FACES.

---T-| n" - n. FAOESa
There are faces enough on the busy
street;
There are faces enough and to spare,
For, the faces worth while
Are the faces that smile
When they meet with sudden stare.
There are faces enough that reveal OF
wealth
And the fower that rules the day
But the faces we need
Are the faces that lead
When the weakest have gone astray.
There are faces enough of the sour sort
That have worshipped at shrines Of
pelf;
But, the faces divine
Are distilling the wine
That is free from the dregs of self.
