One glance at this face lifts us at once out of the arms of despair.; out of the mists and shadows, away from tears ;m; repining, into the beautiful realms of hype. One cheerful 'lace in a household will keep everything bright and warm within. Envy, hat red, 'malice, selfishness, despon dency, nud a host of evil passionsy may lurk around the door, they ihuy even look Within, but they never enter and abide there the cheerful face will put them all to shame and flight. It may beaverv plain face, but .there is something in it we ieel, wc cannot exuress. and its cheerful smile sends the blood dancing through our veins for very joy. We .turn toward the sun, and its warm, genial influence refreshes and st rengthens our fainting spirits. Ah, the;e is a world of magic in the plain, cheerful tacc !

The scintillations of joyous spirits are .flashing from every feature. And what a power it has over the household, binding each heart together in tenderness and love and sympathy ! Shadows nny darken around us, but some how this face ever shines between, i A -shining is sobrightthat the -hddows cannot remain, and silent ly they creep away into the dark corners, where the cheerful face is gone. -1 It may bo a wrinkled face, but it is nil the dearer for that, and none less bright. Wc linger near it and gaze tenderly upon it and say, "God bless the happy face!' We must keep it with us as long as we can. for home will lose much ot its brightness, when the sweet face is Keduco or I3ust.'
