THE FRIENDS OF LONG AGO.

When | sitin the twilight cleaning,
And the busy streets grow still.
| dream of the wide green meadows,
And the old house on The hill.
| can see the roses blooming
bout the doorway low.
Aud again my heart gives greeting
To the friends OF long ago;
Dear long ago!
| can see my mother, sitting
With life's snow flakes in her hair,
And she smiles above hes knitting,
And her face is sanity fair.
And | see my father reading
From the Bible on his knee;
Aud again | hear him praying
As he used TO pray for me-
SO long ago.
| see all the dear old faces
OF the boys and girle at home,
As | saw them III the dear old days,
Before we had learned Co roam.
And | sing the old songs over,
With the friends | used to know,
And my heart forgets its sorrows
In its dreams of long ago,
Dear long ago.
How widely our feet have wandered,
From the old homes tender ties,
Some are beyond the ocean,
And some are beyond the skies.
Ny heart grows sad with thinking
OF the friends | used to know;
Perhaps | shall meet in heaven
All the loved of long ago
Dear long az

BLOW Your Own Horn.

Blow your own horn. Yes, give it a
blast, and let modesty blush if it will.
This false delicacy has been the stumbling
block Of thousands of really good and
capable men. Make a noise; it will at
tract somebody. Let the world know
that you are still alive and intend to
drive things until you get to the top Of
the hill and make a fortune. To the
man of energy and perseverance, noun
tains are but mole hills. lis only the
drones that fail. They are always look
ing on the black side, predicting disaster,
always complaining of the hard times,
always waiting for something to turn up.
Such men never will find good times nor
prosperity. Neither will they ever find
friends or admirers among first class
business men. If you would succeed in
anything, don't stand still. Go ahead.
Don't be afraid DO something. If you
don't blow the horn somebody else will,
but not for your benefit except Gin a
horn"
