The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1901-04-21

A happy little child asleep;
Eyes that can smile. though they may
weep
brothers. cheer, fathers praise;
The minstrelsy of summer days;
heart where anger never burns;
A gift that looks for no returns;
Wrongs overthrow, pains quick release
Dark footsteps guided into peace;
The light of love in lovers eyes;
Age that is young as well as wise;
A mothers kiss; baby's mirth-
These are the sweetest things of earth.
