A VARIETY OF VERSE. A Lover’s Plight. Ah! if I call my Cynthia sweet, Or if to Juno I compare her; If I declare there's none so neat. That not a maid on earth is fairer. She says that I exaggerate, That I am bent on poetizing, And then— orfl most unlucky fate— She pouts In manner most surprising. Ah! if my feelings I restrain And" in no ardent manner woo her The fickle maiden pouts again And says that I’m indifferent to her. I’m sure that an unluckier youth Than I 'twere difficult to discover, So hard a task it is, in sooth. To play the role of Cynthia's lover! —Nathan M. Levy, in Judge. My Mother. My mother sings—her voice is low and sweet, Again a child, I nestle at her feet; What though the song a simple lullaby! IH hear no sweeter music till I die. My mother smiles, a brighteyed, happy glance; Again a youth, I lead the merry dance. Yet, in the throng of girlhood’s rosy grace, I see no lovelier vision than my mother’s face. My mother prays for strength to guide my youth Aright along the thorny path of truth. What though no wealth or fame await that way! I rise without a care to meet the coming day. My mother sleeps—ah! me ! —no voice, no sound Can reach me from beneath the still, cool ground. Yet sometimes in my dreams I hear her sing again That dear old lullaby, tuned to a nobler strain. —Detroit Free Press.

Truly a Modest Maid. I want no duke nor honored earl, No brave and comely knight; I want a man who’ll tend the stove, And the kitchen fires light I want no daring warrior Before whose sword men fall; I want a timid little man Who’ll answer to my calk I want no lordly banker With wealth on land and sea; I want a man whose hoardings Shall in my keeping be. I want no handsome, brilliant man Whose glance the heart can hurt; I want a man so ugly That none will with him flirt. I want a man of learning, Of the mental, vast and high; I want a man who knows and feels He knows much less than L —Bessie Higgins, in Omaha Bee.

The Farmer and the Grocer. A grocer would not pay a farmer the price of a tenpound turkey for one that weighed but seven pounds. Why should a farmer pay a grocer the price of the Royal Baking Powder for a baking powder with 27 per cent, less leavening strength ? The Royal Baking Powder is proven by actual tests to be 27 per cent, stronger than any other brand on the market Better not buy the others, for they mostly contain alum, lime and sulphuric acid; but if they are forced upon you, see that you are charged a correspondingly lower price for them.
