The Hand That Used to Spank NV "a.

When 60 down to grandma's, where
There's always lots Of cake and pie,
I spread my bread with jelly there
And stun up till nearly die!
The greatest fun you ever saw
Is slidin' from their steep-roofed shed,
And the hand that used to spank my pa
Is the hand that pats me on the head.
I tear around and yell and make
All kinds of noise, and they don't mind:
They have no baby there to wake,
And both of them are awful kind
The coolest man I ever saw
Is grandpa, with his hair all gray,
And the hand that used to spank my pa
sews UP my trousers every day.

The Mantle of Winter.

IHe H0ntIe OF WIhtGF.
AS the frost beads weep from branches
that are bare,
And the music Of the sleigh bells breaks
the air;
AS the hedgerows with their crystals all
are gemmed,
And the vessels in the harbors all are
hemmed;
Az the Ice-king cracks his whip across the
lakes,
And the Log upon the hearth his vengeance
takes,
And when no green stem of leaf or flower
Is found,
Then has Winter thrown her mantle to the
ground.

The Rrayerx of the Little.

The Bravery OF the Little.
We do not call the strong man brave
Who does not dread the darkened room,
But there is courage In the child
Who, filled with fear and fancies wild,
Goes trembling upward through this
gloom.
A thousand things are done each day
BY men whose talents are obscure
That should command the worlds high
praise;
We pass them in our thoughtless ways,
Forgetting they are weak and poor.
