There stands a wondrous Treasure-House,Beside a peace-enfolded sea,Wherein are riches fairer farThan pearls of Ind or Araby.

"Son, all that I have is Thine."

ALICE J. TILDEN.

I SEARCHED long hours for ease from pain,For health and strength to work again,And struggled, too, for ease of mind,A hearty joy in being kind,For love of all that's good and pure,For wealth of thoughts that aye endure,That self might be effaced in me,And all my thoughts for others be,Then quick this promise came, Divine,"All that I have, my son, is thine.
