The Old Arm Chair.
I lovo It, I love It; and who shall daro
To chide me for loving that old arm
chair? I've treasured it long as a sainted
prize;
I've bedewed it with tears, and em
balmed, it with sighs.
'Tis bound by a thousand bands to ray
heart;
Not a tie will break, not a link will
start.
Would ye learn tho spell? a mother
sat there;
And a sacred thing is that old armchair.
In childhood's hour I lingered near
Tho hallowed seat with listening ear;
And gentle words that mother would
give
To fit me to die, and teach me to live.
She told me shame would never, be
tide, With truth for my creed and God for
my guide;
She taught me to lisp my earliest
prayer,
As I knelt beside that old arm-chair.
I sat and watched her many a day,
When her eye grew dim, and her
locks grew gray;
And I almost worshiped her when she
smiled,
And turned from her Bible to bless
her child.
Years rolled on; but the last one sped,
My idol was shattered, my earth-star
fled;
I learned how much the heart can bear,
When I saw her die in that old arm
chair. 'Tis past, 'tis past; but I gaze on it
now
With quivering breath and throbbing
brow;
'Twas there she nursed me; 'twas
there4she died;
And memory flows with lava tide.
Say it is folly, and deem me weak,
While 'the scalding drops start down
my cheek;
But I love it, I love it, and cannot tear
My soul from a mother's old arm
chair.
-Eliza Cook.
only knows how we did manage to live
until a job hove in sight and per
mitted me to capture it.
But right here is where some more
of Dorothy's bright ideas came into
play, and her rosy optimism made
our frugal fare during those dark
days taste like feasts that old Lucullus
gave to his friends.
When the job came I stuck to it,
and as time went on the matter of tak
ing a bridal tour lapsed. But it was
not forgotten. Dorothy's brain con
ceived a brilliant idea and harbored
it for five short and happy years.
About a week before the fifth anniver
sary of our marriage Dorothy sprung
her scheme. It was at the supper
table. Poising her fork in midair she
suddenly said;
"Will, suppose we go on our bridal
tour, starting on our fifth anniver
sary." "Wh-wh-what!" I gasped, looking
over at the golden-haired girl whose
two years of existence on this mundane
sphere permitted her to occupy a seat
at the table.
"That's what I said," replied Dor-
otny. "Suppose we take our bridal
tour, starting on our fifth- anniversary.

I frankly confess that the idea was
Dorothy's. As a matter of fact, a vast
majority of the good ideas advanced
in our household come ,fr,om.her. I do
not make the confession as a matter
of self-abnegation, nor as a tribute to
her. It is all so plain to those who
know both of us that any effort I
might make to arrogate to myself the
credit for the bright ideas regarding
our household arrangements would be
greeted with derision.
When we were married circum
stances over which we had no control
prevented us from taking a bridal
tour. In tho first place, we eloped.
In the second place we kept our mar
riage secret more than three weeks,
and before it leaked out I had lost my
job.
There we wore a newly married
couple with nothing between us and
privation save my small ability as a
newspaper man, and almighty small
demand for that little ability during
the strenuous times of '94 when busi
ness was more a memory than a fact.
Even if we had been the possessors of
enough money to take a bridal tour
wo would not have taken It. We
would have used It to live on until I
secured a situation. As It was, heaven

arranged all the plans. My travelling
dress is already made, I've arranged to
have Rena taken care of by kind
friends during our absence, and we've
saved up enough, money so that we
can pay all the expenses and not
miss it."
That seemed to settle it, but still I
failed to grasp the idea.
"You mean that we will celebrate
our anniversary by taking a trip
somewhere?" I asked.
"Nothing of tho kind, sir. I mean
that we will take our bridal tour.
We'll invite a few friends to our wed
ding supper. After it is eaten we
will take a closed carriage for the
depot, and as we start our friends will
throw rice at us. I'll carry a big bou
quet of bride roses and you'll carry a
look of foolish pride, just like all new
ly married men do. Our friends will
follow us to the depot and act just as
ridiculously as friends usually do when
they see a wedded couple off on a
bridal tour. We'll take the train firwi
try to make folks believe we've been
married ever so many years, and when
we think nobody is looking we'll hold
hands and look unutterable things
into each other's eyes. We'll act
just"
"For heaven's sake pause in your
mad career, woman!" I shouted. "How
in thunder are we going to do all of
that play acting?"
"0, we'll succeed well enough, never
fear," replied Dorothy. "There's no
use raising objections. The whole
thing is settled with the exception of
our route. I thought I would allow
you to have something to say about
that."
I have forgotten just what I wanted
to say concerning this impudent meth
od of doing business, but I remember
that whatever it was I wisely held my
peace.
"Well, if you've got it all fixed but
that I guess we might as well settle
that part ot it," I meekly said. "When
I come home tomorrow evening I'll
bring a lot of railway guides and we'll
look 'em over and decide where wo
want to go."
"0, I knew you would think my
plan a good one!" exclaimed Dorothy,
passing me another flaky biscuit and
re-fllling my coffee cup. "You needn't
mind bringing home the railway
guides. I've got a lot here already, and
I've been looking them over."
"Woman, have you also decided
where wo aro to go on our bridal
