LOVES SEASON.

In sad sweet days when hectic fiushes
Burn red on maple and surnac leaf,
When sorrowful winds wall through tho fvlshcs.
And all things whisper Of loss and grief.
When close and closer bold Frost approaches
To snatch the blossom from Natures brenst.
When night forever on day oncroaches--
Oh, then think that love you bcsti
And yet when winter, that tyrnnt master,
Has buried autnmn in walls Of snow,
Ana bound and fcttered where bold Frost cast
tts her
Lies outraged Nnture In helpless WOO;
When al earth's pleasures In four walls center,
And side by side in the snug home nest,
we list the tempest that cannot enter,
y oh, then say that love you besti
nut later on, when the siren season
betrays the trust of the senile king,
And glad earth laughs at the act of treason,
And winter dies in the arms of spring;
when buds and birds all push and flutter
To free fair Nature so long oppressed,
thrill with feelings cannot utter,
And then Lam certain love you best.
But when In splendor the queenly summer
Reigns over the earth and the skies above
When Nature kneels to the royal conner,
And even the sun flames hot with love;
When pleasure basks in the luscious weather,
And care lies out on the sward to rest
Oh, whether apart or whethor together,
1t Is then know that I love you best!
