TO-DAY'S POEM
The Girl I Left Behind Me.

The danes of France are fond and
 free,
 And Flemish lips are willing. And soft maids of Italy, And Spanish eyes are thrilling; Still tho I bask beneath their smile, Their charms fail to bind me. And my heart falls back to E1rin's
 isle,
 To the girl left behind me, For she's as fair as shannon's side, And purer than its water, But she refused to be my bride Tho many a year sought her: Yet, since to France sailed away. Her letters oft remind me That [ promised never to gainsay The girl I left behind me. She says My own dear love, come
 home,
 My friends are rich and many. Or else abroad with you I'll roam, A soldier stout as any: If yo7flI come, nor let me go, I'll think you have resigned me- My heart nigh broke when I answer
 ed "no'' To the girl left behind me. For never shall my true love brave A 1ife of war and toi1ing, And never as a slu1king slave, I'll tread my native soil on, But were 1t free or to be freed, The battles close would find me To Ireland bound, nor message need From the girl I left behind me
 -Unknown.

How to Show Her Love for Inn

Dear Miss Libbey:
 We are two country girls of sixteen and seventeen and are considered the prettiest girls in the neighbcrhood. We are sisters and are both in love with a young man Of eighteen years Of age. He seems to care as much for one as much as for the other. We are both fond of each other, but we are afraid that when he does choose one Of us it will make the other grieved, so we don't know what to do, and beg your advice.
 A love affair should never be indul- ged In which might estrange the hearts of loving sisters. Both should agree to give him up, and each ex- psct to find a husband to whom her, sister had not been attracted by dtzr- ing courtship days. The loss would not be keenIy felt by the young man whose heart does not appear to have gone out to either sister.
