Your burden is heavy, I haven't a doubt, But others have loads they must carry I t about, I And they are not whining. I Some people are glad if but half of I the way I Lies out of the shadow, or part of the 1 day, I They see the sun shining. J Suppose you try smiling. 1 ' I know you are lonely, but other hearts I ache, And bravely refuse to be bitter or break, Because of life's sorrow. I They think of the joy In the land far I away, 1 And hasten the slow passing of hours J of today I "With hopes of tomorrow. 1 Suppose you try smiling. I i This funny old world is a mirror, you I know. I Turn its way with a sneer or face of a I foe, And you will trouble, I But meet it with laughter and looks full of cheer, t And back will come sunshine and love I true and dear, I Tour blessings to double. I Suppose you try smiling. ! All peaces are open to those who are I glad, I Too many lack courage, too many are 5 sad. And skies will be clearing. So sing with your burden, the way is not long. And if you look upward your heart I will grow strong, I And skies will be clearing. Suppose you try smiling. I MAYNOOTH COLLEGE. 1 Ordinations to the Priesthood.

(John Gibbons, in the Dublin Freeman's Journal.) I have wandered near and far, 'Neath a dimmed and luckless sar, Over many a plain and prairie, lake and bay; Where the Rock mountain lies, Or the Andes' summit rise, But my heart is in that homeland far away; Where the Moy runs to the sea, And the winding Owenree, Through the valleys murmurs ever soft and low; Where my kindred are at rest, In the wild and changeful west, 'Moag the heather hills and glens of old Mayo. Oh, I love the rugged north. There is not a place on earth. That has nurtured braver hearts than Innishowen; Munster beautiful to see Shall be ever dear to me; Aye, and Leinster, where the Ard Rlgh had his throne, Blessings on each hill and vale. From the Causeway to Kinsale! And on every heart with Banba's love aglow! And the scenes around Clew bay. Where I saw the light of day, 'Mong the heather hills and glens of old Mayo. I Ah. was there you could behold Nature's wonders manifold! When the angels ushered in the dawn so fair. And the night clouds scattered far, Like the broken ranks of war, And the mountains rose like crouching giants there; . Or at eve of summer days, When the sunset's golden rays. Chased the shadows near and far and high and low; N Foreign scenes may fairer be. Give the hallowed ones to me. 'Mong the heather hills and glens of old Mayo. i There the days seemed never long, Mingling with the merry throng. That would gather in their frieze and homespun grey; Manly tillers of the soil! How they'd greet you with a smile. And would send you with a blessing on your way. Broken-hearted now they roam. Crowded cities far from home; Yet whatever lucks attends them where they go. They will yearn and hope in vain, But to live their youth again, 'Mong the heather hills and glens of old Mayo. From old Erris Head to Cong, 'Tis a lonely road and long. And there's ruin now where plenty used to be; , But no foeman can efface Love of land and pride of race. From the hearts forever longing to be free. God be with each pleasant scene! Mountains brown and vales between! And may wrath and ruin fall upon the foe, And the spoilers of the night! Who have darkened what was bright. 'Mong the heather hills and glens of old Mayo. a Ordinations at Waterford. At Waterford cathedral on Sunday, June 2S, the Most Rev.

Last Saturday evening, after sewing two patches on our Sunday trousers and cleaning and ' pressing them we hung them out to dry. An hour later we found that they had been stolei.. This will explain why we were not in our accustomed place in church on Sunday. The human being who will deliberately steal a pair of trousers from the editor of a weekly paper, and knowing that they are his only pair for church-going, deserves a worse fatt than our indignation will allow us to mention. It seems to us as if civilization civiliza-tion had been turned back half a centuryHometown cen-turyHometown (Pa.) Banner. j"Get Words." There was much good sense in a remark re-mark made upon the swearing habit in our hearing the other day. "Easy to say 'break off,' " quoth John Doe. "Easy enough," rejoined Richard Roe; "buy a dictionary and get words." A too limited vocabulary Is one of the causes provocative of profanity. And, personally, some of the most voluminous volumin-ous swearers that we ever met were men whose command of unprofane slang and of queen's English did not run into more than three hundred or four, hundred words. Habit, of course, forces its chains on this as on other frailties. But a sufficient command of clean speech should of itseif tend to diminish the temptation to eke out ideas with the speech that, if more profane, is less clean-cut and expressive. expres-sive. New Zealand Tablet. Have a Fellow. (Congregationalist.) The effort of the Ladies' Home Journal Jour-nal top rod pastors and church members mem-bers to greater effusiveness in welcoming welcom-ing strangers to public service may lead to overdoing hospitality in various ways. One of these ways was revealed to a warm-hearted western pastor. Coming down from the pulpit after the evening sermon he found a stranger in the person of a fair-haired Swede, and, greeting her with a cordial handclasp, said, "I am very glad to see you. I want you to feel at home here. I'd like to become acquainted with you. If you'll give your address I'll call and see you." "Thank you," she replied, "but I have a fellow." Correct? (Christian Register.) A teacher in a public school asked the children to define the word "advice." "ad-vice." . "Advice," said a little girl, "Is when other people want you to do the way they do.'

The blossoms of the peach tint the new day, The maid yet lingers in, the sheltered fold, Her father's house for her the twinkling twink-ling gold Shines in the garden, and the river way Shows spikes of flower-de-luce; the flush of May Brightens for her, for her tbre clouds are rolled Beyond the azure, and old secrets told By new-born birds no shadows near her stay. Wait, wait, O Maiden, stepping into light, And listen to the Voice within your heart, Like that which spoke to Her through Gabriel; The gleams in peach-bloom and narcissus nar-cissus white - Are not the Light of the World; these will depart ' List to the Voice, and, then, O Maid, choose well.

Ah, what tender thrill Steals o're my heart with blest and holy power, Like some sweet chord ov.ee touched and sounding still. As soft returns the momery of that hour. Throughout the days since then, on wings of light, How swiftly have the happy moments mo-ments fled! But none has brought me in their onward on-ward flight A joy that o'er my life such peace has shed. Such glad and deep and full, such heavenly hea-venly peace. As thfcn was mine, when first within my breast To bid its waves "be still," its tempest cease. My Jesus came to be its loving guest. How gently stirred the early morning air; The dawning light its tenderesl shadows cast, The very flowers low bent as if i:. prayer. Seemed whispering to Jesus as He passed. And lower still my spirit bowed and sighed ; "My sweetest Jesus! 'neath Thy loving lov-ing smile, When shall I evermore with Three abide?" He softly answered: "Yet a little while." "A little while" yea, Lord, 'tis quickly o'er. "A little while" to bear the Cross for Three, Along the way where Thou hast gone before. And borne it long and lovingly for me. Endure my soul: the weary day will close. The circling hills their evening shadows cast, And lulling all my longings to repose The night will fall; the "little while" be past. Most loving Jesus, Thou my joy replete, re-plete, Oh. let me in that moment, dark and lone. Embrace Three in on last Communion sweet. And pour my glad thanksgiving at Thy throne. The Calendar. Chicago. A New Inscription. A woman among women, to whom we doff our hat and bow low in token of highest respect, is Mrs. Dora Kennedy Ken-nedy Maathews of Detroit. She is a. graduate of the University of Michigan, Michi-gan, which ought to be very proud of her. At the rooms of the Alumni association asso-ciation of that institution is a register for the "old grads" who go back there on visits. Space is indicated for the home address, the year of graduation and the present occupation of the signer. We learn from the Modern World that Mrs. Mathews registered with an inscription which has never before been recorded on the books. It was : "Dora Kennedy Mathews. Home address, Detroit, Mich.

A young man of Boston who had failed to pay his laundry bill endeavored endeav-ored to turn his Chinaman aside from Inquiry by an attack upon the Celestial's Celes-tial's manner of speech. "Why do you say 'Fliday,' John?" he asked. "Say Fliday because I mean Fliday." replied John, stoutly. "No say Fliday, and mean maybe week after nex'. like Meli-can Meli-can man." |
