RHYME OF RHYMES.
Wild on the mountain peak the wind

Wild on the mountain peak the wind
Repeats its old refrain,
Like ghosts of mortals who have sinned
And fain would sin again.
For "wind" do not rhyme to ''mind,"
Like many mortal men.
"Again" when one reiects) 'twere kind
To rhyme as if "agen."
never met a single soul
Who spoke of ''wind'' as "wined,"
And yet we use it, on the whole,
To rhyme to "find" and blind"
We say, 'Now don't do that agen,"
When people give us pain.
In poetry, nine times in ten,
1t rhymes to "Spain" or "Dane."
Oh, which is wrong or which Is right2
Oh, which is right or wrong2
The sound in prose familiar quite
Or those we meet in song?
To hold that love- can rhyme to "provei
Requires some force of will,
Yet in the ancient lyric groove
We meet them rhyming still.
This was our learned fathers won't
In prehistoric times.
We follow it, or if we don't
We oft run short of rhymes.
Andrew Lang in Longman's Magazine.

Home Influences.

Each one of us is bound to make the
little circle in which he lives better
and happier; each of US is bound to see
that out of that small circle the widest
good may flow; each of us may have
fixed in his mind the thought that out
of single household may flow in1u-
ences which shall stimulate the whole
commonwealth and the whole civilized
world Dean Stanley.

SACRIFICE.

It seems dream-I cannot make it clear
That twas but yesterday, dear love, that thou
vert here,
But one brief day ago Ifelt thy pulsing breath.
And this is death.
The world is changed; no, nothing, nothing's
right
My soul is bathed in deepest darkest night,
A few short hours, and yet the sun g bright ray
Cannot transform my darkness into day.
For freedom All, will Cuba ever know
How her redemption fills my life with woeH
Be brave, o heart, like unto him who gave,
As thou, his all, those suffering souls to save.

THE TRYST.

Alone wait in the old beechwood,
At our tryst by the ruined mill,
And the only sound that greets my ear
Is the note of the whippoorwin.
The silent shades of the August eve
Ger the Swallowed ruins fall,
But the only sound that comes to me
Is the whippoorwill's sweet call.
wait in vain for sound more sweet,
A note that is far more dear.
TITS a signal which says one love is high,
A whistle soft and clear.
The flrefies CLEAN in the old beechwood,
Where wait by the ruined mill,
But naught hear in the silent night
Save the lonely whippoorwill.
