Boys RIGHTS.
By CARRIE MAY.

wonder now if any one
In this broad land has heard,
In favor of down-trodden boys
One solitary word?
We hear enough of "woman's right"
And "Rights of working men,"
OF equal rights" and nations rights.
But pray just tell us when
Bogs rights were ever spoken of?
Why we've become so used
To being snubbed by every one,
And Sighted and abused,
That when one is polite to us,
We open wide our eyes,
And stretch them in astonishment
To nearly twice their size
Boys seldom dare to ask their friends
To venture in the house;
1t don't come natural at all
To creep round like mouse.
And five should forget ourselves
And make little noise.
Then ma or auntie sure would say
"Oh my those dreadful boys"
The girls bang on the piano,
In peace, but if the boys
Attempt a tune with fife and drum;
It's stop that hOrrid noiser
THAT hOrrid noiSe" just think of it;
When sister never fails
To make a noise three times as bad
With everlasting scales
1nSulted thus, we lose no time
In beating Il retreat;
So olive go to romp and scar,
And scamper i'll the street.
No wonder that so many boys
Such wicked men become;
'Ttrere better far to let them hare
Their games and plays at home.
Perhaps that text the teacher quotes
SOmetimes-"Train up a child
Means only train the little girls,
And let the boys run wild.
But patience, and the time shall come
When we will all be men.
And when it does, l rather think
Wrongs will be riphtpd thnn

Prof Swing the executive preacher Of
Chicago did ample justice to women in his
sermon last Sunday, although he stopped
short OF female suffrage. He held that
woman has nothing to gain from politics.
She is powerful as an inspiration. "She
has not been the warrior on the great
battlefield of life, but the trumpeter to in.
spire the legions. She moved through the
age OF chivalry astrange impulse, the moving
spirit of each contest of knights and the
theme of each harpist. What was mighty
poYer in romance can be mighty power
in religion. She fills our churches,
nils our prayer-meeting rooms, she
writes powerful moral literature. she
invades all streets and byways in her er.
rands of mercy, and against the attractions
OF fashion and idleness, is almost queen of
the empire Of religion and charity.
Under the broad confessions of her rights
which the present has made, the inner
moral sense Of woman so long denied or
repressed has burst forth in new power"
