The tears are falling thick and fast over
my work, for tomorrow will be my we'd

home of my childhood.
Everything is in at last, and I close the

The note is short and unsatisfactory, only
telling me that be cannot see me to-day, as
he is obliged to GO out of town; but it Is
from Jack; so, of course, kiss 1t, and put
it in my bosom, and then run to put my
flowers in water.
This is hardly done when the dcor-bell

He comes in and greets me In his usual
abrupt fashion, and setting chair for me,
places himself directly in front of me.

with an attempt at lightness in which he
utterly fails.
"FeelP why, with my fingers, Ted, don't

LOVES SONG DELAYED.


Will YOU sing me one more song,
Simple, sweet and true, dearP
Here away from yonder throng,
Qaite alone with you, dear,
l could listen all day long,
With your face in view dear.
Ere you sing the song divine,
Sit beside me so, love;
Put your little hand in mine,
just like this, you know, love;
On me let your bright eyes shine,
Tenderness TO show, love.
Lay your head upon my breast
Little head so golden,
Lunny locks have been caressed
Since the love-times olden;
Chide me not, of sweetest, best;
True love doth embolden.
Chide me not il | enfold
One strong arm about you,
As a shelter from the cold
l who ne'er can doubt YOU;
| who, with my love untold,
Ne'er can live without you.
Past the setting OF the sun,
In the town and city,
Listeners gathering one by one
Darling what pity!
For you never have begun
Loves enhancing ditty.
Never mind the song-some Joy
Love is ever bringing;
We shall soon hear joyful sounds
Better far than singing.
When our silvery wedding-bells
Merrily are ringing.

The gentle animals leisurely trotted along
as we gained gradual ascent in the road,
which gave us an unobstructed view of the
most beautiful landscapes 1 had ever seen.
To the north stood a range of massive
cliffs, out of whose highest peak came the
ceaseless roar of a mighty cataract, its sill
yer spray being just then embellished by
all the beauteous hues of the rainbow,
caused by the last lingering ray of the set
ting sun.
Beneath lay the smiling valley, luxuri-
antly garbed with the richest treasures OF
the season. Beyond stood grove, and
wrapped in its bosom could be seen several
white cottages, an occasional CLEAN ol
sunshine transforming the windows into
FURNISHED gold.

we embraced each other.
"Lottie, you must be very tired. Come

where a sweet baby lay asleep in its crib.
