No groom was in waiting. A little beg

In his efforts To escape the boy fell

the curbstone, and he lay stunned and
bleeding. The angry girl gave him not
even glance of pity, resigned her horse
to the groom with loud, sharp words and
swept proudly into the house, leaving she

But il she was regardless Of human

THE BRtoAT SIDE.


III one looks upon the bright side
IL Is sure to be the right side
AT least that's how I've found IL as I've Jour
neyed through each day.
And it's queer how shadows vanish.
And how easy tits 70 banish
From bright side sort Of nature every dole
ful thing away.
There are two sides to question,
AS we know; 30 the suggestion
of the side which holds the sunlight seems
most reasonable TO me-
And, you know, we can't be merry.
And make our surroundings chccry,
II we will persist in coddling every gloomy
thing we see.
There's sensible quotation
Which will ht in every station
We all know it-"As the twig is bent, so Is
the tree inclined"
And the twigs Of thought we're bending,
IL to ways OF gloom we're tending,
VIII be pretty sure to twist and dwarf and
quite deform the mind.
There's n way of searching over
The wide skies till we discover
aAc on WY, OT INC
weather that we love:
And the blue may fast be hiding
Back OF clouds which swift arc riding.
Yet we knew the blue is shining still, and
spreading FAR above.
And while that will last forever
tFor the true blue faded never.
The dark clouds must soon or later be dis
persod and fade away:
And the sweet bright side" still shining,
VIII meet the eyes inclining
To watch for il and welcome Il, however
dark the day.
So my friends, let's choose the bright side,
just the happy, glorious right side,
Which will give us health and spirits lust As
long life shall last;
And the sorrows that roll DER MS
Shall not always go before us
IL we keep a watch for blue skies, and will
hold its sunshine fast

year no fires Of any consequence have

but IL they happened TO be outside Of
the limits and a man came in sight they
