Bho's coming with the breezes that will blow along the shore. The sun will kiss her ringlets and will tinge hor cheeks with brown, While he who loves her madily grapples fate and tolls in town, And Cupid, with the arrows that he's given her 1o twirl, ‘Will guari anew the footsteps of the spright. ly summer girl, Whon robin redbreast hops around while yet 'tis carly dawn, And tennis piayers dot the green of grassy fleld and lawn, ‘We'll see her dressed in por ing stick in Land, And in her brother's nec along the sand, And whero the crowd 1s thickest in the sum- mer hotel whirl, ‘Will bloom once more the beauty of the charming summer girl. ‘With glossy collar shining in summner days alo, with a wall- tie will she stroll the light of s» With vest and sash and blazer we will learn anow her ways, Young Cupid will instruct us how to pierce the thin disguise Of masculine attire that hides ieart wo prize, And when o more we claim her as the summer’s pri pearl, ‘We'll hail the smiling foatures of the jolly sumuer girl, the maiden NEARING A CLINAX, Somebody’s courting somebody, Somewhers or other tonight'; Somebody’s whispering to somebody, Under the clear moontight. Pacing the ocean’s shore, Edged by the foaming war, Words nover used before, Sound sweet to somebody. Two sitting side by side, Float with the ebbing tide, “Thus, dearest, may we glide Throuh lite,” 'says somcbody. Somewhere, somebody, Males love to somebody Touight. Cupid and the summer girl have formed a eompuct, entored into a limited partnership, as it were. Heo goes wherever she goes, When she tosses the tenuis ball and cries “Love,” he is there to sece that she has faie pla; hidden in her bouquot and peeps neath her fan After all whether it be youth and tent on pleasure, or fat aud plethoric pater familias and his mild and matronly spouse, 1t s tho kindly instinet of domestic sentiment and affection that-has moro than anything to do with this going away on the sum- mer business. Itis love that inspires it all iore than mere variety or desive for pleas- ure. Recreation is not al'ways rest, but the two &0 hand in hand, and nothing tends more to rest the cucrgies that havo been overnsed than bringing into play those t| have been fnactive ov suppressed. In order to have genuine recreation it is necessary to not only discontinuc the usual routine, but also to find something to do which will' arouse a new nonse of power distinct from that which the ordinary vocation awakens It is vacation vs vocation. The world, es- cially the business world of the cities to- ay, is largely made up of hurried, ove strained, practical people, who have no fa- vorite study to revive, no scientitic taste to frntil_v, o intellectual pleasure to pursue. t would be as useless for them to undertake, some literary task, for instance, for recre: tion as it would be for a worn-qut clergyman to engage in farm work. What they want is diversion, and this they got. Just as the appetite in weakness craves for what it most requires, so the tired mina secks the needed avenues of recreation. Thero scems to be somothing about tho freedom of the fleld and sea that brings back the feeling of vouth again; the intercourse with what is unconveutional gives reliof from the long formality of the social and comiaercial ana even the dom red tape modern life. THe princes of Wales has a new fad! The faces of Queen Victoria, the prince of ‘Wales and all the young Waleses, have been photographed on the thinnest of egg-shell china cups and saucers, by her royal high- ness.

After the ceremonics Miss Louise distributed choice flowers amongst hor friends and withdrew to her home—whilst the audieuce, sadly returned to the old ruts of duty—but such little inci- dents, we contond, always numanize and re- fine and it is a pity that thoy are not of more frequent oceurrence.

Safe pill. During the short time we were in Winni- pew, says a writer in Blackwood's Magazine, we were struck with the beauty of the Can- adian young ladies in this little city of the prairies, The *‘Rosalie, the prairie flower,” of our youth, must surely have como from somewhere about the centrsd part of the Northern Awerican continent. Whereas in New York it took us eight days to find five handsome women, in our four hours at Win- nipeg we saw many, pretty, well-dressed girls, and four perfect hgauties. Such bright, flashing eyes, such wiwgome vivacity of ex- pression! It would not e fair to the others to say too much about the exact place to find one or two of them; buakif I had a younger brother in search of a beautiful young Can- adiau wifo, I should gontly sug to him that the Hudson Bay compan store Winnipeg contained 'domething else worth looking at besia@ tur in well How to Col act, ghe Effects of Im- pure Water.
