BE CONTENTED.

Life is one continued struggle; from our birth the strife extends: Though we find some peaceful moments —still the struggle never ends. Many pains and many bruises; many burning tears are shed — YVe must fight if wo want freedom: wo must toil if wo want bread. Hravoly face each situation, though it be so hard to bear — Each man has an equal porti: n—every woman has her share. If the world seems cold and cruel, don't despair nor sigh in vain; Try and smile, and look contented—you will soon be right again. Thank the Lord for all His blessing: rorce your spirits to arise: If you're always sad and gloomy very few will sympathise. Sidntss spreads in all directions, gladness spreads far quicker still, Hide away your litjlo worries, tnough it be a bitter pill. Smiles are hke the ravs of sunshine Hashing <-n a flowing stream In a thousand bright reflections—dazzing. wonderful, supremo. Try and smile on all occasions—l'vatch how easily it Mom's— You will find your lo.ul seems lighter, and you'll soon have many t'r < ti'Js.
