POETICAL
MOTHERS WAY.

OF within our little cottage,
?; AS the shadows gently tall,
While the sunlight touches softly
One sweet face upon the wall.
Do we gather close together.
Aud in hushed and tender tone,
Ask each Others full forgiveness
For the wrong. that each has done.
Should you wonder why this custom
At the ending of the dGv,
Eve and vnice would quickly answer,
:" IL was once our mothers way J.
Ifnur home be bright and CHEEKY,
.. II it hold welcome true,
Opening wide its door Of greeting
To the many. not the few;
II we share our Fathers bounty
With the needy, day by day.
'Tis because our hearts remember
This was ever mothers way.
Sometimes. Wien our hands grow weary,
Or our task seems very lnn2;.
When our burdens look tor heavy,
And We deem the right all wrong;
Then we gain a new fresh courage,
As we rise to proudly say;
I" Let Us do our duty brayely,
This was our dear mothers way"
Thus we keep her memory precious,
While we never cease To pray
That, a, last, when iengtheniDg shadows
Mark the evening of lite's day,
they may find Us waiting calmly,
To go home our mothers way. -.
