OLD HOME LoNGINGs.


FrTEKDs OF THE c. O.: Who have not been at
some time overcome by the sharp. fierce longing
for the old home? One may not sigh Tor palace
deeply and so sincerely one Oh alien soil may
long for a return into some cool, oldfashioneo
kitchen.
There ia something sweet and touching In the
sight OF an old man old woman. or n child or
dog sad and homesick for the home-lifs and ways
that belonged 10 a better and sweeter time.
Would it be the same, dear sir or madam, II you
should venture back Into your old homer
Who would guess from your "reminiscences tnat
you would have TO stoop your proud neck TO pass
under the arbor with its hanging grape-like clus-
tiers Of amellysiine wslhria? Oh IL Is best not to
go back 60 the old home. Let AS keep our child
hood picture and dream Of the old home unfair
bedded Ia lump Of amber. Some know only the
sweet and bitter Of waiting
Yesterday were full OF hope and expectation.
To-day there T. in the somber sky; hearts
and limbs are alike heavy: life has promise
only the promise Of waiting for that which shall
never come. think that there Is no one 80 poor
he has not chstzet 81 unfulfiled dreams that ara
precious 90 him. When hear Of one OF US fading
out Of life ! not altogether sorry, for know
that somewhere on an unknown. radiant shore lac
viii come into possession OF MI hrs hopes sno
dreams: that there the long disquiet will be over
and the long waiting viii be ended fOTever-Moi-
