The Happy Girl.

Helen's smile is bright as sunshine,
Helen's eyes are happy-clear,
Common little cares and worries
Never seem to touch my Dear;
Helens walk is blithe and dancing.
And her voice with gladness rings,
Yet she is no pet of Fortune
She is pleased with little things.
lIelen's sympathy is welcome
AS fair weather after rain,
Griefs and troubles that are told her
Never seem as bad again;
Old folks love to have her with them,
Every child adores and clings,
Happiness spring up around her
She is pleased with little things.
WOndrous raptures come but seldom,
Ecstasy is bought with tears,
Rainbow dreams that Youth goes
seeking
Seem to vanish with the years;
Fame is often disappointing,
Riches, we are told, have wings,
So life's greatest gift, l count it:
To be pleased with little things.
ELSIE B. DANA.
