A STORY FOR GIRLS.

BY

EMMA MARSHALL,

AUTHOR OF 'life's aftermATH;' 'DOROTHY'S DAUGHTERS,' ETC. ETC.

'All life is brief:

What now is bud will soon be leaf;

What now is leaf will soon decay.

The wind blows east, the wind blows west;

The blue eggs in the robin's nest

Will soon have wings and beak and breast,

And flutter and fly away!'-From KERAMOS.
