1t seems that there is some ono in This
community whose greatest delight lies in
trying to beittle some one else If they
would stick to tho truth no one would be
hurt, but Instead Of telling the truth they
tell willful falsehoods. If these tattlers
will stay within the bounds Of reason all
will remain quiet, but when they 20 to IN

The school at bethany, taught by Mrs.

The following poem was clipped from a
weekly newspaper and we think it worth
republishing. II WAS published several
years ago:
rSALM OF LIFE.
Tell lne not in Idle Jingle,
Marriage is all Idle dream;
For the girl is dead that's single,
And girls are not what they seem.
life is real, life is earnest.
Single b!essedness lib;
Man thou art. to man returnest,
Has been spoken of the rib.
Not enjoyment and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or wav:
But to act that each to morrow,
Finds liz nearer wedding day.
l.;'o is short and youth tlea.ing,
An" our hearts though light and gay,
still like pleasant dreams arc beating,
Wedding marches all the way.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
Ia iiu prime ur life,
BE not like tho bachelor In tattle.
BE hero and got a wife.
Lives Of married folks remind us,
We can live our lives as we'll;
And departing leave behind us,
Such examples as shall tell.
Such examples that another,
Wasting time in dlo sport
\ forlorn unmarried brother,
Soeing, slnii take heart and court
Let us then be up and doing
With "a heart on triumph get,
Still contrivipg, still pursuing,
Till ut last wife wo get.
With hest wishes tor the future OF the
