Remember tits darkest just ere the dawning,-
The clouds most golden first fade on the sight,
While the sun bright again beams on the morning
Respondent the more, the darker the night.
And tho dim all things darkling the distance,
There is yet FAITHS STAR still winkling the

There's some oasis offering assistance,
In deserts most bare and somb'rest of days.
And tho heavy sorrows now should surround you,
And tempests should lower in gloom over all
Keep Patience and Hope ever smiling around you,
They'll never forsaAe, whenever you'll call
And tho deceit Ger the world is wide scattered,
And the friends you trust are but few:
Forget not-others both careworn and bat

Have weathered storms that were worse, yet
proved true.
FORWARD! by no contest of Life be oerpowerd,
Go forward! where dangers doubling doubts

Like Butcher WHO seized the time to shout For

Hay ROPES FOR FRUIT TREEs.-7
The plan Of winding hay ropes
around fruit trees is getting into
favor with Eastern orchardists, as
they find that predatory insects of
various kinds hide in the hay and can
easily be destroyed by uncoling the
ropes and burning them. Caterpil>
crs OF various kinds select the inters-
tics OF the rope as places for under
going their transformations.
On the prairics, and all exposed
situations, hay ropes will be found
very serviceablo in protecting the
trunks Of fruit trees from the rays
of the sun in winter. The altcrnato
freezing and thawing caused by cold
frosty nights and warm, sunny days,
proves fatal to many thousand trees
annually on the prairies CT the West
ern States. The bark cracks and
pcels off on the sunny side and the
trees decline and die. A covering
of hay ropes or of corn stalks split
and tied perpendicularly around the
stems, will protect the bark from
the effects of sudden transitions
from cold to hot, and save the trees
from destruction. -Erchdnqe,

Contemplate Action Of Artemus Ward.

Artemus Wards droll letters in

Olympic to hear the young Ameri-
can tragedian, Mr.. Morgan Smith, in
Othello, and, occupying conspicu>
Gus seat liz the stalls, he made him
self conspicuous by audible con
tc@pt for the actor. Not content
with that, he waited in the lobby
until the audience came out, and
then in loud tone went through u
TRADE Of ridicule at Mr. Smith. The
latter gentlemen, though an African,
is gentleman, and know this much,
that had their relative positions been
changed, had Artemus Ward still his
position to make, and had Morgan
Smith already won his position, Nor
gan Smith is OF too generous nature
to have done one act, however slight,
to have injured Artemus Ward in
his struggles tor success, The color
ed actor will succeed in spite of Ar
temus Wards gratuitous hostility !;
but 1t does not make that hostility
any the less uncivil or ungencrous,

rant for success at least a chance.
