THE MILLIONAfRES DREAM.

On the great estate,
That came co him by a kindly fate,
A gray-,iaired man in the fading day
Is raking slow the freshmown hay.
In his eye the remembered JOY
OF a care-free farmers boy;
Now. as then. his nostrils fill
With the meadows perfume till
Once again he's treading where
The breath of clover fills the air;
And beside the moss grown fence
Wild red roses shed their scents.
From the thistle, swaYng, free,
A lark pours forth his melody
But no note has he so clear
None so sweet to the dreamer's ear,
AS was hers in the long ago,
When the sunsets golden glow
Fell where fragrant windows lay.
And she raked with him the hay.

WOMAN.

There is not the slightest doubt
That to man she is a blessing,
Even though. year in, year out,
All the while she keeps him guessing,
She is faithful, fond and fair,
Gentle, loving, kind, and tender,
Willing JOY or grief to share
Gladly with her brave defender.
She was born to soothe and bless,
Man may worship or command her;
But he may as we'll confess
He will never understand her.

I'M GROWING OLD.

NY days pass pleasantly away;
My nights are blest with sweetest sleep
I feel no symptoms of decay
have no cause to mourn nor weep.
NV foes are impotent and shy.
My friends arc neither false nor cold,
And yet. of late, | often sigh
I'm growing cid!
NV growing talk of oldon times.
My growing thirst for carly news.
My growing apathy for rhymes.
MY growing love for easy shoes,
My growing hate of crowds and noise,
MY growing fear of taking cold,
All whisper. in the plaincst voice,
I'm growing old!
I'm growing fonder of my staff;
I'm growing DINNER in the eyes
I'm growing fainter in my laugh
I'm growing deeper in my signs;
I'm growing careless OF my dress;
I'm growing frugal of my gold;
I'm growing wise; I'm growng--yes,
I'm growing old!
I see it in my changing taste
l see 1t in my changing hair:
see 1t in my growing waist;
see it in my growing heir
A thousand signs proclaim the truth,
As plain truth was ever told,
That even in my Wanted YOUTH
I'm growing old!
All, ME! My very laurels breathe
The tale in my reluctant cars,
And every boon the hours bequeath
But makes me debtor to the years
Yen Flatterys honeyesl words declare
The secret she would vain withhold,
And tells me in How young -ou are
I'm growing old
Thanks for the years whose rapid fliSh
NY somber muse too sadly sings;
Thanks for the CLEANS of golden light
That tint the darkness of their wings
The light that beams out from the sky,
Those heavenly mansions to unfold,
Where all the blest and none may sigh,
I'm growing old!'

MY MOTHERS VOICE.

It's accents on my lonely hours;
Like healing sent on wings OF sleep.
Or dow 70 the unconscious flowers.
I can forget her melting PRAYER
While leaping pulses madiy n.y.
But in the still. unbroken air,
Her gentle tone comes stealing by;
And years, and sin and folly flee,
And leave me at my mothers Knee.
The evening hours the birds. the flowers
The starlight, moonlight, all that's meet
For heaven in this lost world OF ours,
Remind me of her teachings sweet.

My thoughtlessness hath drunk up

And there's a mildew In the lapse

But natures book is even yet

And night had on her silver wing
When bursting leaves, and diamond grass,
And waters leaping TO the light,
And all that makes the pulses pass
With wilder sweetness throng'd the
night;
When all was beauty then have I,
With friends on whom my love is flung,
Like myrrh on winds of Ara.by,
Gazed up where the evenings lamp Is
