And we went to smashin' apples for mouth
or more or less.
l would work and lug the apples all the live
long day, and then
In my dreams at night I'd hear the cider
drippin' out again!
But tell you was happy when the whole
thing was through,
And Bill and went visitin' with nothin'
else to do.
And the way we used that cider was aston

For my Lizzie wouldn't touch it, leavin' all
to Bill and me!
But there was one bar'l that stood there that
we never touched at all,
ana IL got so strong that one day il strolled
up to make a call.
And one mornin' In pertickler that old cider

Waiting.

From Longman's Magazine
When ALI the happy woods and hills
Are tlied with summers melodies,
When the cold hand of winter stills
The ripping streams, the whispering tree.
My heart unchanged sings still one song,
"hy love, my love-" the whole year long.
For all the mystery of life,
The hope of dawn, the nights despair,
The greed Of gam, the lust of strife.
And grinding want and gnawlng care.
Lie drowned beneath the sunlit sea
OF my great ioy-she loves me.
The summer winds that come and 70,
Laughing about the shady ways,
The waters in their ebb and flow

Love mocks at time, love laughs ut fatew

In any place, on anv day,
From out the sunsets crimson flame,
Or down the mornings mist"-way;

Under the Leaves.
BY BLANCHE BUSSELL.

Into the lap of the bare brown earth,
Stripped of her beautiful golden sheaves
As II in sympathy for her dearth,
Flutter aud nestle the autumn leaves;
A I'd the pnely landscape hides away
Her face. deep-lined with sad decay,
Under the leaves!
Down from the tall old forest trees
The leafy showers gently fall,
And taking the wings OF the passing breeze
Softly they cover the earth like pail.
All, would that we the past might fold,
OF blighted hopes aud dreams untold,
Under the leaves!
Under the leaves of the flying years,
Oh, strive, thou weary soul, to lay
The care and sorrow, the bitter tears,
The dreary burden of yesterday,
Away deep down in the hearts recess,
Under the leaves of forgetfulness,
Under the leaves.
