Show Don't Look Back. In climbing up tlio trail of life, (lioueli troubles may cmburinsa you. ThotiKli clouds of disappointment may obseuio your mortal skies. Though thorns Ho hidden in the path to wound your fiet mid hniass you. And hostile winds muy blow lctardlne dust Into your ces, Keep holding on with steady nerve; if you should fnll Jmt rlso again. If you should for a moment stray, got back onto tho track; Keep praying that the coming day may bring you sunny skies again. Your eyes llx on tho beacon light and don't look back. The benoon way up yonder gleams, though clouds nt times may curtain it, Tho light of hope is Bhluing on tho summit of success. Though it may siuncllmes vanish from sour sight you may bo certain it Again will Hash Its cheery rays to banish your distress. Tho gnunt wolves of adversity from gloomy lalm may howl at ou And clinging fears your bosom may most mercilessly rack, Tho grim (lends of ulscouingement from darkened nooks may sconl at you. But hold a grip upon your nero and don't look back. When rest tho darkest clouds of llfo tho cheery sun will shine again, Tho fiercest storm will spond its forco and leave a smiling sky; Around the wlnter-fetteied oak tho flowering flow-ering vines will twine ngaln. The longest lano of woe will havo a turning by nnd by. If you should slip nnd loo somo ground, Btrivo hnrd to gain your place again. Bo not nppnlled when obstacles confront con-front lou on the truck; If wearied, stop nnd blow n bit, then striko tho same old paco again. And set you teeth nnd bulgo ahead and don't look back.
