A WILD ROSE«

Thia year 1 wandering sen,

My own Wild R'.se, to thee.
For when my gaze first met thy grize
We were knee deep in June;
The nights were only dreaming daya.
And all the hours in tune.
I found thee, like the eglantine,
Sweet, simple and apart;
And from that hour thy smile hath been
The flower that scenta my heart.
And ever since, when tendrils grace
Young copse or withered Is JI
With rosebuds, straight I sec thy face,
And gaze into thy soul.
A iiaturul bud of love thou art,
Where, gazing down, I view,
Deep hidden in thy fragrant heart,
A drop of heavenly dew
Go, wild rose, to my Wild Rose dear;
Did her come swift and s<M>n.
Oh, would that she were always here!
It then were always June.
—Alfred Austin in Washington Post.
A-flung was a Chinese boy who lived
in the farming village of Woo-kuh, near
the Choo-Keaug or Pearl river, about
fifteen miles below Canton. Ilis father
belonged to that highly esteemed class
of Nting or farmers.
A-«ung was one of the brightest schol­
ars in the village school. But Arning’»
father was poor and had many children,
bo he felt compelled to take his son from
school to save the expense, and also that
he might have his help in the paddy
field.
A-sung waa in a somewhat melancholy
mood one bright afternoon us he sat be­
neath a clump of mulberry trees near
the river. From his little knoll he could
gaze over wide expanses of rice fields,
ami before him spread the broad surface
of the river at Blenheim Reach.
A beautiful American bark lying at
anchor half a mile away was the object
of his earnest attention.
Suddenly there was a great puff of
white smoke from her deck, followed by
a heavy report. A-sung seemed to have
been watching for this. He directed his
gaze to a black speck a mile down the
river, and saw the splashes as the shot
struck near it and ricochetted on over
the surface. The crew were practicing
at the guns.
When the firing ceased a small boat
left the bark, directed toward a point
higher up the river, and he knew that
some of the officers were coming ashore
to take exercise on horseback, as was
their custom. A-sung sprang up ami
started back to the village.
On his way he had to piss near a small
fishing hamlet situated on an inlet of the
river. He hurried along with some trepi­
dation, for the inhabitants had a bad
reputation, it was ropirted that they
were addicted to smuggling and piracy
in their swift boats, called “fast urabR.”
But he came to a sudden halt as loud,
piteous screams came from one of the
huts.
A huge, ugly Chinaman came out
dragging a girl whom he was lieating
unmerc ifully with a thick piece of bam­
boo. He wore short, wide trousers, a
dirty quilted blouse and a broad hat of
bam lx »o strips. His feet were bare. He
was a vicious looking ruffian. At last
the girl broke away from him ami ran
swiftly toward A sung, pursued by her
tormentor.
The» boy s first thought was to take to
his heels, but he Ixildly waited till the
fugitive reached him, when he gnueped
her waist and darted away Indiind an
embankment into a patch of tall reeds,
where they both lay panting until their
pursuer gave up the search.
The girl was quite pretty, but ragged
ami covercsl with bruises. She was cry­
ing with pain ami fright. A-sung’s eyes
filled with tears of sympathy.
“Was that your father?” he asked pity­
ingly.
“No, venerable sir," sobbed the girl.
“He IxHight me "
“Oh!" said A sung, with contempt at
the thought of helping a slave girl. But

rash and a ball.
“Take these,” he said. “I’m sorry for
you. lkdter wait till he goes to sheep
before you go back." Thun he rose ami
crept cautiously away so as not to attract
attention In a little while he reacdnsl
the village.
Ash» approached he saw two foreign­
ers on horsobauk in the street surrounded
by more than 200 children, who were
dancing about ami shouting, “C»xK’-che!
