BE A WOMAN.

on pve heard gentle mother,
As the twilight hours began,
Pleading with son on duty,
Urging him TO be man.
But unto her blue-eyed daughter,
VI Though with loves words quite as read
Points she out the other dnty-.t'
" Strive, my dear, TO be a 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 neVels
Every feeling that is humanY
If its this to be lady,
TITS not this to be n woman
Mother, then. unto your daughter,
Speak OF something higher far,
Than to be n mere fashions lady
Woman is the brightest star.
Ifye. 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 and model
OF that high and perfect beauty,
Where the mind. and soul and body,
Blend to work out life's great duty
Be woman. naught is higher
On the gilded list of famej
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
llVirtue's fair and radiant brow.
Lend thy influence to each effort
That shall rise our nature human,
Be not fashions gilded lady -
Be a brave, whole-souled, true woman.
