The Bachelor.

Lines written while looking upon Birney's
painting.
Rich in the dreams of his fancy,
Poor in LIES real gold,
Musing on things that might be-
On hopes that ever grow cold.
Back through the dreary distance
Where his lone lost love lies dead,
His memory weaving picture
OF loves halo over her head.
He finds in the lonely present
No thought so sweet as this,
No Joy his heart can cling to
Like that last and only kiss.
He sees on the sunlit landscape
A vision of children at play;
Turn! turn! from this pleasing picture,
IT'S not for the bachelor to-day.
In silence OF HEARTFELT sorrow,
In the issues that destiny seres,
He weeps, and no womanly woman
Stands by him to heed his tears.
Rich in the dreams of his fancy,
Poor in LIES real gold,
Musing OH things that might be-
On hope that must grow cold.

My Boyhood's Dream"

We have recently received from Mr..
Robert w. Sheegog, of Dallas, Texas, a
copy of his latest piece of music, "My
Boyhood's Dream" for which he has
our thanks. This, we think, will easily
take its place with the popular music of
the day. The lines tell of country lads
love for a youthful sweetheart, who
grew up to be won by another. To
quote portion of the second verse, it is
thus told:
Though your life is given to another,
Our souls will meet upon another shore;
Where love is forever pure and holy,
And angels keep sweet vigil evermore."
This is not Mr.. Sheegog's first effort
in this direction. While still a resident
of Shreveport he became well known as
writer OF popular verse. He has to his
credit, "Take Me Back to That Old
Homestead" Nobody Said Goodbye
to Him. ss Nelsine'' and several other
pieces that were much appreciated by
the music-loving public and became
local favorites.
