The vane Of golden weather.
An opal flame. a Jet Of spray.
About a sunny fountain.
I skim the vino wave of the wheat

The soul OF speed and glitter
Oh, hear the gush Of rising song.
The glad, h~igh-hearted twitter.
Till, like a bullet from the sun.
L shoot beneath the rafter.
And, in the chorus OF a nest,
The twitter turns to Laughter.

Legend of st. Patrick.

st. Patrick was a holy man.
And minstrel. too, OF old.
And bore on all his wanderings
A harp with strings OF gold.
When Erin's heroes went to war.
With sword and lance and shield.
In early times. they lacked a flag
To follow on the field.
So good st. Patrick took the leaves
Upon the willow tree
And stitched the emerald strips to make
A banner broad and free.
ere his task was done he heard
Til trumpet's wild refrain.
And nailed it TO his golden harp,
And Joined the march again.
The banner of the willow leaves
Grew dry and fell to dust;
The strings that rang to battle songs
Were soon devoured by rust;
still on Erin's ancient flag
The willows tint Is seen.
And still the legendary harp i
Aoorns its folds of green.

AS 1t was through the Christian Church
that the monotheism of the Jew conuuered
the world, so it may be through the Ameri-
cans that the English ideals expressed II,
the English language may make the tour OF

act- For there is too much reason to fear
taat many Americans regard the English
with the same unflial ingratitude that
many Christians regard the Jew. 1t is az

From the purely artistic point of view the
power to blush is one of the most requisite
and commendable of physical endowments.
oid men are past blushing; very young
children. idiots and the lower animals can
not blush. but ii appears that some tribes
still on the outskirts of barbarism preserve
the faculty TO an astonishing degree. The
blush is a grace of life, a mark of vitality
and OF youthfulness. 1t betokens q great
cerebral sensibility. seconded by a perfectly
sensitive skin. BY a sort of instinct for
personal defense, at the slightest attack
