use them on an unsophist:cated young

promise to take her to the bayfield,.
Not infrequently she drove out herself
to the bayfield, to take the men their jug
of "swizzle," which is a nectar composed
of vinegar, molasses, water and ginger
and Cy was always on hand to receive
the jug. Once he said, after swinging it
on his muscular arm and drinking deep

This tastes the best of any l ever

"Why" asked Emmelne innocently,
and then dropped her eyes before his elo-
quent look.
They've got the ginger just right"
said the young man. That was the pro-
voking thing about him. Emmeline could
never tell precisely what effect she was
having on him. In general way she
was afraid that she knew. But then she
could hardly reproach herself. She had
not deliberately set herself to "break a
country heart for pastime ere she went

her fault. Thinking this. she bestowed

THE GLOVE AND THE LIONS.

King Francis was a hearty king and loved a royal
sport,
And day as his lions fought sat looking on
the COURT
The mobiles filled the benches, with the ladies in
their pride.
And 'mongst them sat the Count de Jorge, with
one for whom he sighed
And truly twas gallant thing to see that crown
ing show,
valor and love and king above and the royal
beasts below.
Ramped and roared the lions, with horrid laugh
ing jaws;
They bit, they glared, gave blows like beams
wind went with their paws;
With wallowing might and stiled roar they rolled
another;
The bloody foam above the bars came whisking
through the air;
Said Francis then, Faith, gentlemen, we're bet
ter here than there"
De Loree's love o'erheard the king, beauteous.
lively dame.
With smiling lips and sharp bright eyes, which
always seemed the same
She thought: The count, my lover, is brave as
brave can be.
He surely would do wondrous things to show his
love for me.
King, ladies, lovers, all look on; the occasion is
divine;
I'll drop my glove, to prove his love. great glory
will be mine"
She dropped her glove to prove his love, then
looked at him and smiled;
He bowed and then in a moment leaped among
the lions wild
The leap was quick, return was quick, he had re-
gained his place,
Then threw the glove, but not with love, right in
the laGys face.
"By heayen" said Francis, rightly done!" and
he rose from where he sat-
