Lines Tenderly Dedicated To
The Bereaved Companion
Your bosom friend, your dearest one,
Now to The grave in given,
But, while his body we lay low,
Ills spirit rests in Heaven.
You are hereft, your lot seems hard,
Nature all dressed in gloom,
But why repine, while swiftly OH
You hasten tn the tomb.
4 few more days, or years at most,
You'll have to travel ON
before, il faithful, yon will meet
Where parting is unknown.
Then dry those tears, yuur heart be
And while yon kiss the rod. lstill,
In calm submission, may Won say,
''1by will be DONE Oh God.
-"DEP."

WHEN YOU ARE OLD.

when You are old and gray mi fnl Of sleep
And nodding by the Ere, take down this book
And slowly read and dream OF the fair look
Your eyes had once and OF their shadows deep.
uo,y many loved your moments OF glad grace
And loved your beauty with love false OF
true,
put ono man loved the pilgrim soul In you
And loved the sorrows OF your changing face
And. bending down beside the glowing bars.
Murmured a little sad, From us fed love. -
he paced upon the mountains far above
And hid his face amid a crowd OF stars.

The House Hat Eats Quantities of Lead

 One sf tho most persistent and de- struotiye assistants the plumber has is tho house rat. \ rat can eat out plumb ing as fast as an average honest man can pay for it. To rat greasy lead pipe is toothsomo moroeau. When hungry rat forsakes tho barn and finds bis way into tho cellar of a house and thence up through the walls to the Bpaee between the floors the first thing he'taelles is tho grease on tha outside of q lead waste pipe. If he finds other food shortly thereafter, he spares the pipe, otherwise he cuts the pipo and tho water. escapes through to tho ceiling below and ruins the plaster. The plumb er is sent Tor and repairs the leak, but he doesn't tell what caused it.
 Once upon a tiIne a rat was hoist by his own petard. so to speak FIo got into a house and found his way to q lead pipe, oil which ha t..ied his teeth. Ib was pleasant chewing and put 1ino edge on bis teeth, so he continued Soon ho had eaten 2 large hole in the pipe and a stream of scaiding water poured forth.
