big and the fragrance of even little planta, is as the reck of a strewn field. Three years of sun

miracles by day and brilliant bespangled

heavens of nights, and then--Home!

And after the blaze of sunthing, how dull and grey and colourless is this London of our! Dur countryside, how lustreless; how chill and formal and unaventful our. lițilo woods! Waking in the night, these wanderers returned listen in vain for the chop-chop bird, or for the sudden crash of some great tree; or for the silken rusife, the sob, the sigh, the long tremulous whisper, which, gathering breath and strength in its coming, swells at last into a hurricane-the bellowing Sumatra; only to die away again as suddenly, and as strangely as it came.

OUR LORD THE SHA

It is in youth that we make our first bow to the jungle, Soldier, Government cadet, law. yer, doctor, and commercial assistant--all have their life before them when they first turn their faces to the East. And the great ship that car ries them Eastward-ploughing day after day and week after week through lonely sees-does Do bear them so much to a new land as to a new world,

Where before was there the miracle of these sudden dawns and sunseļu? Yes, it is something, I can tell you, to stand beneath heavens up- furling and watch the light of the world as it leaps out of darkness-all in a heart-throb or two, and just as quickly as the night springs into the seat of the sun. Then there are the temples and the minarels and the brilliant and everchang. ing panorama of, the streets All this in very wonderful, subtle, and captivating, bal' none the loss, sooner or later there settles on the mind a grey shadow. The langourous beauty of flame-shot skies; the life amidst bells and 'dream voices, and shadow folk and a people with eyes lika, stars-beneath the spell of it all everything sleeps but Memary. And the Sea is the barrier between the life that "none can forget.

Faraway-thousands and thousands of weary miles away-here are lights in the old home nad voices of friends in the town. Slowly it is realised that it is only the sea that stands be teten All the, old home are hidden away 'somewhere at the back of the cruel seal Ah that grey sea! It is not only the path home and the way out, but it is also the prison-gate ofthe heart. And those who, in their yearning, cross it in their dreams, have only the greater bitterness on awakening.

And this in truth I say with a' fall haart, for wake from my dreams of the East that I have Leow and loved to the grey skies of London -and am leŭ yearning-G E. Raine, in Pall | Mall Garatte
