In watering plants, The following rules
should be observed; Use rain water, not 700
cold; it should be at least as warm as the
plant room. Water them whenever the top
OF the earth is dry, but do not keep them wet

Never apply guano TO them till they begin to
grow. When you water them, use water

There lay her lutte,

There lay her lutte,
Just as she touch'd it last, at the soft hour
OF summer twilight, when the woodbine cups
Filling with deeper fragrance, fondly press'd
Through the rais'd easement, uttermg tender
TO her who trained them. On her favorite
Still lay her work-box open, and the book
That last she read, and carelessly near its page
A note, whose cover her slight pen had trac'd
With lines unconscious, while her lover spake

Of all besides. 1t was the pleasant home
Where from her childhood she had been the

Of hope and joy.
came, and she was gone.
But this knew, for 1 remember well
Her parting look when from the altar led.
With silvery veil, but slightly swept aside,
How the young rose leaf depend on her cheek
And on her brow a solemn beauty sat,
Like one who gives solemn gift away.
And there was silence. Mid that strange
throng,
Even strangers, and the hard of heart, did draw
Their breast supprest, to see the mothers lip
Turn ghastly pale, and the tall, stately sire
Bow with a secret sorrow, as he gave
His darling to an untried guardianship,
And to far off cline. Perchance his thought
Traversed the moss-grown praries, and the
shores
Of the cold lakes-or those exchanging cliffs
And mighty mountain tops, that rose to bar
Her long reared mansion from the anxious eye
OF kindred and of friends.
Zen trifers felt
How strong and beautiful is woman's love,
That taking in his hand the joys of home
The tenderest melodies of tuneful years
Yea, and its own life also-lays them all
Meek and unblenching, on a mortars breast
Reserving nought, save that unspoken hope
Which hath its root in God.
Mock not with mirth
A scene like this-ye laughter loving ones,
Hence with the hackneyed Jest The dancers
heel,
What doth it heres
Joy serious and sublime
Such as doth nerve the energies of prayer
Should swell the bosom when maiden's hand
Fresh from its young flower gathering, girdeth
The harness which the minister of death
Alone unlooseth-and whose power doth aid
Or mar the journey of the soul to Heaven.
