FIRST LOVE.

How does woman lover Once, no more,
Though life forever it's loss deplorc:
Deep In sorrow or deapin sin,
One king reigneth her heart within,
One alone. by night and day,
| Moves her spirit to curse or pray.
| One voice only can call her soul
] Back from the grasp OF deaths control;
Though lovers beset her or friends deride,
| Yea, when she smileth another mans bride,
| Still for her master her life makes moan
Once is forever, and once alone.
How does man love? Once for all,
The sweetest voices of life may call,
Sorrow daunt him, or death dismay,
joys red roses bedeck his way;
Fortune smile, or Jest, or frown,
The cruel thumb of the world turn down:
Loss betray him, or love delight.
Through storm or sunshine, by day or night,
Wandering, toiling, asleep, awake.
Though souls may madden, or weak hearts
break,
Better than wife, or child, or pelf,
Once and forever, he loves-himself.

Gladys Inn.
We had occasion recently to stop at
Gladys Inn, West Clifton Forge, while
ona business visit to that interesting
and growing portion of the State. It
had been some months since we had put
in an appearance at this attractive hos
telry, and consequently were agreeably
surprised at the many improvements
that had been made on the grounds, and
the thorough system that is observed
in the general management of the hotel
and premises. 1t is said the most difficult
thing, in the way of business, to do is
to keep hotel' successfully The
truth of the saying is proven by the
many failures in this line of enterprise.
But the Gladys is one Of the veritable
exceptions, in that it is not only luxuri-
ously furnished. and has every appoint
ment of comfort, but has been eminently
successful. Mr.. E. A. White has proven
himself, on first trial, to be number
one hotel man and has treated the large
number of visitors, who have come in
excursion parties, and pleasure seekers,
in the most satisfactory manner. The
hotel register shows a very large patron
age and all the Indications evidence q
season of remarkable success. Mr.
White has been ably assisted by Mr.
Snead and Mr.. WIS sons, all OF whom
have contributed to making the Gladys
one of the most attractive public houses
in the country Yost's Weekly.
