SATURDAY MORNING, DEC. 19,
THE OFFERED KI9S.
tie offered a kies in the morning
I coldly turned away:
For an idle word that I overheard
Had rankled a night and day.
I knew, in truth, it was. nothing,
Tnat he would have blushed to own,
The point and sting o| ttie trilling thing
(irtit out of mv In Art akne.
But a vexed, unquiet spirit
Weighs no matter aright.
And the sore smart of a jealous hear*,
Pats reason out of sight.
1 let him go in the morning
Without the kis* he sought;
And me day w as long, but I nursed my w rong
With many a bitter thought.
One bitter thought, God help me I
Did not enter my brain,
That kiss of mine, by word or sign,
lie would never seek again.
But as evening shadows gathered,
My heart began to burn
With a quickened sense of his influence,
And 1 longed for his return.
Leaning agains the window
That overlooked the street,
I strained my ear Ills step to hear
In the crowd of hurrying lect.
Far off, in the dimmest distance,
I should have known it well;
But there came instead a nuifilod t-cad
And the sharp alarm of„the bell.
Some griefs, though deep and bitter,
Kind at last their cures.
But, some retain the old, old pain
As long as life endures.
1 did not know in the morning
When I coldly turned away,
That I should miss and mourn that ki.-s
Down to my dying day I *
Witty Sayings of Douglas -Jekuold
—lu one of his plays, tin old sailor,
trying to snatch a kiss from a pretty
girl—as old sailors will—got a box in
the ear. “There,” exclaimed Blue
jacket, “like my luck; always wrecked
on the coral reefs !”
In auother of his comedies he makes
a cynical dog in a wrangle with his
much better half say to him, “My no
tion iif a wife of forty is that I should
be able to change her, like a bank
note, for two twenties.”
When the fight of Guizot and Lewis
Phillip wat the fresh talk of London,
a writer of no great parts was abusing
the revolution and pitying Guizot.
“You see,” he observed, “Guizot and
I are both historians —we are now in
the same boat.” “Aye, aye,” replied
our wit, “but not with the same
sculls.”
Jerrolcl was generous t i a fault.
He never would say no. His purse—
when he bad a purse—was at every
man’s service. If he possessed a shil
ling somebody would get a sixpence
ol it from him. He had a lending
look of which many took advantage.
The first time lie ever saw Tom I)ib
din, that worthy gentleman and song
writer said to him: “Youngest, have
you sufficient confidence m me to
lend me a guinea ?” “Yes,” said Jer
rold, “I have all the confidence, but
I haven’t the guinea.”
The Effect of a. Smile.—An editor
l'elells this story: An aunt of ours
concluded to try the effect of a pleas
ant smile and a kind word upon her
husband when he returned from work.
She had read how a home should he
pleasant, and the wife should always
meet her husband with a joyful siniie.
The success she had is best given in
the shape of the dialogue:
Enter husband, almost exhausted,
and very hungry v "hal; throws his
hat on the floor am. drops heavily
into a seat. Wife preparing tea,
looks up with a smile, and is so glad
to see him.
AVife—"Well, my dear, it is so nice
to have you here at meal time.” A
long smile.
Husband—“ Yes, I suppose so.”
Wife—“flow has your business
prop< red to-day ?” Another smile.
Husband— ‘‘About so-so. ”
Wife—“ Come, my dear; Supper is
ready; let me draw up your chair.”
Auother smile.
Husband, gruffly—‘Tin too tired to
stir. Wait till I warm my feet.”
Wife—“ Dons you choose, my dear.”
Another smile.
Husband—“ Look o’ here, old wo
man, before any more fuss is made
about it, I should like to know what
you tyre grinning at.”
Aunt sighed and relinquished her
sweet smile for the day. Undo was
not one of the romantic kind, and
didn’t understand such things.
traveler stopping at a West
ern hotel, exclaimed one morning to
the waiter, “What are yon about, you
black rascal? You have reused me
twice from my sleep by telling me
breakfast is ready, and now you are
attempting to strip off the bed
c’othes ” “Why,” replied Pompey,
“if you isn’t gwine to git up; I must
have de sheet, any how, ’cause dey’r
waitin’ for de table cloff.”
erring husband, who had
exhausted all explanations lor hue
hours, arid had no apology ready, re
cently slipped into the house about
one o'clock very softly, deunded him
self gently, and began locking the
cradle by the bedside, <s if he had
been awakened out of a sonud sleep
by infantile cries. H had rocked
away for five minutes, when Mary
Jane, who had silently observed the
whole manoeuvre, said, “Come to bed,
you fool you! the baby ain’t there.”
eminent physician has
decided that it is unhealthy to get np
before 8 o’clock in the morning. Our
friend Gluckerson says, for bis part,
that it is decidedly unhealthy for him
to l ay in bed one minute after his
wile telle him to make the fire, at 6
o’clock
