A CASTLE IN SPAIN.

Once I built me a castle In Spain,
A wonderful castle fair and high.
Altar from the haunts OF care and pain.
For hung its rafters in the sky,
"And here" said. II will take my case;
am tired Of those who cry TO me:
Amid all these measureless silences.
How calm and quiet my rest shall be-"
I sat me down with none 10 modest;
The great world sinned and sorrowed be-
low;
Far out OF the reach of its wild unrest
How the peaceful days might come and
so.
But 10, in my heart dark clouds arose,
The skies were full OF the summer sun.
SIN at morning l longed for day 10 close.
And at evening wished the night were
done.
And OH" / said. "for a heart TO cheer.
A stranger TO break my bread with met
And the silence answered, heavy and
drear;
Nay. take thine ease. none calleth for
thee"
Nv beautiful castle is fair and high.
1t floats and swings in limitless space;
But down where the weary and sorrowful
cry
For comfort and help, is a fairer place.
And the day has wings; its hours too few,
For the blessed labor. the welcome pain.
Who cares to dwell in the ether blue
May have at his will my castle in Spain.
Chicago Advance.
