rhasa Are The DAYS.

| These Are The Days.
These are the days-these days of fall
! Now through the haze there comes call
| Far OF and sweet. thrilling hail
| That lures the feet to some dim trail.
To some worn way through solitudes
Where autumn gray, in silence Droous-
The hills, asleep in drifts of smoke;
Brown leaves that heap beneath the OAK
Red leaves that drip from tree and vine
AS though they sip some wondrouS vine
That makes them browse, all languor nileq'
Their lazy boughs stained where IL spiiieo'
The partridge whirrs. the pheasant drums,
The squirrel chirrs--the woodland huns,
When early gales strip bush and tree.
AS ragged sails are stripped at sea,
And spicy leaves blow high and low
In airy weaves flung to and fro.
The changing skies bend to the stream
That idly lies as though adream-
And still the way leads on and on
AdOwn the day from night to dawn,
And through the haze there floats call
These are the days-these days of fall!
