YOUTH
Edgar A. Guest.

If had youth I'd bid the world to try me;
I'd answer every challenge to my will.
Though mountains stood in silence defy me,
I'd try to make them subject my skill.
I'd keep my dreams and follow where they led me-
I'd glory in the hazards which abound.
I'd eat the simple fare privations fed me,
And gladly make my couch upon the ground.
If had youth I'd ask odds of distance, G
Nor wish tread the known and level ways
I'd want to and master strong resistance,
And in a worth while struggle spend my days. 6
I'd seek the task which calls for full endeavor;
I'd feel the thrill of battle in my veins,
I'd bear my burden CALAMITY, and
Desert the hills walk plains
If | had youth thought of failure lurking G
Beyond tomorrow dawn should fright my soul G
Let failure strke-it still SHOULD find working
With faith that l should day reach my goal G
I'd dice with danger-aye!--a and glory in it
I'd make high stakes the purpose of my throw.
I'd risk for much, and should l fail to win it
l would not whmper the blow.
If had youth chains Of fear should bind me;
I'd brave the heights which older must shun
I'd leave the well-worn lanes of life behind me-
And seek to do what have done G
Rich prizes wait for those who do not waver
The world needs men to battle for the truth. G
calls each hour for stronger hearts and Drawer
This the for those who still have youth

PRICE OF WIVES JUMPS
FOR NATIVE AFRICANS

LONDON, April 23.-Even the price
of wives is going up.
The savages on the borders of the
Congo and Uganda fnd the II. c. L. a
sore trial. Whereas in prewar days a

heads, she now costs eight, and in the
cattle districts the price of a wife Is
eight cows instead Of four.
This information was given to the
licensed victuallers' school by Lord
Dewar in an account OF his recent
visit to central Africa.
According to him, the natives are
severely practical. They still enjoy
their "cnve" days-and go counting
with a club.
