WOMAN'S TEARS.

The fountain OF woman's tears
Lies closer to her heart than mars.
She lives by moments, he by years;
She pities where he looks askance.
First she to oct the Christian part,
Keener to feel for grief and pain;
Perchance 1t is because her heart
Is less stranger to her brain.
Howbeit-'tis womanly to weep,
And her sweet, sudden tears oft shame
Our better selves from torpid sleep
To win purer, nobler name.
Dear, tender, tear dImmed, woman eyesi
How oft your tender, plying tears
Have lifted from us, garment. wise,
The pent.up bitterness of years9
How oft your tears in some dark day,
Down dropping, sweet as scented thyme,
On our rough hearts have kissed away
The stain of some intended crime!

The Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1885-1886, 1886-04-08

Mn. REED summed up good deal OF
the common sense of the situation when
he said during the debate on the arbitra-
ton bill in the house; 1t may turn out
that this legislation may amount to but
little. 1t may turn out that it will amount
to much. Suppose we try it, when We
learn more. do more" The tenor of the
debate throughout showed that, however
the partakers in it might differ
about details. they were unit in
recognizing arbitration as the key
to the whole labor problem. Great
reforms do not mature, like fungi,
in n night. Their beginnings are often
feeble and their evolution the work of
time, As Mr. Reed suggests, it is worth
trying even a confessedly imperfect meas
ure, and see how it works. When its
faults are apparent, they can be correct.
ed Meanwhile, the friend of progress
will have the satisfaction of seeing the
United States government, by the hand
of congress. set the stamp of its approval
on arbitration as . principle. That of
itself would be great point gained,
