Be a Woman,

Oft I've heard gentle mother,
As the twilight hours began,
Pleading wi h a son, Of duty,
Urging him to be man.
But unto har blue-eyed daughter,
Though with loves words quite as ready,
Points she out this other duty,
Strive, my dear, to be lady"
What's lady? Is it something
Made of hoops, and silks, and airs,
Used to decorate the parlor,
Like the fancy rugs and chairs?
Is it one that wastes on novels
Every feeling that is human?
If It's this TO be lady,
'Tis net this to be woman.
Mother. then, unto your daughter,
Speak of something high-r, far,
Than to be mere fashions LADY
Woman" is the brighter star.
IF We, in your strong affection,
Urge your son to be true man,,
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be woman.
Yes. a woman-brightest model
Of that high and perfect beauty,
Where the mind, the soul, and body,
Blend to work ou. lies great duty
Be woman-nought is higher
On the gided list Of fame;
On the catalogue of virtue
There's no brighter, holier name.
Be a woman-on to duty,
Raise the world from all that's low,
Place high in the social heaven
Virtues fair and radiant bow;
Lend thy influence to each effort,
That shall raise our nature human;
Be not fashions gilded lady,
Be brave, Nholc-souled, true woman.

dry, meadow hay, where the Christian

been filled with the east wind. We
long for the green pastures and sweet
grass along the streams which run
among the hills; hence we wish to leap
over or crawl under, or crowd through
the bars of the old winter cow-yard of
the church, and at least get out Of that

Tippecanoe township greet the Democracy

rather sanguine in their anticipations last

decreasing there has really been handsome
