Great Chances ql. + The blithe young year is romping on, and prophets, with their gaze afar, assure us that before it's gone we'll be much richer than we are. Great opportunities will rise, for those who'd conquer fames for dimes, such chances as no eager eyes have ever seen in bygone times. = Prospe wave will in this new crest; so let us plan and work and save, and salt down treasure in the chest. We all feel cheered by such decrees, it rids us of a load of care to know that coin will grow on trees, | and we'll be sure to get our share And it is true that every skate will have his chance to nail some snaps; but most of us will sit and wait for luck to dump things in our laps. We're banking on some fairy queen to come along with layish hand, and load us with the good long green for which we have not worked or planned. We dream of finding gold or oil down on a corner of the farm, and so we do not plow the soil, or ply the hoe with strong right arm. The seers have said the year wil bring great boons and blessings in its train, and so we gam- bol and we sing, for work is neither safe nor And when this year, grow old and frail, is dying ry skies, we'll hear ag ale—the bustlers gathered ize. This vear may offer every chance that any year has ever sprung, for you to profit and advance, and get there while you still are young; the vear may show you, as it goes, such glories as will strike you dumb; but it should find you on toes, to grab the chan s come.
