No after joys have childhood,

No llo " oi s huve bloomed, bl ight to view,

As thos,- 1 gathered in the distant wild wood And brought t.iom home, my mother dear,

to j ou.

But time, w hich in ves ou restless, tireless pinion,

Hus crept upon us almost unaw ares, Guibcred oui jo js in Ins vast dominion,

Aud left, iutseud, u life of toil and cures.

And she. who shared with me my youthful pleasures,

Wept t my grief and smiled a t all myjoys,

Iu Heaven rests, among those prirelea treas­ures,

'• Where moth nor rust corrupt,” nor time dcstro., s.

But wo aro left, dear moth.ir, to euoh other,Nor grief, nor tilne, can our ulfectiou

B u t subsequent even ts discovered my mistake. O ur S a tu rd ay sale was a big oue—tlie rival house across on the co r­n e r h adn 't a chance a g a in t us t l ia t day —aud by noon every art ic le p u t up vv as bid off lively and quit k.
