SIXTY AND SIXTEEN.

She coveted a birthday ring.
One winter, long ago;
And said, in playful. bantering way:
I'm sweet sixteen. you know"
II acquiesced. but half forgot
My promise to the maid;
80 when at last the ring l brought.
Twas my birthday instead.
She gave me thanks in her sweet way
Kisses. with smiles between,
And said: "Tll have it marked inside.
Just Sixty and Sixteen"
The years have fed in our sad home
Her voice is heard no more;
The sunshine of her happy smile
Falls not within the door.
The others of our household group
Are scattered far and wide:
With chosen mates and little ones
In earthly homes they bide.
But she who wore the birthday ring
In fairer lands. l ween,
Untouched by Time, unchanged by earth
She still is sweet sixteen.

CHAPTER XXIII.
THE EBB-TIDE RUNS.

The coracle--as | had ample reason to
know before | was done with her-was
a very safe boat for a person of my
height and weight, both buoyant and
clever in a seaway; but she was the
most cross-grained, lop-sided craft to
manage. Do as you pleased, she always
made more leeway than anything else,
and turning round and round was the
maneuver she was best at. Even Ben
Gum himself has admitted that she was
queer to handle till you knew her
way"
Certainly l did not know her way.
She turned in every direction but one,
the aae l was bound to go; the most
part of the time we were broadside on,
and l am very sure l never should have
made the ship at all but for the tide.
By good fortune, paddle as / pleased,
the tide was still sweeping me down;
and there lay the "Hispaniola" right in
the fair way, hardly to be missed.
First she loomed before me like a
blot of something yet blacker than
darkness, then her spars and hull be-
gan to take shape, and the next mo-
ment, as it seemed (for the further /
went the brisker grew the current of
the ebb), l was alongside her hawser,
and had laid hold.
The hawser was as taut as bow
string-so strong she pulled upon her
anchor. All round the hull, in the
blackness, the rippling current bub-
bled and chartered like a little noun
tain stream. One cut with my sea
gully and the "Hispaniola" would go
humming down the tide.
So far so good; but it next occurred
to my recollection that a taut hawser,

 Charles Heyer may be the candidate for Supervisor from MT. Talcott's district, and Alex Hirschberg may elect to run from Supervisor Church's district. An attempt is being made to persuade John R.
