COME AWAY!

COME AWAIT Oh, why repine when all the world is laughing out in glee And there's way to happiness prepared for you and me? Come hasten we upon the road that leads to sweet content, Where love shall rule as over-lord till all the years are spent. The time Is short, so why delay? Push forward, ere too late, And leave behind your vain desire and quest of high estate. Iris close to Mother Earth we'll find~the truest bliss of all, Where purllng rivers sing to sleep and mating song birds call. A cottage where the roses bloom may hold more happiness Than palaces that barely serve to mask a hearts distress. The greatest aren't the happiest, as gloomy records show, And furies turk about the throne to drag a monarch low. So. let's away to calm retreats, far from
 the world of strife, Where every dreamer has chance to
 make the most of life!

REPLIES. The world is full of people who arc afraid 10 think The good must be content with virtue. for they seldom enjoy the spot light. When a woman Is out of town 1t Is sign that her husband thinks he is having a good time when he isn't. If love can stand poverty 1t can stand anything. Happiness lies over the hill.
