"THE RlPENED LEAVES"
BY MARGAREr =. sANesrpp

BY MARGARET e. sANGsTER
Said the leaves upon the branches
one sunny autumn day:
We've finished all our work. and now
we can no longer stay.
80 our gowns of red and yellow
And our sober cloaks of brown,
Must be worn before the frost comes,
And we go rustling down.
we've had a jolly summer,
:, With the birds that built their nests
beneath our green umbrellas
And the squirrels that were our guests
But we cannot wait for winter.
For we do not care for SNOW
When we hear the wild northwesters
We loose our clasp and go
But we hold our heads up bravely
Unto the very last,
And shine in pomp and splendor
AS away we t1utter fast.
In the mellow autumn noontide
We kiss and say good-by;
And through the naked branches
Then may children see the sky"

tress of Belfort, which, by dint of energy
and excellent diplomacy, Theirs had saved
for France, Bismarck said: HE is good
patriot"
On my return to Paris called on Theirs
and had great pleasure in repeating to him
what the great Geman had said.
Mr.. Healy painted Gambetta. Of this
famous Frencaman he says:
Personally,
GAMBETTA WAS MUCH COURTED,
and his friends loved him dearly. He had
that rare gift of personal magnetism, And
yet he was full of faults; he never could
rid himself of certain rough habits, con-
tracted in his youth; accustomed especial
ly to mems society. he was at times a little
coarse, loud-voiced, beer-drinking, and in
the habit of putting himself very much at
his ease wherever he happened to be, l
remember that my first impression of the
great orator was not favorable one. 1t
was in 1875, at we.l-known political lady S
house, where all the men prominent in the
Republican party assembled regularly.
Gambetta had spoken that day at the
Chamber with even more than ordinary
success; enthusiasm was at its height, and
he was the great man of tie day. He came
late, and though usually when he went into
society he took refuge in the smoking
room, where, surrounded by his usual
court, he could drink beer and talk with
perfect freedom, that evening he went in
TO the drawing-room. Seated, or rather
half reclinging, on a lounge, he was im-
mediately surrounded by the prettiest and
most charming young women of the
society, who, seated about him, seemed al
most in alteration before this popular idol.
1t would have been difficult for any man to
have remained, in spite of such fattery,
