The dew from the lily Is slipped.
The glory Is led from the dawn iizht,
Inc pearls from youths chaples hath slip

But, Oh little hearth tiny baby
WIN red lips SO warm ct my breast
You and make world to ourselves, love;
To ourselves. and apart from the rest.
Ny feet have trod many a pathway
WIN orlar and blossom astrewn;
Lies fragrance and bloom brushed my gar.
ments,
But vanished and faded too soon.
Yet oh, little bud human fioweri--
Nestled tenderiy now on NV arm
Life fingers with still one fond blessing,
Love leaves me stil one precious charm
Looking back on strange trouble and sorrow,
Lost hopes, wounded pride and long pain,
deny chat life brings compensation
ana Tor all that we suffer find gain;
Yet oh. In the joy of thy smile. sweet
so innocent, cherubic, bright,
There Is balm for the hurts Of lifetime,
Nepenthe Tor worlds chill and blight.
Whom lean on may coldly turn from me;
whom love may love others instead;
Whom trust with kiss may betray me
And leave me alone In dark dread.
But thou, with thy blue eyes on mina Iowa;
With thy musical dear, cooling call
To thee IN still tha most welcomed
To thee am still all in ALI

BY EVA DONALDSON.

In dreams walk In pleasant WAYS.
BY hmpid streams In sunny dells,
Where peace abides and beauty dwells,
And splendors glow through happy days
dream Of friends whose faith is fast.
! dream OF love that cannot fail,
on joys that never tire nor pale,
Or hopes that beckon till the last.
In dreams ! hear the songs of hirds,
] see the shores Of happy lands,
feel the clasp Of loving hands,
catch the drift of tender words.
They are but dreams, and I, alas,
Awake TO weep my vanished blissi
Awake 70 feel the truth OF this
That dreams can never came to pass.
sometimes wish ne'er had dreamed
About the things long for SO,
For then my heart might never know
Howsdear their sweet fulillment seemed
Still let me dream, for oftentimes
The path is drear, the day is bleak,
My soul so sad, my heart so weak,
! fain would hear the happy chimes
The happy chimes that fancy rings
Across the dreary moors Of life;
fam would see amid my strife
The peaceful visions fancy brings

Died as Does the Swan.

A peculiarly pathetic incident marked
the closing of the life of Alonzo E. Stod-
dard, the well known Boston baritone,
who died with typhoid fever As he lay
on his cot in the hospital breathing his
last, sudden inspiration seemed to re-
WITTY him, and, to the wonder of all, he
sat upright in his couch and began to
sing in his familiar, robust voice one of
his favorite operatic solos. He never
sang with more feeling or with more
beauty of tone. The song was sung
from beginning to end, the last notes
ded away, and just as they ended the
singsr fell back in his bed. dead

Camped N-ar Each Other.
CRY OF MEXICO, Aug. IA dispatch
received here says the armies of San
Salvador and Guatemala are now
camped within sight of each other,
ready to anticipate any movement
looking to a renewal of the warfare. In
the meantime the Ministers of Costa
Rica and Nicaragua have not ceased
their efforts in behalf of peace. They
have been hard at work and have had
the active cooperation of the entire
diplomatic corps.
War with Honduras now appears
to be inevitable. The actions of Presi-
dent Bogran of that country have not
been satisfactory to Provisional Presi-
dent Ezeta of Salvador, and he is
irritated beyond measure. Ezeta is
watching the situation closely and may
take summary action ut any time.
