THE MAN WHO IS WANTED
Tlk:' man who wins is the man who work 1 -' — The man who toils while the next man shirks ; The man who stands in his deep distress, With his head held high in the- deadly press— - - Yes', he is the man who wins. The man who wins is the man who knows The value of pain and the worth of woes— Who a lesson learns from the man who fails, And a moral finds in his mournful wails; Yes, be is the man wbo : wins.. Tnt- man who wins is the man who stays In the unsought paths and the rocky . ways And, perhaps, who lingers now and then To help some failure to rise again— Ah, he is the man who wins ! And the man who wins is the man who hears. A j Q The curse hi the envious in his ears; But who goes his way with his head held high, And passes the wrecks of the failures by— For he is the man who wins.
