That ho and Icecream were in unity ,
"Can you eat ice cream with impunity ? "
And ho made the reply ,
With n wink of the eye ,
"No , but I can with n spoon. "
But her triumph came soon ;
As they left the saloon ,
He gave her an opportunity ;
"And now , Benale , dear ,
As the weather is clear ,
Cm you take n walk with impunity ! "
Her smile was as bright as the moon ,
And dellciously shy
Came the mocktn ? reply.
"No , but I can with a spoon , "

IIODR Journey.
When our feet become heavy and weary
On the vnlloys and mountains of life ,
And the road has grown dusty and dreary ,
And we groan In the itrugglo and strife ,
Wo halt on the difficult pathway , _
Glance back 6vcr valley and plain ,
And eigli with n sorrowful longing
To travel the journey ngam.
1'or we know in the past there ore pleasures.
And seasons of joy and delight ,
While bcforo all is doubting and darkness
And dread of the gloom and the night ;
All bright sunny soots wo remember
And how little wo thought of them thenl
But now wo are looking and longing
To rett in the to places again ,
But vain of the vainest is sighing ,
Our course must be forward and on ,
Wo cannot turn back on the journey ,
Wo cannot enjoy what is gone ,
Let us hope then , as onward we travel ,
Tbnt oasts may brighten the plain ,
That our road bo boeido the sweet waters ,
Though we may not begin it again-
bVr existence forever goes upwnrt
Prom the hill * to the mountains we rise ,
3n. on , o'er invisible summits ,
To a land in the limitless skies.
Strive on , then , with courage unshaken
True Inbor is never in vainer
or glance with regret at the pathway
No mortal cau travel again ,
