HOW MUCH WE KNOW.

Can any one explain what subtle force
Determines Nature in her varied course:
From seed to bud-from bud to opening
leaf,
From scattered kernels to the golden
sheaf?
Who can presume to understand the
reason
Why flowers blossom in their proper sea-
son;
Or why the fragrant lily and the rose
Can flourish where the deadly cactus
grows?
Behold! The golden-slippered bee sue
ceeds
In drawing sweetness from the bitter
weeds,
And loathsome worms long crawling in the
mire
Become bright-winged creatures of the air.
All, when we ask ourselves how that or
this
Can mark such cunning metamorphosfs.
Let us remember, Nature in her plan
Was wise enough before the world began.
To shape her course without the aid of
man.
Had man to do with all these wondrous
things,
The busy bee would fold his rapid wings
The lily and the rose would catch disease
From every wind that blows across the
seas,
And eer the worm, in undeveloped bliss,
Prefer to wither in its chrysaliS.

THE SAME OLD WAY.

Turn the light a little low,
Choose the handiest room YOU can:
On your knees you'll have to go.
If you'd do it like a man.
Cultivate an anxious look,
Let a sigh your fears betray,
She will read you like book,
In the old familiar way.
Trust her woman's heart to aid,
Trust her woman's heart to care,
Something whispers to the maid
Just the words you'll falter there.
Drop the flower from your coat,
Follow it, and kneeling stay;
Doubtless she the trick will note,
'Tis the old familiar wayl
Gently take her little hand,
Softly touch it with kiss,
Disregard her reprimand,
Every girl behaves like this.
Tell her that you love her more
Than mere words can e'er convey,
Swear you've never loved before,
'Tis the old familiar way.
She will blush-a tear-drop shed
(Better than mere prosy "Yes');
You will almost lose your head
At this added loveliness.
Recognize her mute consent,
Rise and to her boldly say:
May |, then, our lives cement
In the old familiar way?'
AS your lips in kisses meet,
P'raps her brothers laugh you'll hear,
She will VOW you're indiscreet,
Wrath like that you need not fear.
Never mind the tales he'll hatch
Boys grow older every day
Praps you're youngster him will catch
