THE MOUNTAINS OF HOME

TT would love to be buried under the
shadow of Mount Abram," said a Wanderer
to friend at home.
l seem to stand upon hill
My childhood loved to find;
l turn about. My pulses thrill;
Mount Abram looms behind.
How beautiful that triple peak
That guards the Northern sky!
Wherever go tits thee, seek,
And think that thou art nigh.
climb the sides of old Mount Tom
In girlhood's happy prime;
And laugh to think of days to come,
So glad, so glad to climb.
l watch the valley far below;
The river winding through;
And cry "This mount up which we 60,
Is nothing to Old Blue.
1t shades the land. 1t knows the sea,
Home mountains are the ones for me-"
climb the heights of Switzerland;
Old Riga's peak mount;
Upon Pilatus' top l stand,
And distant hilltops count
L climb the Alps, and look upon
The picture, spread below
But dream that am gazing on
Old mountains that | know;
Mount Blue and Abram rise between
My eyes and every other scene.
No other rainbows are like those
Drawn from your mountain tops.
No showers like showers from you that rose
With rain of fragrant drops!
No other shadows like the shade
Your sunset pencils drew
On highland nook, and lowand glade,
Mount Abram and Mount Blue.
pick the eidelwess along
The Lauterbrunnen hills;
The echo of the Switzers song
My heart with music fills
But sweeter echoes seem to rise
From SUBMITS far away
Twin peaks, more lovely to mine eyes,
Are thine, my own Mount Day!
The Alpine mounts are very high
But homeland peaks they touch the sky.
l cross the heights from East to West,
And slowly upward climb;
My native mountains are the best
Though these are more sublime.
The Rocky mountain peaks are high,
But lot so good to me
AS hills OF home, and thus | cry,
wherever life may be,
l hope Mount Abram or Mount Blue
VIII guard my grave, when life is through. /"

o1D-FAsH1oNED DoucHNuTs.

How dear to my heart was that bright, sun
What joys have known in its homely re-
treat!
The nook by the ingle, the jam-closet rich
The coveted treasures of childhood so
That quaint little room with its low-studded
Held peace and contentment that wealth
cannot buy;
But sweetest it seemed when twas plainly
revealing
The odor of doughnuts that mother would
The old-fashioned doughnuts, the whole
some, sweet d0ughnuts,
The gOlden-brOwn doughnuts that mother
would fry.
The sunshine of youth shed its glory around
US,
On life's fowery pathway its glamour was
thrown,
The home was refuge where care never
found us,
And cooking day carried charm all its
own.
No oft-varied menu our appetites pampered,
No Strengthening tonic we needed to
take,
For never pang our digestion had hamper
When eating the doughnuts that mother
would make.
The puffy, raised doughnuts, the nourishing
doughnuts,
The real, homemade doughnuts that moth
er would make.
Upon the worn hearthstone are strangers
now treading,
The Railways will echo my footsteps no
more;
To see the dear roof-tree Pm longing, yet
dreading
The spell may be broken that held me of
yOre
Vainly | taste every dainty CONNECTION,
OF newfangled crulers l sadly partake;
None, none can aspire to that toothsome
perfection
That crowned every doughnut that moth
er would make.
The flawless, fresh doughnuts, the tempt
ing, round doughnuts,
The sadly-missed doughnuts that mother
would make.
