Much Ado.
When you think of it, friend, the wor-
ries.
The troubles that wear YOU out
Are often the veriest trif1es.
That common sense would flout;
They write the forehead with wrinkles
They bow the shoulder with care,
Yet a little patience would show you

Just how their weight to bear.
It's somebody late to breakfast.
And the coffee growing cold;
It's a button that isn't fastened,
Or a string too tight to hold;
And time and temper are wasted,
And fun is driven away.
And all for the a. of gentleness,
The home is spoiled for a day.
And the children make a litter
OF toys upon the floor.
And Johnny forgets to wipe his feet
And Susie to shut the door:
And who, that hears o scolding,
Would deem those needless little ones
Just all the world to YOU?
It's well thai God and the angels
Know better far than we.
That our conscience and our conduct

So seldom quite agree
'Tis well that the Lord is patient,
And sees not what we are.
But what, at our best. we are fain
to be.
Unmoved by strife and jar.

OF which our bitter brew
OF sorrow and trouble is often mixed
AS weakly with much ODD
We meet the smaller worries,
That are quickly out Of sight,
With the sweep of a darkwinged an

Obscures our lives with night.
