During the South African war let
ters sent home by British soldiers had
to pass through the hands of cen
sor. A certain private had sent four
or five letters home, and portions had
been obliterated by the censor and
were therefore illegible on their arrival
at their destination. He decided to
even accounts with the censor, and at
the foot of the next letter he wrote:
please look under the stamp"
At the censor's office the letter was
opened and read as usual. The officer
in charge spent some time In steam
ing the stamp from the envelope, but
his feelings can be better ina gined
than described when ne read these
words:
WAS it hard TO get off?"-EX-

"MARP PES SA."

(Marpessa, given her choice betwe
lie God Apollo and the Mortal Id
looses Idas-The following is one
e most beautiful passages in Stepht
hiIlipss famous poem:)
For pain came with the sap,
Pangs with the bloom:
This is the sting, the wonder,
Yet should I
Linger beside
Thee in felicity,
Sliding with open eyes
Through liquid bliss
Forever; still
l must grow old. All |
Should all beside thee
Apollo, and should note
With eyes that would not be
But yet are dim,
Ever so slight change
From day to day
In thee my husband;
Watch thee nudge thyself
To little offices
That once were sweet;
Slow where thou once
Vert swift, remembering
To kiss those lips which
Once thou couldst not leave
l should expect thee
BY the Western bay,
Faded, not sure of thee,
With desperate smiles,
And pitifuI devices of my dress
Or fashion of my hair:
Thou WouIdst grow kind;
Most bitter to
A woman that was loved.
l must enshare thee
To my arms, and touch
Thy pity, to but hold
Thee to my heart.
But if I live with Idas,
Then we two
On the low earth
Shall prosper hand in hand
In Odours of the
Open field, and live
In peaceful noises
OF the farm, and watch
The pastoral fields
Burned by the setting sun.
And he shall give me
Passionate children, not
Some radiant god
That will despise me quite,
But cIambering limbs
And little hearts that err.
And L shall sleep
Beside him in the night,
And fearful from some dream
Shall touch his hand
Secure; or
At some festival we two
Will wander through
The lighted city streets;
And in the crowd
I'll take his arm and feel
Him closer for the press.
SO shall we live.
And though the first sweet
Sting of love be past,
The sweet that almost
Venom is; though youth,
With tender and
EXtraVagant delight,
The first and secret kiss
BY twilight hedge,
The insane farewell
Repeated DER and DER,
Pass off; there shall
Succeed a faithful peace;
Beautiful friendship
Tried by sun and wind,
Durable

head either with or without his
body attached, laid his long and
ugly-looking rifle aside and lean

explained with anxious polite
ness, but I never told a story

His sorrow that he should thus
disappoint me suited him so
funnily that I laughed aloud;

way the laugh echoed back and
forth in that lonely gully.

me how you made the Mexican

me a bow that made me think of
