The Home Circle.

By Golden Days

THE BEST BEAUTY.

I KNOW a little fellow Whose face is fair to see, But still there's nothing pleasant About that face to me. For he's rude and cross and selfish If he cannot have his way, And he's always making trouble, I've heard his mother say.

I know a little fellow Whose face is plain to see, But that we never think of, So kind and brave is he, He carries sunshine with him, And everybody's glad To hear the cheery whistle Of the pleasant little lad.

You see, it's not the features That others judge us by, But what we do, I tell you, And what you can't deny. The plainest face has beauty, If its owner's kind and true, And that's the kind of beauty, My girl and boy, for you. —Golden Days.
