Tl1e birds THAT Say "Gooa-Bye."

Across the cotton field the notes
Come to my alien ear,
Well flute the little feathered throats--
How musically clear
They seem to speak, the unseen birds,
MY fancy fits their cry
With paintive yet with hopeful words.
''Good-byeu' they call, "Good-bye!"
Hurry backr'
Who are you. little feathered friendsf
I catch glimpse OF wings,
Yet when the clustered pine-bough bends,
Or wild grape garland swings.
Among the flowers, among the tall,
Dead corn-stalks, brown and dry,
I hear the soft, unceasing call,
"Good-byei Good-bye! Good-byev'
Hurry backr'
When have donned my pilgrim shocn
And passed, pilgrims do.
This golden Southern afternoon
My dreams will bring anew:
The far-off pine woods / shall see
Against the blue, blue sky;
Across the cotton field to me
The birds will call 'Good-bye"

walker whiteside,s Pretty Toast.

1t is seldom an actor has the compliment
paid him by society of postponing an i'm
portant social event so as not to conflict
with the date of his engagement. Many
times in the smaller cities q reception,
musicale or ball will seriously interfere
with the attendance at the theater, and
the actor consequently suffers. Walker
Whiteside. whose new romantic comedy
drama 1.-THE Red Cockade" will be seen at
English's next week, had been announced
to appear in a certain Wisconsin city on
a certain date recently. A society leader in
the town discovered that the date set for
the first big reception of the season would
conflict with Whiteside's engagement. She
Immediately sought the local manager and
requested that Mr.. Whiteside play his en-
gagement earlier or later. The manager in
formed her of the impracticability of such
a move, for it might necessitate the rear
rangement of entire route. The woman
then deliberately postponed the night Of
the reception until after Mr.. Whteside's
engagement, to which the entire social cir
Gle turned out. The local manager Informed
the manager on his arrival of the honor be-
slowed on the actor, and in characteristic
speech before the curtain that night Mr..
Whiteside made the following gallant re-
turn:
Ladies and Gentlemen-I have come and
you have welcomed me. You have APP
