 dreamed of) Thus the swains in modern courtship, If the passion quickly seize them, Telephone their tender passions. If they choose they court by lightning, And by lightning pop the question; And 1t may be said, in justice, Love, too, or the passion called such, Often IS unmade as quickly, Flashes and goes out like lightning Leaving lightning's blight behind it. True love never will be played with, But shrinks at breath unholy, But if by it's kind is nourished Stays with kindred love forever. Underneath the teeming surface, Underneath the roar of business, Underneath the rush of travel, Under streets and under pavements, Run thousand veins and art'ries, Carrying water to the thousands, To the ever thirsty thousands; Buried in the soil and silence, Needing not the noisy grinding, Grinding of the wheels of pleasure, Nor the grinding wheels of traffic, Heeding not the wild confusion, Never teasing on the surface, But in silence ever bringing water lIou One uiSuauu louuoaiA' To sustain and sweetly nOurish Life above the busy surface; Or in taking up the gases, Gathering up the noxious vapors, That are charged with noisome poi Death producing germs of fever, And eject them from the system.

 There you find the natter sitting; Or the halls of leoislation,
 Or in any civil council

 Ladies fair with nimble fingers,
 Lady matters, skilled in trimming.

 When the sidewalks swarm with ladies When the afternoon is flowing,
 Flowing with a tide of beauty,
