AT THE SUPREME MOMENT.

4. e. Kiser. In Chicago Record Herald.
A man Will struggle braveIy
To gain tho worlds applause;
No danger that confronts him
May serve TO make him pause.
No task is too exacting
When hope is In his heart;
Ho turns from foolish pleasures
To play a noble part:
Strong willed. he leads in battle
He climbs the rocky height.
Or cons the printed pages
Far In the lonely night;
Through trying years he labors
To win mnnkind's regard;
No detail Is too little.
No road too rough or hard
And. having been rewarded
With all he longed To claim.
And. being widely onVied
And having deathlcss fame,
He, trembling. goes To- pieces
AS, rising from his seat.
Io makes bis first endeavor
To talk upon his feet.
