THE ROADS OF HAPPINESS.

THE ROADS OF HAPPINESS.
The Roads of Happiness are not
The selfish roads Of pleasure seek
ing,
Where cheeks are flushed with haste
and hot
And none has time for kindly speak
ing.
But they're the roads where lovers
stray,
Where wives and husbands walk to-
gether
And children romp along the way
Whenever it is pleasant weather.
The Roads of Happiness are trod
BY simple folks and tender-hearted,
By gentle folks that worship God
And want to live their days un-
parted.
There kindly people stop and talk,
Regardless of the chase for money,
There. arm in arm, the grownups
walk
And every eye you see is sunny.
The Roads of Happiness are hired,
Not with the friends of royal splen-
dor,
But with the loyal friends and kind
That do the gentle deeds and ten
der,
There fame has never brought unrest
Nor glory set mems hearts to aching,
There un%abandoned is life's best
For selfish love and money making.
The Roads of Happiness are theses
That do not lead to pomp and glory,
Eut wind among the joys and woes
That make the humble toiier's
story.
The roads that oft we used to tread
In early days when first we mated,
When hearts were light and cheeks
were red,
And days were not with burdens
%freighted.
