The Wooden Axe Handle

Why has the axe a wooden handle? As a matter of fact it would cost much less to equip an axe with a handle of various other materials-steel tubing, for instance. But these .other materials, lacking the resilency of lyood, cannot absorb shock as wood does. The shock$woulzd be transmitted to the hands. The wearing qualities\frength, and shock absorbing qualities of wood, make it- the perfect handle.

A TROUBADOUR'S PRAYER

Sweetheart, our life's a-wing, And youth's the time for mating. Where were the nests of spring, If birds were all for waiting?

Old age may chide the kiss

That found your moon-lit shoulder; But youth must seize its bliss, And age "o*.s-*1fn we're older.

If love be a dreaqr t16t aies, Let day be far kry'{n breaking ! Cherish the faithful lies

That seal our eyes from waking. If all our heaven depart, With dreams that are but seeming, Then, let us dream, sweetheart, Till death, and die in dreaming.

-Alfred

Noyes. THE MAIN SCHEDULE

Time comes winging, whispering: "What about the years? What about the darkness as the coming sunset nears?" To which f have one answer, when all I have to say Is-"Never mind about the years-what about today?"

Time comes winging, whisperin3": "IIow the years go by! What about the twilight whey'the shadows hide the sky?" Yes, the mists are gatheriryf! Time is on the way, But never mind abou\th/years-what about today?

Time comes winging, Vhispering: "The frost is in your hair;

The heavy mists are closing in where shadows only fare." Who bothers with the distant drum, or winds along the chart

If winter snows be on his head when spring is in his heart?"
