His benefits calamities. 
Oundatrains. : 
God sends his blessings in disguise, 
Nor can we by our wills perverse 
Change the blessing to a curse. 
Nothing so sharp and venomous appears 
As Conscience split up into spears; 
Naught so impervious and hard to yield 
As Conscience taken for a shield. 
Where. grapes in purple clusters grow 
There must me stock and root below; 
And every deed of love, I ween, 
Has root in faith although unseen. 
As for my cares I have so very few,

One may have wealth and fame yet live. unblest, 
Man’s life consisteth not in things possest.

“THE “‘MYSTERY’’ OF IT. 
Among many. foolish questions 
‘That oft’ are asked of me, 
Is, ‘‘Why did you change our Misery 
To Mystery—with a T?’’ 
I’ve answered them most kindly 
But so many, many times— 
That I’m forced to write them blindly 
In these long descriptive rhymes. 
The mysterious attractions 
Of the place itself—it seems 
Would be sufficient reason 
Without writing all these reams. 
But in transition: stages 
Of the: world—or of our lives, -

articles on a variety of subjects 
which will be printed. One topic, 
*‘The farm on the Edge of Town’’ 
will appeal to many who enjoy 
semi-rural life. Other articles of 
particular interest to real estate 
owners, investors and builders are 
—‘Growth of the Bungalow,’’ 
‘Great Increase in Number of 
Building Lot Owners,’’ ‘‘ Increasing 
Demand for. Country Estates,’’.‘‘Re- 
Put naughty sweethearts in the stocks? 
Fat flesh of friends and foes? 
Each man have twenty brace of wives? 
And rings in every nose? 
One reason is sufficient 
If no other I could give, 
Why on this sad old globe of ours 
Let Moulton’s Miseries live? 
Naumkeag witches must have smiled 
When Salem stole their name— 
Cat Island must have meowed and meowed 
When Lowell brought it fame.

How sad to live and see.
