The Practical Poet.
•When the golden stars are flashing <m the mantle of tQxe aky, When the nurht-wind croons and murnrara aa it swiftly hurries by, When the early breath of autumn, all the senses seem to steep, Then. I find bn* little trouble -when I want - ■'-' - to go to sleep. When the frost is on the rooftree and the snow is sifted round, When the wheels of early traffic raise a strange, complaining sound, When the plumage of the (branches on the frozen pavement lies, Then I find it most unpleasant when they call' me to arise. -^Cleveland Plain Dealer.
