We may pluck the blooms about us or may choose the thorns instead, 55’e may hoed or may neglect the leader’s call; 55’e may choose the narrow pathway or the* broader road ahead— Life is simply what we make it, after all. 55’e may help a weakened brother who is struggling with his load, 55’e may clioer him on his long and wearied way : We may spurn him and neglect him as we pass him on the road, Or relieve his deep distresses every day. 55’e may see our name emblazoned on the honour roll of fame, And courageously may rise from every fall; 55’e’rc.' a winner or a loser as we daily nlay the game — Life is simply what we make it. after all — “Los Angeles Express.” SOME REASONS FOR THE NAME “PICCADILLY.” The origin of tho word “Piccadilly” will new'r bo settled, says the “Lady” Tho street was named after Piccadilly Hall, a plac-e of amu-oment at its town ; end.
