FOR OCTOBER.
The Lila-cs. If there's anything that's sweeter. If thexe's anything "that's neater, If there's anything cornpleter Than the lilacs, in 'the spring, Oh, I pray you, let me know it. I will make great haste to grow ift. And to everyone will show it, And its praises loudly sing. There's not another flower That can charm you by the hour; There's p. sweet and subtle -power That the good old lilacs bring — Vanished forms and vanished faces Take their dear aceustome-d -placec, Al'i because t>f witching graces Of the lilacs, in the spring.
