n.UX AFTER DROUGHT
—*—*—+—
By Victor Starbusfc
Ruin on the barren fields—
The silvery cascade writhes an<i
flutes and hisses,
And tho drought-scarred meadow
trembles and smiles and yields
Her face to tho storm-cloud's
kisses.
Rain on the scythe-swept earth
Where tho grass stands dead be
fore and tho stubble after,
And the dry weeds dance and 6way
with a pagan mirth,
And the furrows shout with
\ laughter.
Rain on the tindery roofs
That fills with gurgling song the
streets and the alleys—
Rain with a sound like the patter of
infinitesimal hoofs
Through blossoming valleys.
Rain on the gullied hills—
Rain, at last, in the splendid
abundance of giving,
And tho dry, dead earth awakens
again and thrills
With the passion of living
Rain in the face—the heart—
Rain of love on the Spirit's sin
charred embers.
And tho mind stands smiling,
a-dream, a space apart,
But the heart remembers.
—The Youth's Conpanion.

OCTOBER ROSES
.J> 4>—4>—
By Scudder Middleton
The gold aud song of Summer's dead
And ruby-lipped the Autumn sings,
So longer blooms the wild rose red,
But still the rose October brings.
She touched the maple with her
wings.
And rosy red each leaf became,
To bloom again ere Wiuter flings
His snowy scarf upon the flame.
