Steaming Food.

not pay. 1t certainly makes them look
finer. Bella Stone of Westtield, Mass,

THE DISAPPOINTED.
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

There are songs enough for q hero.
Who dwells on the heights Of fame;
sing for the disappointed
For those who miss their aim.
sing with fearful cadence
For one who stands in the dark,
And knows that his last, best arrow
Has bounded back from the mark.
sing for the breathless runner.
The eager, anxious soul
Who falls with his strength exhausted
Almost In sight Of the goal.
For the hearts that break in silence
With q sorrow all unknown
For those who need companions,
Yet walk their ways alone.
There are songs enough for the lovers
Who fhare loves tender pain;
sing for the one whose passion
Is given, and in vain.
For those whose spirit.comrades
Have missed them on their way,
sing with heart O'erfowing,
This minor strain to-day.
And know the solar system
Must somewhere keep in space,
A prize for that spent runner
Who barely lost the race.
For the plan would be imperfect
Unless it held some sphere
That paid tor the toll and talent,
And love that are wasted here.
