. You feel his wings brush
your hand as he promptly stands from under,
and your ear is fiattened against your head with
force that calls to mind the days of child
hood, when your teacher boxed you for playing
hockey" No less enthusiastic investigator than
fly would return after such a narrow escape,
and even a fly would hesitate, could he know the
dark revenge you have planned You smother
your fury and wait patiently, determined this
time to keep cool and efeclually lay for" that
fly. You begin to think he does not intend to
reiu m, whcn-zip-thc abominable little brute
has flown into your nose and out again before
you can say say scat and, after desperate
succe ssion OF sneezes, you proceed to say some
very hard things about that fly, while he sits
compacently on the corner of the bookcase
rubs his hind legs together, and smiles with the
satisfied air OF one who has performed his duty
in spite OF difficulties

There are faded faces we sometimes zee,
Haloed in beautiful mystery.
Ay, even though every trace marked there
Were the sygnet Of sorrow, the seal Of care
Often DER all beautiful grace
Covers the lines Of the faded face
After the bloom Of the fragrant rose,
The petals fall as the summer goes,
And the tree sinks back to its winter sleep
In the valleys the germs Of spring time keep
But il there were never blossom more
We could think OF the blooms that often before
Gladdened our eyes rs the seasons came.
The breast might ill with shame, with shame,
II we saw not beauty In leaves now dull
That were once pan Of the eautiful.
We should wish the tree would long be green,
Though the blessing blossoms more were seen
We should hold 1t part OF our HEARTS blest store
Even il bloomed it nevermore.
And every true heart should have place
To keep the bloom Of 4 faded face,
For love and fancy to paint sublime
With the perfect tnts Of an ol len time
