Perfect Peace.

Throughout the tar gled ways Of life,
Re,tless, We oome and 20,
4 Aud mid cur cares and toll and strifo,
We little quiet know.
But when 10 silence, soft and sweet,
is ended life's short lease,
Gently as day the night doth meet,
We pass to pcrfeot peace.
Eyes that are closed to earthly sight,
Can pever wsko to weep,
Nor pain, nor woe, nor grief, nor blight,
Can move tSat slumber deep.
Ears that 10 every sound are stilled,
Can inevermore bo stirred,
With sorrow never can be filled,
Nor pained by cruel word.
So hearts Of duet eli griefs forsako,
They tnevcr break nor bleed,
The living hearts that throb and aoho,
Our tender pity need.
Oh restful slcep Oh calm repose!
Where all life's trials cease,
Thy silver stream forever flows
To land Of perfect peace.
Then lot us in good deeds forget
The grief that fills our eyes.
And from these days of sad regret
Shall fragrance sweet orise,
Aud sano,i6ed this life shall bo,
With pure and holy aims,
Until at last wo come to SEQ
All human needs and claims
And find 10 them our power to mako
4 The lives of others blcst,
So they with us to hope shall wake,
To sense of Joy aud rest.
And whether painless sleep is death,
Or quickened life's increase,
Its gentle touch is but the breath
That giyeth perfect peace.

been accumulated to establish their theory;
but the facts that this is tho maximum year

Of sun spots, are 10 their favor. The scinoe
