BY U A HANDLEY. THE PES8IMI8T. Black looks the- sky to the pessimist sour .. H, The sun Is never shining Sorrow and troubles are meat for him, '- And always he's found repining. Is the weather cold, does the wind - blow high, Does It make the blood flow fastHe's sure disease will come with a run. And all go to ruin at last. The laughter and joy of childhood days To him are nothing but pain; He's borrowing trouble from morn 'till night And sings but a sad refrain. His face is long, his brow is black, His presence a cold rebuke. And if he should go to heaven at last 'Twill only be by a fluke. THE OPTIMIST. All hail the smile of the optimist, As he showers his blessings free; No matter what trouble or trials come up, The bright side's all he can see; He is the man with the jolly grin. Of such there are too few Who swings bis arms and loudly shouts, "Is it cold enough for you." He is the man who smiles at rain, And welcomes the gentle dew, Who whistles to keep his courage up When nothing else will do. He's the same old boy in August hot. When everyone's in a stew. Who smiles and shouts as you pass him by, "Is it hot enough for you." Moral. Has your luck gone back, is your spirit sore, Does nothing seem worth while? Then drink of the cheer of the optimist, And smile, darn you smile. There once was a blooming coquette, Who had all the boys in a frette, Her beauty she lost, And refused to be bost, And now she's a rank suffragette. THE USED TO BE. They used to say that flys kept off disease. Now they seem to be ' the cause of doctor's fees, And you're busy with a swatter, Every mother's son and daughter, Tho you'd better be a dog and full of fleas. Yes, the things we used to do are out of style. And the changes ring so fast they make you smile, Your appendix was secure From all trouble and its lure, Now it sits upon the mantle in a phial. SPRING. I love the spring with all my heart, I love the grass and mud; With leafy trees I'd never part, Nor with the swelling bud, But when amidst the welcome joys There comes that awful bore When carpet beating time annoys, It's "Katy bar the door."
