HER RIVAL.

oh, she tried full hard to love him,
Yes, this little woman did;
And not one took rank above him
In her mind or heart; she hid
All his faults from busy bodies,
For she knew no harm he meant
lie might smoke or take his toddies
If he only kept the scent Z
OFF his breath; he might go flirting
With the girls, too, il inclined,
So he thought not of deserving
These did not disturb her mind.
But rs to and fro, one morning,
Unobserved, she watched him pass,
While he was himself adjoining,
He kept flirting with the glass.
Then her rival she saw clearly,
Was not woman, wine or pelr,
But a stronger, Tor most dearly,
Hopelessly, he loved himself

The nIouse as a Pet.

A winsome pet is the common brown
mouse, and now fancy hear the most
vigorous protests from my readers, who,
though they do not shrek and take ref
uge on chairs and tables like Howells'
feminine characters, still have strong
feeling of .distaste to him. Nothing can
be imagined more dainty, graceful and
altogether captivating than the tricks
and manners of this humble resident
within our walls.
Once allay the poor little creatures
fears of his big, clumsy human persecu-
tors, and his delightsome qualities are
apparent. Frisky in movements, droll
in conceits and eccentric Of action, he is
a never ending source Of entertainment.
Moreover, he is as teachable as the rat,
absolutely neat in his ways and most
loving to his friends. .-Harper's Bazaar.
