body, yet in spirit as freth as the fair
young maid who sets near lovely stream
OF water, TO which she has driven her
inilch cows, and into whose listening
ears he pours the tender tale. so old, yet
always new. She, abashed, hears not the
murmuring waters at her feet, and sees
not the browsing kline, but, scaled by the
| sllvery mountain stream, she looks
thoughtfully at the bending water-lillies
upon the bosom Of tho mirrored surface,
and reade in its graceful dependence the
talo of love the handsome stranger tells.
| The fates have determined their destiny,
| for in the next scene down Mt the mill, on
the same stream, on Il little gangway
bridge, just below the mill. you will find
this s.ccG ooupie-he fishing and she
| taking the fish from the hook, and both
| with an air Of more familiarity. The
third shows another trystring place, to
which the maiden has brought in her
hand the acknowledgement Of her love-
little bunch Of lilacs, and, standing by
her cows as they drink, the young suitor
sits just across the stream on huge
boulder, gazing intentIy into space, as if
he wished to know just how to secure
| from the idol of his heart the choice flow
ers which she holds. The fourth seems
entirely odd, since you see neither Of the
! Suitors but the COWS alone haside the
laughing waters, yet, just over the hills,
you see new settlement. 1t is not the
one above the old mill but new one,
and tho fifth and last of the series will
unfold the mystery as to the absence Of
both the parties from the usual watering
| place with the cows. It represents the
business side of life-real life-for You
| see the two walking side by side he with
an axe on his shoulder and she with
little chubby babe, into whose laughing
eyes father and mother are looking with
q Joy and delight beeMsnG Gn .heiF faces,
and 20 them the world seems but song.
