For w'llch mv soul djd pine A green Isle In the pea. love. A fountain and a shrine. All wreathe! with fnlrv fruits. And nil the HoWf-rs were mine. Ah. dream too brlcht to last' Ah, starry hope that illdit nrtan But to be oercast: A voice from out the future cries: "On. on'" hut o'er the past (Dim gulf!) my spirit holering lies Mute, motionless, aghast! For, alas, alas, with me The lisfht of life Is o'er! No more no more no more (Such language hi Ids the solemn sea To the sands upin the shore) Shall bloom the thunder blasted tree Or the stricken eagle sjar' And all my days are trances. And all my nightly dreams Are where thy dark eve glances And where thy foots. ep gleams In what ethereal dances. By what eternal streams? Edgar Allan Poe. CONTENTMENT. , SOME have too much, yet still do crave. I little have and seek no more. They aro but poor, though much they have, And I am rich with little store. They poor, I rich; they beg. I give; They lack, I have; they pine. I live. Shakeipera ASK A HUNDRED ' women, "What constitutes an Ideal hus band?" and no two will give the same reply. Scarcely a married wom an but thinks, that, given more wis dom at the time of her selection of a husband, she might have done bet ter. Few meditate that from seven teen to seventy women enter into matrimony with the same imperious disregard of anything hut the desire for love, for title or for gold. Some women say that the ideal husband must be handsome, brilliant, good tempered, generous in fine, possess all the attributes of a geni us, an Adonis and a saint rolled into one and none reflect that these at tributes do not travel together and that few possess them in combina tion. On one point women are agreed; the Ideal husband must be generous. Ho must not scan too closely milli nery bills, nor ask how certain sums have been expended. The ideal hus band should be good tempered, all assent, for who could enduro lifo with a bear? Then, too, the ideal husband should never bo jealous. The excite ment of jealousy might lend spice to an engagement, but proves cayenne pepper to married life. On the domestic qualities of the Ideal husband women differ. Some like a husband to go to his club and enjoy himself, and leave them to gossip or bridgo at home or else where; others think the Ideal hus Imnd should be a constant companion and never cxperionco the least en joyment in the society of any human being other than his wife, i Some women think that the man who is able to order Ills own homo and everything in it except his wife is an ideal husband, while more of them believe perfection to Ho in that man who lets his wifo reign supremo in, his homo and rule his every net. An eastern branch of the Young Men's Christian association is teach ing its clnss of prospective benedicts all about their duties toward their homes, and even how to pick out a Buitnblo wife to adorn them, but It i hasn't tried to teach them what their attitude should bo toward tho wives they win to wear tho enviablo tltlo of "Ideal husband." It does not know, and nobody has over discovered from any body of women, what constitutes tho feminine ideal of what a husband ought to bo. Miss Alico Butler entertained the Biographic Club at a Hallowe'en so cial at her homo, Thurbdny aftornoon, the session being one of tho most de lightful ,of tho many onjoyublo oues tho club has over hold, Tho Butler homo was prettily decorated for tho function, autumn leaves of various tints and Jnck-o-lanterns leudlng tho llullow'on offect.
