SUCCESS AND FA1LuRE.
BY W.T.. II. HOGAN

BY W.T.. II. HOGAN,
Two tiny rain drops
Came twlnkllng down to earth,
Filled with high endeavor
That well became theirbirth,
The end Of their ambition
Was worthy Of their zeal
To lend their help in turning
An old mills mossy wheel.
They danced along together
Adown the rushing stream,
Rejecting In the sunshine
Hues bright as Youths glad dream,
Soon came the mighty struggle,
And, in the downward sweep,
One pushed the other forward,
But missed itself the leap.
Caught In a whirllng eddy.
Down In the stream below,
The one who failed lamented
In tones of bitter woe:
milne efforts all are wasted,
And useless here lie,
UnnOtlced, unremembered,
Born but to falkland die"
Just then, released from prison
And floating down the tide
1t met Its toll-worn fellow
And flowed on side by side,
II heard your doleful murmurs,"
The victor whispered low,
"But deem your sorrow needless,
And hope to prove 1t so.
"Unaided had fallen,
But helped by you won,
And in the eye of Justice
Your part was nobly done"
30, too, my brother, though you seem to fail,
If earnestly you strive for Truth and Right,
Your aid may help some other to prevail,
And God shall crown you equal In His sight
