BY paying your subscription before

OF the SIS rate for the next year,
for as many years as you wish to

The increase necessarily falls

We are putting great deal of ex-
nse into the publication of the Eve

To feel the thrill that comes to him
who sees duty done.
For who would come to happiness and
rest where children play
Must bear the trials and the pain and
heartache Of the day.

shine through bitter tears
they've wept,
The gladdest hearts are those which

And he that wears the scars of grief
yet hides them meath smile
Knows just how sweet the peace that
