servant in such way that the minion isn't
aware of it, But some people don't know how
to do this, and consequently servant that is a
jewel in my well regulated household is utterly
useless in my neigubor's service. Now. not
long ago had occasion to part with a colored
man. didn't want 10 cast him out upon the
cold world, because feared that If the world
got too cold he would come back to me. So
unloaded him upon neighbOr. never had a
ripple OF trouble with him. had employed
him ostensibly to groom a horse occasiOnaily
ana NOW the lawn once or twice year. soon
learned that he was running an African dOrmi-
tory and poker layout in my stable, and the
general appearance OF my premises finally
brought me letters from the American Mission
ary Union asking permission to establish one
OF their Congo out stations betwe.n my barn
ana the kitchen. This, as much as anthing else,
induced Inc to part with Albert. He shipped
with me under the nom de plume of Albert
Wilson, but noticed that some OF the natives
called him '.Lame jake and he requested me-
him Thompson Easley. BY and by my neigh

won't do one thing tell him, not a thing"
''Oh, WELL" said, me tried that on me, too,
when he first came, but settled that in short
order" "How did you manager" asked NV
neighbor. "Well,"I told him, II quit telling
him to do anything" And do you know my
neighbOr was real angry with me and abused
me, and said l was fool and had deceived
him. You see, he had no tact That very night
Albert landed on my coast again. He confided
to me that his real name was James Sinclair
and he brought with him his brother, whom he
introduced as Walter Taylor. They took up
their old quarters in the barn and boarded with
me for a week, before was able TO secure them
places In the county work house. They both
lett me with sincere regret, and Albert said in
parting. that any time wanted him to come
back, q letter addressed to Charles Martin would
reach him. Albert was saddle coiored pagan
but he was the richest man in names I ever
worked for.

In these new quarters, but shortly before his
death she disappeared: Stewart looked upon

pon,t You Ihink So 2

IT'S al very well to be jolly
When everything going just right,
When, In summer, skies showing no hint OF
shadow, the sun shining bright,
When around you your merry friends cluster
With many laugh-bringing jest,
And wherever you turn you discover
The world in its gala robes dressed.
But, ah ! tits sublime to be jolly
When mirth-loving spirits have fed;
When your path is in gloominess shrouded,
And the tempest bursts over your head;
When fainter hearts beg you To cheer them,
Though your own heart be lonely and drear,
And you scarce can help doubtingif ever
The darkness viii quite disappear.
The bird that sings sweetly when golden
The earth is and gentle the wind,
When the bees hum their joy DER the honey
That, hid in the flowers, they find,
When, vieing in beauty and fragrance,
Red roses and white lilies grow,
And butterflies, splendid in raiment,
Through their airy realm fit to and fro,
Is dear little songster; but dearer
Isthe bird with its joy-giving ltrain
Undaunted triIls loudly and gayly
In spite of the chill and the rain
For that to be Jolly it's easy
In sunshine there isn't doubt;
But, ah! tits sublime to be jolly
When there's naught to be jolly about.
