A man stood beside the car track in
front of Carnival Court and signaled
an approaching car. The motorman
grinned at him, kicked the gong and
put on more power
And while the motOrman grinned at
the man whom he was leaving behind,
an oil wagon drove upon the track in
passing a stone wagon. The motorman
was shocked when he looked ahead and
saw the wagon upon the track.
Bump went the car against the other
vehicle and stopped, and there was a
great TODD of taking names of wit

p The narrowing tale goes on.
Where a few years ago every
body drank coffee, several cups

life people who imagine they
cannot drink it. (The underscor-

carpenters, laborers and athletes
have discontinued or cut down

But it remained for the man

Notwithstanding the enormous

My heart it wandered far away among
the gypsy tents,
know not how it learned the road,
or found the patteran,
But throng and brambIe drew aside,
And copse and thicket opened wide.
While creepers waved long arms TO
guide
Among the upland scents,
Till close among the trees tire gleam-
ed the white spread cahayan.
But when it wandered home again,
I knew it not for mine,
So sweet it was of wood smoke and
the breath of sun-warmed pine;

ed to give it room,
So strange and sweet it laughed tc
me from out the starlit gloom.

But rock and sapIing lent their aid.

with dark-eyed gypsy folk.

learned its own desire;
Or why within its mem'ry chung
The gypsy jargonings chance-fung,
Or found so ready on its tongue
The Romany they spoke,
While night winds Weakened into flame
the embers of their fire.
But when it fitted home to me

So wild and strange the moor wind
sang within it's sudden call;
| only heard the gypsy folk trail by
with covered vain,
And found spray of jasmine flung I
within my latticed pane.
