Night, and blaok Bkies Above the brave ships tossing on the foam; And yet I know somewhere the Imbor lies Badiant with love and home 1 Night— but for me I Still light 1 liaht! light where darkest I storms shall cease ; 0 lonely land ! 0 black tempestuous sea— I pass from you to peace ! — Fbank L. Stanton. NAMING IHE BABY. . They talked of Modora, Aurora, and Flora, Of Mabel and March, and Mildred and May; Debated the question o£ Helen, Honora, Clarissa, Camilla, and Phyllis and Fay.
