TWO HARvESTS.

set nv rrow In the good old earth,
And turned the burrows over,
An ut length got nv laboris worth
In the reat red z obes of clover;
For sun befriended and rains descended
And got. thrice told, my lAoor's worth
In the globes OF bright red clover.
i learned to whet and swing the scythe,
A the fields grew ripe for moving.
And heard the while, al gay and blithe,
And winds Of the harvest blowing
Their tunes 20 blithe to the time Of the scythe,
As II In the having, they hid for the playing
The pipes We moved in the moving.
And when the large suns slautsd down
Across nay close sborn meadows,
And saw my children, tanned 30 brown,
Come chasing with their sh adows-
tn ere at the even, like sheaves from heaven,
With love for girdie and love for crown,
bore them home from the meadow.
And when with the sunshine bright on their
heads,
And their hearts a. light as q feather,
We tucked them mp in their trundle-beds,
i and their mother together,
Mile the moon in splendor, looked down 90
tender,
We thanked the love Of the Father above
WHO gave us two harvests together.

The Ideal of Christ.s Person.

The Christ of painters is blue-eyed and golden
haired, and such q one never existed save in
their imaginations. A blonde in the race of
Syrian Jews Is unknown. He was Lrun (since
we have no word in our language which de-
scribes man with dark hair and eyes aud olive
complexiOn) Of that race. There are pious PEG.
pie who have recourse to a miracle to make him
blonde, with whom it is useless to argue.
Generally the stOutest defenders Of his divinity
believe that in taking on himself mans nature
he subjected himself to the laws which govern
Ii, and that he thus inherited the characteristics
of the race from which he sprung. Leonardo,
Guido, Raphael and other masters created
their Christ regardless Of historical require
ments, and invested him with an ideal char
acter which he never possessed according
to their ideas Of the beautiful IN art.
This model, once imposed, has since been per-
setuated by all painters, because they think
blue eyes more spiritual than dark. and golden
hair more godlike than black. They had an
idea, too, that the jewish type Of face was igno-
BILE, which may have had some Foundation from
the degradation to which the race was forced
for SO many centuries by persecating Christians,
and they thus had their prejudices against in
vesting the Saviour with the traits Of people
whom they despised. But the jew Of Syria, In
the day OF Jesus, was, before his persecution
and consequent debasement, perhaps the equal
Of the man Of any other race In point OF natu-
raj advantage. There are Syrian Jews nov, In
isolated hahitations In Palestine, who are re-
variable for their handsome traits.-Alberl
Rhodes, in Appleton's Journal.

In the shanty which, in California's early
days, did the duty as Office for the banking,
postal and express business Of Wells, Fargo s.
Co., In Marysville, there sat, one Saturday
evening, misanthr0pic and detected looking
individual, whose long and unkempt hair and
beard, cowhide boots and rough dress, bespoke
the miner. For over an hour he sat there. the
picture OF despair, with not a word or look
for any one present. Miners came, left their
"dust," took their coin in return, and ex-
changed greeting with all present, save the one
morose man, whose apathy nothing, 1t seemed,
could disturb. Finally, there entered young
miner with besming face, who, after complet-
ing his business at the counter, turned to the
agent in charge and remarked that on the pre-
vious Saturday he had some dealings with the
bank, and thought that some mistake had been
made In his account.
"Guess not" said the agent. "Our cash was
straight"
But upon the request of the miner that the
account should be examined, the account was
looked at, and it was found that, through a
clerical error, the miner had been paid just $50
too much.
"Thats just what make t." said the latter,
"and here's your money" with this he threw
down the gold, and received the thanks of the
agent.
While this conversation was in progress, the
misanthr0pic miner had preserved his look of
utter indifference; but, when he saw the money
actually returned, his face frightened up, he
rose slowly, walked toward the honest miner
with slow and solemn step, and said:
