GOLDEN THOUGHTS.
BY MILTON H. MARBLE.

BY MILTON H. MARBLE.
There Is no soul that walks alone
Upon this earth Of ours;
Zach one is led-perhaps unknown
And given sweetest flowers.
By some sgeet, kind. angelic hand,
Some guide, though all unseen,
whe walks wherein his footsteps stand,
With smiling, glsdsome mien
There 10 no heart, however drear,
Detected, sad and lone,
But hss its happy hours Of cheer
Which 1t may call its ovnl
No life 80 void OF all that's good,
But oft longs 10 be true.
And has, in hours OF solitude,
Hesrt-throbs for life anew.
There is no night that ia all night,
No cloud, hut glimmers through
Some CLEANS Of sunshine rosy bright,
Gay tints Of aEure blue;
There is no life, but, scanned we see
Within II some Of cheer;
No one 30 lost to harmony,
But is to some heart dear.

Probably chloride of lime is the best
disinfectant for ordinary use. 1t is in a
convenient form, and is inexpensive.
When sprinkled about in dry state, it
slowly decomposes, and sets the chlorine
free, which passes into the atmosphere,
and destroys any decaying organic mat
ter, which contains the germs of disease,
floating about III the air. Where there
is fear Of sewer gas in houses, the free use
OF chloride of lime is great safeguard.
