Thou who soonest truth Divine, 90 IS IS
Say-what joy, what hope is thinG y
Is thy soul from sorrow free? @x#
Is this world enough for thee!
Art thou willing to depart
MOTOR care corrodes thy heart.
Thou may'st laugh in broad sunshine
Scot, when sparkles red the wine
Thou dost tremble, when deep night
Shuts the pageant from thy sight.
Morning comes, and thou blasphemest;
Yet another day thou deemest
Thine; but soon its sight will wane;
Then thy warning comes again.
There's morrow with no night
Broad and blazing, endless light!
Should ito dawn thy dreams o'ertake,
Better thou didst never wake.

Darsgen TuaKIes.-An old lady, resident
Of country town, kept large family OF tut.
kies, perhaps sixty. She, like great many
other people, thought much Of her tofkies, and
consequently valued them very highly. OPP
poa,te her door was "West India Goods
S,ore.'' The man who kept il, one day emp.
tied his casks Of cherries, intending to replace
with new. This old lady being economical,
shought it a great pity to have all these chef
RE, ~ sted. and 10 order to have them saved.
she would just drive over her turkies and let
Them eat them. In the course Of the day how.
ever, the old lady thought che would look after
them and zee they were in no mischief. She
approached the yard, and 10! in one corner
lay her toikies in huge pile dead! Yes.
,hey were ..s,one dead" VIVA. was TO be
done
Surely the old ma,ron could not lose all the
feathers! She must pick them! She called
her daughters and picked them, Intending to
have them buried in the morning. Morning
came. and behold! there wese her torkies
stalking all ~. the yard featherless enough
as may be supposed-crying out "qnit, qais"
feeling mortified, no doubt, that their drunken
fl had been the means Of losing their coats.
Poor thiaps! ii they had said "qui." before
they had begun, they would not have been in
this bad hx.
We would advise all young men who are in
the habit Of drinking, to leave off before they
get picked and to those who do not, let every
young lady say "quit."-[Cin. Commercial.
