~Iavorite Poems.

Home. Sweet Home.-John How
ard Payne, American dramatist actor
and song writer, was born at New
York City. June 9. 1872. and died al
Tunls, April 10, 1852. He made his
first appearance on the stage in New
York City in 1909. retiring in 1892
to become American consul at Tunis.
As American consul he lived in Tunis
from 1913 to 1915. and from 1871
to 1852.
Mid pleasures and palaces though Ne
may roam,
BE It ever SO humble, there's no place
like home;
A charm from the sky seems to hal
low us there.
Which seek through the world, IS
ne'er met with elsewhere.
Home. home, sweet, sweet home,
There's no place like home; there's
no place like home,
An exile from home. splendor dazzles
in vain;
O, give me my lowly matched cottage
again!
The birds singing gayly, that anne to
my call
Give me them-and the peace Of
mind, dearer than all!
Home. home, sweet. sweet home
There's no place like home; there's
no place like home.
How sweet tits to sit meath a fond
fathers smile,
And the cares of a mother to soothe
and beguile'
Let others delight mid new pleasures
TO roam,
But give me. o. give me. the
pleasures of home!
Home, home. sweet. sweet home,
There's no place like home; there's
no place like home!
TO thee I'll return, overburden'd
with care:
The hearts dearest solace will smile
on me there;
No more from that cottage again will
roam;
Be II ever so humble, there's no place
like home.
Home, home, sweet, sweet home'
There's no place like home; there's
no place like home'

in Dayton, said of a proposed tariff
law:

"A pound of sugar. If you please.
The grocer lifted the lid of the
graduated sugar bin, but the little
boy said:
'No-lump sugar. please
