Wide eyed we gaze, and stretch our
arms to stay
The calm, slow movement of the dis
lance spanned
The Workman has decreed for you
and me.
And meath the ticking we can feel
the tears,
The magic of forgotten smiles and
fears,
And listening. sigh and watch again,
and see
The rounding of the sparely given
time;
Forgetting that each moment offers
Great aims and noble victories to
be won,
Before the echoing midnight watch
shall chime
When Death, the master hand, doth
strike the hour
To let us know our day of work
is done.

you-didn' fix up like you used to be-

In the last weeks Bee on this
page, small space was devoted to
young wives who allowed their APP

found with the husbands appearance
as that of the much abused wife. A
man will hurry through his dinner
he wants to get a shave--he is going
to spend the evening with his wife

did that before ne was married-he
has her now and she can't get away.
A man always uses the same philos-

when he's caught street car he's
been running after, he's caught TT

is in life, he caught the girl. why
should he exert himself; she is his

Idle tears? Tears are not idle;
They are but the mist and rain
That prepares us, as for bridal
When the sun shall shine again.
Idle tears? They have their mean

AS each gift Of nature hath,
Who knows-eyes perhaps need
cleaning,
And see better for their bath.
Let us revel in this turn of the sea-

supremely joyous in what it brings.
The pale tints of the summer flowers

rod is supreme along the roadside
and it's banks of sunshine enlighten
those who seek to know nature in
her ripeness; this is the time to
study. The sun sinks earlier. the
hours of light are shorter and twi
light comes earlier, it is natures day
it is her time of glory and the dark
days are near at hand.
An average man at the end OF life
Sat counting his life's mistakes;
And half of them he said to his wife
Were those that rashness makes.
And the other half-here he lifted his
head;
He could scarce believe his Wis
