Lover*' Lnne.
It goes beneath a checkered arch
Of leaf and sunlight, oak aud larch;
A thwart a mead of meadowsweet,
A held of lily-bordered wheat;
Through groves of bridal birch it turn
Aud mossy hollows, deep in ferns;
Then up a hill and down a glen,
From Nowhere out and back again;
Aud many feet have worn it plain?
The errant way of Lovers' Lane.
There, unafraid, the wood folk play
There wanton briers dip and sway
To catcb and keep whatever comes
And make much work for clumsj
thumbs
Of loosing tress end lacing shoe?
fciucb tasks as lovers love to do.
Ot tales there told with eye or tongu<
I need not tell?if ye were young?
i-> U1 JfCl UJ ulObica icaicu iu upaiu
By architects of Lovers' Lane.
If Lovers' Lane ye wander through,
That roadway's rule is "two by two,'
Although the path is wondioui
straight;
For here's a hedge and there's a gate
A brook, a stile, a quaking moss,
The strong must help the weak t(
cross,
Then, deep in shade ere set of sun,
Its dells are never safe for oneStill
(must the sorry truth be known?]
In Lovers' Lane I walk alone!

Are we expecting the cotton spinners lle*

unless the growers have the cotn?
We repeat again that the spinners of
tton will never come to producers 0011
r cotton until producers bulk their Mr
tton in such quantities as will war- a8(
nt their coming. It is well perhaps Sal
have these conferences with mill D'D
en in order to have a better under- to*1

There is no other occupation or

farmers must organize and bulk I
ieir cotton, and then spinners or any 9
