LITTLE SUSIE.

With folded hands upon her breast,
JGttle Susie IS at rest.
Silently her mothers tear
Falls upon that form so dear;
While with sad and aching heart,
She knows she must from Susie part.
She gently strokes her curling hair,
And places choicest flowers there,
Then presses kisses on her brow.
For Susie is in heaven now.
No more VIII Susie's patting feet.
With welcome sound, her papa greet
No more will climb upon his knee,
And shower kisses full and free
Upon his face she loved so well,
Ard oh. so many wishes tell.
Her little brother on the floor,
Watches every opening door,
And eager bends his list'ning ear,
Thinking, SISTER must be near"
Dear little boy. you do not know
That death has laid your sister low.
Yet when your tiny lips lisp, sister,
Then we know you, too. have missed her
The loneliness, the aching void
OF broken ties, of hope destroyed,
The stricken heart alone can tell,
How sorrow can our joy diSpel.
All her garments laid aside,
And the things that were her pride,
The tiny shoes she used to wear,
Put away with her little chair.
Her casket streWed with flowers rare,
BY loving friends who knew her fair,
Then slowly. sadly, ere twas night,
They laid poor Susie out of sight.
Sad parents. dry your weeping eyes;
Now in heaven your treasure les.
There, some sweet day, bye and bye"
You'll join again the severed tie.

that people are breaking $4,000 legs

1t is thought also that the question
