wiz You Take a sheen

\ valued friend and an old farmer about
the time that the temperance reform was be-
ginning to exert Il healthiul influence in the
country, said to his newly hired man:
Jonathan, did not think to mention to
you when | hired you, that think of trying
to do my work this year without rum. How
much more must | give you to do without?'
Oh said Jonathan, / don't care much
about it--vou may give me what you please
Well said the farmer, | will give YOU
sheep in the fall, if you viii do without
Agreed, said Jonathan.
The oldest son then said
Father, will YOU give me sheep if will
do without rum?
Yes. Marshal, you shall have a sheep if
you will do without.
The youngest son, a STRIPPING, then said
- Father, will you give me sheep if | will
do Without p
Yes, Chandler, You shall have u sheep,
also, if you viii do without rum.
Presently Chandler speaks again
Father, hadn't you better take sheep,
too?'
This was a poser he hardly thought that
he could give up the good creature yet,
but the appeal was from source not to be
easily disregarded The result was the de-
mon was henceforth banished from the prem
ises, to the great joy and ultimate happiness
Of all concerned.

Beneath their shcltering branches lean.

Sweet wales IN drcan-like beauty hide:
Where love the air with music fills,
And calm content and peace abide:

And sent 10 seize her generous store.

The May-sun sheds an amber light
On nOw-leaved woods and lawns between
But she who with a smile more bright
Welcomed and watched the springing o green
Is in her grave
Low in her grave.
The fair white blossoms Of the wood
In groups beside the pathway stand:
But one, the gentle and the good
Who cropped them with fairer hand
Is in her grave,
Low III her grave.
Up ON the woodlands morning airs
The small birds mingled notes are funr ::
But she whose voice. more sweet than theirs.
Once babe me listen while they sung,
Is in her grave,
Low in her grave
That music of the early year
Brings tears Of anguish to my eyes:
My heart aches when the flowers appear,
For then | think Of her who lies.
Within her grave,
Low in her grave.
