WOaAx's FIRST LOVE-

Whom first weIOve, you know. We seldom wed
Time rules us all. And life, indeed, is not
The thing we plannedit out ere hope was dead
And then we women cannot choose our lot
Much must be borne which is hard to bear,
Much given away which it were sweet to keep,
And yet 1 know the shepherd loved his sheep.
Ny little boy begins to babble now
Upon my knees his earliest infant prayer;
He has his fathers eager eyes, I know,
And they say, too, his mothers s sunny hair.
But when he sleeps and smiles upon my knee,
And 1 can feel his light breath come and go,
/ think of One-HeaVen help and pity me-
Who loved me, and whom loved long ago.
Who might have been-ahl what dare not
to think;
We are all changed. God judges forthe best.
God help us do our duty, and not shrink,
And trust in Heaven humbly tor the rest.
But blame us women not, If some appear
Too cold at times, and some too gay and
light;
Some griefs gnaw deep; some woes are hard
to bear;
Who knows the past? and who can judge
Us right?
Ali were we judged by what we might have
been,
And not by what We are-tOO apt to fall
Ny little child-he sleeps and smiles between
These thoughts and me. In Heaven we
shall know all.

1t Is perhaps a little late IN the day 60
recall war incidents, yet a somewhat re-
markabie one was brought to my mind q
day or two ago by a meeting with Wal
lace Hume, the well known theatrical
architect mr. Hume was a member of
the Cincinnati regiment commanded by
W III. Lyle, the soldier poet who lost
ms lie early IN the struggle while brave
~ facing the enemy. He was grievious-
~ wounded, and with the others of his
comrades, as well as many confederates.
were taken TO the hospital at Springfield,
ny. Here he lay sutferiE@ acutelY. One
morning the familiar words - li.g com
mander's well known poem. Anthony
and CleOpartra. came to his mind, and
almost unconsciOusly he repeated aloud
the first line: Il am dying Egypt dy-
mgr A confederate soldier lying on the
next cot took up the sentence and fol-
lowed with the text: Gibbs and crimson
life tide fast" Hume continued and al
ternately each line of the magnificent
poem the twain completed before II word
was exchanged. Then they fell into
conversation and discovered many SINH
lar1tles of taste. Ere they recovered a
strong friendship had been formed.
When health had been restored they
separated and did not meet again until
