Love

Sudden upon my night there woke
The trouble Of the dawn.
Out Of the cart the rcd light broke
TO broaden on and on.
Ny days are tuned 70 lner chords
Aud lit by higher suns.
Through al my thoughts and Gil my
words
A purcr purpose runs.
no matter II my hands attain
The golden crown or cross;
Only to love Is such q gain
That losing Is not loss.
And thus, whatever fate betde
OF rapture or Of pain,
II storm o. sun the future hide,
Ny love is not In vain.
So only thanks oro on my LIS,
And through my love ! see
My earliest dreams, like freiFhted ships.
Come sailing home to me.

The late we'll known Miss Jane Clarke

that she should be buried in old point.

with the disuse Of that old-fashloned veil a
great illusion has disappeared from tho
streets Of COnstRntlnople There was some
thing very mysterious about It. Black eyes
never looked so black aud deep and liquid as
when teen by themselves, as IL were, between
two broad bands Of opaque white. In those
days every yashmak yelled an ideal beauty,
