OLD Il LETTERS.
BY Norman Gale.

Last night some yellow letters fell
From out a scrip found by chance;
Among them was the silent ghost
The spirit of my first Romance;
And in a faint blue envelope
A withered rose long lost to dew,
Bore witness TO the dashing davs
When love was large and wits were few.
Yet, standing there. all worn and gray,
The envelope qnivered in my eyes
To think of youths unshaken front,
The forehead lifted to the skies
How rough hill my eager feet
Flung backward when upon its crest
saw the tiutter of the lace.
The wind awoke on Helen's breast!
How thornless were the roses then
When fresh young eyes and lips were
kind,
When cupid in our porches proved
How true the tale that Love is blind
But Red.and-White and Poverty
y Would only mate while shone the MAY /
Then came bag of Golden Crowns
And Jingled Red-andWhite away.
Grown old and niggard of romance
vince not much at aught askew,
And often ask my favorite cat
What else had Red-and- White to dor
And here's the bud that rose and sank
crimson island on her breast
Why should burn it2 Once again
Hide, rose. and dream. God send me rest.

was made public to-day by II. Maitland

There has been great deal of talk
about special races between the two

October scribnera
Three miles beyond Apia, on ris-
ing plateau that stands some 700 feet
above the ocean level, lie the house and
grounds of Vailims. II have chosen
the land TO be my land, the people to
be my people, to live and die with, >"
said Mr. Stevenson In his speech to the
Samoan chiefs, and his great lonely
house beneath Vaea Mountain, the
fruit of so much love, thought and
patient labor, will never lose the
worlds interest nor fail to be spot of
pious pilgrimage so long as his books
endure and his exile be unforgotten.
For Stevenson was an exile; he knew
he would never see his native land
again when the steamer carried him
down the Thames; he knew he had
turned his back forever on the Old
World, which had come to mean no
more to him than shattered health,
shattered hopes, a life of gray invalid
ism, tragic to recall. Whatever the
future held in store for him. he knew
it could be no worse than what he was
leaving, that living death of the sick
room, the horror of which he never
dared to but to paper. | can remem-
Der the few minutes allowed him each
day in the open air when the thin sun
shine of South England permitted; his
despairing face, the bitterness of the
soul, too big for words when this little
liberty was perforce refused him. l
recall him saying: II do not ask for
health, but / will go anywhere, live
anywhere | can enjoy the ordinary ex-
istence Of human beipg." used to
remind him Of that when at times his
Samoan exile lay heavily upon him and
his eyes turned longingly to home and
to those friends he would never see
again.
