SO. Bairnies, Cudd1e Doom. ;,

The following poem, which fairly
rivals the most exquisite and tender of
Burns household lyrics, was written
by a common Scotch laborer, some if
teen years ago He was section hand
on the North British Railroad, and the
poem was published in a local paper.
So far as can be learned, the author
has never given any other evidence of
literary talent than that contained in
this one marvellous production:
The bairnies cuddle doom at NIGHT

They never heed a word l speak,

But aye l hap them up an say,

At length they hear their fathers fit,
An as he steeks the door,
They turn their faces to the wa.

the Colonel turned the key in the lock,
and they two went in.
There it stood, all untouched since
that dreadful morning eighteen months
ago. Glasses and silver, damask and
china, and in the center the great bride
cake with the frosting hardly crumbled.
There was dust over everything, and at
the corners little heaps of withered
leaves lay beneath the vases that had
once held flowers, but Miss Lucia didn't
seem to notice that; she looked awhile
and then she said: 'It is very pretty,
but I will go back now, for it is almost
time for Stephen
And that was the last word that she
ever spoke in this world. Her strength
seemed to leave her all of a sudden
then. The Colonel carried her up stairs
in his arms, as though she'd been a
baby, and laid her on her bed, and there
it might be an hour later, all dressed in
her wedding garment, she entered her
