Harvest Song.

Summer all is pleasure past,
Summer charm is a tale that's told;
Days of reaping have come, at last.
Days Of ripeness and days Of gold;
Down the meadow-way, glad and strong,
Love comes singing his harvest song.
Love is brown with his harvest toll
Brown and brawny of limb IS ne.

Lord Of pasture, and plant and tresg
Treasure-burdened, he plods along,
Singing brightly his harvest song.

Ger the fields OF the waving grain.
Hark the echoes about him thTOng-

He longed to live hundred years. :.
And turned from dissipation: pfI
He managed daily to indulge 4
In proper recreation:
he never drank nor smoked nor chewed.
He husbanded his powers
And never varied from his rule
OF keeping proper hours.
He made a study of the forms 2
And mysteries Of diet; "4i
He stunned the busy marts of trade, o
To live in peace and quiet;
He wore hygienic hats and shoes,
Hygienic shirts and collars
He'd ne'er have slept without fresh air,
For twenty thousand dollars.
He might have lived a hundred years,
As he so much desired,

And suddenly expired.

Alas! he would not rally

No false note ever strikes in Natures
music,
Pure melody in every tone, the strain
VI A4cl liloil1 II III IT'S Ut pms lUE sweetness
Of brook, OF wind, and patter of the rain.
A drOwsy sense Of comfort in the tapping
OF waves upon the beach. A grand, deep
strain
Of organ in the long, majestic clapping
OF thunder, rumbling in the lightning's
train.
The hum of bees the insects in the meadow
Beating their wings in tones as sharp and
shrll
As tree toads utter in the falling shadow,
The happy songs of birds; all charm and
thrill.
A thousand voices touch our hearts and
senses,
From faintest echo IN a cave, TO roar
OF ocean rushing in bewildering fury
To gather in his arms the waiting shore.
