A HEART PICTURE.
BY n. G. snEpPARn.

'-''N'
The gabled roof slopes down to where the droop-
ing caves hang low,
And Towering thick all summer long, the case
ment roses blow;
The gate that bbens towards the road on ancient
hinges turns,
Between two posts, on which are set pair Of
wooden urns.
Inside, like watchful sentinels, erect on either
hand,
With branching arms extended wide, row Of
naples stand,
And sifted in golden shower through all their
Iretted leaves, .a
A chequered carpet on the grass The yellow sun
light weaves.
In autumn when silence falls upon the slum-
berous yales,
And gently in low whispers breathe the soft en-
amored gales,
A wizard, working wondrous spells of magic
day by day, gr, !.
Kindles in eyary leaf a FIRE that bdrns itscll
away.
Above the porch, the pillared porch, there grows
towering vine; -i''
Aud close beneath the hanging caves the cur
tanned windows shine, raaa urtf
That look beyond the door-yard, on the roao
that passes near
TO towns who quaint, odd names have grqwr
familiar to the ear.
So close the house stands to the road that when
at close of day,
Within tue shaded porch you sit, while fades th'
light away, ul
And home the lowing cattle 60, upon the fra
graft air .0,..
The music Of the tlnkling bell sounds close be
side you there
There are tire seats, the two low seats, on eithe
side the door,
Where often she and | have sat, in the lon
years gone before;
While, clasped in mine, her slender hand Ia
nestled like a dove,
For underneath this roof dwellt one--the woma
that love!

OF her, so full of gentleness, my willing lips
would speak,
If, when compared with so much worth, mere
| words were not so weak;
But though spoke a hundred tongues,sT could
not hope to trace
The faintest thought of all the good reflected in
herface,
Such sweetness dwells about her mouth, such
kindness in her eyes,
He glancs shed warmth all roand like that of
summer skies;
The very buds whose fragrant blooms her tender
care requite,
Might borrow from her love-lit eyes all that
they need Of light
Her hand it was that nursed those pinks, those
hooded monk-9owers reared,
That fed the gorgeous hollyhocks which by the
paths appeared
When last we two, along the walks, through all
the garden strolltd,
Who're dandelions in the grass grew prodigal of
gold.
Behind the house this garden lies, the home of
bird and bee;
Its beds set round with shining box fancy |
can see;
There pansics bloom, and fox-glovcs smile, and
timid larkspurs weep,
And goudy sunfowers gently nod, and poppies
fall asleep.
To me, all .sund about this house the sunlight
seems more fair,
And swceter, mcllower, happier songs the blithc
birds warble there
Than elsewhere over all the world, whichever
way | roam
For she, the woman whom I love- calls this one
spot her home!
And 50 l drew my fair gem forth, to show it unto
From that portfolio where keep such treasures
hid from view;
And now replace it 'twixt the leaves that hold
them each apart,
Where you see itnow, my friend, must look into
my heart! NY. Ledyer.

A SUSPICIOUS MIND.-It is difficult I'd
tell who suffers most from suspicion, he
who entertains it, or he who incurs it,
,iielids i%srf iihd acquaintances. But the pain
of discovering an unworthy trait or a vile
deed in those whom VIZ have trusted, is
hardly less distressing. God has made US
social beings, and the social instinct cam
not be outraged without pain. There are
hardly any habits more unfortunate; than
that of readily taking up an evil report,
or of easily imbiIing suspicion of the
conduct or character of our fellow-men.

SILK VELVET IN KANSAS.

In the county of Franklin, Ks, about
% miles south Of Lawrence, the pioneers
OF a French colony have purchased a wide
tract of land, and are making a large e2-
pendlture of money for the purpose Of
setting up on the now wild prairie a man

the enterprise has been in the country for
two years, during which time he has stud
led the resources and advantages Of diff
f1rcnt localities, and he has chosen this
point in Kansas. The adaptation Of the
