It <6 easy to sit in the sunshine
,And talk to the men in the shade;
It is easy to float in a well-rigged “boat
An£ point out the places to wade.
It is easy to tell the toiler
How best he can carry his paok;
But no one can rate a burden’s weight
Until it has been on his back.
—Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Bright and gay,
For tho face that’s Just below It,
And I care not if you know it
