And not harsh or cruel word

We've had our cares ana trials such

But then we've had each others smiles
Howe'er the world should greet.
How have we lived with loving ways
So long as man and wife:
Why has not pain and discomfort
Destroyed our JOY in lifef
The truth. my friends, is this, no more;
We keep cur love aglow
And when he fires of love are bright
This world is free from woe.
In courtship days when John would come
/ always looked my best;
tried to have our home arranged
In hoaor Of my guest.
His every wish l sought 10 please,

This treatment pleased my dear good Jonn
And brought him back again
Dear John could never frown at me
For was always kind,
And kindness true will never leave

In those dc ar Gays wisely vowed
To live a wfaly life
That John might ever bless the day
When became his wife.

And John its favored guest,
That when he comes from out the world
With me for him is rest.
Kind friends may think tits endless toll
TO pass a life like this,
But now to see his joy in home
Yields rae my greatest bliss.
But who deserves a loving smile,
or kindness freely given,
Who needs the aid of loving home
To gain glimpse OF Heaven,

Tokccp our wants supplied!
Then lot US yield our sweetest smiles
Aud ue Cur husbands pride!
