"A' trade, my son! That's a queer request,

And I can afford it as well you know;
And a trade, Jim, isn't that rather low?

To cram your train with classical knowledge;
Then to cliooie a profession than pleases you

T-No, father, I mean just what T say: '
I've thought of the matter for many a day,
And that is the serious choice I've made;
If you don't object, let me learn a trade.
You say it's low. but we don't agree;
All 'labor is honor' it seems to me.

The Fear of Death.

The fear of Death is natural. Eren
those who are decrepit with aize and
infirmities, in most cases cling t life.

think of consciousness :is utterly sus-
Dended in the grave this, apart from
the hopes t Uie gospel, we cannot but
shrink from.

which manv people are painfully snb-
