such frame of mind she stabbed Lizzie
Field. Learning that her suspicion was en-

Portable until she died. 1t was believed, of

mitigate her punishment, but when sem
tenced to five years Imprisonment, she de-
clared that the term was too short, as she

SMILE WHENEVER YOU CAN.

omAhG w h6NG EN- 1OO VAN.
When things don't go to suit you,
And the world seems upside down,
Don't waste your time in fretting,
But drive away that frown;
Since life is oft perplexing
IT'S much the wisest plan
To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whenever you can.
Why should you dread tomorrow
And thus despoil to-dayp
For when you trouble borrow
You must expect to pay;
1t is q good old maxim
Which should be often preached
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge is reached.
You might be spared much signing
If you would bear in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined.
There must be something wanting
And though you roll in wealth,
You miss from out your casket
The precious jewel-health.
And though you're strong and sturdy
You may have an empty purse
And earth has many trials
Which consider worse
But whether joy or sorrow,
Fill up your mortal span,
Twill make your pathway brighter
To smile wiener you can.
