SMILE WHEN VOC CAN.


When things don't go to suit you,
And the world seems upside down,
Don't waste your time In fretting,
But drive away that frown;
Since lille is eft perplexing,
'Tis much the wisest plan
To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whene'er you can.
Why should you dread tomorrow,
And thus despoil to-day9
For when you borrow trouble.
You always b6Ye, to pay

Which should beyoftenNpreached:
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge is reached
You might be spared much signing,
If you would keep in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined.
There must be something wanting,
And though you roll in wealth,
Yon may miss from your easket
That precious jewel, health.
Andthough you're strong and sturdy,
You may have an empty purse;
tAnd earth has many trials
Which ! consider worsel)
But whether joy or sorrow
Fill up your mortal span,
Twill make your pathway brighter
To smile wbene'er you can.

This is how Mary Kyle DalIes
speaks of them; Take q man and
pin three or four large table-cloths
about him, fastened back with
elastic and Iooped up with rib
bons; drag all bis own hair to the
middle Of his head and tie it tight,
and hairpin on about Eve pounds
of false hair and big bow Of rib
bon. Keep the front locks on pins
all night and let them tickle his
eyes all day; pinch his waist into
a corset, and give him gloves a
size too small, and shoes ditto, and
a hat that will not stay on without
a torturing elastic, and a frill to
tickle his chin, and a little lace
veil to blind his eyes whenever be
goes Out 70 walk, and ne Wlil know
what woman's dress is.
Here is another view on the
prevailing style of dress from
New York journalist: The rage
for tight-skirted dresses increases
with what are now called spring
fashions. You can now tell how
much a girl weighs by looking at
her. But ! notice that the real
ladies-the ones whose faces show
that they are sensitive, gentle and
modest---don't wear these very
tight dresses.

too much for me. I was on the

in spite of my feeble resistance,
dragged me into his chamber, and
laid me on lounge.
He first lit the gas; then undid
