can be constructed so that they can
have the benefit Of the morning sun,
and are well ventilated, they constitute
the most perfect stables.

Mans Dual Life.
BY WILLIAM REID.

A self-enigma even TO this hour,
Man ponders on the mystery OF mind
The Genius of a universal power
That dominates oCr life OF every klnii
Thus pressing onward, with presumption
blind
Some madly dare where others stand aghast,
Or grasp the future while they look behind
To link the iectiug present with the past
And with expanding views extend mind s en-
pire vast
And yet man lives not for himself alone,
But for the world, which he both serves and
sways;
For though his spirit sits upon its throne,
His life in bondage its behest obcys,
And initiates its dark unstable ways,
In ttful passion or despOtic will,
Or midst It's vanites consumes his days,
Or one, some noble purpose to fulfil,
Makes war against its sins and serves 1t better
still.
The inner life disdains the worlds control,
And IS a world within itself unseen
Yet seeing all-fOr there the naked soul
Reigns absolute, intangible in MEN,
And in its moods, imprisoned or serene,
II permeatcs the sense Of everything
In lfe's great cOsmorama, where each scene
Reflects itself as in magic ring,
Or concentrated view Of all that change may
bring.
The conscience, monitor and judge within,
Sustains HES actions in their moral poise,
Or awes the foul I'm its bcsetting sin,
Or bids suspected innocence rejoice;
And whispering ever with its qui0kening
voice,
Approves, condemns, or leads us to discern,
Ere inclination fixes on its choice,
That virtue is a shield-whlle vice, we learn.
Prompts gu!lt-puisucd by Nemesis, implaca-
bic and stern,
Or thoughts are sacred-legions OF the mind
That fan it's flame with many Colorcd-wings,
Or soaring through creations unconnned,
Pass the dread bounds Of all created things,
TO whore Etcrnity's vast glory filings
Sublime protunGty around her flight
Until imagination pregnant brings
It's aerial ministers from realms of light
To feast the broOding soul with some newborn
delight.
And hence the poet sweeps the thrilling Tyre,
And gl0ws with inspiration IN his song,
Or wreatheS his fHncieS with immoral ire;
While ecstasy inilnmCs vital thrOng,
And bears his soul triumpnantY along
Unul IL minRlas with the stream Of time,
Where all his thoughts TO deathess fame be-
Tong,
Inwovcn with the magic of his rhyme,
As heavens glory blends with Natures forms
sublime.
The inner life we live uric ourselves
Contains "a feast OF intellectual fare,
Which, Ike library with wcli-hllcd shelves,
Presents study for the soul 10 share;
For Il crccts It's sanctuary there,
And rCvcls In It's scCrctive retreat,
Or shuts the door upon the worlds rude stare
TO hold communion with n spirit meet,
While fcnsting on sweet hopes, and memories
