Let's sing in cheerful strain;
A song to tighten labor,
And soothe the heart of pain.
A song of Gods own gladness
So full of hope and cheer,
That weary Wayside pilgrims
VIII gain new strength to hear.
Life holds for most, my comrades,
More happiness than pain;
God gives a day of sunshine
For every hour of rain.
So, trusting in the wisdom
OF His eternal plan,
Let's face the rain or sunshine
And do the best we can.
Oh, let us sing, my comrades,

The CLEANS of light that brighten
The lowering skies of gray
And as we sing about them
The shadows break apart,
And all the worlds in sunshine
Because were glad of heart

Burned for a Witch.

Not long ago, up in the mountains
north of Pacasmayo, near the town of
Cajamarca, the pious people burned an
old woman for witch. They had
suffered from various plaques individu-
ally and collectively, and in seeking
for a cause accused a poor old Indian
hag of witchcraft. The village padre
was consulted, and by his advice she
was burned at the stake, as was for
merly done to such persons in New
England. But the imitator of the Rev
Cotton Mather of Salem, Mass, was
arrested, convicted, stripped of his sac-
erdotal robes and sentenced for life to
the penitentiary in Lima, where he is

A hundred years ago it was consid-

shocked by a fashionable lady of those
days who cooled her tea with her

And it became apparent then
How small he was, in fact.
