The Pennies in the Box.

Pm Uncle Sans most favored pet,
I'm hearty and I'm hale;
I've nothing in this world to do
But glide round with the mail:
But one thing almost breaks my heart,
And my nervous system shocks;
It's the everlasting pennies
That I'm fishing from the box.
carry stamps and envelopes,
And postal cards and such:
And | would like To sell few
'rwould please me very much:
But a man can't selHuness you buy,
No matter how he talks;
SO have to keep on diving
After the pennies in the box.
It's alright in the springtime,
Or when summer bree2es blow,
But different proposition
When it's thirty two below,
When all your fingers and your toes
Are frozen hard as rocks,
It's most anything but funny
Scratching pennies from the box.
And now quite confidential,
III tell you something more:
A rural carrier way out west
Forgot himself and swore;
Says he: al can stand the snow drifts,
| can stand the frozen locks,
But blast the measly pennies
In the blasted measly box"
When the roll is called up ''yonder,'
And we all shall gather there,
They wouldn't let a mail man in
If they knew he'd learned to swear;
If you want ST. Peter to open the gate
When your rural carrier knocks,
Buy stamps and don't be guilty
OF putting pennies i'm the box.

PUSH.

If there was more push in the world
there would be fewer hungry, half
clothed, homeless, suffering children;
fewer broken down, dissipated men
and women; less need of aims houses,
houses of correction and houses for the
friendless. Push means a lift for a
neighbor i'm trouble Push lift for
yourself out of the slouth of despond-
ency and shiftlessness, out of trouble,
real or fancied. Push never hurts any
body. The harder the push the
better, if it is given in the right
direction. Always push up hill, few
people need push down hill. Don't
be afraid of your muscles and sinews;
they were given to you to use. Don't
be afraid of your hands; they were
meant for service. Don't be afraid
of what your companions say. Don't
be afraid of your conscience; it will
never reproach you for a good deed
but push with all your heart, might and
soul, whenever you see anything or any
body that will be better for good,
long, strong, determined push. PUSH
1t is just the word for the world that is
so full of work, as this is. If anybody
is in trouble. and you see it, don't stand
back, push. If there is anything good
being done anyplace where you happen
to be, push

Dreams of tho Blind.

Perhaps they are the glimpses which

Sometimes a wonderful light visits me
in sleep. Such a fash and glory as it
is! I gaze and gaze until it vanishes.
1 smell and taste much as in my wax
ing hours, but the sense of touch plays
a less important part. In sleep I al
most never grope. No one guides me.
Even in q crowded street l am self
sufficient, and l enjoy an independ-
ence quite foreign to my physical life.
Now I seldom spell on my fingers, and
it is still rarer for others to spell into
my hand. My mind acts independent
Of my physical organs. l am delight
ed to be thus endowed, If only In
sleep, for then my soul dons its
winged sandals and joyfully joins the
throng of happy beings who dwell be-
yond the reaches of bodily SENSE
