A WOMAN'S WEAPON.
"What is a woman's weapon ?"
I asked a aharming girl ;
She dropped herlaehes shyly
And stroked a vagrant curl ;
'Chen 0onsoiouely she murmured—
Thio rosebud newly out;
"I have a strong auspioion
Her weapon to a pout."
"What is a woman's weapon ?"
I asked a lover true,
He turned him to a maiden
With eyes of heavenly blue,
Her velvet lire wore parted,
All innocence of guile,
And eagerly he answered :
"Her weapon is a smile ?"
"What is a woman's weapon ?"
I asked a poet then.
With sudden inspiration
He seized upon his pen.
"Oh, 1 could write a thousand,"
He Dried in accents oleo :
"But woman's surest weapon,
I grant you is a tear."

With dragons orawling up his sides, and

An' playin' on a harp—although T neyor

An' when it strikes the half hours out,
you'd think a fairy sighed,
Or that a little mouse bad gin a faint
squeak just 'fore he died.
Tlien'it eorter stirs my aohsoiouse, when
the old clock strikes the time,
With a kind of ringing music, hi its dear

For it seems to be a goyim' in a solemn
