A PLEA FOR EGGS.

Be gentle to the new laid egg,
For eggs are brittle things
They cannot fy until they re hatch'd,
And have pair of wings.
II once you break the tender shell,
The wrong you can't redress;
The yok and white will all run out,
And make dreadful mess"
T is but a little while at beet,
That hens have power to lay;
Tomorrow, eggs may added be,
That were quite fresh to.dy.
Oh let the touch be light
That takes tlem from the keg;
There is no haLi whose cunning skill
Can mend a broken egg
Az, touch it with tender touch,
For, till the egg is billed,
Who knows but that unwitrnrlv,
1t may be mashed and spilled?
The summer breeze hat gaiust it blows,
Ought TO be stII'd aud hushed
For eggs, like youthful purity,
Are awful then they re sqush'd.

p0ttrg,
TWO WOMEN.

Kate sat folding her yellow HAIR,
Where the summer winds sSept by,
While Blanche tossed ont her ebon locks
With many blush and sigh.
For both were fair, and the world was wide,
Where they sought to reap and win
A harvest of joys, with golden sheaves,
With many heart within.
Kate like a queen, would conquer and reign,
With kingdom OF men at her feet;
But Blanche like lily would bend and sway,
Where the waters of love should meet.
And each had the wish her thought had made,
But their paths we've wide apart,
For one ruled q host OF tools at her back,
And the Other luled only-a heat.
And Time. the toiler went fitting by,
Found Blanche as bright and fair
As in the avs Of the simmer winds
That waved Hates yellow har.
But the yellow hair was thin and gray.
And the heart Of Kate grown old
For the heart Of women must love or lie,
Aud they never thrive on gold.
