LOVES ABODE.
For Tho Post.

For The Post
A coy little home and hearth,
Where laughing loved ones gather
round
Where loving words and happy sniles
On ev'ry rosy lip are found;
This. l should say, is loves abode;
And fraught with happiness for men,
That draws them. when they wander far,
Back to their own dear homes again.
They long for their dear wives again;
Aye, long to clasp them dn their arms:
And children's laughing voices. too,
For parent hearts hold wondrous
charms.
The father takes his little babe,
His lain wee BARN." his hearts de-
light,
And merry are the romps they have
Till baby lips must lisp goodnight"
A happy, joyous party this,
When all the family around.
You gaze deep in the loving eyes.
'Tis there loves true abode is found.
1t does not take a palace grand,
For love from wealth full oft departs
And loves abode Is only found
In cheerful, loving, happy hearts.

Think III Over.

Before you undertake a scheme,
Just think 1t over.
1t doesn't pay TO sit and dream,
But think it over
It ISN'T wise TO be too rash,
1t never pays to be TOO brash.
Sometimes 1t costs in actual cash.
So think 1t over
II you are going TO propose,
Just think It over.
It's hard to hold back, goodness knows
But think Il over.
You may have funds enough for two,
But seven or eight mgy come TO you
And il they should, what would you do?
So think X over.
In fact whatever comes along,
Just think II over.
That is the burden OF this song
Just think 1t over,
Don't be afraid you'll miss the train,
BY sitting down to work your brain,
The chances are that you will gain
So think it over
