THE EVERY DAY ADVICE
CAPRICE. “Oh, dear me!” cried the April sky; Oh, dear me—oh dear me! I feel as if I was going to cry At every cloud I see.” Then tears in a sudden flood ran down Upon the world, so dusty and brown, Till everything in field and town Was wet as wet could be. “Oh, my! oh, my!” cried the April sky, As she bent above the sea, “I cannot believe that horrid face With wrinkles looks like me!” Then she laughed outright at her own frown. And green grew the world that was so brown, And all the shores and all the town Were bright as bright could‘be. * * * * It may be the height of courage to say “1 dare not,” and the height olf love to say “I will not.” * * * * A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud. —Emerson.
