SELECTED BY S. A. MILLER. Amid the cares of married life,In spite of toil and business strife,If you value your sweet her so. Prove to her you dont forgetThe bond to which the seal is set;Shes of lifes sweets the sweetest yet;Tell her so. When days are dark and deeply blueShe has her troubles, same as her that your love is true,Tell her so. There was a time you thought it blissTo get the favor of one kiss;A dozen now wont come amiss,Tell her so. Your love for her is no mistake,—?You feel it, dreaming or conceal it, for her her so. Dont act, if she has passed her though to please her were a crime,If eer you loved her nows the her so. Shell return for each caressAn hundredfold of tenderness,—Hearts like hers were made to her so. You are hers and hers alone,Well you know shes all your own,Dont wait to carve it on a her so. N
