LHFE,s SUNNY SPOTS.
BY wM. LEGGETT.


Though Lies dark and thorny path,
Its goal the silent tomb,
1t vet some spots of sunshine hath,
That smile enid the loom.
The Friend, who veal or wo partakes,
Unchanged, whate'er his lot.
Vino kindly soothes the heart that aches,
Is sure sunny spot.
The Wife who half our burden bears,
bnd utieTs not moan;
Whose ready hand wipes off our tears,
Unheeded ali her own;
Who treasures every kindly word,
Each harsher one forgot,
And carols bli hely as bird
She's, TOO, q sunny spot.
The child who lifts. at morn and eve.
In prayer It's ,iny voice;
Who grieyes whene'er lis parents grIeve,
And joys when they rejoice;
In whose bright eye young Genius glows.
W hose heart without a blot,
Is fresh and pure % Summers rose
That chId's sunny spot.
There's yet upon Life's weary road.
One spoi OF brighter glow,
Where sorrow half forgets lis load,
And tears no longer flow;
Friendship may wither, Love decline
Our chIld his honor blot,
But still undImmed that spot will shine

forty and makes it up by euItiyatng twice as many
acresi instead Of thirty bushels Of wheat he gets
twelve, and puts 10 enough to make il up; IN
