THE COURIER
WHEN MY BEfoOVED GOMES.
r Written for THE COURIER.
When my beloved comes, (be comes sometimes)
Thn Nature does commit most dreadful crimes,
When my beloved comes.
She crushes minutes all up into one,
And boldly tells ub that an hour is done!
When my beloved comes.
I always meet him at the garden gate.
And straight the crickets cry "Tis late, 'tis late!"
When my beloved comes.
The moon that's old enough to stay out all niht,
Will go to bed bo early, just for spite.
When my beloved comes.
Time's slow enough I'm sure, throughout the day.
It seems the hours will never drag away
Till my beloved'comes.
But when be comes, ah, then they fairly run!
And night is ended ere it is begun,
When my beloved comes.
There is a clock high in the village tower.
It often strikes four times in one short hour
When my beloved comes.
And long black shadows point toward the town,
Or creep up close to me and pluck my gown!
When my beloved comes.
And leaves together whisper soft and low,
"How late it is!", and "will he never go?"
When my beloved comes.
Isabel Richey.
WHIST.
In the play of duplicate whist every trick taken counts one on the
score, and, therefore, every card must be "played, and carefully
played. The score is kept by chips or counters, thirteen of which
are placed on the table and a chip is taken for each-trick won by the
side winning it, and it is steady, hard word from beginning to the
end. Play deliberately. Do not hesitate, as hesitation often gives
an ad vantage to your adversaries, and do not pull out a card and
put it back in your hand; there is no excuse for it, and it is liable to
be called. Watch, the cards as they are played. Do not find fault -,
with your partner, as you are likely to be shunned for scolding and
belonging to the family of "Knowitalls." Never ask to see the last
trick, and do not waste time looking at or pulling about your cards,
or you will fail to see who played certain cards, and commence a
condition of mental confusion which continues during the whole
hand. Never take your eyea off the table. First hand play requires
greater judgment than any of the others. Never lead from a "sneak,"
by a crazy notion of getting in a little trump. It is the worst man
nered imitation whist that is played. A player cannot substitute
another card of the same suit for the first one played to a trick, the
second card would be an exposed card, and must be left on the table,
face upward, and not taken into the player's hand again, but must
be led or played when called, providing he can do bo without revok
ing. The call may be repeated at each trick until the card is played.
If he plays another card without awaiting the decision of the adver
saries, such card is also liable to be called. One reason why there
are so many "moderate players is simply because they are content
to remain as they are, and can never define the difference between
"playing whist" end playing "at" whist.
