'Mid roses and rustle and laughter,
Tea, greetings and gossip as well,
The two of them met, a year after
That neither would care to tell.
Yet who could have said it mattered.
Although with the eyes to see ?
For they gossiped
and laughed and chattered
Of the marriages soon to be.
Of the fact of his lessening chances,
And the strangers come to town,
The dinners and plays and dances,
And the death of poor Nell Brown.
And he oh, he spoke of his journey,
And how Gibson had made a hit
With his "Married," and Susie Gurney
Was the model who sat for it.
And they talked of Le Gallienne's novel,
And she argued
that Browning was wrong.
With his rot about love and a hovel,
And hunger and babies and song !
And they chatted and sipped
and debated,
Till a man who was gaunt and gray
Came and said that the carriage waited,
And hurried his wife away.
And so in the crowd they parted,
And the world went on the same;
And neither was broken-hearted,
Yet unto them both there came
A thought that they dared not cherish,
A riddle they left unread:
'How so much of them both could perish,
Yet neither, indeed, be dead 1"

AmoDg the ruins of her life a woman
wept. "Here," she said, "1 built my
happiness, and for that which made it,
gave the jewels of my soul. A joy worth
so mucbrI thought, must last; but here
I mourn, for it lies fallen in thb dust,
shattered by the weight of what it
cost."

A Prize Thought.
A teacher of music in one of the pub
lic schools of the south desired to im
press the pupils with the meaning of the
signs "" and "ff" in a song they ware
about to sing. After explaining that
"" meant forte, he said: "Now, child
ren, if ' means forte, what does 'ff'
mean?"
Silence reigned for a moment, and
then he was astonished to hear a bright
little fellow shout:
"Eighty !" Lippencott for April.

The Doctor's wife:
How dreadful! Wear your heavy coat.
And, dear, please, will you mail my note,
There, on the mantel?
The Doctor; Yes; all right.
The Doctor's Wife:
And hurry, hurry back, for, oh,
When you're away, like this, at night,
I never sleep I
The Doctor: You don't ?
The Doctor's Wife: Why, no !
What wife could calmly rest?
The Doctor: Ah, true 1
The Doctor's Wife:
So come straight home.
The Doctor: That's what III do;-
I won't stay out to view the sky.
But try to doze, dear, meanwhile.

(Opening her eyes after a silence:)
Do hurry and get off, for then
You'll be the sooner back again.
