CHANGING SKIES,

Sweet the charm OF ftful weather,
weaving sun and rain together:
Now the gloom and now the fash,
Now the mingled, golden dash.
Even so vita %life-what charm
In It's mingled sun anC STORM.
In Its changes strange and fleet,
Days wher storm and sunshine meet.
Who would have life all as fair
AS noon with cloudless air?
Better showers and changing sky,
And the rainbow by and by.

This Is the work he gives to them.
To comfort, guide n bless.
To drop on bruised and Bching hearts
The balm of tenderness.

ALWAYS the PoIiteness.

A Germantown woman was not
long ago watching a workman as he
put up new window fixtures in her
house.
Don't you think you have placed
those fixtures too shigh?" asked she,
having reference to the curtain rolls
last put in place.
The workman, a stolid German,
made no reply, but continued to ad-
just the fixtures.
Didn't you hear my question:"
demanded the lady Of the house.
How dare you to be SO ruie?"
Whereupon the German gulped con-
.~vulsively and replied in the gentlest
of voices!
Il hat my mouth full of Schrews-
und | could not speak till I swallow
some!"-Harper's Weekly.

The Woodpecker and The Trusts.

"A woodpecker sat or a knotty
limb; his head was red and his temper
grim; for the world was out of whack
with him. He had hammered the
stumps till his head did swim; he
had looked for worms until his eyes
we're dim; he had punched each tree
and knot and limb, and darn the bug
wasn't there for him. Not a song he
sung not a woodland hymn, for how
can a bird with hunger slim, and
gaunt starvation grewsome, grim,
looking right into the eye OF him.
get up a voice like a cherubim, and
with melody make the welkin swim?
His crop was vacant, and only a within
was in the stomach of him. Then he
flew to the river and drowned him
and eve made an effort to swim.
His last words were o birdie trim,
why did you vote for that hawk so
prim, who got to work on each wood
land limb, and placed a trust on the
bugs of them? Pm like the farmer
gaunt and grim, who gets surrounded
by a rim of trusts that fill him to the
brim with wind till there's naught in
the stomach of him. The woodpeck-
was then out of breath, and the
fish that ate him starved to DEATH"
