the soil. the body and soul are our themes
Rich soils, healthy bodies, pure, cultivated

to this end we recommend that every country
woman have garden that she keeps and
dresses with her own hand, or at least that
she supervises and manages.
The culture of strawberries, raspberries

her garden with flowers All the better ior

TOpE HOME AND HEAVEN

ny NHLLiR.
Those three bicst words they cheer my heart
when an is dark and sad
Three words arc they Of magic power
To make the weary glad.
When sorrow, like a Bundles a iod
Had nigh o'craowed my soul,
And prosecutions darkenod waves
Above me gan to roll.
when every star had ceased to shine
Within my coudcd sky
And all was dark as midnight gloom
When thick the black clouds lie
One little star came brightly forth,
One tiny, twiukling star.
Bright as a gem Of crystal sheen'
And shone on me, aflr.
And as gazed with fond delight,
The black clouds passed away,
The sky again was calm and bright,
A lovely summer day.
And then found, WIENER I turned
Upon the clouds mine eye,
Less bright my little Hopc-star shonc,
And darker grew he sky.
But when on her turned mine eye,
All brightly shone she on,
And swim the clouds were passed away,
Like morning dew were gone.
That little star was blessed Hope
IN ever love her well,
For nuught like her. so speedily
Can all my gloom dispel.
There is a cot more dear by fir
Than palace rich and great;
Its inmates are more dear than kings
In robes Of richest state.
Its walls arc not Of marble wrought
With precious stones inlaid
No servants tread It's spacious halls
We have no lower grade.
Yet, though humble, lowly cot,
would not from It roam
Nay, never It's a sacred spot
Ny own, my cherished home.
when thoughts Of this unholy world
And OF its dark decay
How swiftly time is speeding past,
Mans life a feetng day
When such dark thoughts come DER my soul
And Hope is growing dim
When far from home aud an IT'S joys
My heart is sad again.
A vision bright comes DER my soul
That turns me TO my stars
Though home and earthly joys be gone.
have home afar
It's to the sod and weary heart
These three blesi words are given.
Wen thank our Father for the gift
or Hope and Hoine and Heaven.
