His devotion to his wife and children
is ideal. To the latter he is not only
father but also a big, overgrown
brother. One Of his chief delights is
to get down on all tours in the nursery
and play bear with the younger ones.
When the little bears tire he some
times sings old Dutch folk-songs for
them. Though his voice was never in
tended for singing there is a certain
quaintness and rough charm about
these memories of Holland that great

The Lesson of the Archer.

Adown the glade, the mark is full
and fair;
A taut string twangs, and arrow
cleaves the air;
But some mischance-a twig, a vag-
rant gust
And the bright barb is hidden in the
dust,
Oh, Brothers of the Bow, whose
shafts have spent
Their speed, and, speeding, stunned
their targed intent.
Think We, because their steel with
earth was stained,
That you no quarry by their flight
have gained?
Not so. 'Tis good your lack of skill to
rue,
But every failure makes your aim
more true.
A touch of truth is sent to hand and
eye
By each wild missile that athwart
does fly
No yew bow yet was strained it's stub
born length,
But gave the archer's arm an added
strength.
And life's charged culver has. for les.
son, this:
'Ye learn to strike by stress of many
a miss"
