Woman.

No orb that illumines tho air,
Nor being that graces the earth,
Can with beauty of woman compare,
Or equal her grandeur and worth.
She sits all alone in her bower,
Content with her limited sphere;
Psrfuming each swift feeting hour,
With the music that all love to hear.
All around her look on with surprise,
As she moves through the circles of life;
One glance from her beautiful eyes,
Is enough to make ALL want wife.
Old bachelors too, in their prime,
Put on boil't shirt and look spruce;
And then set up grins that would chime
With the exquisite smiles of goose.

A minute later. Drake was driving

Barstone was too much frightened to
laugh. Meanwhile, the gratifed Colonel
was rolling on the ground convulsed with
mirth, and old Roam was standing undis-

When Drake reached home, his two

Old Drake's head fell upon his breast.
He felt for his empty pocket book, and
