"The palm is his" was the general cry, when
a third put in his claim.

the rascally people stole nearly everything Ihad,

Good gracious exclaimed the Englishman,
''and have you never found her 2"

This is the trying moment-the brief period
of suspense. Chose now the course you viii
pursue. Decide whether you will stand idly
by-whether you will loiter about the enterance
to active life or fear of making a failure, Of
whether you will risk all in manfully treadne
the discordant waves, even if you die in the
effort.
Such is active life It is one continuous
round of joys and sorrows, of pleasures of diff
culties, peaces and disturbance, harmony anc
vexation, and of the latter, and securing the
greatest amount of the former, win undoubtly
be the happiest ofmortals.
Let no one fear to launch his bark, be il
