OF our item regarding the until then

office, on Saturday last, an egg which
measures just 6 11-l6 by 81 inches, and
it was the first egg the pullet ever
laid"

that that was the omega of that pull
let's efforts as we'll a. the alpha.

LABOR.

A Western cotempary pays the
following tribute to labor; ~
"The great value Of employment
lies not in the compensation, but in
the attention it requires Of the
mind. We all are apt to be dissat-
istied with our work, we'don't like
the quality nor the amount, the
employer nor the pay. We. go re-
luctantly to our tasks, apd ,;ihpa-
tient for the sun to set On our la
bors, and we look for the time
when we shall not feel the spur OF
necessity to urge us on. We are
foolish enough to- envy the rich
who have nothing to do. They
are rather to be pitied, for "a mind
quite vacant is a mind distressed
The happiest are those who are al,
ways busy, and lose not a moment
to be devoursed by ennui or spleen.
The men who are-known in all our.
cities as roues, as gamblers, as bank
rupts, and dead beats arc pre-em-
inently lazy men, brought up to no
honest trade or calling, and sbirk-
ing work till their Incidence mas
ters all other qualities and. habits,
and then to keep up appearance,
they are driven to false pretences
To get tlade, a handicraft in ear
ly life is a resource which may be
better than a rich inheritance, for a
trade has better staying qualities
than money or lands ...

i WIFE, MISTRESS, LADY. Who
marries for love takes a wife; who
marries for fortune takes a mis-
tress; who marries for position
takes lady. You are loved by
your wife, regarded by your mis-
tress tolerated by your lady. You
have wife for yourself, q mistress
for your house and friends, a lady
for the world and society. Your
wife Will agree with you, your mis-
tress will rule you, your lady will
manage you. Your wife will take
care Of your household, your mis-
tress of your house, your lady of
appearances. If you are sick your
wife nurses you, your mistress will
visit you, your lady will inquire af
ter your health. You take walk
with your wife, ride with your
mistress, and 60 to a party with
your lady. Your wife will share
your grief, your mistress your
money. Your lady your debts
If you are dead, your wife will

SPARE THE B1RDs.-The little
painted songsters follow man and
ttend upon him. It is their mis-
sienAto clear his ground and trees
of insects, which would otherwise
destroy his fruit and grain. What
would the country be without its
BIRDS? Their innocent notes glad
den the ear, and their beautiful
forms and plumage delight the eye.
A pair of robins have been known
to consume two thousand caterpil-
lars. in one week, and what an
amount Of service to that farm was
that one weeks work! The far
mer who shoots the small birds that
confdingly surround his dwelling,
errs both in judgment and benevo-
lence. What if the songsters take
the 1.-THE of the ripened produce of
the field and garden; it is nothing
but their due. They present their
bills some months after the labor is
performed, and are fullyentitled to
their living.

Green Fields Just in Sight.

At the portals of the morning
Stood a child with dainty feet,
ALI about him golden sunshine,
Pearly dew and blossom sweet;
And with tender, dimpled fingers,
Plucked he flowers fresh and fair,
And the overhanging branches
Showed the dew drops in his halr.
Looking forward DER ,life's pathway,
Saw he broader fields of green,
Skies with snowy clouds so tleecy,
Here and there blue shreds between
And with swiftly flying footsteps,
Started he for fields more bright;
But in vain he hurried onward
They were always just in sight.
Warmer, brighter, grew the sunshine
Broader, rougher, grew the way;
But with green fields just before him,
Nothing could his footsteps stay;
So he wandered till manhood "> IS
Took the place Of childhood fair,
Then he threw aside his flowers, -
Wiped the dew drops from his hair.
Onward, onward, toiling, striving,
Helping others with his might, g.
Desired he that the blooming fields,
That are always just in sight
Lay within the cold dark riveri
Here we only wish and wait
Till the Master calls us over,
And unbars the pearly gate.
