"Now, if Mr. Schulte would come," said Mrs. Waring, "we would ask him to take tea with us this evening; the poor man will be cold and hungry."

She went, and did more good than I had ever done. And it was in that sick-room that Mr. Waring first spoke to her." Elsie recalled the words in the manuscript, "What a new life came to me all at once when I met Harold for the first time!" "There are many kinds of love," continued the old woman in her quiet voice, "and it was given to those two to know the best kind of all.

But, alternating with these, appealed many of the shorter poems which have long since passed into the common treasure-house of all who care for poetry throughout the English-speaking world.
