that his ferry privileges gave him alone
the right to run any kind of ferry-boats
between the villages which had now
grown to such size that they called
themselves cities. The result was that
the railroads made contract with Joe
to carry their cars across, and he had
some large boats built for that purpose.
All this occurred good many years
ago, and Joe Lambert is not called Joe
now, but Captain Lambert. He is one
of the most prosperous men in the lit

GRANDMOTHER SERMON.


The supper is o er, the hearth is swept,
mn, ana IN the wood fires glow
Inc chlidr2n cluster to hear tale
VI that time so long ago.
When grandma hair was golden brown,
ana the warm blood came and went
" er the face that could scarce have been
sWeeter then
Ihan now in its rich content.
The face is wrinkled and careworn now,
AND the golden hair is gray;
but the light that shone in the young girls
Never has gone away.
And her needles catch the freight
AS in and out they go,
With the clicking music that grandma loves,
Shaping the stocking toe.
And the waiting children love it. too,
For they know the stocking song
Brings many a tale to grandmas mind
Which they shall have ere long.
But brings no story of olden-time
To grandma's heart tonight
S Only refrain. quaint and short,
Is sung by the needles bright.
:" Life is a stocking grandma says,
And yours is just begun;
But am knitting the toe of mine,
And my work is almost done.
: - With merry hearts we begin to knit,
And the ribbing is almost play;
Some are gay colored, and some are white,
And some are ashen gray.
. But most are made of many hues,
With many stitch set wrong;
And many row to be sadly ripped
Ere the whole is fair and strong.
"a There are long, plain spaces, without a
break, 80 #.iss ~ s5s5Fil5,&,
That in life are hard to bear;
And many a weary tear is dropped
As we fashion the heel with care.
. 8 But the saddest happiest time is that
We count and vet would shun,
When our Heavenly Father breaks the
thread,
And says that our work is done''
The children come TO say goodnight,
With tears in their bright young eyes,
While in grandma's lap, with broken thread,
The finished stocking lies.
