PAPA'S LETTER.
I was sitting is the study,
Writing letters, when I heard, Please, dear mamma, Bridget told me Mamma muan't be 'faturbed.
"But I'm tired of the kitty,
Want some ozzer fing to do; .. Writing letters, is 'ou mamma 7. Tan't 1 write a letter, too !!
Not now, darling, mamma's busy, Run and play with kitty now." "No, no, mamma, me write letter, Tan if 1ou will show me how,”
I would paint my darling's portrait
As his sweet eyes starched my face- Hair of gold and eyes of arure,
Form of chlidish, witching grace,
But the eager face was clouded,
As I slowly shook my head,
Till I said, "I'll make a letter
Of you, darling boy, instead."
So I parted back the tresses
From his forehead high and white, And a stamp in sport I pasted
Mid its waves of golden light.
Then I said, "Now, Hittio letter,
Go away and bear good newa " And I smiled sa down the staircase Clattered load the little shoes,
Leaving me, the darling hurried Down to Bridget in kis glee, **Mamma's writing lots of letters;
I'we letter, Bridget-100 !"
No one heard the little prattler,
As, once more, he climbed the star, Reached his little cap and tippet, Standing on the entry chalk.
No one heard the front door open,
No one saw the golden hair
As it floated o'er bis shouders,
On the crisp October air.
Down the street the baby hastened
Till he reached the office door,
"I'se a letter, Mr Postman ;
Is there room for any more?
"Cause dis letter's doin' to papa;
Papa live with God, 'ou know, Mamina sent me for a letter,
Dous 'on fink 'at 1 tan go
יין
But the clerk in wonder answered,
"Not to-day, my little man," **Den l'll find anozzer office, 'Cause I must go if I tan."
B
Fain the clerk would have detained him,
But the pleading face was gone, And the Mttle feet wera hastening By the busy crowd swept on. Suddenly the orowd was parted,
People fed to left and right, As a pair of maddened horses
At that moment dashed la sight.
No one saw the baby figure-
No one saw the golden hair, Till a voice of frightened sweatness Bang out on the Autumn air,
'Twas too late-s moment only
Stood the beauteous vision there, Then the little face lay lifeless,
Covered o'er with golden hair. Reverent they raised my darling,
Brushed away the curls of gold, Baw the stamp upon the forehead,
Growing now so loy cold.
Not a mark the face disfigured,
Showing where a boof had trod; But the litle life was ended.
*Papa's letter" was with God. The Pacific Baptist.
