Useful Jottings to Interest and to Instruct.

The Rival that I Love.

About his brow are clustering curlsCurls with a golden tint, His eyes are bright, and in their light I always find a hint Of triumph, when he looks at me And smiles in his witching way, " I share the heirt of the woman you love,* I hear my rival say.

The woman I love, I know loves him, Her manner tells me so. I covertly watch, and in her eyes I see the tell-tale glow Of a love as strong as the years are long And as deep as the mighty sea, And I often wonder which she loves best, My triumphant rival or me.

My rival and I are the best of friends, He surely will tell you so ; The tender heart of the woman we love Is faithful to both, we know. No envious thoughts nor jealous pangs Have disturbed my dream of joy, For tho woman, long since, became my wife, And my rival's our baby boy.
