CHE 10 NY LOVE.

In the measure Of the original Irish Gaelic levs
song,l
She II my love beyond all thought.
Though she hath wrought my deepest dole;
Yet dearer for the cruel pain
Than one who fain would make me whole.
She is my glittering gem Of gems,
Who yet contemns my fortune bright,
Whose cheek but glows with redder scorn
Since mine has worn q stricken white.
She Is my sun and moon and star,
WHO yet so fur and cold doth keep;
She would not even DER my bier
One tender tear Of pity weep.
Into my heart unsought she came.
A wasting flame, a haunting care;
Into my heart Of hearts, ah why9
And left sigh forever there.

Poor Scotch Students.

Many students from their highland homes have appeared at the beginning of the academic year with bag of oat- meal and a barrel of potatoes. repre- senting the sole store of life and energy for months to come. So common was this practice that holiday in midyear was appointed, known as Mealie Mon- day. in order to give the students an opportunity of returning home to re- plenish their larder. This day is still observed as holiday.

tnls tune that ren a s1ss c trance. Ho:y long l continued in this dazed state 1 do not know, but when I recovered consciousness I found my self standing on a rocky headland gaz- ing down upon a ship which was i'm. bedded in the center of a field of rough ice. A few paces from me stood Cap tain Cleveland, gaunt and hollow eyed. No one else was in sight
 "The strange ship was the American whaler Resolution, which we discov- cred from her log had been abandoned in latitude "A degrees south and longi- tude 90 degrees west 38 years before. l could not believe my eyes when I read 90 degrees west longitude What does it mean? muttered.
 "Tt means,' said Captain Cleveland, that we have crossed the south polar continent from the eastern to the west ern hemisphere. We have done that which will make us famous.' Famous! Of what use was fame to usY
 Tt is the strangest story I ever heard," said Holroyd.
 eve found a quantity of provisions on board" the speaker continued, most of which was in good condition. And aboard the old whaler we took up our winter quarters. I won't trouble you with an account of how we passed our long, weary months of imprison- ment. I lost all account of time, but believe now that for nearly three years that ships cabin was our home.
 "Such a life will shake the founda- tions of the strongest mind, and 1t was near the end of another polar night that Cleveland suddenly went mad. clambered down upon the ice and ran wildly toward the south. I never saw him again."
 The narrator broke down completely at this point, but soon took up his story.
 Gradually, inch by inch, the ship worked her way through miles of pack ice, and one morning I awoke to find glorious expanse of open water in front of me, through which the ship slowly glided. For days-aye. weeks-I drift ed on over the deserted ocean, with never a sail in sight. The loneliness was awful. I longed for companion ship and dared not go down into the cabin, for every sound made me start in terror"
 During the latter part of his recital the wanderers voice had grown weak CT and weaker. his pauses longer and more frequent. We again offered him wine but he refused it.
 ''At length l took up my abode on deck altogether, living in the galley" he went on. And from that time until found myself-here-I remember nothing. How long-I haye-been drift ing"-
 He stopped and gazed at us with a glassy stare. Then he tried to speak again. but no words came from his lips. Suddenly his head fell forward upon his chest, and his arms dropped Imply to his side. The doctor caught him as he collapsed. and between us we car ried him to his bunk. Ere another days sun rose he was dead. The derelict had reached port at last.
 Such is the strange story of James Wilson, found on the ship Resolution, as told by himself.-St. Louis Republic.
