HER ATTRACTIONS.


She has dazzling charms. no classic grace
Nothing. you think. to win mems hearts
about her;
Yet. looking at her sweet and gentle face,
wonder what lives would be without
heri
She has wish in the great world to shine;
For work outside a woman's sphere, no
yearning;
But the altar of homes sacred shrine
She keeps the fire Of pure affection burning
We tell our griefs into her patient ear:
She whispers 'Hopel" when ways are dark
and dreary;
The little children like to have her near,
And run into her open arms when weary.
Her step falls lightly By the sufferers bed:
Where poverty and care abound she fingers;
And many weary heart and aching head
Find gifts of healing in her tender fingers
She holds helping hand to those who fall.
Which gently guides them back to paths OF
duty;
Her kindly eyes. with kindly looks for all.
See in uncomeliest souls some hidden
beauty.
Her charity would every need embrace:
The shy and timid fear not to address her;
With loving tact she rightly fills her place,
While all who know her pray that Heaven
may bless her.
