Give and Live,

Give and Live.
Forever the sun is pouring gold
oii u hundred worlds that beg and
borrow;
His warmth he sauanders on SUBMITS
cold,
His wealth on the homes of want and
sorrow;
To, hold il. his largess of precious light
Is to bury himself i'm eternal night.
To give
Is to live.
The flower blooms not for itself at all,
Its Joy is the JOY that diffuses
OF beauty and balm ii is prodisal,
And 1t lives in the life it loses;
No choice for the rose but glory or doom.
To exhaie or smother. TO wither or bloom,
To deny
Is to die.
The seas lend silvery rays to the land
The land it's sapphire streams to the
ocean;
The heart sends blood to the brain of
command
The brain to the heart it's lightning
motion,
And over and over we WELD our breath,
Till the mirror is dry and images death.
To live
Is to give.
He Is dead whose hand is not open wide
To help the need of a human brother:
He doubles the length of his lifelong ride
Who of his fortune gives to another;
And a thousand million lives are his.
Who carries the world in his sympathfes.
To deny

How to Work While You play.

A French collaboration of Thomas

machine which is also piano. Its
mechanism is SO arranged that every
time the operator strikes a note on
the keyboard, she completes one
stitch. A single waltz will hem three
handkerchiefs-B symphony
will sew an entire trousseau. Thus,
the dressmaker can work and play at
one and the same time, and the more
they play, the more they work. To
bring the invention fEto the vogue It
so fully merits, schools will be es-
