I'd wear silk shirts with stripes of crimson, and gaudy garments brave and smart; I'd be a sight to cast your glims on, if I had not a rab- bit’s heart. But I am doomed to somber raiment, like all the other old boys here; for dreary duds we make our payment, and like morticians we appear. If 1 should drape my ancient body | in brighter tints, the folks would say, “That pelican is much too gaudy for one whose head is bald and gray; instead of wear- ing silks and ermines, he should in humble garments stand, and spend his evenings reading ser- mons, preparing for another land.” I'm old in years but young in spirit, and I would dress like sweet sixtesn; but men’s rebuke! alas, I fear it, and cut out pink and red and green. My maiden aunt in years is stricken, but she has raiment on the mind, and you would take tlease, and age becomes a grief abysmal, a sordid thing of soup and cheese. WALT MASON.
