THE ELUSIVE QUALITY. I sometimes wonder when we work and strive, What it is that we are striving for. What we can gain from grasping wealth and power, By adding lust of battle to our store. If happiness be bought in golden crowns, Or in a little cottage by the sea, Or in the help of others who are poor, • Please God, may this kind fate be sent to me. —Cousin Catherine Thomson (16), 37 Reuben Avenue, Brooklyn. Wellington
