The Brussels Post, 1886-8-20, Page 3Aura. 20, 18870, lo.etrar, EVERY DAY. Vile world le growing wiser, Every day. SBiantitio men revise her, Every day. Population growing bigger, Giving more work to Death digger, Moro respect paid to the nigger, Every day. This world is growing prouder, Every day. Female roosters Browing louder, Every day. Aristocrats are growing lazier, Politicians are growing crazier, Making things grow somewhat hazier, Every day. Tho world is growing drearier, Every day. Many oto growing wearier, Every day. Many leave this world of evil, And, I'm thinking, on the level, Many are going to the devil, Every day. TI --JE DARLING FLY. Oh, the fly's a riser early, Nowadays. And he mama the sleeper eptly, With his lays, He is very, very froth, And he has an eye for flesh, To amaze. He's a most persistent fellow__ Ts the fly ; You may kick the bedstead mallow, Or may try, But yon can't frighten hint; He'll return with greater vita. liy and by. Well ho knows a perfect slopping From proteose; And ho knows when ho is creeping, How immense Is your rage, but atilt he goes For the flesh that you expose And through rents. If ho thought that yon could strike him With your fist, Or if you were up, just like him, He'd desist : For the names of lazy men Hobos written with his pan On his Jiet. THE OTHER WORLD. It lies around us like a oloud— A world wo do not sae; Yet the sweet closing of an eye May bring no there to be. Its gentle breezes fan our cheeks : Amid our worldly cares, Its gentle voioss whisper lova, And mingle with our prayers. Sweet hearts around us throb and boat, Sweet helping hands are stirred, And palpitates the veil between, With breathiu5s Almost hoard. The silence—awful, sweet, and calm— They have no power to brook; For mortal words are not for thorn To utter or partake. So thin, so soft, so swept they glide, So near to prose they seem, So fain to lull us to our, rent, And melt into our dream. And in the hush of rest they bring, 'Tie easy now to see How lovely and how swept a pass Tho hour of death may be. To close the eye, to close the ear, Wrapped in a trance of bliss, And gently dream, in loving arms To swoon to That, from this. Scarce knowing if we wake or sleep, bonrce asking where wo are— To feel all evil sink away, All sorrow and all caro. Sweet souls around us 1 watch us still, Press nearer to our side— Into our thoughts, into our prayers With gentle keepings glide. Leb Death between us be as naught— A dried and vanished stream ; • Our joy, bo the reality; Our Suffering life, the dream. THE WEST. Olt oh 1 for the West, the boundless West. Where pastures and creeds are broad, Where the breeze is a tonin that thrills the breast, !flown etrsiglrb from abs hills of God. The East is a land of dead men's bones, Laid tier on mouldering tier, And the damp malarial wind that moans • Is the breath of those dead mon near.

And there the people aro flesh and blood, Sinew and muscle and brain, And tho strong life -tide is a crimson flood Thrilling through nerve and vein.

If professional musicians would play a tuna once in a while, instead of showing how many different puz- zloe they can make out of notes, the general pubiio would bo more apt to patronize concerts. When a good man dins he leaves the world the rioher for his example; when one who had nothing but money is mustered out, he leaves a legacy of heart -burning to his rela- tives, and their lawyers divide up his other easels. People are always ready to patron- ize free shows and almost everything else that they can get for nothing ; but no one ever heard of their killing themselves with drunk at a public hy- drant.

Select the girl. Agree with the girl's father in po1• itics and the mother in religion. If you have a rival keep an eye on him ; if he is a widower keep two eyes on him. Don't swear to the girl that you have no, bad habits, It will be enough for you to say that you never heard yourself snore in your sleep. Don't put much sweet sluff on pa. per. If you do you will hear it read in after years, when your wife has some especial purpose in inflicting upon you the severest 'punishment known to a married man. Go home at a reasonable hour in the evening. Don't wait until the girl has to throw her whole .soul into a yawn that she can't Dover with both hands. A little thing like Ibat might cause a coolness at the very beginning of the game. If, on the occasion of your drsi;gall tho girl upon whom who have placed your young affections lobus like an iceberg and acts like a cold wave, take your leave early and stay away.
