A world CT somber hue;

And the sky is fair and blue.

BY HENRY VAN DYKE.
THESE are the gifts ! ask

Strength for the daily task,
Courage to face the road,
Good cheer to help me bear the trav-

And for the hours of rest that come
between
An inward joy in all things heard

These are the sins l fain
Would have thee take away:
Malice and cold disdain,
Hot anger, sullen hate,
Scorn of the lowly, envy of the great,
And discomfort, that casts a shad-

On all the brightness Of the COM

In a world of dreams I have chosen
my part,
To sleep for a season and hear no
word
OF true loves truth or Of light loves
art
And only the song of a secret bird.

In the early days he was unmoved when
some sudden stroke OF bad luck wiped
