servants are fewer every day. nod and smile a

Morning GIOries.

They said, "don't plant them, mother,
They're so common and SO poor"
But of seeds Ihad ne other;
So l dropped them by the door.
And they soon were brightly growing
In the rich and teeming soil,
Stretching upward, upward, upward,
To reward me of my toll.
They grew all DER the easement,
And they wreath'd around the door,
All about the chamber windows,
Upward, upward evermore;
And each dawn, in glowing beauty,
Glistening with the early dew,
In the house all wreathed in splendor,
Every morning bright and new.
What if they close at mid day,
IT'S because their work is done,
And they shut their crimson petals
From the kisses of tie sun.
Teaching every day their lesson
TO my weary, painting soul,
To be faithful in well doing,
Stretching upward for the goal,
Sending out the climbing tendrils,
Trusting God for strength and power,
To support, and aid, and comfort,
In the trying day and hour.
Never spurn the thing that's common,
Nor call these home-fowers poor,
FOR each hath holy mission,
Like my glory Ger the door.
