ALWAYS THE SAME ANSWER.
Little Bride Simply Made Trouble by
Asking Useless Question.

1t was very warm night and peo-
pie in the boarding house had left
their bedroom doors slightly ajar
Thus any conversation of persons who
were so indiscreet as to forget the
fact was distinctly heard down the
hall, and that accounts for several
persons knowing that the little bride
who is not more than 20 years old,
said to her equally youthful husband:
Are you telling me the truth?' His
answer was not heard, but it failed to
be convincing, evidently, for the little
bride repeated the question, even unto
the third time, and at the last her
voice by no means expressed convic-
ton.
And then those who were older in
worldly wisdom pondered and com
mented.
Because, they said, that Of all use
less things, 1t was for a woman to
ask her husband if he were telling the
truth Even if he We're not, and knew
that his wife knew that he was not,
he would still declare that he was. 1t
is not in masculine nature to go back
on such statement once it is made,
said the experienced, and so the little
bride was simply making trouble for
them both

| stand at Msckinaw's deep food.
And watch the ships
Go sailing by,
The white-wineed messengers Of trade.
Seeking their marts
Far down the sky.
And intermingling on the tide.
As east and west
They come and 60.
Vaguely see another feet,
The vanished ships
Of long ago.
The countless relics of the lakes,
Who proudly once
Their commerce bore.
Who pIowed the deep and trackless wastes
And leaped to greet
The tempest's roar.
From port to port. from lake to lake,
Thro starless night
And sunlit day.
While seasons came and seasons went
They coursed along
Their wat'ry way.
No longer need have they of sail,
No longer need
OF favoring breeze,
As to and fro they slowly pass.
The specters of
The saltless seas.
No guiding hand rests on the helm
To bring them to
Their port again.
The men who trod their decks of old
Now sail the great
UnshadOwed main.
Sail on! sail on! o, spectral feet!
Wide swings for you
Our northern gate!
We hail you for the glorious past;
Ye helped to make
The nation great.
