The manager of North Illinois-street
fish stand had just opened his place one
morning last week. when three men with
'jags" in the st age of incub ubatiou wandered
in and ordered three strings Of fish pre-
pared. They promised TO call for them on
their return in the evening. "You see.

planned. I'VE are all married men. and

The fish dealer said he understood. ana

evening. Not having much faith In the
ability of the party to recolleot tha con-
tract they had made. he concluded to Walt
until they came back before he put up the

all came back with the 'jags" fully davel-
Oped. and when they found the fisherman

they fell upon him with violent and unse-

OFFERINGS or THE POETS.

It Was tn. 1w,iyht Talking.
1t was the twilight talking
In accents soft and low,
And not your voice. beloved,
That thrilled my pulses so.
1t was the drowsy murmur
or Happy nesting bird,
Not words Of love and longing
In hush of evening heard.
1t is a trick of fancy
To hear your footsteps pass,
Yet know IL is the night wind
Gone signing in the grass;
A dear and sweet illusion
To feel your dark eyes shine
Athwart the dark. and kindle -
The fires OF youth in m inc.
But this is love that passes
This evanescent thing; --ff
We stretch our arms, and fnd 1t
Forever vanishing;
Forever In the twilight,
Gone wandering with the breeze,
Gone-drifting down the archway
OF tender, budding trees.
Gone-fioating on the water,
GOne-ringing through the air,
Then lifting back TO kiss Us
And leave us in despair. t
So with my dream this evening, AL =
And so it is know

In August.
When katydids begin to sing
In cadence soft, DER everything
Like autumn haze CONES dreamily
A spirit of tranquility;
A sense OF ripeness and repose
Soft as the breeze that Gibbs and flows
Among the pines when eventide
BrOods over them.
So lulled we glide
Beyond the summers Turing ways,
Oblivlous OF other days
Till WI nter clouds are lowering
And katydids have ceased 10 sing.

Jenny and were lovers
Many and many year;
Poor as be-but Jenny gave me
The gold of her moonlight hair;
And said, Too ragged a lover
To wed with the winsome v itoh!" s.
But she bent her head, with lips o red, 3
And kissed me and made me rich.
Jenny and were lovers,
Yonder-in storm nd fair;
But her blue-brighL eyes made the summer
skies
And her smile the spring o. the year. -
Poor as a wayside beggar,
With her tresses around me curled.
Like veins o. gold in the rugged mold,
was richer than all the world.
Jenny and I were lovers.
With only the sky above;
And we cared not for painted cot,
For heaven over our love.
The brooks were our mirrors; the waters wine
That sparkled by hill and glen;
Her face beamed pink where 1 stopped to drink,
And tie water was sweeter Thea!
Jenny and were lovers
Many and many year; fh
But the rose was wed to her lips o. red
And the moonlight envied her hair:
And the red creeps where her true heart
sleeps
And the moonlight falleth drear
Where Jenny and were lovers
Many and many year.
