when one of the party proposed playing for

"uncle from Iowa won the preserved fruit,
and taking his hat and the can, said he must
ego home" This he considered =" good
thing" on the whole party. Arriving home
he found his wife seated by the table at her
evenings sewing. His appetite sharpened
BY drink, he quietly opened the can and
spread some bread with the contents. After
eating large slice, he remarked: " This
jelly's NOT very good! !" But spreading an
other piece, he took few bites, tasting it
carefully, and added "This jelly's sPoILT,
sURE!'
Here Il e wife her specs adjusting

ers that glow in profusion around my valley
home The spring winds are slightly strung,
and softly do they rustic the dark green
leaves of the old forest trees Night how
beautiful! how strangely beautiful! A para

'Night is the time for rest!
How sweet when labors close
To gather round an aching breast
The curtains of repose,
Stretch the tired limbs and lay the head
Down on our own delicious bed"

There is NO sunshine that hath not its shade,
