SOUR GRAPES.

Oh. the mountain calls and the ocean
calls.
And forest and river and lake,
To come away for season to play;
you're dreaming, dear one awake! j
For danger turks on the mountain
side,
And the sea is treacherous sea,
And the forest and stream, and lake
hut seem

But tigers and bears are everywhere,
And as for streams and lakes,
They are full of hotels and bowling
swells.
And jiggers and bugs and snakes!
So we will abide our home beside.
Nor seek to wander afar,
But will seek each night some near
delight;
Well go on trolley car.
We will rise and 60 where the
breezes blow
On the modern, perpetual plan,
And take our ease meath the paper
trees
BY a whirling electric fan.
Let others roam, and they will, from
home,
But we, my dear. shall not go.
Except to fare by t,lasey somewhere
