Sweet Dreamt of Mother and Home.
Copyright, 1885, by Henry J. Wehman.
ords by George Cooper.-Music by J. P. Skelly.

Life has its pleasure, and life has its pain,
Still we can never forget-
Joys of our childhood now greet us again,
Bright in our memories yet!
Oft in our visions a dear face appears,
Cheering our steps while we roam;
Oft do we treasure, in sadness and tears,
Sweet dreams of mother and home.

Chorus.
Sweet dreams of mother, in joy or in pain,
Tho' from her side now I roam;
Sweet dreams of home, I may ne'er see again,
Sweet dreams of mother and home.

Still we recall every scene of our youth,
Bright as the stars; in their glow;
Smiles that were beaming with kindness and truth,
Fonder than all that we know.
Sad was the hour when I bade her adieu-
Still her fond worjls do I hear;
Fondest of pleasures' that life ever knew,
Sweet dreams of mother, so dear.-Chorus.

Time now has faded; the cheeks once so fair,
Mother is passing away;
God bless her ever, is my fondest prayer.
Breathed unto heaven each day;
Still, while I wander, her vision appears,
Bright as the stars in yon dome;
Oft do they dim now mine eye-lids with tears,
Sweet dreams of mother and home.-Chorus.
