s. In q Minute."

"John! called Mrs. Grant to hel
little boy who was playing before the
door.
"Yes ma'am," answered John, but
without looking around or pausing in
his play.
"John! Come! l want you! ~ said
Mrs. Grant, speaking more earnestly.
ayes, ma'am. In minute" re-
turned the boy, now looking around
just for an instant, but not moving
from the place where he stood,
.~"John! Come this moment!''
The boy came now, for there was Il
threat of punishment in his mothers
voice. Even as he stepped from the
road, three or four hOrsemen went by at
full gallop, their iron hoofs clashing on
the stones only a few feet from the spot
where he was playing.
ooh, didn't see them!' cried the
boy, catching his breath at the thought
of the danger he had escaped.
"Shall tell you story" said Mrs.
Grant, "Of a little boy whose instant
obedience saved him from Il dreadful
death 2"
"Oh yes, mamma, do. What little
boy was it? Did you know him:'
The boy lived in a far-of country
called Prussia, and so of course didn't
know him. 1 read the story only this
morning in a newspaper
"Tel me about it, mammal" said
John, all attention.
"Here's the paper, and I'll read it
for you." And the mother read:
GA switch-tender in Prussia was just
going to move the rail, in order to put
coming train of cars on side track
when he caught sight of his little son
playing on the rails. The engine was
in sight, and he had not moment to
spare. He might jump and save his
child; but he could not do that and
turn the switch in time and if that We're
not done, the oncoming train would
meet another train, and a terrible crash
and smash take place. The safety OF
hundreds of lives depended upon his
fidelity. What could he do? What
did he do ? sLie down! lie downv he
called, with loud, quick voice to the
child and seizing the switch, the train
passed safely on its proper track. Did
the heavy train run over the little boy
Was he killed? Was he crushed tc
pieces? No, for he did Just as his father
told him, and did it instantly. He fel
fat between the rails, and the cars wen
high over his head and when his anX
ious father sprang to the spot, there II,
was alive and well-not n hair wa

be done year by year to adorn Snd
beautify the farmers home and its sur
rOundings. y few trees set out her"

grubbed up, perhaps, and removed an

Fallen Leaves.

Leaves make good bedding, though
they are not remarkable abSorbcnts.
When turned to mould in the manure
heap, they are Invaluable for almost
any growing crop. Instead, therefore,
of letting them be blown at the winds
will, as they fall from the trees on these
autumn days, rake them together, and
deposit them in some convenient local
ity, in readiness for subsequent use. as
suggested.

Within his sober realm Of leat1ess trees |
Like some tanned reaper in his hour of ease, |
When all the fields are lying brown and
s,>,.sE hare. n
The gray barns, looking from their hazy hills
Sent down the sir q greeting to the mills
On the dull thunder Of alternate fails.
All sights were mellowed, and all sounds
The hills seemed farther and the streams
As in . dream, the distant woodn,an hewed
His winter log with many mutfied blow.
The embattled forests, erewhile, armed in
Their banners bright with every martial
Now stood, like some sad beaten host of old
sWithdrawn afar in Times remotest blue.
On slumberous wings the vulture held his
The dove scarce heard his signing mates
And like ! star, slow drowning in the light,
The village church vane seemed to pale
..-, and faint.
The sentinel cock upon the hillside crew
Crew thrice, and all was stiller than be-
silent TIL some replying warder blew
His alien horn, and then was heard no
Where, erst, the jay within the elm's tall
Made garrulous trouble round her UNI
And where the orioie hung her swaying nest,
ny every light wind like Il censer swung;
Where sang the noisy masons OF the caves,
The 1hs eEcliGg eyer Saess
An early harvest, and plenteous year,
Where every bird which charmed the ver-
Shook the sweet slumber from its wings
at morn,
And warned the reapers OF the rosy east >
All now was songiess, empty, and forlorn
Alone, from out the stubble, piped the quail,
While croaked the crow through all the
Alone the phesssnt, drumming in the vale,
Made echo to the distant cottage loom.
There was no bud, no bloom upon the bow
The spiders wove their thin shrouds night
The thistle-down, the only ghost Of flowers
Sailed slowly by-passed noiseless out of
sight.
Amid all this in this most cheerless air,
And whore the woodbine shed upon the
It's crimson leaves, AS if the year stood there,
Firing the floor with his inverted torch >
Amid all this, the centre of the scene,
The whtte-haired matron, with monoto-

Sat ike = Fate and watched the flying
She had known sorrow. He had walked
OFT supped, and broke the bitter ashen
And, IN The dead leaves, still she heard the
Ofhis black mantle trailing in the dust.
While yet her cheek was bright with sum
mer bloom
Her country summoned and she gave her
And twice, war bowed to her his sable
plume
- Re-gave the swords, to rust upon the wall.
Re-gave the swords-but not the hand that
drew,
And struck for liberty it's dying blow;
Nor him, who to his sire and country true,
Fell mid the ranks of the invading foe.
Long, but not loud, the droning wheel
went on,
Like the low nlurmur of a hive at noon;
Long, but not loud, the memory of the gone,
Breathed through her lips, a sad and trem-
ulOuS tune.
At last the thread snapped-her head
was bowed
Life dropped the dist aft through his hands
serene;
And loving neighbors snoothed her careful
shroud,
While Death and Winter closed the -Au-
