Beautiful Tribute to Woman.

We have seen many beautiful tributes
to lovely women, but the following is the
finest We ever read
"Placo her among the flowers, foster

BIRTHDAY VERSES.

Twas sung Of old in hut and hall
How once king in evil hour
Hung musing DER his castle wall,
And, lost in idle dreams, let fall
Into the sea his ring of power.
Then, let him sorrow as he might,
And pledge his daughter and his throne
To who restored the jewel bright,
The broken spell would meier unite;
The grim old ocean held his own.
Those awful powers on man that wait,
On man, the beggar or the king,
To hovel bare or hall of state
A magic ring that masters fate
With each succeeding birthday bring.
Therein are set four jewels rare:
Pearl winter, summers ruby blaze,
Springs emeraled, and, than all more fair
Fallss pensive opal, doomed to bear
heart OF fire bedreamed with haze.
To him the simple spell who knows
The spirits of the ring to sway,
Fresh power with every sunrise flows,
And royal pursuivants are those
That fly his mandates 10 obey.
But he that with slackened will
Dreams Of things past or things to he,
From him the charm is slipping still,
And drops, ere he suspect the i'll,
Into the memorable sea.
