v A WS I f PI A Poef af Home* By He.en Leah Reed. ; From "Brcn3a, Her School and Her ; Club." Copyright, 18W, by Little, Brown . & Co. . ':j When Julia asked Brenda one a tcr- , noon if she would not iike to go vv th her ■ to cail oh I>.'. Holmes, she declined with thanks, and left Julia free to invite Edith. ! As the two friends walked up the short ; flight of stone steps to the front door, ; their hearts sank a little. To make a rail on the poet was really a rather for midable thing, and they pressed e:.V other's hands as they heard the maid opening the door to admit them. "Just wait here for a moment," said the maid, after they had inquired for the master of the house, and she showed them Into a small room at the left of the entrance. It recmci to he mercy a r. c:p tion room, but it was very pretty with its white woodwork and large-flowered yellow paper. There was a carved table In the center, with writing materials and inkstand, and little other furn'ture be sides a few handsome chairs. Tall book cases matching ihe woodwork occupied the recesses, and they • were v filled with l>ooks in substantial bindings. .-/J In a moment the maid had returned .-lind asked them to follow her. At the head of the broad stairs they say/ the poet himself standing to meet them with outstretched hand. When Julia men tioned Edith's name, "Ah," he said, "that is a good old Boston name, and, if I mistake not, I used know your grand father.' and then when Edith had satis lied him on this point he turned to Julia, and. In a bantering way, spoke of the services she had done him that windy day. Then he made them sit down be side him, one on each side, while he oc ctipied a large leather armchair drawn up before his open fire, and asked them one or two questions about their studies and their caste In literature. "As he talk- ; ed, Julia's eyes wandered to the bronze figure of Father Time on the mantelp'ece, and then to the little revolving bookcase on which she could not help noticing- a number of volumes of Dr. Holmes' own works. The old gentleman following her glance, said: "They make a pretty fair showing for one man, but my publishers are getting ready to bring- out a complete edition of my works, and that—well, that makes me realize my age." After a moment, as If reflecting, he asked quickly, "Does either of you wiite poetry?" "Oh, no, sir." answered Edith, quickly "we couldn't." "Why. ii jvirt so \cry hard," he said "at hast l should judge not l-.y the nm- u t copies of verses that are sent to me to examine. Poetry deals with coml mon human emotion, and almost any one with a fair vocabulary thinks that he can express himself in verse. But nearly everything worth saying has been said. Words and expressions seem very felicitous to the writer, but he cannot expect other persons to set his work as he Eees it." "It depends, I suppose," said Edith, shyly,, "on whose work it is." "I am afraid," replied the poet, ."that there is no absolute standard for verse makers. It has always seemed to mo that the writer of verse is almost in the position of a man who makes a mold for aplaster cast or something of that kind Whatever liquid mixture he puts into that mold will surely fit it. So the verse is the mold into which the poet puts his thought, and from his point of view it is sure to fit." Though Edith may not have grasped the lull force of the poet's meaning, Julia was sure that she understood him Do you really have a great deal of poetry sent you to read?" she asked. "Every mail," he answered, "brings mo letters from strangers—from every corner of the globe. Some contain poems In my honor, as speciments of what the poet can do. Others are accompanied by long manuscripts on which mv opin ion is asked. J am chary now about ex pressing any opinion, for publishers have a way of quoting very unfairly in their advertisements. If I write 'your hock would, b3 very charming were it not so carelessly written.' the publisher quotes merely 'very charming,' and prints this in large type." Both girls smiled at the expression of dro« sorrow that came over the poefs lace as be spoke. '■And 1 am so very unfortunate my self, he added, "when l try to get an autograph of any consequence. Now I sent Gladstone a copy of a work on trees m which I thought he was interested He returned the compliment with a copy ©i one of his books. But"- here ha paused, "he wrote his thanks on a post card Again the girls laughed. "Dear me! ho concluded, "this cannot interest for7 O etryr'UreS Hke 3'°U: d° yOU care 'Oh. yes. indeed we do," cried Julia "and we iust love poetry." : "VVell, well." said' the poet with a pinkie in his eye. "perhaps you would iike to hear me read something?" The beaming faces that met his glance Were a sufficient answer, and, taking a volume from the table, he began, in a SllV'SprSion* trlfle hUSky ' thoU^h TblßfS th€ BWp of pearl> whichpoets Sails the unshadowed main— The venturous, bark that flings On the sweet .summer wind its venturous wings In gulf 8 enchanted, where the Siren si n g . And coral reefs lie bare, Where the cold.sea maids raise to sun their streaming hair," - v; When he had finished the stanza he looked up inquiringly Julia" Chambered Nautilus," murmured "Ah, you know it then?" said the poet. "Oh, vcp. I love it." she answered. Then with a smile of appreciation ad- ! jUHtJi.g his glasses, Dr. Holmes read to ! the end of the poem in his wonderfully j musical voice. When it was finished I the girls would have liked to ask for ' more, but the poet rose to replace (he volume. "Come," he said, "you have lis tened to the poem which of all I have written J like the best, now I wish to Bhow you my favorite view." Follow- j Ing him to the deep bay window, they looked out across the river. It was much the same view to which Julia i was accustomed in her uncle's house and yet it was looking at the river with | new eyes to have the pcet pointing out I all the towns, seven or eig-ht in num- | her, which he could see from that win- | dow. Somerville, Mcdford, Belmont, Ar lington, Charlestown, Brookline, and one or two other?, jerh&ps, besides Cam bridge with ita spires and chimneys. "In winter." said Dr. Holmes, "there ! Is not much to see besides the tutr boats and the gulls. But in the early spring it Is a delight to me to watch the crews rowing by, and an occasional pleasure boat. Ah! 1 remember—," but what it v/as ho did not say, for as Edith turned her eyes toward an oil painting on the wall near by, he said. "Of course, you know who that is; of course you recog nize the famous Dorothy Q. Now, look at iho portrait closely, and tell me what you think of that cheek. Could you Imagine any one so cruel as to have Struck a sword into it? Yet there, if j your eyes are sharp enough, you will ccc 1 ■where a British soldier of the Revolu tion thrust Ills rapier." When both girls admitted that they could not see the scar, "That only shows," he said, "how e'ever the man was yi'ho made the repairs." Before they turned from the window h>' made them notice the tall factory chimneys on the other side of the river, which ho called his thermometers, be cause, according to the direction In which thoi smoke curled upwards, he was able tr> tell how the wind ble^, tytd decide in what direction he should walk. "Remember," he said, "when you reach my ago always to walk with you back to the wind." And at this the girls sTniied, they feeling that It would be many years before they should need to follow his ad vice. Yet during their caH how many things they had to see and to remember! He let each of them hold for a moment tho gold pen with which he had written •■'El.«ie Vcnner" and the Autocrat papers, •nJ Julia turned over the leaves of the POPULfIR WANTS AGENTS AND AGENCIES.

Dr. Holmes call ed their attention to the beautiful land-] scape on one wall done in fine needlework' by the hands of his accomplished daugh-! ter-in-law; and he told them a story or! two connected with another picture in the' room. Jula, as she looked about, thought! that she had seldom aeen a prettier room '< than this, with its cheerful rugs, massive I furniture and fine pictures, all so simple I and yet so dignified. When the poet! pointed out the great pile of letter* lying: on hiP desk, he told them that this "was! about the number that he received every' day. "But you don't answer them all," ex claimed Edith, almost breathlessly. "No, indeed," and he laughed; "my sec retary goes through them every morning and decides which ought to be given me ' to read, and then-well, if it is anything very personal I try to answer it myself Often, however, I let her write the an swer, while I simply add the signature Edith gave Julia a little nudge; they were both at the age when the possession of an autograph of a famous man is something to be ardently desired. But neither of them had quite dared to ask Dr. Holmes for his. It is possible that he saw the little nudge, or perhaps he read the eager expression on their faces, for almost before they realized it he had placed in the hand of each of them a small volume In a white cover, and bid ding them open their books, he said Well,- I must put something on that bare by-leaf." So, seating; himself at his table with a quill pen in his hand, he wrote slowly and evidently with some effort the name of each of them, followed by the words "With the regard? of Oliver Wendeli Holmes," and then the year and the day of the month. As he handed them the books, he opened the door. a.n<l with a word or two more of half-bantering thanks to Julia for her assistance on that windy day, he bowea them down the stairs. So impressed were they by the visit that they had little to pay until they reached home, where they found Mrs Barlow a very sympathetic listener.' Brenda, who happened to be at home looked with interest at the little volumes of selections from Dr. Holmes' writings with their valuable autographs, and said' Well, you might have taken me, too " "Why, Brnnda, I am sure that I asked you, said Julia, "but you declared that you would not speak to a poet for any thing in the world." They all laughed at this, a proceeding which this time did not annoy Brenda Mrs. Barlow admired the little books But I hope that you did not stay too long, she said gently, "for I have been tola that Dr. Holmes has a way of send ing off a guest who tire* him by bringing out one of these little gift books" "Oh. T don't think we tired him," said Julia; "at any rate he was too polite to show it, but I'm glad that we have the books. Camfonla Via the "Sunshine Route" (C, 81. & St. P. Ry.).
