FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

Fortune brings in some boats that
are not steered.
Experience holds the first mortgage
on human wisdom.
In the meanest hut is a romance, if
you knew the hearts there.
It is always safer to displease few
than to try and satisfy too many.
A little real earnestness in our work
would accomplish wonders, but, alas |!
we are seldom in earnest.
A man should live with his superiors
as he does with his fire-not too near,
lest he burn not too far lest he
freeze.
Just thoughts and modest expecta
tons are easily satisfied. If we don't
overrate our pretensions all will be
well.

ORIGINAL POETRY.
"a CHARMING SIGHT"

Come, Muses. in thy power divine,
Endow with words this tongue of mine
To address line to charming maiden,
Who soon will part for distant haven.
When first entered in this town,
With ladened soul and heart pressed down,
I thought to have no rest Of mind,
For thoughts Of peace could nowhere find'
But as from my window chance to look,
At once this weight my heart forsook
For from there 1 saw ere the dusk of night,
A view which seldom meets mortaPs sight.
There moved about with charming grace ~
A beauteous form with soul-lit face;
Who then was using her fragile powers
In quenching the thirst of the tender flowers.
While from the window eagerly gazed,
As if by chance, her head she raised
And on her face was look so sweet
That 'twould cause an iron heart to beat.
/ have seen her in many places,
But always accompany her charming graces,
For virtues which usually stay apart,
Here seem to have blended in making one
heart.
Whenever am by troubles oppressed,
Or in mind or soul through cares oppressed,
If by chance this angel I see,
All my cares from around me flee
Oh, Frostburg! lofty town art thou!
In hundred feet more than eleven,
But when saw this happy sight,
think thou hast reached even heaven.
Oh, heavenly Muses. as she departs from here
Grant safe return within the year!
And in life's trials each path may she tread
Having thy attendants watching over he,
head. W.

MOLLIE'S COOKlNG-MATCH

I knew which was her work l would
vote for it in minute" says Mr..
Hill.
"Oh, but that would not be fair
says Mr.. Benott.
"Dreadfully mean of them not to in
troduce us until we've decided. A
regular girls trick to ask us to Se
judges, when we don't know any more
about bread than we do about flying.
Don't they make it of yeast and salt ?
I'm often enough sent for the former
said Mr.. Everett, yawning.
"That will do for you, Everett" says
Mr.. Benott, in great amusement.
sob, I suppose they add -four" an
swers Mr.. Everett "but come, Benott,
pass around the hat; Pm in a hurry to
get down stairs"
So they cast their votes and went
down stairs to announce that number
two, which was Mollie, had won the
match. Mollie flushed with pleasure,
and Jennie wasn't much disappointed.
Her failures in the kitchen had long
ago taught her that it took more than
a receipt book to make a cook.
The two young gentlemen were then
introduced to both young ladies', after
which, Mr.. Benott, as presiding
judge" with neat and witty speech,
presented the bonnet to Mollie, at the
end of which it was proposed that she
should try it on.
Mollie gracefully complied, and look
ed so bewitching in it, that Jennie,
under pretext of fixing the strings,
whispered in her ear:
"She tied her bonnet under her chin,
And in its silken meshes
She tied a young mans heart within"
The next morning when the girls
came to count up their gains, they
found that they had the desired six
months rent, and FIVE dollars besides;
which latter they decided should go for
such repairs about poor old Andy's
house as couldn't be done in any other
way. They visited him in a body and
told him of his fortune.
"May the howly Vargin and all the
Saints bless yez," said he to them in
his quaint Irish brogue, when he could
speak, for joy kept him silent for a
time.
The girls next went to work to fix
up the old car. They had panes of
glass put in, in place of the broken
ones. They tackled cotton batting all
around the doors and windows so that
no bleak wind could find It's way in,
and they made the daintiest white
muslin curtains for these same win
dows.
Elsie Hill hunted out an old carpet
which was being moth-eaten in the
garnet, and we girls ripped GU the
good breadths and cut and fitted them
to his floor, turning up the edges all
around, that there might be no draft.
Mollie helped him to clean up his one
little room, and also gave him some
hardy geraniums for his windows,
with which he was much pleased.
Jennie Bangs sent him a ton of coal
and l, ditto, load of wood. Lucy
Jeannes sent him barrel of -four,
and Mrs. Jay a couple of hams but
best of all for HIM, there came pen
sion from England; Andy had fought
many battle for the honor and glory
