A Little Elbow Room.

Good friends. don't crowd so very
tight.
Theirs room enough for two
Keep in your mind tina. I've a right
To live as well as you.
YOU'RE rich and strong, poor and
weak,
But think you | presume,
When only this poor boon 1 ask,
A little elbow room.
lis such as you, tine rich and strong,
Ii you but have the will,
Could give the weak a lift along,
And help him up the hill
But no-you jostle. crowd and drive,
You storm, you fret and fume
Are you the only man alive
In need Of elbow room?
But thus it is on life's round path,
Self seems the globe of all;
The strong will crush the weak to
death,
The big devour the small.
Far better be rich mans bound
A valet, serf, or groom
Ihan struggle mid the mass around
When we've no elbow room.
Up heart, my boy don't mind the
shock;
Up heart. and push along
Your skin will soon grow rough with
knocks,
Your limbs with labor strong;
Aud there's q hand unseen To aid,
a star to light the gloom;
Up heart. my boy nor be afraid.
Strike out for elbow room.
And when you see amid the throng
A fellow-toiler slip.
Just give HIM as you pass along.
A brave and kindly grip.
Let noble deeds, though poor you be,
Your path in life illume.
And with true human charity
Give others elbow.room.

A Gritty Priest.

Kearney the notorious agitator of Sar
francisco. who was lately the leader of
the Commustic there, and who has been
deposed. headed deputation rscently
to the Roman Catholic Archbishop,
who after listning to wordy harangue,
addressed kearney as follows: "Mr.
kearny, l understand that you wish
me to mind my own business. Very
good perhaps you know what my busi-
ness is better than do. But, Mr.
Kearney, there is only one person who
is at present authorized to show me
how to mind my own business, and
that is the Pope of Rome. Perhaps,
Mr.. ksarney, if you write to him he will
transfer that power to you And now
let me tell you little story. Mr..
Kearney. have lived here great
many years. aud know the temper of
the people of California pretty well,
and long time ago. before you had
come to America, went to bed one
night leaving everything going on in
the city as usual. Well. Mr.. Kearney.
after comfortable nights rest 1 arose
and looked out of the window. and
there on the street was q poor fellow
hanging by his neck. dead. suspended
from the lamp post. He was poor
fellow who did not know how to mind
his own business. Mr.. Kearney, and that
was all. You mind your business
well, Mr.. Kearney. and l will mind
mine. Good morning That arch
bishop is. undoubtedly. a pretty good
specimen OF the muscular Christian,
and q thorough bred pacific slope
withal. l.-ANa.
