AN OLD FASHIONED WOMAN.

NO clever brilliant thinker, she.
With college record and degree;
She has not known the paths of fame
The world has never heard her nome.
she walks in old, long-trodden ways.
The valleys of the yesterdays.
Home is her kingdom. love is her
dover
she seeks no other wand Of power
TO make home sweet, bring heaven
near.
To win II smile and wipe tear
And do her duty day by day
In her own quiet place and way.
Around her childish hearts are twined
AS round some reverend saint on
shrlned,
And following hers the childish feet
