1IOW YOur LAWNS.

Now is the time that lawns require
moving often, say once in eight or ten
days, in order to make the grass thicken
at the base. Repeated moving, and that
often, has the same effect of close pas
turing and every one knows our old pas
ture fields have always smooth, close,
compact turf very desirable in ornament
al grass plants. Every one knows, too,
that in good soils old pastures are gener-
ally green and fresh in the heat OF summer
when timothy meadows are all dried up.
This is partially because the roots are
more shaded and the drain upon them
more equally divided, and partly because
our pasture grasses are mostly of red-top,
blue grass and white clover Ohio Far

THE OLD MANS DREAM.
ny o. W. HOLMES.

Oh, for one hour of youthful joyl
Give me back my twentieth spring.
I'd rather laugh, bright-haired boy,
Than reign grny-haired king!
or with the wrinkled SPOTS Of age
Away with lcnrnings crown!
Fear not life's wisdom written page,
And dash its trophies down
One moment let my life-blood stream
From boyhood's fount of flame
Give me one giddy, reeling dream
OF life all love and fame!
Ny listening angel heard the prayer.
And calmly smiling said
''lf but touch thy silvered hair,
Thy hasty wish has sped"
"But is there nothing in thy track
To bid thee fondly stay.
While the swift seasons hurry back
To find the wished for day"
All, truest soul of won ankind
Without thee, what were life!
One bliss cannot leave behind
I'll take-my-p -precious--wife!
The angel took n sapphire pen,
And wrote in rainbow dew
"The man would be boy again
And be husband, tool'
And is there nothing yet unsaid
Before the change appears?
Remember all their gifts have fed
With those dissolving years"
Why. yes; for memory would recall
My fond, paternal joys.
] could not bear to leave them all
I'll my-girl-and-boys
The smiling angel dropped his pen
"Why this will never do!
The man who would be boy again,
And be father, too!'
And so laughed-the laughter woke
The household with its noise
And wrote my dream when morning broke
To please the grey haired boys!

THE INSCRIPTIONS.

On each surface there is an inscription
in Hebrew, each, according to several ac.
compished Hebraists, forming com
plete sentence, and all susceptible of being
moulded gracefully and dramatically into
one. The letters are about an inch long,
though several are longer. They seem to
be cut as clean as a die, and are very
good specimens of letter carving in stone.
The inside surface of the letters, however
are little rough, possibly caused by sand
or clay adhering, A good fac Simie i'm
preston could be taken on paper from
each by any photographer
Mr.. McCarty, of Newark, fair Hebra-
ist first translated the inscriptions, but in
order to verify his translation. Mr.. Gut
man, without signifying that they had
been rendered into English, sent them to
