THE D0lLAR"

There is no sentiment about dollar.
Il rests as peacefully in the filthy pockets
OF a beggar
As it does in the silken purse OF the mil
lionaire. =,
It's a blanket that covers q multitude oil
sins.
1t brings 10Y tod ly-it's the cause OF sor-
row tomorrow.
1t never speeks-yet II talks.
1t circulates ireely-yet it keeps In hiding
It's the ruination OF millions;
1t lifts millions out Of the depths oil de-
spair.
II comes with the promise OF gladness.
1t leaves many disappointments.
We tremble at its strength.
Yet we can crush 1t with one hand.
It's always the same-yetit'seve chang
ing.
The lack OF 1t promotes industry.
The excess OF 1t causes idleness.
1t creates trouble-it brings peace.
IL makes one restful-it makes one rest
less.
1t lubricates the axle the world rev Ives
upon.
Witbal it's silent friend.
Without il we perish,
For the world let's him
Severely alone
Who has not dollar
He can call his own.
