you may eat bushel of onions and a
little parsley taken afterward will leave

it. For onions, which arc the most

SMILES.


How many smiles there might be
If people only knew
That they feel better ever time
Their faces smile anew.
How many smiles there would be
If people simply thought
Their look is fairer when they smile
Than when they're smiling not.
How many smiles there could be
If folks would only say:
Good morning, neighbor, let me give
A helping hand today"
How many smiles there will be
My friend, when you and
Have learned to practice what we wish
