He laughs best who laughs last,
If the first fellow misses the smile;
For brevity is the soul of wit,
And a miss is as good as a mile.
—Columbia Spectator.
All through thy dreary after-ways Thus keep out winter's chilling blast With blessings from thy golden past; And laugh away Time's gloomy art By keeping aye thy merry heart. -Ex.
An Autumn Ruse.
Dear friend, this would I ask of you. To simply keep thy youth in view And live again its sunny days
When Summer's days were growing old;
When wintry winds came bleak and cold,
The trees put on their glowing tints
To charm away all boding hints;
And blending with their brown and green,
All Summer's richest shades were seen,
The crimson of the sunset bright,
The golden rays of morning's light;
While 'mid the grasses' brownish hue
The purple aster caught the dew,
And flaming red along the way
The brilliant sumac stood all day
And nodded oft to golden rod,
With cheery, saucy, careless nod.
And Nature's children, all were brave,
To darkening skies defiance gave,
And held the wintry storms at bay
Full many a long and happy day.
