1t Looks Well.
Yes 1T looks we'll to see that hon
est mechanic tpiling hard from day 70
day to support his little family, who are
.dypS ent -VpdNshim tAl0ns forsthei!
oSlkDrcad!EsN carr fOs that aittlG
household-they constitute all his
worldly wealth, and the thought ofthcir
comfort and happiness gives strength
to his arm, and energy to his efforts
Verify, he i, a c~ontented, happy man.
'Itlooks WE'LL to see that young man
devoting the yigor and strength Of bis
boyhood and youth to the sustenance
Ola widowed mother; she blcsses thu
day hat gave him birth, and angels
look down upon him with interest
while the spirit of q saintcd father shall
guard him from the snares ola corrupt
world, and safely conduct him to thu
reward Of the faithful.
1T looks WE'LL to see that fair, devo'
Ted daughter using all her energies tc
aid her brokcn-down parents as the sur
of their earthly life is about to set tor
ever, She has shared with them gold
en- days Of prosperity but now they
fed, and the stern realities of life mus
be met. She meets them with a stou'
heart, and thanks heaven for the assur
ance, 'as thy day so shall thy strength
be-
1T looks WE'LL to see those LITTLE
boys step quietly aside as the %silvcry
haired old man of three score years and
ten, comes tottering along the pave
ment. They feel a reverence for bis
rough pathway to the dark bourne, to
which lie is so fast fastening. Who
will not ~say--.Ais assu,edly looks nell.
1T looks WE'LL to see that tender,
faithful mother quietly moving about
within the sacred circle OF home.-with-
in call of helpless childhood; happier
far, in love ofthose dear ones whom
God has given her, than with the adj
miration of the gay, fashionable throng
who wait to do her reverence-happier
far, in listening to the music of their
young voices, than the bewitching notes
of the viol and harp.
1T looks WE'LL to see that gentle,
wife, faithfully performing her
part in the every day drama Of home
life--kceping in harmonious motions
Of all the complicated machinery Of
kitchen, parlor and nursery-and dar
ing to be questionable enough to love
her husband quite as well as on her
wedding-day, although many happy
married days may have rolled their
since the priests blessings fell
on her maiden ear.
: 1T looks we'll to see him who has
aiken the sacred name of husband, cv-
er kind aud affectionste to TINT trusting
wife, whom he has sworn to love and
1T looks WE'LL to c him
bend his steps homeward at the close
Of each toilsome day-estccmed this as
MS earthly sanctuary-his refuge from
he vcXatious world.
1T looks WE'LL to see friend stand
to friend-to turn a deaf ear to
lie poisonous breath Of scandal-to
,eep silence, except where words Of
'ommendation may be used, and to have
ready hand and strong arm to lift up
nd encourage a fallen brother.
1t looks WELL to see a man indepen-
.ent enough to do right under all cir
umstances, and courageous enough to
his duty, without ever stopping to
. ask--what will tile world say. Who
,ill not respond-'It looks well%
Yes,-it looks we'll to sec the citizens
f a town and county take a pride in
Importing their county paper, and do
ne everything that they a to keep 1t
Ip. 1t looks we'll to see them when
hey want a paper to read to pay the
'ditor of their county paper the sub
,cription price and read his paper.
