��AIR CASTLES.

��BY CHARLES E. CEORGE.

��Unseen ideal powers Are beautiful, rich flowers That, blossom in the heart Ami bear the fruits of Art In minds that think, an I plan, Ami strive lo reach life's van; Misfortune and ill I nek Develop hope and pluck. A purpose, plan, or prayer, Imagination tare. A faith that sees God near, —

Woodsville, N. H., Dec. 20, "82.

��Are worth a hemisphere. Ideal thought* give birth To deeds of highest worth. The boy's ideal theme Becomes the man's pet scheme. And thought, and wish, and will, A-eeud the steepest hill. But those who nev r rear On skyey arch or pier A castle, bridge, or hall, Will never build at all.
