A year-old wife went down the loaning
To meet her goodman did she go:
The bees We're In the clover droninR.
The cushats cooling soft and low:
20 will he never Gomez she cried.
And why is he 50 Slow
Above the burn there came moaning
That summer night n year ago:
y sound like wind through pine trees
groaning.
Tossing the branches to and fro:
20 will he ever Gomez she sighed.
And something told her No
All what was that went up the loaning :,
A shadow cast at sunset glow?
While clearer came the woeful moaning.
Twas like death drge soft and slow.
My love. come back to me-" she
cried.
Why did ] let you go?"
A year. old widow walks the loaning
Her head Is bent her step Is slow
Again she hears the kelpie moaning.
As on that night year ago
kind death, come soon, come SOON
she cries.
For Q l want him so!'

LONG F,e4v ON TOBACCO VAIN
English Kings and the Church Unable
to Stop Growing Of the Weed.

Tobacco raising In England has
varied and checkered history. First
introduced there In 1866. the Eliza
bethan courtiers soon cultivated Xix.
ing for it. Ere long the common peo-
pie followed their example. and
smoking became universal habit
among the English. They began to
import large quantities of the Vir
gilman weed and soon after learned
TO grow 1t for themselves. When the
British agriculturists had mastered
the art OF raising tobacco at home and
conquered the climatic difficulties at
hrst encountered In producing 1t. the
practice of smoking was denounced
IL court
James l Issued counterblast to
the weed. Charles 1 was no less OPP
posed to it. He also adopted strong
measures to discourage Its use and
prevent its cultivation. The church
likewise took up arms against smok
ing In spite Of the royal edicts
against tobacco 1t continued to be
grown surreptitlously to a large ex-
tent
Charles ii imposed such heavy
duty on the native article as. 1t was
thought. would have the effect Of ex-
Guiding 1t from British crops. The
increased tax. however. did not pre-.
vent large numbers from being inde-
pendent of foreign countries for their
supply of this commodity. In those
days 1t was not as easy for the ON
cials to make long tour OF inspection
as 1t is now. Eventually, In 1882, a
law was passed making it illegal to
grow tobacco in any quantity in Eng
land. The same law, Of course, ap-
piled to Scotland and Ireland. In the
latter country tobacco has traditions
Enthusiastically Its own.

But next day in comes Miss Col

der her arm. She would really like
to look at those $3.50 shoes. and she
finally buys them. And won't we
give her the change back. he says
with smile that will tilt most men
from their balance.
"Of course. II man made such a
proposition we'd call the police. but
we're apt TO bow to the Miss College
Maid with the smile. and hand over
the $3.50 to her, as II she had asked
for only pair OF extra shoe strings.
Then while Miss College Maid trots
off to the matinee to spend our $3.50
We puzzle our heads as to whether
we have been buncoed or whether we
have buncoed dad although. to be
sure, we charge it to his account.

soon learns that she needs new pair
