SUNSHINE,
I know the whole crowd of young fellows,
Who (ravel the run through our town,
And aotno are all lauhin' and pmilin',
While others are robed in a frown
Uu! liuj one that does tiusincm, I notice,
No malter what may bo liii line,
Is the man who pours out with each tncasuro
A "bonus" of bubbliDg sunshine,
I'm not much forrcadin' nor Icamin'
Nor ejpyio' wisdom from books ;
I ain't stuck on new fads nor fashions,
Nor wealing tight shoes for their looks ;
Just jamming your hoUBe full of money
May seem to this age a good sign,
But I b'licve in the old fashioned doctrine
01 filling your heart with euushioe.
The world has gone mad over gamin'
The preachers are carpin' at trusts
'The rich ain't content with the center
They grab and fight for the crusts
'The palace is dark, damp and dingy,
Where shadows and ghost fo-irs intwine ;
While the cot of the poor, humble peasant
la bright with the rays of sunshino.
AVould I barter the light for the darkness ?
Would I give up my life for your gold ?
AVoold I sacrifice precept and manhood
At altars where honors are sold?
!No, still let Ore live free and simple,
And practice his teaching divine,
To fill one sad heart, dark with sorrow,
With the blessings and light of sunshine.
TEARS,
Tears, idlo tears, I know not what they mean,
Tears from the deptha of some divine despair,
Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,
Io looking on ihe happy autumn fields,
And thinking of the days that are no more.
Fresh as the first beam glittering on a sail,
That brings our friends up from the underworld ;
Sad aa the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we love below the vcrgo;
So sad, so frcb, the days that are no more.
Ah, sad and strange as in dark summer dawns,
The earliest pipe of half awakened birds,
To dying ears, whon onto dying eyes,
The casement slowly grows a glimmering square ;
So sad, slraoge, the days that are no morj.
Dear as remember'd kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feign'd.
On lips that ore for othors; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret ;
0 Death in Life, the days that are no more."

THE WHY IT GOES.
An Atohison man and his wife had
two sens and two daughters. With tho
arrival of the first baby they began plan
ning about how their children ahou'd be
"eduoatcd." The woman did her own
work, and the man worked, serimped,
and both denied themselves every pleas
ure. The boys were sent to college and
the girls were educated in t boarding
school. The children are men and wo
men now; the parents having spent every
cent on their education, aro poor and de
pendent upon them. This is what their
education has done fur their children .
One son has a government position; GO a
month and no hope of promotion or a
raise. The other son learned a trade
from a "common" fiicnd of his and is
getting along pretty well, in spite of hia
college training. One daughter married
a dry goods clerk, and has forgotten her
French and German in talking baby talk
to her two babies, and Ihe scienoes she
studied at soliool do not help her mu-sh
io mapping out her work, which iocludcs
washing and ironing. The other daugh
ter married a country school teacher, and
her "education" is only an aggravation,
as what she knows dors not agree, always
with what her husband kn iws, and they
have more Butjcte to quarrel over than
ih ivernire mariied couple. And the
poor old parents, with every cent sunk
io four "educations," are Using first with
one child and then with another, and
are not any too welcome anywhere. At

There is not a country bred man or

life can offer nothing comparable with
the innooent s:st of that old style of
conning that was done at Binging school
in thc starlight and candlelight of the
first half of the oentury.
There are few hearts so withered and
old but thoy beat quicker sometimes
when they hear in old fashioned churches
the wailing, sobbing or exulting strains of
"Bradslrect" or "China" or "Corona

current ol these old melodies to that
fresh young day of hopes and illusions
of voices that were sweet, no matter how
false thoy sang; of nights that were rosy
with dreams, no matter what Fahrenheit
said; of girls that blushed without cause
and of lovers who talked for hours about
everything but love. "The Blood Seed

I s little parable by an uo-
nown author leaches its own
lcson:
A hen trod on a duck's fuot. Sho did
not go to o'o it, and did not hurt tho duck
much; but tho duck said, "I'll pay you
for thai!" So tho duek flow at the old
hen, but as site did so her wings struck
an old goose, who stood closo by,
"Ml pay you for that 1" cried Ihe
goose, and sho flow at the duck; but as
she did so her foot tore tho fur of a cat
who was just then in the yard.
"Ml pay yon for that I" cried the cat,
and she started for the goose; but as she
did so her claw caught in the wool of a
sheep.
"Ml pay you for that 1' cried the sherp;
and she ran a', the cat; but as she did bo
her foot hit the foot ol a dog who lay in
the sun.
"Ml pay yon for that I" cried he, and
jumped at the sheep; but as be did so
his leg struck an old cow who stood by
the gate.
' I'll pay you for thatl" cried she, and
she ran at the dog; but as she did so her
horn grazed thc skin of a horse who
stood by a tree.
"Ml pay you for thatl" oried he, and
he rushed at the cow.
What a noise there was! The horse
daw at the cow, and the cow at the dog,
and the dog at the sheep, and the sheep
at the oat, and the cat at the goose, and
the goose at the duck, and the duck at
the hen. What a fuss there wast And
all because the hen accidentally stepped
on the duck's toe.
"Hi! Hil What's all this?" cried
the man who had the care of them.
"You may stay here," he said to the hen;
but he drove the duck to the pond, the
goose to tho fi -Id, the cat Io the barn,
the sheep to ber fold, tho dog to thc
house, tho cow to her yard, and the
horse to his stall. And so all their good
times were over because the duck would
not overlook a little hurt which was not
intended.
"A little explained,
A little endured,
A little forgiven.
The quarrel is cured."

AN APPROPRIATE TUNE.
The chaplain of one of bis majesty's ships
was giving a magio lantern lecturo, the
subject of which was "Scenes from tho
Bible." Ho arranged with a sailor who
possessed a gramophone to discourse ap
propriate music between the slides. The
first picture shown was Adam and Evo
in the Garden of Eden. Thesailor oud
gelcd his brain but could think of noth
ing suitable. "Play up," whispered tho
chaplain. Suddenly a largo id;a struck
the jolly tor, and to tho great consterna

thc audience the gramophooo burst forth
with tho Blraina of "There's Only Ooe

J this effect:
i Spanish proverb to
"The road of by and
by leads to the town of Never." Most
proverbs are tho contrasted statements of
important truths, and this is not an ex
ception. Wo aro all familiar with the
men who are going to do great things by
and by, They are to bo found in all
ranks and all vocations,
Thcro was a scholar who talked for
halt a lifetime of tho great book he was
going to produce. Ho purchased an air
pie supply of stationery and indulged in
many sanguine dreams of the reputation
his book would bripg him, but when he
died not a line had been written.
Ho was a man of talent, and could
have written a book that would have
done him credit, but tbo fatal habit of
procrastination made his life barren of results.
The active and successful workers of
sgeB have been quick to decide and
prompt to act, They wasted no time in
talking of what they intended to do, but
set to work and did it.
"Write me an article on the financial
question," said a busy city editor to a
gentleman of elegant leisure.
"I will some day," was the reply.
The editor shrugged his shoulders, aod
wrote Ihe articlo himself in time for the
morrow's papors. It seems to bo true
that the busiest men undertake new
tasks most readily. They are so trained
and disciplined, mentally, they aro always
in a condition to work. No one is likely
to achieve large success io any field who
consumes too much time in getting
roady.
The general must be ready to march
at fivo minutes' notice. If he requires
a week of preparation the foe will be out
of his reach, or will have struck tho first
blow aod gained the first advantage.
Another proberb contains an equil
amount of truth: "Tho man who hesi
tates is lost." A friend of ours was of
fered a real estate investment at a very
favorable price. He knew it to be a de
cided bargain, but he was in tho habit of
making up his mind at his leisure. At
the end of a fortnight he concluded to
make the purchase. Three days later he
roado an effort and called upon the parly
with whom he meant to deal and bigni-
Gcd his acceptance.
"My dear sir," was tho response, "I
gave a deed of tho place two days after I
offered it to you to another parly. If
yon wanted it why didn't you say so at
the time?"

There are long rivers the rushing Bwecp
of which drain tho heait of the

granite peaks, alien and remote, far
up into the clouds; scarred clefts and
oanons, deep wooded valleys that hint of
savago withdrawal from human assooia
ciation. The mysterious aod barbaric
land of thesas, and the great primeval
forests that whisper aod rustle, and gleam
and gloom in light and darkness, and
through every season of tho year. The
forest that is never seen twice in the
same aspect and never tells the same sto
ry; ia as silent as the grave, and yet ii

unseen life; as changeful aud mutable as
human thought, and as mysterious as the
impulses that sway human acts,

had delivered spoech for the prosecu

wis thro'igh, Lin"')lri, who wss s!tom;y
for the defense, rose slowly to hia feet
and, with that quiet dignity and droll
wit for which ho was so noted, eddiessed
the court aa follows:
"Your Honor, my colleague, who has
just delivered this brilliant exhibition of
oratory, reminds me of a little flat-bottom
steamboat that way back in the 50's used
to poll up and down the Mississippi. It
had a five-foot boiler and an eleven foot
whistle, and every time it whistled
stopped."
