THE POET.

Back Of his splendid song, o think Of the
songs unsung
Back of his painted dreams, tho, dream
that he never reveals,
Behind each lyri" of rapture
The songs that he cannot capture
Save for his own delight, to keep his hear
still young.
But the songs that he never can sing
children created of one glad song tell Us
what he feels
Some day they shall be uttered
When far his soul has FILTERED.
Sung by an unborn singer In new and
wonderful Spring,

Most OF the tragedies of marrid life

youthful marriages.
There should be physical and Il.

of being frowned upon. should be

Not every one should marry.
There are as many women who
should not be mothers as there are
