WHAT I WOULD BE,
t would be young -but not for ckarma.
Of Joys whiek years 'can trace, ,
Not for the witchinglpells tbat lie
In beauteous farm end fee ;
Bat for the winning cbild-Iike truit,
. The ardent lore of truth, '
The innoeence that brightest shLne
Cpou the brow of youth.
' I would be eloqneat but, oh! ' 1
Tbat thrilling powur I'd ute, '
Te right Ute wreogs of safTering Mi,a ,.
And hidden light diffuse.
X would be great but not for fame,
That liTelh but a day,
And while we list, its flattering speech
Is raniihiog away. -I
would be rich to bring to light
The hidden gems ef earth, ''
Which warmed by friendship', genial glow,
Would prove of priceless worth. .
I wonld be lored but not for wealth,
Or beauty's winniug smile;
For these can wake no antwsriag chord .
Within my heart the whilo.
I would be lored for spirit, pare,
For loveliness ef soul,
For over thcte the coming years
Can nerer hare control.
I wsul J be good oh ! yes, and then
The earth wetJd all be bright, .
' And life would sees oae pleasMS dreess-
Of pore,; BmU:d Se.igut:r:
And when the semmons earns, "Depart! .
For this is not your resv".- r
I'd gently Uy me down to eleep, ; , .', ,
Te wake among the bltit. '
Take from mo, then, the spell of yonth,
And talent, if yon will j
Be eloquence, as now, unknown,
Andjrre&tne-, stranger lull;
Let riobei plnme their wibgs and fly
In their cspriciou, mood j
Let no kiad words of lore be mine,
But oh ! Ut oe be gooi.

' And says you are both just and U,
A paragon ef grace.
Kot he who comes when fortune smiles, ..
To rerel at your board; . '
And thus "lbs idle hours" bsgvile,
While riches you afford.' "
Kot he who comes with- solemn strains
And toll) what others de;
Aad of bis fellow-man complains
Beware, he talks of yoa. ,
Kot bs who says a snare ts laid
"I'll toll yon if you choose :"
Ofsueh a friend lam afraid;

But he who loves you still the seme.
In sickness ss iu health;

And he who tries te hide yoer faults,
And bids you strive to uend;
Who in kin-loess doth your wrongs assault,

' A Good Josb. A loafer; while

to Itungc Aout thu b r and drink
oilier people' liquor. Not a glass

On returning he saw "Li pi .ss empty,

"Down wiili pint of lamp o I, or
you're a dead man in three minute!"
answered the wicked driver. ' And

he has never drunk other people's If
