their families as,ir betimes, must awaken
them with the aroma of the steaming
coffee or breakfast tea, which is better

LIFE is BUTA GAME OF CARDS.

This lite is but game of cards
Which each one has to learn,
Each shuffies, cuts and deals the pack,
And each a trump does turn.
Some turn a high card to the top,
While others turn a low,
Some hold a hand quite flush with trumps
While others none can show.
When hearts are trumps;we play for love,
And pleasure decks the hour,
No thought of sorrow checks our joys,
In handsome rosy bowers.
When diamonds chance to crown the pack
It's then men stake their gold; ~
Large sums are often lost and won,
By gamblers young and old.
When clubs are trumps, look out for war,
On ocean or on land,
For bloody deeds are often done a
When clubs are in the hand.
The final trump of all is spades,
Turned by the hand of time; ! 81
No matter where man may live,
In cold or torrid cline,
No matter what a man may lose,
Nor how much he may save.
You'll find the spade turns up at last
And digs the players grave.

any animals which policy would dictate
the gobd treatment of, it is the milch COW
1t should be remembered that 1t is only
the food she CONSUMES beyond what is
required to support the natural waste OF
the system, that can afford surplus in
the way ofmilk. Hence, the food which
would barley support two cows and leave
nothing for the owner, if eaten by one
cow would enable her to return the value
of one-half of it in milk.
