“Blithe and true and full of the sun.” My lady smiled at our fair conoeit,

And pressing the thorns beneath her feet,

The soft hours stole across the Jawn, And she came close and softly said,

“When the dew is dry and the leaves are gone, What will become of the white and the red?’

And I said: “In a garden the poets know, Where the laughter of youth grows never old, We will see the phlox and the lilies blow And the sweetbrier loving the marigoid.

‘‘We will walk the pathways without a care, Smelling the rose and the mignonette,

And you will be wonderfully kind and fair, And J wiil be still at my cigarette!”’ Theodore Roberts in Time and the Hour.

Thackeray as a Diner,

Many worthy and some notable persona have possesed the onion habit now and again. William Makepeace Thackeray. writing of himself in ‘‘ Lovell the Widow- er,’ says, ‘‘It is notorious to all my friends there is a certain dish I cannot re- sist.’? He referred to stewed tripe and onions, as a proof of which it isnarrated of him that on one occasion whileon his way to dine with the Marquis of Westminster his eye caught sight of a placard in the window of a London restaurant bearing the legend, “‘Tripe and onions tonight.” Going in, he oalled for the dish and writ- ing materials, and wrote off as an excuse to his would be host that he had unexpect- edly met an old friend that insisted upon detaining him.

Thackeray’s favorite edibles: were raw oysters and onions, and it may be recalled that he told Mr. Field, the Boston authcr, who acted as agent in his lecture tour in this country, that his chief purpese in coming to America was to obtain some of the famous large oysters of this land— which he had heard grew to fabulous size —instead of the little coppery things of England. At this first dinner of. Boston, | therefore, a plate of large *' Previdence Riv- ers’’ was set before him as an appetizer. He partook of one with a surprised lock. Being asked how he felt, he replied: ‘‘ Pro- foundly gratefal. I feel as if I had swal- lowed a baby.’’ He added that he must eat an onion to digest him,-—Philadelphia
