A man in his carriage was riding along,
A gaily. dressed wife by his side;
In satin and -laces she looked like q. queen,
Aud he like a king 10 his pride.
A wood saver stood in the street as they passed;
The carriage and couple he eyed.
Aud he said as he work led with:a saw on log,
II wish l was rich and could ride" l.fE
The man in the carriage remarked to his wife,
lone thing I would give if Iycould. lhealth
I'd give all my wealth for the strength aud the
Of the man who is saving the wood"
A pretty young maid withsa bundle Of work,
Whose face as the morning was fair.
Wen. tripping along with smile of delight,
While humming a love breathing air.
She looked in the carriage-the lady she saw,
Arrayed in apparel so fine-
And SAID in whisper, Il wistin my heart
Those satins and laces, were mine ~ SO
The lady looked ou. on the maid with her work,
Sotair in her calico dress, atiS
And said. II d relinquish position and wealth,
Her beauty and youth to possess" - !,
Thus it is, with the world; whatever our lot,
Our mind and our time we employ
In longing and sighing for what we have not
Unyraeful for what eIjoy.

go straight to the wide chimney and it's burn

move from one tireplaceless house into another.
But you have something just as good you say.
Yes, have heard of it, This age. which
initiates everything. even to the virtues of our
ancestors, has invented fireplace with
artificial iron or composition logs in it, hacked
and painted, in which gas is burned so that it
has the appearance of a wood fire. This seems
to me blasphemy. Do you think a cat would
lie down before itf Can you poke ~ If
you can't poke it, 1T is fraud. To poke a
wood fire is more solid enjoyment than almost
anything else in the world The crowning
human virtue in man is to let his wife poke
