THE VOICE8.
: Down In the night, 1 hear them,
i The voices—unknown—itngueaaoa,
That whisper and Hep and murmur.
And will not let me reel.
' Voice* that aeem to question
In unknown word* of "me.
Of fabulous venture*, and hope* and
dream* '
Of thl* and the world to be.
I Voices of mirth and music,
Aa In sumptuous home*, and eounde
I Of mourning, a* of gathering friends
In country burial ground*.
I Cadence of maiden voice*—
Their lover*' blent •:1th these;
' And of little children singing,
: As under orchard trees.
And often, up from the chaos
Of my deepest dream*. 1 hear
Ecunds of phantom laughter
. Filling the atmpephere.
But ever and ever the meaning
• Falters and falls and dies.
And only the silence quiver*.
.With the sorrow of my sighs.
And I answer; “Oh! voices, ye may not
\ ’ Make me understand
Till my owp volco, mingled with you,
' Laugh* In Bhadowland."
—James Whitcomb Riley.

might neTer live long enough to be, promt
of her ftge," anil he admonished Mrs. Howe
to do nothing reninrkntde, ns at her time
of life living Itself Is remarkable enough.
Still after more than three score years of

known, memories of de.nr friends of her
youth, among whom were Ualph Waldo Km-
ersou and Theodore Barker, and of her own
distinguished ku«l*and, Samuel (I. Howe.
The article Is written with the yare charm
which characterise* Mrs. Howe’s work. It
