When She Comes Home

When she comes home-the plaintive note
That quivers from the robins throat
Will ring less sad unto my heart,
So weary of the ache and smart
OF worldliness, and here and there
Where now find the face of care
The sunshine will be seen, and. oh,
The many gladnesses I'll know
When she comes home!
When she comes home-the butterfly,
Now drifting slowly, sadly by,
Will riot through the shade and shine
In quest of mystic cups of wine,
And vagrant winds from southern lands
Will bring rich jewels in their hands
In tribute, and the roses will
Their sweetest fragrances distill,
When she comes home.
When she comes home-when she comes
shall have found a brighter Rome
Than ever Caesar knew when he
Was monarch of the land and sea,
For in her sweet blue eyes I'll find
The light of love-the light designed
To lead me o er the hills of night.
And God will smile and doubts take
flight
When she comes home!

Fame

Through the land of tribulation,
Ger the river of despair,
When the taut heart snaps with tension,
Fame awaits you, smiling there.
After love has all been wasted,
After every song is sung;
Late-too late, the world will crown you
Useless! Love and song are done.
PEACE
l rest me deep within the wood,
Drawn by its silent call,
Far from the throbbing crowd of men,
On natures breast fail.
NV couch is sweet with blossoms fair,
A bed of fragrant dreams.
And soft upon my ear there falls
The lullaby of streams.
The tumult of my heart is stilled
Within this sheltered spot,
Deep in the bosom of the wood
rgetting,-and, forgot!

A Woman's Heart
A woman's heart is savings bank
Where the love you deposit lies
Gathering interest day by day
From the sunshine of the skies.
There isn't safer place, my lad,
To bury the treasure you'd keep
Than down in its beautiful vaults of
Where the tenderest blossoms sleep.
A woman's heart is the place to hide
Whatever you'd treasure best;
For she'll give it back as the years go
by
In love that's more than rest
A woman's heart is storage vault,
Where nothing breaks in to steal,
Except the honor you fail to pay
And the love you forget to feel.
A love you have placed there once
remains,
And you may forget, but she
Will give it back, if you want it so,
And smile as she hands the key.
Smile, but never forget, my lad,
That a smile is the saddest thing
When it's over the ashes of something
dead
And the heart is broken wing
A woman heart is fortress strong,
Where your foes may never come,
With prancing steeds and cleaning
And the rat-tat of the drum.
For that which YOU treasure she will
defend,
And loud as the guns may roll,
She'll stand in the breach to the very
end
And then she will fight with her soul.
A woman's heart-I would rather trust
MY all unto that, know,
For love in the keeping of such place
Will grow as the blossoms grow.

EXC NOE POEMS
From Here And There
The Stream That Is
Never Crossed

There's manv sorrow and pain, know,
As we tread the path of life;
There's many grief and lasting woe;
And the way is toll and strife.
But the hardest load we have to bear
Is the labor and strength that lost
In building the bridge with toisome care
Ger the stream that is never crossed.
We have fretting and worry from morn
till night,
And anguish weighs on the heart;
The thorny way seems hard to right,
And life is bitter part.
But there is burden greater yet,
Much peace of soul it has cost,
1t is building bridge with toll and sweat
Ger the stream that is never crossed.
There's looking for crossings all the day,
And searching along the shore
For bridge or ford long the way
We shall never travel Der.
There's signing for useless toys in vain,
And dreaming of chances lost;
But tbs hardest to bridge with might and
main
The stream that is never crossed.
Then gather the roses along the way,
And treasure the fragrance rare;
Rejoice in the bright and joyous day,
Refusing to borrow care.
For sorrow and pain will surely come,
And your soul be tried and tossed;
But don't be bridging to reach your home
Ger the stream that is never crossed.

PETRlFiED MAN FOUND

Beckley, West Va, May 20,-Coal
miners digging in mine of the East
Gulf Coal Company, unearthed the
body of petrified man.
The fossil is a perfect specimen of
the human body and apparently that
of white man.
The petrified man was found sew.
eral hundred feet below the surface
and in spot where, so far as is
known, no white man had ever before
been. Former owners OF the land
could give no explanation of the
body's presence.
The fossil was placed on exhibition
in the Office of the coal company
with the hope that some clew might
be obtained to the mans identity.
