TO-MORROW'S TANGLE
(By WALT MASON.) ''To-morrow's tangle to the winds resign, old Omar saidi, and thus in ono brief line, set forth more wisdom tliflii most poets spring "in all the years through which they live and sing. With present griefs nan fearlessly combats; be pulls their ears and kicks them in the slate; and, like a knight ill armour gone afiokl, he quite enjoys the tilting that they yield. But. haying whipped the dragons of to-day, with manner bold and debonair and gay, he feels the ardour in his breast expire; "To-morrow's dragons and chimeras dire," he mutttons low, "will seize me by the throat, .remove iny scalp andi bear away my goat." Tomorrow's dragons may be one inch tall; to-morrow's troubles may not come at ail. If you to-day have fought a goodly fight, forget your fears, and sleep in peace to-night, and when you wake the good old stm will shine; tomorrow's tangle to the winds resign.
