SIX Little Feet ON the Fender.

In my heart there liveth picture, 5
OF kitchen rude and old,
Where the freight tripped DER the rafters,
And Redeemed The roofs brown mould;
Gliding the steam from the kettle, =
-.i That hummed on the foot-worn hearth,
Throughout all the livelong evening,
Its measures of drowsy mirth.
Because of the three slight shadows ..
That frescoed that rude, old room, .
Because of the voices echoed,
\. Up mid the rafters gloom, s-t
Because Of the feet on the fender
Six restless, little feet. ..-....
The thoughts of that dear old kitchen,
Is to me so fresh and sweet.
When the first dash on the window,
Told OF the coming rain, H
o! where are the fair young faces,
That crowded against the pane?
While bits of fire-light stealing,
2 Their dimpled cheeks between, rrr
Went struggling out in the darkness,
In shreds of silver sheen.
Two of the feet grew weary,
One dreary, dismal day,
And we tied them with snow-white ribbons,
Leaving him there by the way;
There was fresh clay on the fender, IS
That weary, wintry night,
For the four little feet had tracked il,
From his grave Oh the brown hill's height.
o! why on this darksome evening,
This evening Of rain and sleet,
Rest my feet all alone on the hearthstone?
o! where are those other .feet2
Are they treading the pathway of virtue,
That bring us together above?
Or have they made steps that would dampen
A sisters tireless love? 81. -s, E. :

WHERE THE PLASTER Was.

WHERE THE PLASTER WAs.-A
certain doctor (rather a modest
young man by the way was recen.
tly called in TO see a lady who had
been taken suddenly ill. The doc
tor found the application of mus
tard plaster necessary, and accordin.
ely went to work and made one, and
laid it carefully by to prepare the
lady for its application. Every
thing was ready, and the doctor
sought the plaster; but strange to
say, it had disappeared. The doctor
and the negro nurse searched high
and low. in every probable place, for
the missing plaster, but in vain; it
was gone, no one could tell where.
The nurse had not seen it since the
doctor laid it on q chair. There
was no other alternative but to 90 to
work and make another, which was
accordingly done. But still the
question would present itself to all,
what had become of that plaster
The circumstance Of its having been
spirited away began to tell unfayora-
bly, on the sick lady's nervous
sensibility; but the doctor could not
help it; he could not explain the
mystery. The doctor in a deep
brown study prepared to leave, and
stood up before the fire to warm
himself before encountering the cold
without. Through the force of a
vulgar habit, he parted his coat tails
behind, when nurse, displaying about
four inches of ivory, said:
q foun d9.plaster massa doctor, ,
'Where:?' eagerly asked the doc
tor, kwhere is it?'
.tYou got it ahind,' said the nurse,
still grinning. a

too prevalent careiessness on this subject here
