ELSIE Ah! who can rightly understand The mysterious workings of the mighty hand That wields the sickle of death? Why the tiny bud, the opening flower, The blosom that's fully blown, And the withered rose, fall, side by side, Will never, by us, be. known. Why the wayside flower, bruised and bent, With color faded and dim, Longing to sink 'neath the wait ing sod, Still clings to its fragile stem, While a fair young flower, with beauty rare, Is taken lrom us away, And the tender buds on the par . ent stem Are left to the sun's hot ray; And, the companion flower, too, - left . Bruised and broken by the shock, Seeking shelter and strength to sustain, , In t he shadow of the rock. The Mighty Reaper stays not His hand For sweet bud or blossom rare. Hut gathers all that come in His way The flower as well as the lare. What the Lord giveth He taketh away. We grieve when he gathers our fair, Hut would Heaven be Heaven with no sweet flowers Ladies' Dress Skirts in greys, blues and black very fine goods that we want to sell.
