OUR WOMAN HEROES.

There are heroes for danger and heroes fee
And heroes there are without chevron or scar,
Whose monuments rise in no temple OF fame,3
Whose deeds neither herald nor trumpet pro-
claim.
The mothers who gave their brave sons to The
fray,
With tears for thsir slu,nber and smiles sur
the day;
The wives with their babies asleep in their
Their hearts throbbins fast at the ba.Aas
alarms.
The girl leaning shy o. Asr young lover's
breast,
One kiss, it's the last ere his soul Is It rest;
The widow who passed from the freshly turned
sod
Tocomfort the wounded, OF speed them to God.
No soldier e'er answered the call Of the drum,
But left woman weeping until he should como;
No hero e'er died in the heat Of the strife
But woman in sorrow hung over his life
Oh. brave woman heroes. your faith and you,
pride
Have urged to the conquest, have cheered
those who died;
Your prayers have Lit the rough paths Of do
feat,
Their glory blazed over the lines Of retreat.
Where carnage ran rcddest and woman was
seen.
All eyes were uplifted, as 'twere TO queen:
Now open ranks. comrades, salute her once
more,
Untitled. unchevroned, but dear as Of yore
