Saturday Night.
Placing llio little lints all in a row,
Ready for church on the.morrow, you know;
Wnfcjnng tho faces and little black fists,
Gct?ng thein ready and fit to bo kissed;
Putting them into clean garments and
white?
That is what mothers are doing to-night.
Spying out holes in the little warm hose,
Lajing by shoes that aro worn through the
toes
Looking o'er garments so faded and thin?
Who but a mother knows whore to begin?
Changing a button to nuiko' it look right?
That IB what mothers arc doing to-night.
Calling the little ones all around, the chair,
Hearing them lisping their soft evening
prayer,
Tolling them stories of Jesus of old,
Who loved to gather them into hia fold;
Watohlng they listen with dreamy delight?
That Is what mothers arc doing to-night.
Creeping so softly to take a last peep,
After tho little ones all are asleep,
And to know if the children ore warm;
Tucking the blankets round each little form,
Kissing cnch'littlo fico, rosy and bright?
That is what mothers arc doing to-night.
Kneeling down gently beside each white
bed,
Lowly and meekly she bows down her head,
Fraying as only a mother can pray,
"God guide and keep them from going
astray,
God held them always to strive for the bost,
And after this turmoil, God give them rest "
