MATRIMONY.
Mewled ? Well, yes, and you're eiegie,
my friend ; you have my sympathy, too ;
No wonder you're looking doWn•heartett
and talking of fooling so blue ;
And I'll wager right now your suspenders
aro both of 'am tied with a string,
And you envy the bluebirds and robins
now aeoking their mates in the Spring.
1014101 that a follow is eolfisb who "!looks
by himself" all alone,
And rents a baok room in an attic, or
lives in a palace of stone,
Whore the muaio of children's sweet void•
es noschoo5 awake on the etaire ;
Who shares not the burdens of others
knows naught of their burdens or ogres,
Why, I'd rather go borne in the twilight,
after my clay's work is done,
And play with my girl and her doltio9
than have all your bachelor fun ;
For the laugh of my wee little woman
still marries me back to the days
When 1 fished in the brook, and barefoot-
ed I treaded the forest's dim ways•
And I'd rather sit down in the gloaming,
when the angels are painting the skies,
And watch the largo light that grows ten-
der and burns in my clarlieg's blue eyes,
Than to go out alone to the theater and
sit through the grandoet of plays
That o'er Dante from the pen of the 8100•
ter that wrote in those far -away days.
There is trouble in life, that I grant yob,
bat the burdens are lighter to boar
When there's eomeone that's watching
and waiting and willing to carry her
share,
And I tall you the love of a woman enr-
passetlh the knowledge of nlen,
And selfishness prompts the discomforts
bhat'a found in a bttohelors's den.
If womeu were selfish as you are, the
world would be cold as a stone ;
That sweet word would lose all its mean-
ing—that clearest of words they oall
home.
And life would be scarce worth the living
if poor love had nothing to'give.
Asa bachelor you're bob existing ; get
married and you will live.

When we 11na ly got t5 this dep l here,
and I sob out to look for .teas, t had the
hardest kind ov a time to get Oro a
crowd without Weill my oarpotseek.
There was a pa050l ov fellers a linin the

They wed grtah my things and try their

Mico a happened the, if it Mutant a bun

and yam all the strength I had I torn
away from the otowd and run over to

net llu 0nden6 hardly speak. I asked
hint if they dident lav no law in this
town to keep a body from bein robbed
like that on the street, and he laffed and
sed that tiro men 01110 40106 Iia grabbin fur

only wagginers and bus drivers, and that
wee their way ov biddin fur a bodys
kuslim, to shawl hien and his belonging
wherever he wauted to go. It seems to
line they mite most oz well nock a feller
down, and then throw him in their bus
and drive off.
Not findin Jess there ab the depo to
meet me, ez I had expedited, I told
Brother 1avluth that I dident keer if I dict

I tell you what it is, old woman ; no
matter where you are in this town, it
looks evry minit ez Aho meetin bad jest

that there ever had ben so many fokes
