MOITCEIO^ iT, of Your Valued Pat Send Them To Bed Wtih A Kiss O Mothers, so weary, discouraged, Worn out with the cares of the day, You often grow cross and impatient, Complain of the noise and the play; For the day brings so many vexations, So many thing going amiss; Bnt, mothers, whateyer may vex yon, Send the children to bed with a kiss! The dear little feet wander often, Perhaps, from the pathway of right, The dear little hands find new mischief To try yon from morning till night; T>..k 1U2-1. -e *-1 J DUU blJlIlK.
