A Ditlo Elbow Boom, i
Good friend, don't squeeze so very tight,
There's room enough for two:
Keep In your mind I nave a right
To live as well as you. '
You're rioh and strong, I poor and weak,
But think you I presume.
When only this poor boon I ask?
A little elbow room?
Tis such as you?the rioh and strong,
If yon but had the will,.
Could give the weak a lift along
And help him up the hill.'
But no?you jostle, orowd and drive;
You storm and fret and fame;
Are you the only man alive
In want'of elbow room?
But thus it is on life's ronnd path,
Self seems the God of all;
The strong will orush the weak to death,
The big devour the small.
Far better be a rioh man's hound?
A. valet, serf or groom?
That struggles 'mid the mass around,
When we've no elbow room.
Up heart, my boyl don't mind the ?hoek;
Up heart, and push alongl
Your skin will soon grow rough with
knocks,
Your limbs with labor strong.
Then there's a hand unseen to aid;
A star to light the gloom;
Up heart, my boyl nor be afraid?
Strike out for elbow room!
And when you Bee, amid tho throng,
A fellow-toiler slip,
Jost give him, as you pass along,
A bravo aud kindly grip.
Let noble deeds, though poor yon be,
Your path iu life illume;
And with true Christian charity,
Give others elbow room.
A good snggestion is like a crying
baby; it should always be carried out.

^rw8 >W^>ww<? constantly
f urniabing^rnatsKial for little romances,
?od Um bleat I? very touching. The
New York Express pays: "Last Thurs?
day, an' .?d^ertise.maht- was ppbliahtd,
calling for ballet girls for the Ohriat
maa pantomime. Over 1,000 yonng
women applied, and, as there were bat
800 wanted, 700 were compelled fb go
away disappointed. Among this 700
was Mary MoOaun and a companion,
who had oome from Hudson City,
hoping to obtain employment. Sad
and disheartened they a tar tod lor
home, and, while crossing the river,
determined to end all their troubles by
leaping Into it. At the last moment,
however, Mary's companion dtew
back, but the other plunged boldly in.
Fortunately, there were tbose near at
hand who rescued her. Barnum heard
of the adventure, Bent emissaries to
search the girls out, and now they are
both rehearsing in the hippodrome
ballet. The reason given for the rash
aot by Mary is very touohing. 'I had
rather die than starve,' she said, 'and
I had rather starve than be bad.'"
In. his sermon the other Sunday,
Mr. 'Beeoher exclaimed: "I would
rather be a suffering man than a happy
flea." For our part, wo would rather
be a happy flea, ten to one. What a
life of adventure is his; and, per?
chance, how delicious a martyrdom!
Meandering forth to quench his thirst,
in the rich, purple ohampagne-gore of
lovely woman, he finds himself serene?
ly browsing upon a field of unsunned
snow within her immaculate stocking
of fleecy silk, feeling that "if there is
an elyaium on earth it is this;" and
when oaught and daintily crushed be?
tween her dimpled fingers, he feels
not "in corporal sufferance a pang as
great as when a giant dies," but simply
dies of a rose-odor in aromatio pain;
and, as for him there is no Hades, that
is the last of him. But the "suffering
man"?catch him fooling about that
silken hose, and, as Brother Beeoher
is but too well aware, Brooklyn howls.
In England a clergyman had had the
small-pox, but was "so as to ho about,"
and invited a friend to brcukfast. His
friend oaught tho malady and commu?
nicated it to his wife, who died. There?
upon tho friend sued the parson for
inviting him to breakfast, and reco?
vered damage in ?1 and the amount of
tho wife's funeral expenses.
