Add tinge of Joy or SO;
Worries take away;
Multiply your kindly acts;
Divide your loye and say:
Can you ever reckon up,
Think not, perhaps you may,
The sum of happiness bestowed
In just one single day.-Fsrrington
The doing of the above sum each
day is none too often, it is constant prac.
tice that makes perfection in our lives
as elsewhere.
Could we recall years that have fled,
How quickly from the tongue
Would fall the kind words left unsaid
The sweet songs left unsung!
How many cares, that long ago
Dark shadows DER us cast,
Would fade like faces on the snow,
Could we recall the past.
How firmly, steadfast we'd keep
Those paths we should have trodl
How truew'ed prove to friends who sleep
Now meath the churchyard sod!
o yearsl deep marked with Folly's stains
And torn by PASSIONS blast,
How soon we'd free thee from thy chain
Could we recall the past!

Many readers of sunshine will be in
terested in the disposition made of the
homestead of the Cary sisters Alice and
Phoebe whose poems are sunshine in
themselves. Clovernook is located at
Mt. II Healthy, Ohio, and has been do
mated as place of refuge for the blind
The Misses Trader through the gen.
erosity of VIM. Proctor, who gave the
nome to them, are in position to
give much happiness to the blind.
The home is filled at present. One of
the Trader sisters is blind and can
thoroughly sympathize therefore, with
the inmates of this delightful home.
The old homestead was made famous
through the songs and poems written
by the gifted sisters, Alice and Phoebe
Cary, and will now stand as monu-
ment of "sunshine" to their memory
and that of the generous donor, VIM
Proctor.
