When Ger the western mountains the ght shad-

Sotrustng and truthful the words they utter then,
My heart goes back, and is with them simple child
again.
They are merry tro--throughou hclivc-long day
hear their happy voices in rude and noisy play
Two brothers and .ister-from iroicking and mirth
They gather when the evening falls, about cur
household hearth.
Oh, not with mans mock rcvcrcncc--nor yet in
childish fear
Do they approach the " King of kngs"-thcse
wor-hppcrs sincere
But hu-hingy and holly from out those lips fair,
l. brcahcd, in tender, earnest tones, that solemn
evening prayer.
know it reaches lcaycn-t know 'tis hcardnhovc!
Such gem must find its setting where all Is light and
love;
And bitterly it gricycs me, that in this worldwide
fold,
The hearts of these dear little ones must sclf.hly
grow cold.
They tell me lcaruins's measured by the years that
u'cr Us roll
But childhood hath wisdom int that spcaketh Of
the soul.
All perfect as it came from Him, who. blessing the
forgiven,
Said" suffer them to come to mc-such are the
jlcst of Heaven"
