of Paris. The whole number of species
in earth and sea can not be less thar
four or five thousand. These are of all

mouldiness, to the towering trees of Ma.

banians whose shoots cover q ~circumfer-
ence of five acres. Each of these has a
complicated system of vessels for the
circulation of its juices. Some trees have
leaves narrow and short others-as the
TALBOT of Ceylon-have leaves so large
that one of them can shelter fifteen or
twenty men. Some exuyiate their leaves
annually, as a whole robe, leaving the

HOMES FOR THE FRIENDLEss.
BY n. P. WILLIS.

When God, TO shield from cold and storm,
Gave trees to build and fire to warm,
He did not mark for each his part,
But gave to each q human heart.
Each heart is told The poor to aid
Not told as thunder makes afraid
But, by a small voice whispering there,
Find thou, for God, the sufferers share!
Oh, prompting faint, to careless view,
For work that angels well might do!
But wisely thus is taught below
Quick pity for another's woe.
The world is stored-enough for all
Is scattered wide twixt hut and hall
And those who feast or friendless roam,
Alike from God receive a home.
Each houseless one demands of thee
Can aught thou hast the poor mans be-
And Pity breathes response divine
Take what l have, from God, that's thine ?
For child, for woman's fragile form,
More harsh the cold, more wild the storm
But most they bless a shelt'ring door
Whom dark temptations urge no more.
For Homes to these we earnest pray
Each human heart may yearn to-day!
And may such shelter, kindly given,
Show the astray their door to Heaven!

with no glad sunshine, no songs Of birds,

and wept.

a child of FIVE, with passionate emphasis.
