Poetry.
RICHER THAN GEMS OR GOLD.
BT CALEB DUNS.
I know I’m old and faded, Will,
And that my hair is gray;
I know that wrinkles on my brew
You've seen for many a day.
And that the brightness of my face
Has long since passed away.
Yet 1 have health and is my heart
I never lave grown old;
The love I gave you years ago
I know can ne'er grow cold,
And your true love is richer, Will,
To me than gems or gold.
Mary, I too am far along
Life's journey, yet I see
As years go by the olden lore
Grows dearer e’er to me;
Without your love to bless me now
I could not happy be.
Not for a day, but for all time
And My I heart 1 offered believing, you, wife,
took yours
It ever would be true;
And time has proved its faithfulness
And all its goodness, too.
But I'm a plain old woman, Will,
And yon still look so fine;
It makes me proud to gaze on you
And know that you are mine;
And I have ne'er regretted, Will,
That day in old lang syne,
When in the village church we stood
With happy hearts I trow;
And solemnly with hands clasped, Will,
Each took a sacred vow;
I thought th\t you wore noble then,
I know that yon are now.
You’ve been a faithful helpmeet, wife,
Of Through all earth's sorrow treasures and through have glee; proved
The you
dearest one to me;
And, wife, as long as life shall last
The same you e’er shall be.
You still are young in heart and mind;
True love can not grow cold,
Nor can it change like anything
That can be bought and sold;
So as I loved you in your youth
I’ll love you now you’re old.
Miscellaueous.
THE DOCTOR’S PEE.
The night was certainly very cold,
thought Dr. Marsh, as he was making
his way home from one of his profession
al visits. It was about 7 o’clock, the
streets were full of people hurrying along,
blue, cross and uncomfortable and under
the glare of tWe lamps the slippery pave
ment in some places shone like glass.
Dr. Marsh had just repeated his obser
vation concerning the coldness of the
weather, as his eyes rested, in passing, on
the pinched face of a little girl who was
l>eering anxiously in at the window of a
druggist, brilliant with its globes of li
quid colors. Then with a second glance
lie stopped and turned back.
“See here, my child,” he began.
The little creature, a girl of ten or
twelve years, started at the quick,though
kindly tone.
“I’m not going to hurt you,” said the
young man; don’t be afraid; but didn’t I
hour ?"” ’
see you here an ago
Still hardly reassured, she made some
confused reply in the affirmative to the
doctor’s question.
“But you ought not to stand here five
minutes on such a night,” said Dr.
Marsh, eyeing her thin clothing. “You
will freeze before you know it. Haven’t
you any home to go to ?”
The child glanced up timidly in his
face, and finding it pitying and trust
worthy, broke down at once, so that the
young man had some difficulty in sepa
rating her words from the sobs and
stammering that rendered her speech iu
coherent.
Khe was hungry, she was cold; they
had neither food nor fire at home, where
her mother was lying ill in bed without
nourishment or medicine. She had come
out to beg for assistance, but she had
never begged before and did not know
how, and most of the people had passed
by without noticing her, so that all she
had got was a few pence—enough to buy
a loaf, perhaps, but not to get the things
her mother needed.
Such was the child’s *twy, and after
hearing it, Dr. Marsh lost no time in ac
companying her home. On reaching the
poor place that afforded a bare shelter
at * d hardly that—to these destitute ones,
he found that he had come at a crisis.
The mother, a woman of respectable ap
pearance who had evidently seen better
days, was just on the eve of a dangerous
illness, which the young physician was
happily in time to avert. Having done
his best for her, and relieved mind as
well as body by the certainty of possess
ing the means of comparative health and
comfort, Dr. Marsh buttoned his coat
around him and went out again into the
bitter winter night.
Bitterer than ever it had grown by this
lime; but Dr - George Marsh, hurrying
home from his errand of mercy did not
heed the cold. When the keen blast
came driving around the street corners
lie only turned his head aside from its
fury and quickened his step to a pace
bid defiance to wind and weather.
young roan just struggling up in an
already over-crowded profession, he in
curred to-night and would incur again,
^ ™
no trifle to this limited means.
T he next day, at as early an hour as
custom would permit, Dr. Marsh made
his wav up the step of a handsome house
in a fashionable street. He seemed to
be a famil ar visitor, for the servant who
answered his knock ushered him at once
into a parlor, where he waited until the
entrance a young lady made him turn
round towards her.
“Ob, Dr. Marsh, who would have
thought that you could have forgotton
me last evening ?” she exclaimed, with
a sort of playful reproach in her tone
whicli was not at all jesting.
“Miss Helen, do not condemn me nn
heard,” Unanswered, falling into her
manner. Then he gave a simple account
of the cause of his detention on the pre
vious evening, to which she listened with
mnch Inftrest. And now yon will say
you wilt forgive me for what, after all
was a greater loss to me than to any ono
else ?” he said, as he concluded.
“Oh, Dr. Marsh, you must not turn
flatterer 1” she responded archly. “That
would be a new part for you to play.
“I was not speaking a compliment,
but the simple truth,” said he. “You
can hardly need that assurance, I think.”
“Thank you for saying so; but do you
really enjoy any time that’s not spent
with your books or patients ?”
Dr. Marsh laughed.
“I am certainly very much interested
in my profession,” said he, “but does it
follow that I can care for nothing else V”
“Why, yes, I suppose so. Isn’t your
whole heart bound up in it ?”
Dr. Marsh laughed again, but this
time witlf"some effort.
“My heart ?” he repeated. “It is held
by some that a physician should have no
heart—only a head.”
“Ah, b&t you have no head, you know
and one or the other is absolutely neces¬
sary I”
“I have no head ?” “And why, Miss
Helen ?”
“Because if you had one you would
“ever waste your time in attending poor
people who can never pay you 1 Oh, yes,

In the pHlkground, do you suppose I

“If I had said one thing instead of

“Ah ! and that one.”

She topped her eyes beneath Ills

he bad risen. Then she rose, too, and
came and 8tood he®'*! 6 him.
“ Dr ' Mar8h ’” she “ J hare a fa '

“Gladly, if it is within ray power.”
“Well, I want to do something for

ot. Please don’t deny mo.”
“Indeed, Miss Helen,” ho answered,
with a half smile,” I have no disposi

of your help. And as it is scarcely a
place where you would care to go alone,
if you will permit rue I will call for you
and take you there.”
“Thank you; and Dr. Marsh, you are
not offended with me for my nonsense
about making your fortune ?”
Offended with you!” he repeated,
“That is something that I never could
be, my—my dear Miss Helen !”
With that ho let go her hand, which
she had given him, and went out into
the street occupied with bis thoughts as
he walked along. And Miss Helen
Wiljoughby, left alone, compressed her
pretty lips as she mentally pronounced

ges. At the door, howeyer. he was
obliged to leave her, promising to re
turn for her when he should have f ul
tilled a professional engagement which
required him that hour,
When he did come back he found the
most confidential terms established be
tween the party, Mists Willoughby sat
by the bedside, holding the little girl in
her lap and smoothing down her hair,
while she talked soothingly and sympa
thizingly to the mother, who, too, weak
to say much herself, listened to the
cheering words with an expression on
her face such as the young man had
never seen there before, not even when
he brought her such unexpected assist
anee. It showed that her heart, no less
than her body, had been starved,
“Dr. Marsh,” said Helen Willoughby,
turning a beaming face upon him as he
entered, “you could have had no idea—
for I am sure I had none—what a ser
vice you were doing me in bringing me
here: Only think t Mrs. Jackson is my
dear old nurse, that used to be, long
ago when I was a tiny thing, too small
to remember anything about her but
, how good , she . was ... to me. As long as I ,
live I am not likely to forget her iudul
gence.”
“Indeed, miss,” said the woman,
looking fondly into her bright face, “I
don’t know who could liavo helped be
ing good to you. You were a perfect
little angel wl.en you were a baby.”
“Oh,” Raid Helen, laughing ; “does
that mean that I’m uot one now ? l)r.
Marsh, ,, , I , appeal , to , you—-if F , was a .... little
angel then what can l lie but a great
angel now ?”
“Ah, Miss Iloleti,” answered the
young man, laughing and shaking his
head, ’ “you ', warned me ouce not to flat
tei you.
“Really 1 So you think that would be
flattery, do you ?" she said, pretending
to pout. “Well, I’m glad to know your
true opinion of me. Then you don’t
consider me an angel, great or little V”
“Well, not a great one, certainly,” he
answered, looking down at her petite fig
ure. “Further than that I shall not
say, since even the truth 'Is notr*fo be
spoken at all times^’
“Verywel Dr Marsh; I shall pun
ish you by calling in some other physi
clan when I am ill,” said Miss Wil
loughby, in meek revenge.
“Ah, Miss,” said the Invalid, “I hope
that will he a long time first. ”
“<So do I,” timidly whispered the
child, who seemed to have an under¬
standing and appreciation of illness bo
yoml tier years.
“Thank you pet,” said Helen ; so do
I, too. And now, l)r. Marsh,what have
you to say about It, or is a subject in
which you feel no Interest ?”
“When that day comes, Miss Helen,
which I trust may he very distant, I will
try to show yoq my feelings better than
words could express them.”
Something in his manner,and the grave
look which lie fixed on her face slightly
embarrassed her. She rose to depart.
During tho homeward walk thero was
little conversation between the two, a
state of tilings which seemed somewhat
to confuse Miss IFilloughhy. She cast
about in her mind for a subject to talk
about and in lack of anything else, had
recourse to the scene tiiey had just left.
“To think of my finding my dear old
nurse 1” she said ; “and you were the
means of it; Dr. Marsh. I don’t know
how to thank you.”
Dr. Marsh’s answer was too slight to
keep up the conversation and there was
silence again. Then the young lady re¬
sumed, witli some hesitation :
“She told me all the good you had done
for her—how good you had been and—
and—you know, Dr. Marsh, I consider
her as my property again, so I take upon
rnyneither debts. So, if you please you
will send In your bill ,to Miss Willough¬
by, who will be happy to receive it.”
She had assumed a playful manner,but
Dr. Marsh answered, seriously, “Thank
you, Miss Willoughby, but I have no
bill to send in.”
“Now. Dr. Marsh, I insist 99
“But, Miss Helen, allow me, too, to
insist.”
“You are determined not to take any¬
thing from ine!” she exclaimed, in mor¬
tified vexation.
lie heard tier voioo falter ; he felt, al¬
so, the little hand tremble upon hiB arm.
For a moment he forgot himself,
“There is only one thing I would take
from you, Helen,” he said, “and that—”
“And that?” she quickly repeated,
looking full m his face.
Their eyes met; doubt and pride were
for the time forgotten,
“Yourself,” he said,still looking down
at her.
She laughed, half frightened, half *au
cy.
“If you wan’t me, why don’t you take
me, George Marsh ?”
And so Dr. Marsh got his fee.
