Nay, you wrong her, my friend; she's not tickle;
her love Sue has simply uutgrown.
One can read the whole matter, translating her
heart by the light Of ones own.
Can you bear me to talk with you frankly
There IS much mat my heart would say,
And you know we were children together, have
quarrced and made up in play.
And 50 for the sake Of old friendship venture
to tell YOU the truth
AS plainly perhaps and as bunty as | might in
our earlier youth.
Five summers ago when you wooed her you
stood ON the self same plane,
Face to face, heart to heart, never dreaming
your souls could be parted again.
She loved you at that time entirely, In the
bloom of her life's early May,
And it is not her fault, repeat it, that she does
not love you today
Nature never stands still nor souls either. They
ever go up or 20 down,
And hers has been steadily soHrng-but how
has it been with your own
She has struggled and yearned and aspired-
grown purer and wiser each year;
The stars are not farther above you in yon lumi-
nous atmosphere!
For she whom you crowned with fresh roses
down yonder five summers ago
Has learned that the first of our duties to God
and ourselves is to grow.
Her eyes they are sweeter and calmer, but their
vision is clearer as well;
Her voice has a tenderer cadence, but is pure
as silver bell.
/ Her face has the look worn 10y those WIN with
God and his angels have talked;
/ The white robes she wears are less white than
the spirits with whom she has walked.
/ And your Have you aimed at the highest? Have
you, too aspired and prayed!
/ Have you looked upon evil unsullicdY Have you
conquered it undismayedI
| Have you, too, grown purcr and wiser as the
months and the years have rolled on2
| Did you meet her this morning rejoicing in the
triumph Of victory won;
Nay hear me. The truth cannot harm you
When today in her presence you stood,
! Was the hand that you gave her as white and
clear as that of her womanhoodg
Go measure yourself by her standard. Look
back on the years that have fled,
Then ask, if you need, why she tells you that
the love of her girlhood is dead!
She cannot look down to her lover-her love
like her soul, aspires;
He must stand by her side, or above her, who
would kinde its holy fires.
I Now, farewell! For the sake of old friendship
have vcnturcd to tell you the truth
As plainly perhaps and as bluntly as might in
our earlier youth.

He's II grimy handed fellow,
But his smile is bright and mellow,
And his apron can't conceal his manly heart;
He's our certain, sure salvation,
For we'd get long vacation
If his judgment didn't fix our clumsy part.
When we send hasty poem,
Or a soulful sonnet throw him,
Written on II ragged blotting pad in chalk.
With no thought of dots or dashes
Just a lot of scrawling sashes-
Why, it's then he makes his type get up and
talk.
He eliminates our blunders-
They are often comic wonders
Braces up our lines and capitals supplies:
What correction gives our spelling
There's no hope Of ever telling,
But he crosses all our is and dots our is.
And to all such doctored "batches,"
Honest fellow, he attaches
Not his name but Ours, in letters bold and plain,
But the world shall give him credit,
For as soon as it has read it
Twill be known our sins have been absoved
again.

Which Road Would You Takeq

If you could go back TO the forks of the road,
Back the long miles you have carried your load,
Back to the place where you had to decide
BY this way or that through your life to abide,
Back TO the sorrow, back to the care,
Back to the place where the future was fair,
If you were there now, a decision TO make,
0pigrim Of sorrow, which road would you take?
Then after you'd travelled the other long track,
Suppose that again TO the forks you went bac k;
After you found that its promises fair
Were but a delusion that led to a snare,
That the road that you first Travelled with signs
and unrest,
Though dreary and rough, was most graoiously
blest
With balm for each bruise and a charm for
each ache
Opilgrim of sorrow, which road would you take2

Two sons from out two distant homes one day
Went bravey forth in life to win Il way.
And one had wealth to shield him from rough
cares;
The other, poorer, took his mothers prayers.
One sought and found high honors at his hand:
One fought to gain place whereon to stand.
One found his path thick strewn with roses
sweet;
One struggled long through thorns, with bleed
ing feet.
One came at noon, wealth gone and flowers
dead;
One stood in calm, with sunshine round his
head.
One fell beneath temptations wiles, unarmed
The other stood amid all dangers still un.
harmed.

CE MS IN VERSE.


High nichcd within the temple Of my heart
An idol stood all faultess in my sight;
The rosy tint it wore in loves warm light
Its pose, linisse de grain, and every part
proportioned fifty by the sculptor's art,
Combined it seemed, as.seen from its great
height,
To make a form divine; and day and night
My soul TO IL did alteration pay,
Till 10! in time 1t fell upon the ground,
And right before my feet it broken lay,
when, scanning it amazcdly, found
twas but a coarse and faulty piece of clay.
My partial sight alone had made it seem
A work full meet to fill masters dream.

VISIBLE SOUND.

n human voice may on the plastic disk
Breathe into being forms of beauty rare,
And we may Zee the voices that we love
Take shape and color, infinitely fair,
May not the lofty mountains and the hills
Be voice of God; his song, the gentle flower
His chant, the stars procession, and, alas!
His only sigh, these human hearts of ours2
