When a visitor comes round,
Feeling bright and cheerful,
Presently, you hear a sound
Strldulous n fearful;
And you sit in silence grim,
Nervous, pale and snappy,
Thinking dagger-points for him,
Whistling, cause he's happy.
But. when later on, he calls,
Looking blue and bilious,
With a grievance that appalls
Fen the supercilious:
Then you miss the note that made
Indignation bristle;
Wish he'd drop his manner staid:
Wish that he would whistle.

thoughts heavily laden with burden OF self

Arrived at the limits OF the lawn, two paths
opened before him. One led into a quantity
pretty Enclosure, cultivated OH the plan Of
the old gardens at Versailles, ana called the
French garden. The other path led 10 a

Except az certain points. where the moon

now following wound onward in shadow.
How far Le had advanced he had not noticed
when he heard 4 mOlnentary rustling Of
leaves at some little distance in advance Of
him. The faint breeze had died away: tie
movement among the leaves had been no
doubt produced by the creeping or the flying
OF some creature Of the night. Looking up
at the moment when he was disturbed by
this trifing incident he noticed a bright patch
" moonlight ahead as he advanced TO q new

His mind, oppressed all through the evening,
