one mad rush as the two bands come
together. Some of the horsemen are
dlsmembered, some are wounded: it
seldom happens that one is killed, and
victory is quickly lost and won, for
these Arab encounters do not last long.
If the invaders are victorious they take
the horses Of the enemy, which is all
they care for, and start homeward.
The on y property Of any value which
the Bedouins ever have is their horses.
Perhaps reinforcements are secured
by the beaten party and long pursuit
of the victors begins. And now comes
into play those qualities of endurance
which the Arab esteems in his horse.
for mile after mile, hour after hour, he
gallops, with short stops for rest, and
with very little food or water. If a
halt is made at MONDAY and the sun is
hot, the rider, dismountlng, lies down
under his horses bell y the only shade
procurable for perhaps one hundred
miles around, and the faithful animal
stands with dropping head.
Sometimes gale of cold wind, driv-
ing the sand in clouds before it, springs
up-what we call blizzard, except that
sand takes the place of snow. No
creature can face such a storm. The
Arab makes his horse lie down with
his back to the wind, and then the rid
er, wrapping himself in his cloak,
curls up for protection between the
four legs of the steed.
The best Arabs are apt to be bay IN
co'or, some are chestnut, few are
gray, occasionally one is pure white,
or coal black. There are no roam, pie
bald, dun, or ''ealico" horses among
them Their backs are slightly and
gracefully curved, their bodies round,
and swelling, and they carry them
selves proudly, as if they said Gas wrote
an English traveller,) "Look at me, am
I not pretty?'' Their heads are their
great beauty. The forehead is large,
and swel's out in the middle, in grace
full curve, and the eyes are large, soft,
and intelligent. The ears are delicate,
finely shaped, and when they are prick
ed forward the points almost touch.
The nose is narrow, running down to a
point and it is an old saying that an
Arabian horse might drink ont of a
tea cup. Such is the thorough bred of
the desert. Horses are what men make
them; and the Arabian horse is hardy,
courageous, gentle, intelligent, and
beautiful, because his master, the Be-
douin, is active and enduring, because
he is kind and patient, because he val
ues good birth and breeding.-Ml-

WAITING FOR SPRING.
ISAAC BASSETT CHOATE.

All winter long
We waited with what patience we could wait
The coming of the spring that loitered late
With bloom and song.
In tropic lands;
Our fields were white with snow, our skies
were gray,
Streams were in bands,
There voices still;
And while we listened for the muffled sound
Ofwaters running as if underground,
Up on the hill,
A bluebird's note
Wove the sweet fancy of summers day
Into the warbling of simple lay
From tuneful throat,
We watched the sky
As Roman augurs watched on Aventine
And never by those priests more glad were
The eagles fly
In quick alarms
Back to the purple heights Of Tivoli,
Their righ. hand course betokening victory
To Roman arms.
For coming thus
The loud voiced herald of advancing spring,
The piteous- crying loon. on tirelass wing
Game back to us.
Th' impatient boy
Was glad to greet the loon though out OF
sight,
Hearing that wel.-Anown cry fiom its far
With unfeigned Joy.
By meadow streams
The buds grew red upon the maple trees,
And willow catkins called the drowsy bees
From winter dreams.
A snowy white
Were petals which the pear and cherry hid
Beneath the folding of furry lid
Well out of sight.
Soft creeping round
The lichen- -bedded rock on sunny l,pas
Shy Epigea, led by cherished hopes,
Looked from the ground;
While singing clear,
Heard from the garden, orchard, field, and
wold,
The sweet breathed scent of violets plainly told
That spring was here.

THE ARABIAN STEED.
HY H. c. MERWIN.

On the edges of the desert Of Arabia
are large cities such as Damascus on
the west and Bagdad on the east shores.
These towns are famous horse markets,
and many horses ia sely called "Arab-
ian" are sold there every yea'; but one
do not find IN every city the true
Arabian horse, the courser of The des-
ert, the fleet and faithful animal known
to poetry and romance. He is to be
seen only among those wandering tribes
of Arabs or Bedouins who would scorn
to live IN towns.

BITTER.SWEET.
Lillian BELL.

Out of the fragrant Past, mem'ry steals,
Nor will its voice be hushed by jest or song;
With vows of love and low replies it deals,
With joys and griefs lain hic a whole year
long.
1t whispers of time when love was young
With us-of hours before we brnathed his
name;
Contented just to roam life's flowers among,
Nor feared tomorrow till tomorrow came
Oh, that sweet silent time. When hearts drew
near
And spoke all wordless that which was too
high
And fine tor speech;-when souls were tuned
Thro' wind-swept strings, the echo of sigh.
We were together then. "Together'-Think
How much that wo:d once meant to us!
We never dreamed our feet would reach the
brink
Of death in life, and we be sundered thus
Not sweet alone is love, though all repeat
The story of its joy, forgetting all its grief
Not sweet alone, but strangely bilter-sweet;-
Amid the roses hide the cypress-leaf.
To us Love came with sadGened eyes and tears;
His wings adroop, his face all pale and still;
The burden of his song, not hopes but fears,
And yet-and yet, ah, Love is loath to kill!
So we liva on, apart, yet strangely near;
Naught can divide our heaven born SYM
pathy;
Each heat beat felt-each smile and sigh and
tear,
Love will not mar souls sweet sympathy.
Dear heal t, be brave. For he who loves Alright
May look in Sorrows face, nor yet shall
grieve;
No rougher grows the path; by thy souls might
1t smooths beneath thy feet. Oh love be-
