A pearly she'll was in my hand;

One lingering look behind l cast;
A wave came rolling high and fast,
And washed my line away.

With every mark on earth from me,
A wave of dark oblivions sea

To leave no track or trace.
And yet, with Him who counts the sand
And holds the water in His hands.

The low tone of their con,,> Nation,
the absence of her usual reserve, her
evident interest in his words, all these
conspired to thrill him with hope that
he had never before dared to entertain.
Not that he was so conceited to believe
that she cared for him, but he hoped
that if he could have chance, just o
fair chance to woo her, he might posi-
bly, win her love.

He could not trust himself further,
and arose from his seat. She arose
also. Good night, Mr.. Owen,' she
said, and her voice was softer and gen.
tier and sweeter than he had ever be-
fore heard it. She entered her room
before the other ladies had left the par
lor. She closed the door and paced
slowly backward and forward in deep
thought, then she took from her pocket
a note. 1t was the one from Fairy
Grandma. Let us read with her:

"Does music often affect you so?" she

"Never before"

happen by that time. He could Ger

after that-he could look forward to the

fear, sorrow or distrust; and for the
others, hope tinged the horizon of the
future with heavenly hues. Roscoe
was surprised at the warm poetical vein
of fancy which seemed to underlie the
nature of his love, though only to be
seen when she was thus free from con.
straint.
"Look at those crimson leaves" she
exclaimed, pointing to distant tree

in the light of the setting sun. "They

A flock of aquatic birds flew southwark

Sunday afternoon we went up
to see the Lion, the pride of Luz
cerne. 1t is carved on the nat
ural rock in sort of wild park.
The rock was first smoothed off
for some seventy-fve feet above
the river, then this superb animal
was carved on it, representing
lion severely wounded by dart
sticking entirely through him.
But even while dying, he still at
tempts to protect the shield of
France, held in his front paw.
The face stands for such agony,
that one feels the tears starting
while one looks. The whole con-
ception is in memory of the brave
Swiss Guard, who were shot down
at their post, while defending the
Tuileries, and the Inflated King
of France, in 1892. Underneath
the statue are the names of the

One of the attractions in Luz
cerne, is a sort of park, which
they call Glacier Garden 1t
is many remains of the workings
of a prehistoric glacier-the holes
which the water made in rocks,
some of them very deep and twen-
ty feet across. In one the water
still falls from height, and the
stone that has fallen into de-
clivity, still grinds away and
shows exactly now the older and
larger holes have been made. The
fossil remains in many of the
rocks, that have been found here,
are on exhibition, and distinctly
show tropical palm leaves and
ferns, thereby proving that Lu-
cerne was first a tropical region,
before the glacial period. | was

There was also in the garden
perfect copy of those st. Bernard
rescue houses, that are scattered
all through the Alps. They are
furnished with only the actual
necessities of life and the reme-
dies for saving life. The st. Ber-
nard dogs were not there, but
otherwise, it was an exact model.
A party of several lost their lives
the other day, and the only sur
vivor has lost his mind under the
terrible struggle.
