THE QUEER OLD WOMAN.
BY MARIAN DOUGLAS

BY MARIAN DOUGLAS.
How is it in the glass see
A queer old woman look at me?
There are odd lines about her eyes,
And gray hair on her forehead lies;
Her cheek is wan, and sharp her chin;
She does not seem to me akin.
And yet she says-it can't be true
That 1--WE are one instead of two"
l know we never shall agree,
She makes such rude remarks to me,
My bonnet, with fresh garlands hung,
''Was costly folly; t is too young
must not buy white plumed hat
81 have outlived the time for that
And this choice gown of softest pink,
"Of my lost childhood" makes her think;
And if Pm vexed, she says, forsooth,
That "she can only speak the truth
am not old; yet, if were,
could forget it but for her.
Hopes May time still about me seems;
gather violets in my dreams;
But when do, she shakes her head
"Those flowers" she says, "long since have fled
Lies golden rod and asters blue
Are all the blossoms left for you"
Oh, if this stranger face would pass
From out my haunted looking glass,
And again from it could see
My dear old self look back at me
My pretty self, that use to wear
A wreath of roses round her hair,
And smile to hear her f1atterers say
The face beneath was fair as they,
might be happy. But, oh, no!
This queer old woman will not go;
And since I'm forced with her to dwell,
We might be friends, perhaps, as well;
For l, at last, am sure t true
That we are one instead of two!
