One Sum mer's IdyI.

D the Editor:
She was tall. aesthetic. charming:
She was most divinely fair,
And she set his heart to beating
Like wild and piancing pair
or dapple grays.
He met her at the seaside,
Where he gave to her his heart.
And she took It with an idle grace
Which quite became the part
or belle.
But the season'e end came quickly.
Fond goodbys were gently said.
Back to town and stocks and business
He most heavily did tread
Loveless goal.
Each days dreaming brought her nearer
To his life dreams high ideal,
And even when he sauntered out
To get his MONDAY meal
He thought OF her.
Thought OF her when he was toying
with a much-soiled bill Of fare.
When a tap upon the shoulder
Reminded him that he was there
In the dairy.
YEARLY he gave his order
For boiled eggs and apple pie.
Then, tossing down the bill Of fare,
He gazed into the laughing eye
or the maid.
What a shock went through his being,
As he slowly realized
That the dairy maid before him
Was the BELLE whose smile he priIed
At the seaside.
