EETHAN4SIA.
BY ANGELA GORDON

BY ANGELA GORDON
Starit silence eirdled the snowy places
W here my soul and I, keeping night-long vigil,
Saw pale procession of spectre faces
Risen from Lethe
Ghosts of love and friendship, and hopes that
never
Passed the shining portals of FL Dorado.
All the Might -have-beens of my vain endeavour
Weeping went by me.
Fear then gripped me close. for q voice like
thunder
Shattered silence trumpeting words I knew not
Till my soul-iIlunined by Dawns red wonder
Whispered and told me.
Straightway all those grievous ones left their
weeping,
Faded starlike. at the behest of Morning;
So on me 4 peace beyond dreamleSs sleeping
Fell. soft snow falls.

TIE FAIRY DANCERS.

BY DORA SIGERSON.
Deep in the woods recesses cool
see the fairy dancers glide,
In cloth CT gold, in gown of green.
Ny lord and lady, side by side.
But who has hung from leaf to leaf.
From flower TO flower. a silken twine,
a cloud Of grey that holds the dew
In globes of dear. enchanted wine,
Or stretches far from branch TO branch,
From thorn to thorn. in diamond rain
Who caught the cup of crystal wine,
And hung so fair in shining chain?
'Tis death the -pider. in his net
Who lures the dancers as they glide,
In cloth of gold. in gown of green,
My lord and lady, side by side.

CORNISH WIND.

BY ARTHUR SYMONS
There is a wind in Cornwall that l know
From any other wind. because il smells
OF the warm honey breath Of heather bells
And of the seas salt: and these meet and flow
With such sweet SAVIOUR In such sharpness met
That the astonshed sense in ecstasy
Tastes the ripe earth and the unvintaged sea-
Wind out of Cornwall wind If l forget;
Not in the tunneled streets where scarce men
breathe
The air they live by. but wherever seas
Blossom In foam, wherever merchant bees
Volubly traffic upon any heath;
If / forget shame mei or if find

having been born in the preceding century. The
other two are Jeanne d'Albret, Margaret's daugh-

the wife of Ercole, Duke of Ferrara. All these
royal women knew troubled days and all were

mother, Margaret of Angoueme, is remembered
as the author OF the "Heptarneron," as the found

IN silence the popular version Of why

Inc panic did not occur because since

gold to supply the money market

TO Providence and not to policy. When

In referring to the president, he
