BY JOHN JORDAN DOUGLASS,
A crown of wild roses tor thy brow
O Princess of golden dreams.
No costlier gift will love ullow;
'Twas plucked by ihe crysul streams.
For thy face is as red as the new pressed wine,
And thy lips a rosebud rare;
With a ripple of brooks in ihy eyes divine:
A glim of gold in ihy hair.
A crown of roses a gliuer with dew;
(Ah, I see ihee smile wiih teeth of pearl)
For a lovelier crown a queen ne'er knew,
My bonny, blue-eyed girl.
Mayhap I could bring ihee gilis from ihe sea,
And the jewels of many a mine;
Bui naught could utter my love for thee
Like roses fresh from the vine.
Within them the gold of the sunlight gleams.
And the silver of April rain.
Their petals palace a princess o' dreams;
Bui ihey vis with ihy beauty in vain.
For thy eyes are ihe blue of the arching sky,
' The rose of dawn is thy face:
The swan that swims on the lake nearby
Haih naughi 10 rival thy grace.
A crown of wild roses modest and sweet,
With the breath of ihe woodland so wild:
Where ihe brown doe hastens with velvet feet
And a man hath the heart of a child.
Though weulth could wreathe ihee a garland of gold,
Thou art tired of ii hong ago.
For love with such bunbles e'r groweth cold
Like a violet covered with snow.
So ihus I would crown thee my queen of the May,
As it were in the olden time;
Whilst Pan with his music pipes sorrow away,
And the rivulets ripple a rhyme.
And we'll dance like dryads neaih murmuring trees,
As the South Wind croons so low,
And the West Wind touches the magic keys
Whence Love's soft zephyrs flow.
0 Queen of the roses, I bow to the crown;
The woodland is bending, too;
For Queen Guinevere of the ancient renown
Was never so bonny and true.
The violets are smiling, the daisies are glad;
The buttercups hold thee a draught of the dawn;
1 drink to thy beauty with eyes of a lad,
Ere the vision of youfh is gone.
And then we will'hasten down to the sea,
Where the angel of diwn with a shell
Sounds the morn of melody
Like a far-toned silver bell.
Where sea builds castles of sand and foam,
And the gray gulls whirl and dip;
And beside it there we'll make our home, .
Till we beckon the golden ship:
The ship with billowing purple sail,
With roses climbing the mast,
Wiih jeweled prow abreast of the gale,
Her decks with pearls o'ercast,
For that is the ship for a rose crowned queen;'
It sails for the Isles of Rest.
Where ever the woodland's tender green,
Far out from the golden west.
And humming-birds drink the wine of the rose
While the dolphins pilot the way;
The lotus scentsevery vphyr that blows -
Ah, me, I was dreaming lis day 1

have been taking Ziron, and it is a wonderful medicine. It helped me
more than anything else, after I had the influenza. It is a great system
builder. I appreciate what Ziron has done for me." The merit of Ziron
has been proved by the good results obtained by thousands of men and
women who have taken it. You should try Ziron. Your money will be
refunded if '.he first bottle of Ziron fails to help you.
