THE LAD IN TOWN, OR ROSES
DREAM.

There lives pretty lad in town,
I'm sure he's simply fine;
Some day I know he'll gain renown,
I wish that lad was mine!
I look into his lovely eyes,
And there my heart has flown;
To me he is priceless prize
I wish he was my own!
I see him coming through the grove;
And now he's in the hall,
I quickly go and meet my love-
To me, he's "all and ALL"
And then we have tete-tete;
His face so softly glows;
And then I'm sure hear him say:
81 love you dearly, Rose.'
And then the pretty, naughty lad,
Just kissed me on my lips,
And I pretended to be mad,
But didn't care two thrips!
And then he whispered SOft and sweet
And we were side by side;
Our glances seemed just then to meet
He plead: "Please be my bride.'
And then my heart did fairly futter;
1 tried to feign surprise;
But not a word could I then utter;
I answered with my eyes.
And when on tiptoe comes the spring.
And wintry winds have fled,
When zephyr's pretty flowers bring
This lad and I will wed.
And in cozy cottage dwell,
In the sweet realms of bliss,
Well learn to love each other we'll,
Well ne'er forget to kiss.
And Ii will be an April day,
All sunshine and no showers
I'll be as happy as fay
In Flora's sylvan bowers.
Why, where the mischief is the chap?
Things are not what they seem,"
I've just awoke from sweet nap
And this is all dream.

The dignity of Woodrow Wilson is one of his
distinguishing qualities. He may fail to make good
in the larger things anticipated of him. but if that
happens he can be relied upon to conduct his rerea,
in good order and seemness. When Colonel Wat.

son that gentleman illuminated the character of the
discussion by saying absolutely nothing. When all
kinds of people were decrying the Cabinet quaica
tons of the Nebraskan statesman who has made n.

ted tine inconsequential reflection that Mr. Bryan
had many thousands Of warm and faithful friends
When he said that he was going to Bermuda to rest
