I SAW HER IN CABBAGE TINE.

Respeettitlly LascyiJea to Mother Moore.
I saw her first in cabbage time,
She was a cutting crout-
She'd stop the cutter, now and then,
To turn her head about;
And as she'd salt it in tub.
And stamp it down awhile,
Upon her fresh AMI rosy lip
Reposed witching smile.
I saw her next in winter time,
And still she gaily smiled,
For there upon the cooking stove,
Her grub was being billed.
Around the huge and greasy pot,
The steam came pouring out;
And from the smell, knew that sho
Was cooking 'speck and krout.
When next saw her, in the spring,
She smiled NOT rs before;
A heavy weight was on her heart
The crout was sail no more"
The pot she used to cook it in
Was eaten up with rust;
The cutter hung upon the wall,
Mid spider webs AID dust.
I've seen her often since that time,
When all around were gay
When others laughed and talked the most,
She'd frown and turn away,
I've watched to see ray of joy;
But watched, alas in vain
I never hope to see her smile
Tiil-cabbage time again.

SHALL FRIENDS MEET IN HEAVEN

4 Ia Il
If yon bright stars which gem the night,
Be each blissful, dwelling sphere,
Where kindred spirits re-unite
Whom death hath torn assunder here;
How sweet it were ut once to die,
And leave this blighted orb afar,
Mix soul with soul 10 cleaye the sky,
And soar away from star to star.
But oh how dark. how drear. how lone.
Would seem the brightest world OF bliss
II wandering through each radiant one,
We failed TO find the loved of this;
IF there no more the ties shall twine,
Which deaths cold hand alone can sever,
@ then those stars in mockery shine,
More hateful, as they shine forever
It cannot be- each hope and fear
That lights the eye clouds the brow
Proclairns there is happier sphere
Than this bleak world that holds US no"
There is a voice which sorrow hears,
When heaviest weighs life's CALLING chain,
IT'S Heaven that whispers dry tEy tears,
The pure in heart shall rnoet again

During the summer Of 1916, corn being
scarce in the upper country, and one Of the
citizens being hard pressed Tor bread, having
worn thread bare the hospitality of his gener-
Gus neighbors, by his extreme iazincss, they
thought it an act Of charity 20 bury h:m. Ac-
cordingly, he was carried toward the place Of
interment, and being met by one of the citi-
zens, the following conversation took place:
..Ha!lo. what have you there go

"What are you going to do with him '''
s:Bury him.
..what is he dead hadn't heard of his
DEATH
oNo, he is not dead, but he might as well
be, for he has no corn and is too lazy to work
for any
s.That is too cruel for civilized people, I'll
give him two bushels of corn myself rather
than see him buried alive"
Mr.. s. raised the cover, and asked in his
usual dragging tone. E.I-s it s-he-l-l-e-d ~
ssNo, but You can soon shell it,
