THE OLD YEAR AND THE NEW.

The stars look down in their silvery light
On the old year, bidding its last good night
To the world it had carried on its way,
Through storm and sunshine, day after day
The sum of its tragedies all had been told;
Its measure of sadness and joy enrolled
On the tablets of memory and hearts OF men
To be, n the future, recalled again.
The shadows are falling away from the night;
The east is aglow with rosy light;
The angels recorded another BIRTH
New Year is saying good morning" TO
earth.
o, waken, We children Of men, and behold
The wonderful things the year will unfold,
And take We your portion OF darkness or light
Till as an Old Year it bids you good night"

pleX and battling considerations, that
their honeymoon became success.
1t was well along in their month that
this happened.
Rose had spent maddening sort of
day, day that had been all edges,
trying not to let herself feel hurt over
fantastic secondary meanings which 1t
was possible to attach to some OF the
things Rodney had said trying to be
cheerful and sensible, and to ignore
the patent fact that his cheerfulness
was as forced and unnatural a thing
as hers. The children-as q rule the
best-behaved little things in the world
had been refractory. SO, after their
supper, when they'd finally gone Off to
Sleep and Rose had rejoined Rodney
in the sitting room, she was In state
where 1t did not take much to set her
off.
1t was not much that did; nothing
more, indeed, than the fact that she
found her husband brooding in front
of the fire, and that the smile with
which he greeted her was little too
quick and bright and mechanical, and
that II soon faded out. The Rodney
of her memories had never done things
like that If you found him sitting in
chair, you found him reading book.
When he was thinking something out
he tramped back and forth, twisted his
face up, made gestures. That habit
couldn't have changed. 1t was Just
that he didn't care to be natural
with herl Couldn't feel at home with
her Before she knew It, she was cry
ing.
He asked, in CONSERVATION, what
the matter was.
Nothing" she said. Absolutely
nothing. Really"
"Then it's just-that you're not hap
py, with me, like this" He brought
