And grasp his hand so warm he'll know
he has a friend in you;
Then Ak him what's a-hurtiu' him. an

And tell him the darkest night is Just
before the day.
Don I talk IN graveyard palaver, but say
1t right ont loud
That God will sprinkle Sunshine IN the
trail Of every cloud
This world at best is but hash of pleas
ure and of pain;
Some days are bright and sunny, and
some al sloshcd with rain
And that's just how it ought to be, for
when the clouds roll by
Wen know just how to 'preciate the
bright and smiling sky.
So learn TO take it as it comes, and
don't sweat at the pores,
Because the Lords opinion don't coincide
with yours;
but always keep rememberin', when cares

That God has lots of Sunshine to spilI
behind the cloud.

Anything and everything was liable to
stick and make more or less noise when
you finally got 1t open. A window might
stick at first and then go up with a

I'd been pushing on it for a long time

There's constant danger of something

SUNSHINE.

SUNSHINE.
A little spot of Sunshine,
Came like a patch of gold,
And fell upon a flower bud,
AS 1t Shivered in the cold.
The dews of night had drenched it,
Its tiny head was bare;
Its whole form seemed to culver
Chilled by the morning air.
But when the Sunshine kissed it,
In just a little while,
Its blushing petals opened,
And answered with a smile.
So. often in Iife's trials.
When all the world seems cold,
One Bove-word spoken to US,
Comes like this patch of gold.
Its glow breaks through the night mfsts,
1t floods the heart with light;
And gIadnesS like the morning
Succeeds the darkest night.

Passing of the Vermont

So the old Vermont is to go the way
of ali things. After several decades of
useful but undistinguished service as a
receiving ship at the Brooklyn yard,
h is to be broken up and cast into
the fire England does not so with her
honorable relics. She chops them to
pieces, to be sure, but she converts
them into furniture. and at this mo-
ment a London firm is making a Spe-
cialty of chairs and tables made from
the seasoned oak of one of Nelson's
flagships, and the British are presuma-
ably ~scrambling for them. To put ones
legs under a board that has withstood
the shock of French and Spanish shot
and shell, and that had Quivered to the
salvos of victory. is a great satisfac-
ton to a patriot. The o u would gain
in heat and the wine in richness when
served on such a table. AS there are
sound timbers in the old Vermont, it
seems as if they might be put to an
equally good purpose. There are such
timberS in the.ribs and keel and deck
beams, in spite of the rot that has set
into her thinner works.-Brooklyn
