A GLAD WORLD.
By Wall Mason. This world's so line and dandy that life should be a grin; there’s always sunshine handy for those who'd wade therein. As cheerful as a colt is, I do my daily toil, (here always is a. poultice for every human boil, ! brood not, lest disaster of life should ruin make; there is a mustard plaster for every human aelte. If life, at any puncture, seems desolate and grim, and hope receives a puncture, then let her run on the rim; and laugh at-Old Man Sorrow, and hot your Sunday lid that tilings will run to-morrow well as they ever did. 1 have the giddy habit of giving grief a slap; if there’s a smile I nab it and paste it on my map. The little tin-horn trouble (hat drive some men insane to me. are vagrant bubbles, they're empty things and vain. And when full-grown afflictions come down in cataracts, I look on them as fictions Ilia! masquerade as facts. 1 lire them in a hurry, I bid them loop the loops; ! say to (hem, ‘‘For worry 1. do not care three whoops." For .joy’s the line 1 trade in, the goods in which I deal; it is the .-tuff 1 wade in to back my daily spiel.
