a WAVE OF LIFE.

She was an outcast. Oh, the words mean
much;
The scorn of men, the shame of those whose
touch
Would almost seem salvation to that heart
Torn from life's hottest, purest things apart.
! FOR where she breathed the atmosphere was
taint
With crime and misery, and every taint
| That ma kes sin odous; SO the years went on,
Until at last her course was nearly run.
She knew it, knew the lonely, bitter end
Must come, and faced ii rs some welcome
friend
Whose footsteps she had longed to hear; she
Silent and sat upon her couch one day
III some one brought flower, a sweet-brier
rose,
And placed it in her hand; from dun re-
She started with blush, and then a tear.

She murmured-"happy time forgotten long
" ny does my gentle mothers twilight song
Ny fathers place beside the evening hearth
Ny brothers jest, my sisters childish mirth,
why do they come to haunt me as | lie
so 10th to live, so fearful still to die?
Alas tonight it seems q little while
since last saw my darling mothers smile.
Where the sweet-brier grew beyond the walk
With four o'clocks and crimson gilly-Stak
There where she came at twilight every day
With reverent head bent down her beads to
say"
Sobs choked her, tears burst forth-"Run. Es-
ther, run,
Go, call priest" she cried, "my days are
done.
Q, Lord, be merciful and wait for me
VINO since my youth have scorned and out
ragged Thee"
They went to her bidding-on her breast
Lay something wrapped i'll linen which she
pressed
With deep emotion, striving to undo
| The countless threads that pierced it through
and through.
And when they came with him who was to
lift
| The veil of darkness upon that soul, adrift
Upon the sea OF woe and shame SO long,
they found copy of a nursery song,
And tightly wound about her finger tips
A child,s small, slender Rosary, worn and
old.
And tina was all, dearest-my tale is told;
The sequel lies with God. An who dare say
Heavens mercy did not bend the scales that
day?

Peeially adapted for fruit-growing. cannot bs

subjects called to the attention of the
rational congress. Col. Fiske, of Col
