    From the GradI© to the Grave. Published by permission of The Nevhall & Evans Music Co., Cincim nati, 0., owners of the copyright, from whom copies of this song can be obtained,—price, 40 cents. Prom the cradle to the grave our life is but a span, When sorrow comes let it depart, forget it if you can, While roaming through this world you’ll meet with many a frown. But always keep your spirit up, ne’er let it be cast down, And should fate e’er cause you grief, or pain e’er fill your heart Try with a will to banish them you’ll find them soon depart, What little time we live all trouble try to save, And let your life be one bright dream from the cradle to the grave. Chorus.—Prom the cradle to the grave our life is but a span, When sorrow comes let it depart, forget it if you can ; What little time we live all troubles try to save, And let your life be one bright dream from the cradle to the grave. From the cradle to the grave you’ll meet with many a woe, But don’t be sad while life is yours where ever you may go. When sorrow comes to you and trials chill your heart, Look always to a brighter day, bid all of them depart, For our life is but a dream that soon will pass away, To some their life is always night, to others always day, So always cheerful be, with joy your pathway pave, You’ll then be happy all your life from the cradle to the grave. E. E. Perry, Manager, Trenton Opera House, Humboldt, Tenn., March 29th, 1889 : While driving my thorough-bred horse last Tuesday he made a misstep and severely sprained his leg. I thought I would give your liniment a trial, and did so. I have to report a very benefi¬ cial effect. The swelling and lameness have nearly disappeared and the horse -will be all right within a day or two. To Dream of ice may indicate that you are left out in the cold. To dream of conversing with a king indicates future honor; of mar¬ riage is a token of the death of some friend or relative ; of the moon denotes sudden and unexpected pleasure, .and that the dreamer is ten¬ derly adored ; of the new moon is a good omen ; that the finger nails are longer than usual is an augury of profit, the contrary indicates a loss. To dream of an oak tree is a token of riches ; of owls betokens much melancholy; that one wralks in easy or broad paths denotes health, narrow or crooked paths the contrary ; that you see pigeons is a good sign, and to see them flying foretells good new^s ; of falling into a quagmire shows difficulties and obstructions in business.
