ern Louisiana being about completed, l., and
In Alabama, Mississippi and Texas the early

"Coiton planting in Texas has progressed

"Winter wheat Is reported winter-ki led to

THE MEN WHO LOSE


Here's to the men who lose!
What though their work be- e'er so nobly
planned
And watched with Jealous care,
No glorious halo crowns their efforts grand /;
Contempt is failures share.
Here's to the men who lose!
II triumph's .easy smile our struggles greet,
Courage is easy then;
The king Is he who, after fierce defeat,
Can up and fight again.
Here's to the men who lose!
The ready p'audits Of a fawning world
Ring SWEET In victor's ears;
The vauquished's banners never are un-
For them there sound no cheers.
Her 'sto the men who lose!
The touchstone Of true worth is not succe g
There ts higher test
Though fate may darkly frown, onward to
press,
And bravely do ones best.
Here's to the men who lose!
1t Is The vanqu sheds praises that Is.r
And this the toast chooses;
"A bari-fought failure Is noble thing.
Here's luck to them who lose."
George II. Broadhurst.

bands companion and cannot be SO,
as society is at present constituted.
When young wife is introduced to a
new family her husband seems to be

to be seen talking to her, and if he
should exchange views with her he
would be laughed at by the whole
family"
