A Distracted Parent.
five daughter- fourof them engaged
Good heavens ! I shall go modi
For tucb a surfeltlug of love
No parent ever had.
. Wltb It; uo matter where
I go about the honso 1 trip
Upon touie whispering pair.
t evening, when I take my pipe
And trek a quirt nook
To read the Kvk.vino Post, or else
Some new and tempting book,
I ope, perhaps, tho parlor door,
Wbeu a familiar sound,
Quite uiiinlHtnkable, suggest
It Is forbidden ground.
So then more cautiously I tarn
To oo r reception room:
But lo! ugain upon my oar,
From It romantic kIooiu,
Comes softly, yet with emphasis,
That warning, when I start
And leave, as I.aily Maolx-th wished
Her guests would all depart.
If y next resort In then the porch,
Where roues trail and bloom:
II a! Is it echo that bet ray
The Joys of yonder room f
Ah, no I a startled "chiingo of base"
Reveuls the presence there
Of Cupid's votaries, mid, nliu) t
There's still another pair.
'Hut euro," I think, "my library
Will be a safe retreat."
So there at once, with ciuL-kenod step,
I take my weary feet.
Vain hope that warning sound again
Ihonks on my liNtniii; ear;
Thank Heaven, my yodugtMt hat njt

. Attained her thirteenth year !
Ilurkt there she lei and, bleu my
heart,
That popinjay, young Lunn,
Is at hoc side 1 do believe
That she, too, has bos'un.
Oh, ye who love to sit and dream
Of future married Joys,
I'ray Heaven with honest fervor that
Your girls may all be boys.
