Don't Believe I'm q Devil.
ny ALBERT J. HOUGH.

by ALBERT J. HOUGH.
Men don't believe in devil now,
As their fathers used to do;
They've forced the door of the broadcst creet
To let his majesty through.
There isn't print of his cloven foot,
Or fiery dart of his brow,
To be found in earth or air today;
For the world has voted it so.
But who is mixing the fatal draught
That p.lsies heart and brain.
And loads the bier Of each passing year
With ten hundred thousand slam?
Who blights the bloom Of the land to-day
With the fiery breath of hell,
If the devil isn't, and never was,
Won't somebody rise and tell :?
Who dogs the steps of the toiling saint,
And digs the pits for his feet!
Who sows the tares in the fields of time
Wherever God sows His wheat ?
The devil is voted not to be,
And of course the thing is true;
But who is dong the kind Of work
That the devil alone should do?
We are told he does not 60 about
As a roaring lion now;
But whom shall we hold responsible
For the everlasting row
To be heard in home, in church, and
To the ear,h's remotest bound,
If the devil, by a unanimous vote,
Is nowhere to hc found?
Won't somebody step to the front forthwith
And make their bow, and show.
How the frauds and crimes of a single day
Spring up? We want to know.
The devil was fairly voted out,
And Of course the devil gone;
But simple people would like to know
Who carries his business on.
