POSTAGE 'STAMPs.-An erroneous par
agraph has been going the rounds of the
press, to the effect that the government
were about to discontinue the use OF post
age stamps, and hereafter sell only
stamped envelopes. We have good author
ity for saving that such a step is not con-
teinplated for the present, at least, by the
Post Office Department. SO, those that
have stamps" need not dispose Of them

The Old LOg House.


The Old log house, the swallows nook,
With thoughtful care bestowed
The rustic bridge, the babbling brook,
The penstock BY the road
The maple trees where, every morn,
The birds sang Ger and o'erj
The golden ears Of rIpened corn
That hung beside the door.
The little window, overgrown
With honeysuckles gay,
Through which the sunbeams brightly shone
Through half the autumn day
The soft Low hum Of Wildwood bees
Among the garden fCwers;
The music of the rustling leaves
That wake the passing hours.
The porch where roses fondly Cling,
The door that opened wide
The wooden latch, tho leather string,
That always hung outside
The widespread heath and easy chair, ,
The pictures on the wall
The w6ite-haired father sitting there-
All, yes, l see them all.
The highpost-bedstead eurtsined round,
Whers mother always slept;
The old oak chest, with leather bound,
Where all my clothes were kept;
The Holy Book upon the stand,
So full of heavenly light
The pressure Of q fathers hand,
A mothers kind goodnight.
\ y \ Y = y \
Ohfhow these scenes Of former years,
That long since passed away,
In all their truthful light appear
Before my eyes to-day

will make more milk, and will not
impoverish it. Glover is unsurpass-

else it is worse than all else.
Timothy is good; is best for calves,

better-better because it contains, be-

Timothy has not, or, in a less degree.

business of the grazier should bc, TO

for winter. In winter it is needed.
Butter should be made then more

Weather Signs,

Soft-looking or delicate clouds fore
tell fine weather, with moderate or
light breezes; hard edged, oily looking
clouds, wind. A dark. gloomy blue
sky is windy; but light, bright blue
Rky indicates fair weather. General
ly the softer clouds look the less " ind
but perhaps more rain can be expect
ed and the harder more "creasy,"
rolled, tufted, or rugged, the stronger
the coming wind will prove. Also, a
bright, yellow sky at sunset pretsages
wind; a pale yellow, wet; and o
greenisb, sieklylooking color, wind
and rain. Thus, by the prevalence Of
red yellow, or other tints, the coming
weather may be foretold very nearly;
indeed IL aided by instruments, almost
exactly Small, inky looking clouds
i~oretell rain; ligbtscud clouds, driving
across heavy masses, show wind and
