That man was once as handsome As YOU,
With the frank.at face and the happrst heart;
And they spoke OF what he was sure to do
or the hrave-soulrd way he would play his
part
In the airuggles and trials and strifes al men:
They said such thngs, AMI they thought them
Yet Won see him now with his beated face.
His unkcmpt heard and his vupinp eyes,
While his tr-mnons hrgers twinin1 trace
The game. As the ronfefte flaps or flies:
The grsy, gaunt look that at times gives rooH
To an apaihetic and awful gloom.
A sullen. cynical, shameless sneer
Has changed that sensitive mouths proud
curve;
With quick snrmise and SUNNY verve,
Are dulled and blOOdshOt, or only glow
With the greed or envy that gamblers know.
Hts BRAN once burned with high intent.
His soul was shaping nut noble ends
AMI all the dreams of his life were blpni
With love and honor. and fame and friends
And these are the heaviest stones that roll
To seal the grave OF that murdered soul.
Yes. look At him well as he reels away
With n auttered curse and y savage glare;
The outer temple Is dread decay,
The inner altar profaned and hare.
Haunted by phantoms with gibing face
Hopes cast away and ungarnered grace.
But tonight. when he reaches his squalid den
Some memory flashes acrosa his brain.
He recalls himself n man among men,
And his nerves are strung to Inten sest pain;
"Lost. O my God, all lost - he SAID.
And they find him there in the morning-dead
Do you know that woman wrought all this
A woman he loved with his whole soul,
strength,
Who gave him her red. curlrd mouth to kiss,
And called him lover. until ai length
She left him. as Samson WAS left of cid
Shorn OF his strength Well, the story 10 told
"Only woman - "Only" you sayf
DO you know the might of those little hands
DO you know they Can torture, and starvs. anS

Can scar mems souls as with burning brands
Can scatter the seeds of pestilent blight,

To give account at the end OF days.

With unapeakably stern, yet sorrowful gaze
And in judgment ask an atonement Just

THE YOUNG WIDOW.

She is modest, but not bashiul,
Free and easy, but not bold:
Like an apple. ripe and mellow.
Not too Young and not too old;
Half inviting, half repulsiye,
Now advancing. and now shy
There is mischief in her !imple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature:
She Is schOOled in all her arts,
She has taken her diploma
As the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When 20 sIgh and when to smile;
ON. maid Is sometimes charming,
But widow all the while.
Are vou sad ? How very serious
Will her handsame face become,
Are vnu angry She is wretched,
Lonely. frieniies.. fearful, dumb
Are you mirthful2 How her laughter
Silver sounding. will ring out
She can lure and catch and piay Won
AZ the angler does the trout.
