Sweet Evelina.
212.6
Way down in the meadow.
Where the lily first blows,
Where the winds from the mountain
Never ruffles the rose.
Lives fond Evelina, the sweet little dove,
The pride of the valley. The girl that I love.

When the Bishop oarne in softly, with a face rene but pale,
And a silence indescribably pathetic in its power,
Such as might have reigned in heaven then that…

Flushed with happy dreams to the young heart'a core,
Fresh, like her larks, from a dew bath in the dulsics
Wiatry foes behind her, and her bliss before

Is the most unalluring of jades;
She has little or no sense of humor,
And her fables are worse than George Ade's-

The Rooter's Rotary.

From the lady dressed in red
With a hat upon her locks
Bigger than the batter's box,
With a tongue that wags along
From the first tap of the gong;
"Who is that nice looking man
Over there the one that ran?"…

I see a grand old castle.
With turret tall and grim,
O'ergrown with climbing ivy.
Till you scarce can see within.
And it the quaint old ruin.
That stands upon the wall,

In joyous…

And grandsire's clock upon the stair,

For ninety-odd years that cot has stood there,
Surrounded by trees and a fence that is worn,
I's the home of my forefathers, there I was born

HARD TO BEAT.
WILLIAM A. THOMPSON.

Last night I held a little hand
So dainty and so neat,
Methought my heart would burst with joy,
So wildly did it beat.
No other hand into my soul
Could greater solace bring,
Than that I held last…

Toll on! Toll out Yo ephemeral train,
Wh ouild in the tossing and treacherous main;
Toll en! For the wisdom of man ye mock.
With your sand based structures and domes of rock;
Your estumes the fathomless fountains…

One sitmmer's evening, ere the sun went down,
When city men were hustening from the town.
To reach their homes-some near at hand, some far-
By snerting train, by omnibus, or car,
To be beyond the reach of city din…

You've seen the cur dog chase the cat
As though to eat her up-
You've seen the cat's tail swell before
This quite ferocious pup.
You've seen the cat then turn around,
All ready for a fray:
And then you've seen…
Welcome Stranger.

Like a large check from a departed aunt;
Like a young chicken in a restaurant;
Like a half dollar in last year's vest;
Like a brief sermon on the day of rest;
Like a late breakfast on a holiday;
Like the kind note…
Two Lovers.

Two lovers by a moss grown spring,
They leaned soft cheeks together theres
Mingled the dark and sunny hair.
And heard the wooing th thrushes sing.
Oh, budding time!
Oh, love's best…
