The heart chilled by adversely or languishng
may find consolation and peace in the thought Whicl
forms this article and which is beautifully woven int'
the harmony OF numbers by WN. C. RICHARDS:
II is not always night Though darkness reign
In gloomy silence Ger the slumbering earth,
The fastening light will bring the dawn again,
And call the gOries Of the day to birth
The sun withdTlws awhile his blessed light,
To shine again-it is not always night!
The voices Of the storm may ill the sky,
And tempest sweep the earth with angry wing
But the fierce winds in gentle murmurings die,
And freshened beauty to the world they bring:
The after-calm is sweeter and more bright; r-
Though storms arise-it is not always night
The night of Nature and the night of Storm,
Are embems both Of shadows on the heart;
Which fall and chill its currents quick and warm,
And bid the light Of peace and joy depart:
A thousand shapes hath Sorrow to alright
The soul Of man and shroud his hopes in right
Yet when the darkest, saddest hour is come,
And grim Dispair would seize his shrinking heart,
The dawn of hope breaks on the heavy gloom,
And one bv ono the shadows will depart:
As storm and darkness yield to light
Sc with the heart-it is not always night

John Farrar one of the most practical
farmers in the State, says that cabbage werms
may be destroyed in the following easy and
simple way :-"Break off large leaf from
the bottom of the cabbage, and place it on
the top, upper side down. Do this in the
evening" and in the morning you will find
nearly or quite all the worms on each cab
bage have taken up their abode on this
leaf. Take of the leaf and kill them or feed
them to the chickens, and place the leaf
back if there be any more TO CATCH -

But they loved her smiling face more
They needed not that any should tell them
how priceless is a smile. 1t was May-day
with them whenever she came among them
with smiles and bread, and it was always
May-day with her, for the smiling poor low
ed her, and crowned her queen of all the
year.
Reader, are you a ladyl Are you a
queen among the poor? Do the children
of the poor put crown on your head? Do
they make your hair CLEAN with gems, or
is it burning with diamonds that the fingers
of the poor never set there? Do the poor
children cling to your gown, and find pro-
teeting shadow in its folds?
Are your jewels the grateful hearts of the
poor! If they are, they will never loose
their lustre, but shine brighter and brighter
the longer you wear them. would rather
have one grateful tear from a famished
child 1 had fed, than all the jewels that
glisten on a queens brow. I would rather
carry light and JOY to one desolate home,
than call the kingdoms Of the world my
own,
