''Aiid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
Be it ever SO humble, there's no place like heme"
l don't mean an acquired or an adopted
home, but the home OF our birth, that de-
lightful summer patch where the tender
plants of youth were reared and watered by |
parental love and anxiety. Talk about the |
beauties OF other lands, how the gardens oil
the opulent are filled with rare flowers; they |
are nothing to compare to the plain but |

were 10 travel from Maine to Mexico, he
would find every prospect as barren to his

elastic cord of memory would still connect
his heat with his home as the gosimer
thread unites the wandering spider TO its
| web. Home is always home. The ever
| washing waves of years may dash upon the
shores OF the animal world, CARRYING some
beautiful specimens oil life back into the
dark depths OF eternity, and washing others
upon the sands OF existence 10 remain there
for season, but they cannot change the
smiling looks of home. Its features are un-

return TO that halowed spot where he sprang
up so mysteriously like mushroom 10 the
night, and he will find that everything rela-
ting 10 living has undergone change, that
old time has scattered his former compRn-
ions hither and thither as the forest leaves
are scattered by the rough WINGS OF autumn;
0 that some have gone 10 their long home; that
. others have leaped rashly among the bios
. som-covered thorn9 OF matrimony; while
o others have moved away, and others still
among the missing; that more gray and

Q ploughed across the brow of the mother, and
a a paeness has overspread tue crimson cheek
