POEMS IN PROSE. Olive Schreiner's prose poems, The Wine Press, has had few imilatore, but Oscar Wilde has followed in her footsteps, prodan. ing a series of sketches based on Scripture, which he has treated similarly. We solact the following from The Fortnightly Review:--

THE BOER or dedð,

It was night-time, and He was alone, And when fie maw afar off the walls of a round city, and went toward the city,

And when He came near he heard within the trend of the faet of joy, and the laughter of the month of gladoces, and the load noise of many lutes, And He knocked at the gate and certain of the gate-koopers spened to Him.

And when He had passed through the hall of chalcedony and the ball of jasper, -and reached the long hall of feasting, He saw

lying on a couob, of sea-purple one whose hair was crowned with red roses and whosa Hips were red with wine.

He went behind him and touched bim on the eboulder and said to him, "Why do you live like this?

And the young man turned round and re- cognised Him, and made answer and said, "But I was a leper once and you bealed me, How else should I live "

And He passed out of the house uud went again into the atrest.

And after a little while He saw on whore face and raiment were pairted, and whose feet where shed with pearls, and be bind her came, slowly na a hunter, a young men who wore a cloak of two colers Now the face of the watean was the far faoo of an idol, sad the eyes of the young man were bright with lust.

And He followed swiftly and touched the hand of the young man, and said to him. "Why do you look at this women in such wise pl

And He ran forward and touched the painted raiment of the women and said to her, is there no other way in which to walk save the way of sin?"

And the woman turned round and re- cognized Bim, and laughed, and said, "But you forgese me my sins, and the way is a pleasant way.

And He went toward him and touched the long locks of his bair, and said to him, "Why are you weeping !"

And the young man looked up and ra cognized in, and made answer, "But I was dead once and you raised me from the dead. What else should I do but weep ""

THE MASTER

Now when the darkness came over the earth, Joseph of Adiwathen, having lighted a torch of pinewood, passed down from the bill into the valley. For he had business in his own boxe.

And kneeling on the fint stores of the Valley of

FOUNTAINS IN PLAY.

Who doesn't enjoy looking at a fountain in play? The bright water lapa into the air ar though it were a living, conscious thing. Then at the sumit of its arch it is shattered into pray by the wind, or waited to and fro like the skirts of a dancing girl. And all the while the rose of its rash and the tinkling melody of its fall fill the air. This is water having a good time-water in high spirits. What makes is jump, sing, and laugh in that fashiour Wait o bit. If you please, we will have the explanation later on. Porhaps you know already!" perhaps not. It isn't no casy to know things from the

Under dato of March 16th, 1992, a lady writes that for twenty years she always felt tow-spirited. Now, what is meant by "spirita this sense is condition of the ind in respect of our being chosrtal, happy, oving our suundings, taking delight in all sorts of minor maltern, and, in a word, making the most of life ourselves an helping others to make the most of it.

But I can't; Kayhow I'm not. Neither is anybody. Yet why not? What makes our hearts sink down like plummet, and then rise like a

My appetite was poor, I had a bad taste in the month, and much pain and weight at the cheat after eating. I was also frequently sick, throwing up a sour, frothy fluid. I look differ- ent kinds of medicine, but none of them gavə me relief, and I got werker and weaker.

Marob, 1884, I became so bad that I called a doctor, who attended me off and on for twelve months. He gave me medicines, bat grew no betier, as nothing he prescribed seemed to reach my complaint.
