The sacred emblem Of our saviour's

Two Kinds of Boys.
Chronicle Telegraph

(ChrOnicle-Ielegrap
Two little boys, / have in mind
Equal talents IN each you'll find;
Mlschief-lovlng. to sport inclined,
And full of noise.
All these. and more. are here combined
In my two boys.
One OF these boys your patience tries;
The faults he has you must despise;
BE he handsome. well-clothed, or wise;
Tall. fat. or gaunt:
1t is the one who always cries:
Il can't! / can't!'
Instead OF doing with his might
All that he can before the night,
He'll try to push IL out Of sight
To sulk and shlrk;
One half the force expended right
Would do his work.
The other Is a little man,
Who lays his work out by a plan.
Thus getting done all that he can
AS moments fly;
He has no other motto than:
I'm try! I'll try"
In heat or cold, in shade or sun.
All that he does Is promptly done;
But when It's Ger and leisure won.
He plays his best;
This Is the boy that has more fun
Than all the rest.
Which will you be. my bonnie lad?
The friends Of one are often sad;
The other makes his always glad
By loving work.
So choose the good and shun the bad,
And never sh'rk.
