The GAME OF EUCHRE AND LIFE There is
genuine humor in the idea that an Arkansas
man finds the most natural expression, even
of parting advice to his son. in the language
of the card table, and the manner in which
the terms of the game of "euchre" are there
fitted in the game of life is very ingenious:
"Bob you are about leaving home for
strange parts. You're going to throw me out
of the game. and 60 it aloue The odds is
against you, Bob, but remember also, that
industry and perseverance are the wining cards;
they are the bowers Book learning and all
that sort of thing will do to fill up WITH like
small trumps, but you must have the bowers
to back 'em, else they amt worth shucks. If
luck runs agin you pretty strong, don't
cave in and look like sick chicken on rainy
day, but hold your head up and make 'em b E.
leave you're flush of trumpS; they won't play
so hard again you.
I've lived and travelled around some, Bob,
and / have found out that as soon as folks
thought you held a weak hand, they'd buck
agan you strong. So when you're sorter weak,
keep on a bold front, but play cautious, be
satisfied with p'int.-Many's the hand I've
seen euchred d-'cause they played for to much,
keep your eyes we'll skin'd, Bob don't let 'em
nig' on you recollect the game lays as much
with the head as with the hands. Be temperate
never get drunk, for then no matter how good
your hand, you won't know how to play it !;
both bowers and the ace won't save you, for
there's certain to be 'missde al or something
wrong.
'Aud another thing, Bob, (this was spoken
in low tone) don't go to much on the women;
queens is kinder poor cards; the more you have
of them the worse for you; you might have
three and nary trump / don't say discard 'em
all; you get hold of one that's trump its all
good, and thar'S certain to be one out of four
And above all Bob, be honest never take a
mans trick wot don't belong to you; nor slip,
cards, nor mig, for then you can't look your
man in the face, and when that's the case there's
no fun in the game; it's irregular cut-throat.-
So now, Bob, farewell, remember-wot tell
you and you'll be sure to win and if you don't
sarves you right you got 'skunked!'

We don't forget thee, Mother,
Tho many days have past
Since we gazed upon thy marble brow
We knew it was the last
Rut Oh, we well remember
That solemn hour of prayer,
And how we slept so softly,
For we felt that death was there.
We can't forget the hour
When thy Savior called thee home.
And angels bright from glory,
Were hov'ring in thy roomi
That scene so sweetly awful,
To tell, we scarcely dare,
But O! that hour, how sacred,
For we felt that God Icds thrTs,
We don't foget thee, mother,
Tho time has swiftly flown,
And tall upon thy silent grave
The flowers and grass have grown;
The whtened marble rises there.

And oft it speaks in accents deop'
This is thy mothers grave
We can't forget thee, mother.
How racGnt is thy chair

Yea all, that once was thine.
To our 'reit heart, thy absence
In saddened notes doth chime.
We don't forget thee, mother,
Thy miniature we see,
That loved memento is most dear
Because 1t speaks of thee;
BY night, in dreams, thou oft art near.
Again, thou art our own,
Again, that well known voice We hear,
We wake-but thou art gone.
We don't forget thee mother.
Thy care and love expressed
Nor how our heart was smitteu
When first of thee berett,
Yet we would not recall thee.
Back to this earth again,
With pain and sin enthrall thee.
Tho ours should he the gain.
We don't forget thee, mother.
But off in glory bright,
BY faith we do behold thee,
Among the saints in light;
Released from earth and sorrow.
Crowned with immortal bloom,
With angels thou art bowling
Before the eternal throne.
