I've waited 111U1 watched net hour and

And there ho stands at the tavern door.
"I've dampen my font and champed my

And this nmity post, I'Ve gnawed at it ;
Pve pawed the ground, Ivo shaken my
mane,
And neighed and snorted again and again.
"Pm tired and dusty, un1 hungry too ;

It's ten long miles we have yob to go,
And that my master must surely know,

'Oh, what makes the chimney sweep ?
And why did the codfish ball ?
And why, oh I why did the peanut stand 2
And what makes tho evontog call ?
Oh I why should the baby farm ?
And why does tho nnitton chop
Can you tell mewing makes the elderblow
Or what makes sho gingo; pop
Say, why does the terrible bed spring ?
Anil why does Rao adt1ci horse fly ?
Or what makes the pillow slip ?
And why do the soapbollers lye ?
What 'nada tho monkey wrench ?
Or why should the old mill dein
And who did the shoemaker strike? '
Or why did tho raspberry jam ?
Oh, why should a, tree bark
And what makes the wind howl
Can yon tell what makes the snow ball?
what makes a chimney foul ?

NOBODY KNOWS BUT' MOTHER.
Nobody knows of the work it takes
To keep the home touother ;
Nobody knows of the steps it takes,
Nobody knows—but mother.
Nobody listens to childish woes,
Mitch kisses only mother ;
Nobody's pained by naughty blows,
Nobody --only mother.
Nobody knows of the sleepless cares
Bestowed on baby brother ;
Nobody knot, s of the tender prayer,
Nobody—only mother.
Nobody knows uf the lessons taught
Of loving ono another
Nobody knows of the patience sought
Nubody—only mother.
Nobody knows of the anxious fears,
Less darling may not weather
The storm of life in aft r years,
Nobody lc nows—but mother.
Nobody kneels et the throne above
To thank the heavenly Father
For the sweetest gift -•a mother's love;
Nobody can—but mother.
ONE BY ONE.
Ono by one am sands aro flowing,
One by ono the mom urs fall,
Some aro miming, HOMO 11.00 going--
, Do not strive to grasp them all.
Ono by ono the duties wait thee,
Let thy obulo strecigth go to each
Let no fUSIIPO dreams elate then ;
Learn thou first what those can teach
0110 by ono (bright gifts from heaven)
,Toys are sent thee bete below ;
Take them readily, when given—
Ready, too, to Id them go. '
One by -one the griefs shall meet thee, -
Do not fear an armed band ;
One will fade, while others greet thee,
Shadows passing through the land.
Do not look at life's long sorrow,
See how small each moment's pain,
God will help thee for to -morrow —
Every day begin again.
Every hour that fleets so slowly,
Hasi its task to do or bear ;
Luminous the crown, and hely,
thou set each gem with care.
Do not liugerwith regretting,
Ov for passion's honor despond ;
Nor, the daily toil forgetting,
Look too eagerly beyond.
Hours are golden hnko, God's token,
Beaching heaven, but ono by one •
Take them, lest the chain bo broken
the the pilgrimage bo done.
