comedy juggling, altogether enough
to more than furnish a full evening
performance. BUT with this wonder
ful attraction will be given in full

My Ambition.
"I do not ask for a conspicuous part
In this old game of life;
Or crave fame and wealth in my
heart
Ju* contentment will suffice.
But this I crave, that I might bring
The light and joy and happiness
To some poor soul whose heartstring
Is torn and bleeding in distress.
And to cheer somewhere a lonely
heart,
By kind word, deed or smile;
Any way I can to help him start
On the road that is worth jyhile.
Help him who is in darkness, lost
the way,
As unguided he has trod
The sinful road that leads astray
Back to the path of God.
W. S. G. HEATH.
STRAYED: A large red mule on
January 19. Reasonable reward for
