New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1895-06-05

again draw upon me the so1icit ous glance
Of the beautifu ii maiden
In the evening I invented for myself
the most marvellous heroic deeds where
with I would fain have aroused her as
Punishment and compelled hersadmira-
tion. Anythin else neither desired
nor expected The unconscious dawnof
love IN the heart Of youth belongs with
it's pecuHarihes only to pure childhood
The young heart is fooliah1y happy in
sacrifice, quietly content and bindly
conceited and vain. Il cannot yet love,
It needs but to be loved and admired to-
bestow happiness is not its object, and
the only Joy it knows is 3 blissfnl nm
rest; its only need, to receive love with
ont bestowing it In after years one
gives without receiving and is very well
of with that So every thing IN the
world is arranged in the best manner,
where there are people who find their
joy in giving, and others who are hap
piest IN receiving
But how short and sweet is the one
time when one gives and receives, when
one loves and is beloved have known

possibly happy has now left me. How
beautiful was the world when ] saw it
with her; how blue the heaven; how
soft the air We FASTENED, hand in hand,
from place to place, and wherever we
went, langhingH joy stepped forth to
greet Us, begging us to inger. We went
laughing, singing, rejoicing along, as
sured OF our good fortune everywhere.
Sometimes orr riotous delight, over
stepping all bounds, startled sober peo-
pie. But the stern glance softened when
it rested upon us: They are young.
Let them enjoy themselves, said the
old, and went along sorrowfully smil-
ing. She chung SO tightly to my arm,
she nestled so closely to my side, that
thought I could never lose her. The
idea of a possible change never came to
me, never troubled me. Thus I ived.a
long time. Weeks, months, years flew
by, and needed them not.
zone evening, after we had spent the
day yet more madly and merrily than
usual, she suddenly appeared to me dis
contented and cold. A terrible fear
which / am not able to describe fell
upon me. An icy GOODNESS crept over me-
She will leave you, said to myself,
certainly, surely, she will leave you
It occurred to me how little had really
concerned myself about her, how per-
haps had expected too much of her truth
and constancy. For the first time I felt
my trust in myself and in her WAIVER,
and anxiously I gazed into her eyes,
But her glance turned YEARLY from me
and gave me no answer. ..--
My rest was gone, my life no more
the same. It is true she still pressed me
impetuously to. her bosom again and
again, but the sweetness of her kiss had
vanished. Often she pushed me coldly
away, and I saw to my unutterable sor-
row that my love wearied her. And
when [ once at later hour returned
home, tired and dejected~I found the
room dark, cold and empty. She, my
joy, my light, my all, had vanished.

the dying fire, and fell to the characters

'What is the name of this wonderful

It is held by some that the coinage Of
China was invented especially for the
confusion of the foreigner. At any rate,
two market villages 20 miles apart are
quite certain to have different rate of
exchange, and-but this may be only a
coincidence the foreigner is not the one
who profits thereby. Thus, suppose you
