Should you be reposing in summer In
a meadow and a grasshopper happens
to jump on you by no means drive
him away. Welcome and cherish him,
which is best done by perfect qul-
escence.
Whether his usual merry disposition
or his blithe hopping over all sorts of
difficulties has. any association with
the notion we know not. but the popu-
larity of the grasshopper is ancient
and distinguished enough. the Greek
species having been favorites with all
the poets from Homer and Hesiod to
Anacreon and Theocritus. SO much
did the Athenians admire them that
they were accustomed to fasten golden
figures of them In their hair. and they
were always addressed by the most
endearing epithets. The sound of the
grasshopper is always welcome and
naturally of good omen. alluding. as II
were. to summer and sunshlne.-Gen

Had a chance to shape my life anew,
The sense to know the shoddy from the time,
! could not hope to gain so fair bliss
As lavish fortune gave me, dear, in you
! could not hope so fair bliss to gain,
The lack whereof would leave existence vain,
Wherefore have ! no shadow of desire
To blot away my penury and pain.
My penury and pain to blot away
All, eomrade of my spirit, who can say
That he has pain whose unavailing panss
So soft hand is lifted to allay?
And penury? Why, that is but a name
To whose feels divine affections fame.
Better the glow of mutual love beside
The humblest hearth than loneliness in fame,
! ask no more than just to bide with you,
To blend little gladness with the rue,
And, when my clay is mingled with the dust
To dream Of our delight the ages through.
