THE PASSING OF THE TRAIN BOY.

In the West the day was dying;
Wintry cloud-ships near the sun,
In the sea Of crimson lying,
Told the day was almost done.
On his couch Of pain and weakness
Pale and still the train boy lies;
Beams his face with placid meekness,
GLOW with softened light his eyes.
''Comrades, ON both sides surround me;"
And he brightens with smile;
''ln two long lines stand around me,
Make my couch the Pullman aisle"
Even rs the wish he utters
Round they stand with wond'ring stares,
While in husky tones he mutters,
"Pearsl Fresh California pearsr
Then they tumbled to his faneies,
And at passengers they play,
While they snarl with surly glances,
"Naw !" "Don't want no pears Go way"
Then they closer stand around him,
Bending low to hear him say,
As though in the ear they found him
peanuts Roasted fresh to-dayP'
Then they boot in wild derision,
And in answer TO their scorn,
Loud he calls with kindling vision,
"Enghsh walnuts Fresh pop-cornf
AL the latest and the best booksi
Morning papers Journal Timesi
Daily Hawk-Eyel Roasted chestnutsi
Don't be stingy with your dimes.
"New laid figs The best imported
Handmade Abyssinian dates
Train stops while you eat one sorted
For the trade in canvas crates"
Thus his strength comes back with chatting,
And his comrades dry their tears
Fronideath's jaws he leaps and, laughing
Duns the train for fifty years.

Friendship.

All attachments subside after a
time but such as are founded on
the basis of congenial tastes, dis
positions and pursuits. We look
back with anguish on many things,
but on none with such bitterness
OF heart as on the unkindness of
those who were once kind. Real
friendship is not common blessing.
Love is but a more agreeable
modification of selfishness. When
its object ceases to give pleasure
BILE sensations, love takes its rapid
fight; but friendship, sublime
friendship, outlives misery, poverty
and old age.
