THE ROAD TO ANYWHERE.
Across the places deep and dim, And places brown and bare, It reaches to the planet's rim—• The Road to Anywhere. ' Now east is east, and west is west, But north lies in between, And he is blest whose feet have prest The road that's cool and green. The road of roads for them that dare The lightest whim obey, To follow where the moose or bear Has brushed his headlong A\ay. The secrets that these tangles house Are step by step revealed, | While to the sun the grass and boughs A store of odors yield. More sweet these odors in the sun Than swim in chemists' jars; And when the fragment day is done, Night—and a shoal of stars. Oh. east is east, and west is west, But north lies full and fair ; Aid blest is he who follows free The Road to Anywhere. —Chicago Tribune.
