Give Them Now.

fyou have gentle words and looks, my friends,
To spare for me-if you have tears to shed
That have suffered-keep them not, pray,
Until see not, hear not, being dead.
If you have flowers to give-fair lilly buds,
White roses, daisies, meadow stars that be
Mine own dear namesakes)-let them smile
and make
The air. while yet breathe it. sweet for me.
For loving looks, though fraught with tender
ness,
And kindly tears, though they fall thick and
fast,
And words of praise, alas! can naught avail
To lift the shadows from life that's past.
And rarest blossoms, what can they suffice,
Offered to one who can no longer gaze
Upon their beauty? Flowers in collins laid
Impart no sweetness to departed days

"You just try asking some child why
the sun doesn't rise in the west" When
opportunity favored l tried the expert
ment. I said to bright little girl
"Who made the sum-" "God."
"Where did He make it rise?" SIN
the east" "Well, can you tell me why
he didn't make it rise in the west p
"He wanted that place for it to set at, +"
was the reply.

Work and Wait.

A husbandman who many wears
Had plowed his fields and sown in tears,
Grew weary with his doubts and fears
| toll in vain These rocks and sands
viii vie d no harvest to my hands;
Inc best seeds rot in barren lands.
My dropping vine is whitening:
NO promised grapes its blossoms bring;
NO birds among its branches sing.
My flock is dying on the plain;
Inc heavens are brass-they yield no rain;
The earth is iron-I toll in vainr
While yet he spake breath had stirred
HIS dropping vine, like wing of bird,
And from it's leaves voice he heard.
1.-The germs and fruits of life must be
Forever hid in mystery,
Yet none can toll in vain for me.
A mightier hand, more skilled than thine.
Must hang the cluster of the vine,
And make the fields with harvest shine.
Man can but work; God can create;
But they who work, and watch and wait,
Have their reward, though it come late.
" Look up to heaven behold and hear
The clouds and thunderings in thine ear
An answer to thy doubts and fear.'
He looked, and To- cloud-draped car,
With trailing smoke and flames afar,
Was rushing to a distant star.
And every thirsty flock and plain
Was rising up to meet the ram
That came to clothe the fields with grain.
