If it has come to thee to make foe,
Then do praise thee; all with thee Is well.
What Wouldst conceal it? Nay, be not ashamed
To have foe, for he who cannot bear
To have foe deserves to have no friend.
He must thy foe be who's foe to freedom,
And he must be thy foe who fears the truth,
And he must be thy foe who strives with jus
tice,
And he thy foe who swerves from honor's
pathway,
And he must be thy foe who has no friends
But only partners in his deeds of mischief
And he must be thy foe who has no foes,
Because to win himself the worlds good pleas

He speaks the world soft. Bear thou gladly
Ali bad men 3 hatred-it is weak and harmless
And stand thou forth like beam pure and

OF heaven s own radiance, SO by thee enkindled
All good mems hearts shall glow and gather

Thus to thy foes themselves show thou true
friendship
BY yielding not to them in word or look
Or in thy conduct or by silence even

Tho Veteran.

Tho veteran.
The old man sits within his tent
His woodlands tent, for long ago
he left the field where bugles blow
And yells of rage and cries of WOO
With cannons' roar and smoke are blent.
He fought in youth for freedom IS sake
And from his veins in CORY strife
Poured forth youth precious stream of life
Yea, as lamb bleeds meath the knife
He willing sacrifice did make
And then when glory touched his brow,
Along with thousands Of his kind,
Content that he might thus be signed
With her approval, all his mind
Turned to the combats of the pillow.
Yet habit and that fond. strange love
We often cherish for the things
Wherewith we have met fortunes stings
And brushed gainst destiny's grim wings
We're why he to his old tent Glove
And fought the battles of the soil
With spirit not less brave and true
Than when the flags star spangled blue
Across him, like pail, they drew
Amid wars waste and wreck and spoil.
But to his tent still would he keep,
As il it were talisman
Guarding his worn frame in the van
Of labor till his earthly span
Should end and let the soldier sleep.
And SO he waits one other fight,
Still in his tent, all quietly
Drawing the nameless entity
Whose grasp shall vanquish, yet set free
Beyond tho sable veil of night

One freighted hour, one moment opportune
One rift through which sublime fulillment:

One time when fate goes tiding with TIM

One once in balance 'twixt too late, too soon
And ready for the passing instant's boon
That shall in favor tip the wavering beam.
All happy he who, knowing how to wait,
Knows also how to watch and how to stand
On life's broad deck alert, and at the PROV
To seize the happy moment, big with fate,
From opportunities extended hand
When the great clock Of destiny strike

1t Would Be Better.

II more would act the play Of life
And fewer spoil 1t in rehearsal;
If bigotry would sheathe his knife
Till good becomes more universal;
If priestcraft, gray with ages grown,
Had fewer blind men to adore il:
II talent shone
In truth alone,
We all would be the better for it.
II men were wise in little things,
Affecting less In all their dealings;
II hearts had fewer rusted strings
To isolate their kindly feelings;
If men, when wrong beats down the right,
Would strike together and restore It,
II right made might
In every fight,
We all would be the better for it.

Melodies.



A robin sang.
The dull world Weakened from its sleep,
Cast off it's robe of winter sadness,
Tho leaves from bondage gan to peep.
The brooks o erflowed in jolly madness.
All nature listened to the warning
And laughed with glee in springtime's morning
When robin sang.
A poet sang.
II was song that reached the heart
OF many man, Of every woman.
It was the fruit Of perfect art.
1t showed a power divinely human.
His name was known to all, and then
Fame on her tablets wrote it, when
The poet sang.
A mother sang.
Two little eyelids binked and dropped,
And bright curls nestled on her breast.
GOVERNMENTS bounty richly trooped
Sweet innocence found loving rest.
The slumber fairies tiptoed near,
And all the angels stopped to hear
When mother sang.

Loves Illusion.

When I'm with her.
The sky is arched with deeper blue,
The flowers are decked in richer hue,
And glad fields seem to smile anew
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
More gentle is the niurmur Of the brook,
More sweet the songs from dell and nook,
And ever glad is life's old story book
When I'm with her.
Whcn I'm with her,
The sunset paints bright sky,
The distant ships quiet at anchor lie,
And hours like moments hurry by
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
The moonbeams fall in softer light,
The bright stars laugh upon perfect night.
And all the world is filled with truth and right
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her.
My Maynard heart seems nearer pure,
OF God and future then I'm almost sure
And naught from right can me allure
When I'm with her.

SIS Life Worth Living?"


Life is worth living If we live Alright,
Eyes to the front, the final end in view
The end when all aims trivial or untrue
Must burst like airy bubbles on our sight
Life is worth living If we do our best.
Our best is often greater than we dream.
Immortal souls with mighty forces teen:
They are revealed by him who makes the
quest.
Life is worth living when our secret thought
Hides no least wish or impulse, hope or aim,
That can bring disappointment sorrow.

Or hurt TO any fellow beings lot.
Life is worth living when we strive to be
OF greater use tomorrow than today,
Molding ourselves from rough, unsightly
clay
To something lovely for the world to geo.

I've KEEP summer boarders for years and al
lowed
knowed all the sorts that there be,
But there come an old Teller last season along
That turned out beaten for me.
Whatever that Teller was arter VOW
hain't got the slightest idee.
he had an old bait net of thin. rotten stuff
That minner could bite his way through
But he never went fshin-at least in the way
That fishermen gen ally do
But he carried that bait net wherever he went;
The handle was Tinted in two.
And the bottles and boxes that chap fetched
alongl
Why, doctor would never want more!
II they held pills and physic, he'd got full
enough
To fit out medicine store
And he'd got heaps of pins, dreftie lengthy and
slim,
Alters droppin about on the floor.
Well, true as live, that old Teller jest spent
His hull days in loafin about
And pickin up hoppers and reaches and flies
Not to use for his bait to ketch trout,
But to kill and stick pins in and squint ut and
all.
He was crazy's coot tn amt no doubt.
He'd see q poor miller a-hyin along
The commonest, everyday kind
And he d waddle on after it, fat as he was
And foler on softly behind,
Till he'd flop that air bait net right over his
head.
And I'd laugh till nigh out of my mind.
Why, he'd lay On the ground for an hour at a
strotch
And scratch in the dirt like hen;
EIaSd no horbr Of ht7ch md
trees
And turn the stones over, and then
He'd peek under logs or he'd pry into holes.
I'm glad there amt no moro sech men.
My wife see q box In his bedroom one day,
Jest swarmin with live caterpillers.
He'd fed 'em on leaves off of all kinds of
trees
The ellums and birches and willers
And he'd got piles Of boxes, chock full to the
top
With crickets and bees and moth millers.
I asked him one time what his business might
be.
OF course fust made some apology.
He tried to explain, but seeh awful big words!
Sort Of forren, outlandish and collesey.

He was tryin to Jest enter mology.
And Hannah, my wife, says she's heerd Of sech
things:
She guesses his brain warn t so meller.
