THE SCOFFER, If I had lived in Franklin's lime I'm mosi afraiJ that I, Beholding him oul in ihe rain, a kiie about 10 fly, And noticing upon iis tail ihe barn door's rusty key Would, with the scoffers on the sireel, have chortled in my glee And with a sneer upon my lips I would have said of Ben, "His belfry must be lull of bats. He's raving, boys, again." I'm glad I didn't live on earth when I'ulion had his dream And told his neighbors marvelous tales of what he'd do with sieam, For I'm not sure I'd not have been a member of ihe throng That couldn't see how paddle wheel could shove a boat along. At Fulton's folly, I'd have sneered as thousands did back then And called the Clermont's architect the nuttiesi of men. Vet Franklin gave us wonders great and Fulton did the same And many "boobs" have left behind an averlasting fame, And dead are all the scoffers now and all their sneers forgot And scarce a nickel's wonh of good was brought here by ihe lot, I shudder when I slop to ihink, had I been living then, I might have been a scoffer, too, and jerred at Bob and Ben. I'm afraid today to sneer ai any fellow's dream, Time was I thought men could'nt fly or sail beneath the stream, I never call a man a boob who toils throughout the night On visions thai I cannot see, because he may be right. I always think of Franklin's trick, which brought the jeers of men And to myself I say : "Who knows but here's another Ben?" WHY HUSBANDS LEAVE HOME.

The mellow disk of the harvest moon Lightens ihe dusk to a silver moon. For 'tis autumn-liine in the meadow ways, And over ihe fields is the autumn hae, And see, where the tail stalks cm ihe air, The gold of the corn gleams softly lair.
