H A Missourian informed trav-
eler who inquired about his corn, that
''each stalk had nine ears on it, and
was fifteen feet high"
That's nothing to our corn" re-
piled the traveller. "Up in Illinois,
where came from, we always had nine
ears to each stalk, and a peck Of
shelled corn hanging to each tassel,
but we could never raise any field
beans with it,
"Why?"
Because the corn grew so fast that
it always pulled the beans up"

winter Coming.

I'm glad we have wood in store awhile,
Forsoon we must shut the door awhile,
AS winterly winds may roam awhile,
And scatter the whirlipg snow.
The swallows have now all hied away,
And mostof the flowers have died away,
And boughs. with their leaves all dried away
Are windbeiten to and fro.
Your Y alks in the ashtree groves are cold,
our hanks in the timber'd groves are cold,
Your sea;s in the garden coves are cold,
Where sunheat did lately glow.
No rosebud il blooming red today,
No pink f0F your breast or head to-day,
Ger hanging the garden bed to-day,
Is nodding its sweet head low
No more is the swinging lark above,
And air overclouded dark above,
So battles the suns last spark above,
That shadows no longer show.
So now let your warm cheek bloom tonight,
While flrefames heat the room to night,
Dispeling the Pickering gloom tonight,
While winds of the winter blow;

in gray silk. and stands yonder, under
a big maple tree, near my friend John
BIS house."
"Mr. Q. hobbled over the judges
side and gazed in the direction indi-
Gated, but saw only that the Judge had
been exchanging salutes for ten minutes
with an iron7gray mare, whose long
white tail, as it tapped away the flies,
had been taken by him for a white
handkerchief, waved by a lady in a
gray silk dress.
"The buttons that were subsequent

A BEAUTIFUL CUsToM-In the noun
tains of Tyrol, it is the custom of the
women and children to come out,
when it is bed time, and sing their ma
tional songs until they hear their hus-
bands, and fathers, and brothers, an
swer them from the hills on their return
home. On the shores Of the Adriatic
such custom prevails There the
wives of the fishermen come down
about sunset and sing a melody. Alter
singing the first stanza, they listen
awhile for the answering strain from
off the water, and continue to sing and
listen. till the well-known voices come
borne on the tide, telling them that
the lsved ones are most home. How
sweet to the weary fisherman as the
shadows gather around him must be
the songs of the loved ones at home,
who sing to cheer him, and how they
strengthen and tighten the bonds that
bind together these humble dwellers of
the sea. Truly it is among the lowly
in this world that we find some of the
most beautiful customs in practice.
