A WAIL FROM EDEN. Eve sat down in a violet glade The while her husband slept; And in the purple twilight's shade Right bitterly she wept; And this was strange, I must confess. For on that very day Her spouse had plucked her Easter drees From a fig tree miles away. He had searched the grove where the fig trees grew On a long and lengthy beat; He had slaved (as all good husbands doy To find her a pattern neat; And on and on and on he strode, Till at last he saw, in glee, A flg leaf—stylish and a la mode— On a fashionable looking tree. Yet Eve sobbed on In a peevish way. Till at last her spouse awoke; ‘‘Why all these weeps?” he was heard to say; “Why dost thou sob and choke? “Ain't the dress all right?” and she answered low “It's pretty, I must admit; But there isn’t another woman, I know. On earth to envy It!” —Nashville Tennessean.
