Al Twilight.

We sit by the windsw, my baby and /,
In the fading sunset light,
Watching the darkness creep over the sky,
Out of the Eastern night;
We see the stars come trembling out
In the track of the fallen sun,
And we feel the quiet. within and without,
That comes when the day is done.
What have we been doing all day, all day,
Since the rosy morning smiled!
Playing at work and working at play,
God help us mother and child;
But much fear those little hands
Have put me to shame today;
For God, who is earnest, understands
Truly our work and play.
think of kindness left undone,
That might have frightened the day;
OF duties dreamed of but never begun,
Scattered along my way;
You lie with peace in your violet eyes
You have not learned regret
For the sorrowful years that make US wise
Have not come TO my baby yet.
And still, as I sit in this twilight hour,
At the close OF q weary day,
Even sorrow and sin do not quite have power
To keep blessing away
A blessing that falls like the dew from heaven
On the parched and thirsty ground;
And in loving much. because much forgiven,
Ny deeper peace is found.
Your life, my baby is just begun,
And mine is growing old;
But we're children both Ia the eyes Of One
Whose years are all untold;
He holds us both in His loving hand,
He pardons all our sin,
And, by and-by, to the same sweet land
he will gently let us in.

PHILOSOPHICAL SOLILoQUY.-We happened
in the Office of an evening contemporary last
Saturday noon, Just after the news Of the test

blue coat and brass buttons, evidently reader Of
the venerable journal, rushed into the office IN
state of considerable excitement:

Adding force to the expression with each repe-

wiped his forehead, set down his gold-headed
cane with unmistakahle emphasis, and continued
his monologue as follows:

Fruit AND ORNAMENTAL TREES
The time for setting trees is fast approach
ing 1t has become an established fact that
certain varieties Of Fruits, particularly
when grown upon trees raised in this lati-
tude, are well adapted 70 this climate, and
yield an abundance of Fruit, superior to
most of that brought from the East.
The ELwooD Bros, of Dodgeville, have
had much experience in Fruit growing, and
have taken pains to provide themselves with
all the varieties that are adapted to this eli
mate, for which reason their trees are worth
more to those wishing to start Orchards than
trees from Eastern or Southern nurseries-
They have also good variety of Shrubbery
and Ornamental Trees, such as every person
having homestead should use for adjoining
their premises. The Sflver-Ieaf Maple, sold
by ELwooD Bros, IS one Of the most beauti-
ful Shade Trees that can adorn the yard Of
a homestead. II makes fine shade and
being less subject 10 insects, We would adj
wise every one 10 procure them for Or
u2nental Trees.
Vow is good time to visit the Dodgeville
Nurserv and select any desirable variety,
that they be transplanted in proper
season. Call and see Them

particularly low, but the piercing winds and
drifting snow made il very unpleasant for
