The Kisses Of the Frost,

Don't you feel your spirits tingling witt
new and grateful thrill
Every. nerve within you jingling with a
ring that fills the bill
Every muscle keen for action every sin.
eW strung anew,
And your active brain expelling every
shade of saddening blue
AS you rise these lovely mornings from j
bed of dreamless sleep
When the stars are getting drowsv and
the day begins To peep,
When the grasses and the bushes are
with sparkling gems embossed.
And You feel the singing kisses of the
saucy autumn frost?
All the lasstude Of summer hides its head
in lazy shame.
And, no longer being winner indOlently
jumps the game:
In the eyes there comes a sparkle of re-
suscitated light.
Putting all the listless glances full of
SleepineSS to flight,
And the brain gets up an action full OF
VigOrated snap.
And the feet ring on the pavement with
an energetic rap
As the hair by playful breeZes of vitality
is tossed,
And we feel the singing kisses of the
saucy autumn frost.
How it tints the fresh young faces Of the
maidens with a flush
That outrivals cen the softness of the
rpened peach's blush.
Gives their eyes a healthful glinting and
their step a graceful spring
As it CALAMITY salutes them with the
sweetness of its sting.
Summer has its ripe attractions, spring
its floral beauties rare,
And the winter is enhancing when will
gems it studs the air,
But to other season beauties admiration
soon is lost
When we feel the singing kisses of tht
saucy autumn frost.
Take the slowest good-for-nothing eve

Drag him from his bed of slumber whei
the day begins to dawn.
And You'll see a strange awakening in his
dull and slOthfui eyes
As the freshness of the morning treIt
him to new surprise
There is life in every zephyr, there is ton
ic in the breeze
As it whispers words of comfort to th'
slowly dying trees.
And we say that life's worth living a
whatever be the cost
When we feel the singing kisses of th'
saucy autumn frost.
