SUFFICIENT UNTO THE DAY.

Why should you dread the morrow,
And thus despoil to-day?
For when you Dor ow trouble
You always have to pay.
1t is a good old maxim,
Which should be often preached
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge is reached.
You might be spared much sighing
If you WOULD keep in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined.
There must be something wanting,
And, though you roll in wealth,
You may miss from your casket
The precious jewel-health.
And though you're strong and sturdy.
You may have an empty purse
(And earth has many trials
Which l consider worse);
But, whether joy or sorrow
Fill up your mortal span,
twill make your pathway brighter
To smile whene'er you can.

Sounds Heard in a Balloon,

Mr.. ]. NJ. Bacon, who with his
daughter made II lofty balloon ascent
to observe meteor shower, tells some
interesting things about the sounds
that reached their ears. At the height
of 5000 feet the ringing of horses feet
on hard road could be heard At
1000 feet the splashing sound made by
ducks in a pond was audible. The
barking of dogs and the Growing of
cocks could be heard at 1000 feet Or
5000 feet. These sounds penetrated
through n white floor of cloud which
hid the earth from sight In the per-
feet silence of the air around the bal
loon they were startled by what
seemed stealthy footsteps close at
hand. Investigation showed that this
sound was caused by the stretching of
the ropes and the yielding of the silk
as the balloon continued to expand
