THe RIVALS IN THE STREET.

All day in the street there's tumble,
The people go hurry1ng past;
The proud and the careless and humble
At many a corner are massed,
And many man in hurry
Goes lodging the trucks and the cars,
With inclination to worry
Ger the state of affairs on the stars
Each hopes to eclipse all the rest
Who are pushing and rushing
along.
And the weak and the tinnfd are
Aside by the bold and the strong.
Ali day in the rush and the rattle
The contest continues, and neer
On the field of the bloodless battle
Were rivals more willing to dare
Than are they that go wildly pursuing
The maddening dollar all day.
Each ready to work the undoing
OF any who stands in the way
Each hoping to pass all the rest
Who are pushing and stumbling
along,
Where the weak and the tinid are
pressed
Aside by the bold and the strong.
Far away from the racket, the riot,
Two men are asleep and serene
Where only the birds break the quiet
That reigns Ger the dowery scene
But lately rivals they hurried
Where the proud and the humble con-
tend,
And each of them watched and was wor-
Lest the other should win in the end
Each hoped to OutStrip all the rest
That galloped or stumbled along
And the weak and the halt are still
Aside by the bold and the strong.
