SMILE WIENER YOU CAN

| L am sendlng some literature Hope Auntle
and all will like it. find lots of pleasure
in these lines:
! SMILE WHENE'ER YOU CAN
When things don't go to suit you.
And the world seems upside down.
Don't waste your time in fretting,
! But drive away that frown.
Since life is oft perplexing,
Ills much the better plan,
| To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whene'er you can.
OH smile whene'er you can.
OH smile whene'er you can.
When things don't go to suit you,
Oh smile whene'er you can.
Why should you dread tomorrow,
And thus despoil the day?
For when you borrow trouble
| You always have to pay.
II is good old maxim.
One which should oft be preached:
| Don't cross the bridge before you,
Until the bridge is reached"
You might be spared much signing,
II you'd ever keep in mind
| The tho't that good and evil
Are always here combined.
! There must be something wanting.
And tho you roll in wealth.
on may miss from your casket
The precious jewel, health.
| OH smile whene'er You can
On smile whene'er you can.
| When things don't go to suit you
| Oh! smile whene'er you can
And though you're strong and sturdy,
You may leave an empty purse.
And earth has many trials,
Which | considered worse.
But whether joy or sorrow
Fill up your mortal span.
Twill make your pathway brighter,
10 smile Whene'er you can,

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Guess Won

! but nevertheless 1 could not resist the TENN
tation any longer. AS most of the cousins

Tempt to discuss the following subject:
Life at Home" How little do people
think when they speak of A home as happy,
or the contrary, of the many influences and
| circumstances which combine to make it so +!
1t is more difficult to describe a happy
home than an unhappy one, because one

make 1t happy. Take the case of ungov-
