THE OLD HOME HAUNrs.
There's sound that rings in my e
to-day

There's sound that rings in my ears
to-day,
That echoes In vague refrain,
The ripple of water DER smooth washe ed
clay,
Where the wall-eyed pike and the black
bass play,
That makes me yearn, in quiet way,
For my old tly-rod again.
Rack to the old home haunts again,
Back where the clear lake lies;
Back through the woods
Where the black bird broods,
Back to my rod and dies.
I'm longing to paddle the boat to day,
Through water-logged grass ana
reeds;
Where the musk'rat swims, and the
cat.tails sway;
Where the air is cool, and the mist is
Where ripples dance in the same old
way,
Underthe tangled weeds.
Back on the old oak log again,
Back by the crystal brook;
Back to the bait,
And the silent wait,
Back to my line and hook.
| wish | could wade by the waters edge,
Where the fallen leaves drift by;
Just to see, in the shadow of the ledge,
How dark forms glide, like wood
mans wedge,
Through driftwood piles and the coarse
marsh sedge,
And to hear the bttern cry.
Back where tho tadpoles shift and
sink,
Back where bu ll-frogs sob;
Back just to float
In the leaky boat,
Back to my dripping bob.
oh, it's just like this on each misty day,
It's always the same old pain
That struggles and pulls in the same
old way
To carry me off for little stay
By the waters edge, in sticky clay,
To fish in the falling rain.
Back to my long black rubber boots,
Back to my old patched coat;
Back to my rod
And the breath of God
Homeland my leakv boat.

The Widows Mite.

The man who has no pity for the
fatherless and widows fortunately
finds little sympathy in this land,
says the Youths Companion. The
life of Henry A. Wise records the
discontinue Of such an oppressor.
There was an auction sale in the
little house, and one after another
the widows few possessions fell be-
meath the hammer. Presently the
auctioneer took up large bowl
which happened to be full of sugar,
and the poor woman anxious to save
it's contents, fastened into the next
room to find something in which to
put them.
just as she returned the auctioneer
cried, "Sold!" and the purchaser in
sisted that the sugar was his. The
widow pleaded for the little that
was much to her, but the man was
| obdurate, and murmurs of indigna-
ton arose from the crowd. Angry
at this demonstration, the man
turned, and his eye rested on Mr..
| Wise.
"Mr. Wise," said he, "you are a
lawyer. Am I right or not? If you
say l am not, [ will give back the
sugar. If you say l am, [ am en-
titled to it, and III keep it,"
MY friend" replied Wise, in his
gentlest tone, you put delicate
and unpleasant responsibility on me.
Hadn't you better decide the matter
for YOURSELF"
NO" replied the fellow, CURLY
II know what your opinion is going
to be, and | want you to give it sc
that this whole crowd can hear it,"
Then" said Wise, II advise you
that the sugar is yours. The widow
cannot take it from you. She has
no redress"
AHA" cried the man, turning tC
the spectators. What did 1 tel

"Stop!' Numbered Wise, who's,

remains for me to tell you that
charge you five dollars for my advic,
and / demand immediate payment
If you tritle with me in the matte
of payment you will most certainl,
regret it,"
The man turned scarlet, and
fumbling in his wallet, produced
five dollar bill. The crowd yelle,
it's approval, but suddenly becam
silent as Mr.. Wise walked up to tn
widow and said:

Life's CALLING burdens will be cast away
And | shall lie beneath the brooding

Autumn STYLES.

Early autumn will reveal the love-
Hest of blue gowns. The beautiful
marine and neapolitan dyes are be-
coming to both light and dark hair
ed women. All the new woods are
light and pliable, which fact indi-
Gates that the clinging style of gown
ing is not passed. There are i'm
ported wool crepons that are striped
like Bedford cord, and very hand
some gowns will these make with
velvet trimmings.
During the cool season one can find
use for a number of extra 81 * waists,
and [ would like to remind the wo-
man who must buy economically
that Just now Is an excellent time
to pick up "short lengths of silk. l
would not recommend that novel
ties be selected, for these before q
season is over have often lost their
style, but the plain colors, stripes
and checks and modest brOcades are
always in good taste. A fashionable
dressmaker tells me that the popu-
lar bodice model Of the coming sea-
son is the one with yoke of lace or
other sheer fabric. Sleeves are also
of transparencies. This being the
case small and inexpensive piece
of silk will often serve in the max
ing of an elaborate bodice. Tiny
ribbon quillings are to be used in
abundance, edging the many yards
of gauze rutf1ing that will appear on
bodices and entire costumes. Skirts

be of white, black and in neutral
shades of yelling.
Sleeves are creeping down off the
