and saw humor in the darkest things
(iiu n indeed my humor mis-served me
fur I made jest of things too solemn to
be so treated. Boon I became known
among my olassmates, at Harvard, as a
giddy pate, a light fellow, but a good
enough companion for a blue day. I
was held to have a most despicably
trilling disposition, und my every
word and deed was held to be as the
turn of a jest, insincere. Alone, I had
many a sorrowful mood; but the face I
showed to the world was always
merry, I brought laughter to many
lips and made my own life a merry
whim.
one day I found myself asking my
inner self a most earnest question. For
there had come Into my life a maiden
"o beautiful in form and spirit that all
the world took on n glorified look be
cause of her.
in the enchantment of her presence
all life became as nothing to me except
ii ii tallied her, And so in the
Stillness of thai soft Hawaiian summer
night with belching Pete's lurid light
on Kilauea's summit height, and the
stars as silent witnesses, I told her of my
'live. I waited for the lovolighl In
her eyes the herald of blis from her
lips; then I saw only that soft look of
reproach, that I knew so well,
"Surely, Maurice," she said, "You
carry your jot too tar!" She turned her
head away and sighed. And I, seeing
no hope for myself, said weakly, and
like the fool I w;is :
"Ay. ay .t was but II jest, only a jest "
She turned on me and there was spleu.
di 1 anger ill her eye-; as she spoke, "Oh
it was but ajesf was it .' Well it is a
sorroy one. Thou shall, for this jes
alone hereafter. 1 go. Nav. do not nur-
sue me one step farther, b'arewell ! 1''
be passed Into the night, like the
hoiies of my life. Realizing .bitterlv
ill my folly, 1 stood dazed. It came up
on me that -nad i not spoken that InM
piteous lie, that,
Ay, ay, it was but a jest," she would
have listened to a renewed appeal of
my passion.
Then the bitterness of my folly and
f ile overcame me, and 1 fell upon the
ground and burst into tears.
And since then "
Here the "King" mounted his ped.
estal before the Hawaiian Village, and
in his soft wheedling tones Cried
"This way, ladies and gentlemen, to
the Hawiiau Village! Bee the grent
theatre see the beautiful Hula Hula
Dancers. In their eyes lie the visions
of love; their brown depths glorify all
tbev look upon.
Their voices are so sweet that echoes
stand still and wonder, and their songs
are as the notes of a golden harp, play
ed upon by angelic fingers. Kee the
witchery of their very motion. It is
Dreamland for you-Don't-please don't
miss them."
Then I knew that Tobin was enslaved
by some dusky maid of the far off Pa
cific Land of Dreams.
