 Southern readers are no doubt acquainted with the exquisite work of Virginia Frazer Bcyle. young writer of great promise, who resides Tn Memphis, Tenn. Mrs. Boyles poems appear in many of the leading maga- zines of the country, and are invariably polished gems of thought and dictfon. Her story, "Brokenburne," published a year or so since, was accorded universal praise and commendation. As a faithful deline- atfon of southern life and the old-time ne- gro, it won for the young author a place beside ablest southern writers-Thomas Nelson Page Ruth McEnery Stuart and others.

 Whereer thou art Whereier thou art my heart shall know
 thy tone,
 As silent string will feel the tensionsd
 bow;
 Whether in sunshine or in shade alone. Thy soul shall speak to mine, and my
 soul shall know.
 For we have pucked the golden Eden tree, Where tenapter never breathed, nor wo-
 man fell;
 Together Joy has come to you and me z Together we have drained the lees of he'll Where'er thou art, thy string the chord

 Unto the bow that Is my quivering soul; Dark comes life fades, but Love- ah, Godi
 shall live To shame defeat, to quicken at the goal.
