FOR THE BOYS AND GIRLS.
The HVook.

g o, I am tired !" said the brook, complaining,
g I fain would stop little while to rest;
The clouds would weary were they always raining,
The bird, if she forever built her nest
g The stars withdraw from heaven and cease then
shining,
The sun himself drops down into the west
fam would stop, the brook kept on repining,
. And catch my breath, and be an instant blessed
g All day voice calls, Follow, dearest, follow
And toiling on, I seek to reach the goal,
Nor pause to list to yonder happy swallow,
Telling in song the secret of his SOUL"
go, foolish brook" the wind blew, in replying,
g Am not always with you on the wing?
Cease your fond mourning, cease your weary slghing
And thank your stars for such companionlng y
The sun came up across the silver dawa1ng,
And hung golden flame against the sky;
He dallied not to drink the dews Of morning,
And when the night fell; 10 the brook s0as arg
At rest at resti no more of toll unceaslng;
no watering of the roots of shrub or tree;
No boarding from the rain, nor still increasing,
To lose itself, at last, within the sea

Wool or Mutton.

Wool or Mutton.
The Live Stock Journal contains the
following:
Now that sheep are again attracting
attention, the advocates for the differ
ent breeds are waxing warm. When
either one confines himself to setting
forth the merits of particular variety,
he generally does overrate the good
points of his favorite, but when he in
stitutes comparison with view to prove
that under all circumstances parti-
cular breed is better than all others he
seems to us to go wide of the truth
We believe there are few localities in
this country, where improved stock eff
this class can he grown at all, in which
either of the better breeds in the hand
of q thorough shepherd, would not for
a series of years prove reasonable re-
minerative At the same time we en-
terrain little doubt that some varieties
would, under certain conditions Of soil,
/ climate and accessibility to markets,
prove more profitable than others.
1t seems highly probable that both
mutton and wool can be grown on the
! great central plains Of the United States
/ in open competition with the produc-
/ ton of South America, Australia or
elsewhere, and at the same time there
is no more reason to suppose that sheep
husbandry in the older States will thus
be rendered Improbable, than that the
sheep husbandry of Germany, France
or England will be superseded and be
come a thing of the past from the same
cause.
The incidental benefits of sheep-rais-
ing to general agriculture are such as
to insure the continuance of that branch
of live stock husbandry, and, as soils
are more and more heavily taxed in the
production of annual crops, the de-
mand for sheep will be more and more
imperative. The varieties to be grown
may be safely left to local conditions,
and the individual preference of each
shepherd ST farmer.

SWAFM'S

Europe by its great power and excellence in ruring
what had been considered incurabe of disease,
where the patients had been almost destroyed by Scrof
ula &C. and Prof Valentine Mott,of the New York Uni
yersity, Professors Gibson, Devices and Chapman of
thiladephia with hosts of other physicians of celeb
r1ty and emlnence, gave over their signatures,
letters recommending it, and certifying to its great
merits. 1t has been occasionally advertised during
this long period and thousands families
the United States recommend it and use it, Swaim's
Panacea is, therefore. not quack medicine The late
proprietor had a thorough medical education. The
laboratory is under the direction of physicians of edu
cation and not bottle put up that is worth it's full
value to the patient, 1t is perfectly safe for the
diseased and debtated patient, and will always
lieve where it will not cure. Pamphlets giving a
