THE WOODS BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH
BROTHERS AND SONS.

HN dirty floor at a slimy bar in O the anteroom of hell I have seen them stand with a devils leer, I have heard the tales they tell
 [ have heard them brag of the brutish things, I have heard them boast of shame,
 Till l longed again for the Jewish God, for the God who smOte with flame. And l wondered much if there fingered still not dream of boyhood land, Not tender thought of a mother kiss or a touch of sisters hand. For we wander far, and the years go by, and the boyhood vision fades, Yet we are the sons of the mothers of men and brother to all the maids. And 1t Is not there in the wild alone that the souls of men forget In the house of pride, on the polished stair, where the gilded ones are met,
 I have heard the tale that is often told on the dirty bar-room floor While the idle smiled, and the lounger laughed, and the bestial asked for more.
 For the thing we are is the thing we are, not the thing in garments new;
 And the. coat that fits is the tailor's coat. but the man inside is you. 1t is such as I. it is such as you, that have made the jests and jades- Yet we are the sons of the mothers of men and brother to all the maids. Yea, the sons we are of motherhood, of a mother-love, divine, And l can not islander this mother yours-if I do I slander mine: Yea, the brothers are of a sisterhocd of the sisters loved or lone. And you can not islander the least and say that the world shall spare your own.
 For woman's name and woman's fame they are sweet. and frail. as flowers
 But the strength to shield and the arm to wield for the woman's name are ours. Let the God-made man keep his God made trust till his life's last twi- light fades For we are the sons of the mothers of men and brother to all the maids.
