"Yes sir," replied the other.

"Meet with an accident?"

"No, broke it trying to pat myself on the back."

"Great Scott! What for?"

"For minding my own business."

Alternctives

There two ways of being happy; we may either diminish our wants or augment our means. Either will do, the result is the same. And it is for each man to decide for himself, and do that which happens to be the easiest. If you are idle or sick or poor, however hard it may be for you to diminish your wants, it will be harder to augment your means. If you are active and prosperous or young or in good health, it may be easier for you to augment your means than to diminish your wants. But if you are wise, you will do both at the same time, young or old, rich or poor, sick or well. And if you are very wise, you will do both in such a way as to augment the general happiness of society.

-Benjamin Franklin. Noon

An old Southern planter with leanings toward atheism was discussing the matter with his equally aged Negro servant. "Sam," he asked, "do you believe in a life hereafter ?"

''Yessah, I sure duz, boss. They's a heav'n fo'folks what don' mess 'round, and fo' folks what duz, they's 'nother place jus' the opposite."

"Well, I don't know, Sam," the planter said, "but I'd like to find out. Let's make an agreement: the one who gets over first-whichever place-must come back and tell thb other what it's like."

For a moment Sam studied his master with a wrinkled brow. Then he nodded agreement.

"Yassah, !e5s-d31's all right wit' me. Provided that effen yo' dies fust, yo' comes back in the daytime, suh."

Back of the loaf is the snowy 4"r/ And back of the flour, the mill,/ And back of the mill is the wheat and the shower, And the sun, and the Father's will.

Spring

Oh, the poplars burn gold in the sheen of the sun, And the little winds whisper and sing, For a sparkle of dew As it catches the skies Is a twinkle of blue

And it matches her eyesLet the forest turn gold in the sheen of the sunIn my heart it is Spring-it is Spring !
