MY KING.

Love Is King! When he commands,
Let all mesner things withdraw;
Only be, in all the lands,
Royal, Unrestricted, stands,
To himself perfect law!
Love is King! BY right divine,
From the Godhead pure he came;
Through his veina The iruited vine
Flows 10 eyerlivening wine,
And bis heart is iadeless fame.
Love is King! No cringfng tbrah
Sueing for wiihholden bliss;
As his own be chimeth all
That his own be cares TO call;
What If here bis crown he miss?
What though be be dispose essed
or his throne? An exile he,
Doomed to wander in unrest'
Still, above all, is he olest
In conscious royalty.
Ah! my King, mistrus'ed here,
Masked IN beggarly array!
Comes a morning. radiant clear,
When, no more wauderer,
Dawns for thee perfect day.
When the heavens shall swing their gst
To thy lordly entering;
When the people of thy state
And oil joy, on thee shall wait,
And 1 triumph 10 my King!

Care of Horses Legs.

Few mel who handle horses
give proper attention to the feet
and legs. Especially is this the
case on farms. Much time is Of
ten spent in rubbing, brushing
and smoothing the hair on the
sides and hips, but at no time are
the feet examined and properly
cared for. Now, be it known, that
the feet of horse requires more
care than the body; they require
ten times as much; for in one re
spect they are almost the entire
horse. All the grooming that
can be done won't avail any
thing if the horse is forced to
stand where the feet will be filthy.
In this case the feet will become
disordered, and then the legs will
get badly out of fix, and with bad
feet.an bad legs there is not
much else of the horse fit for any
thing Stable prisons generally
are terribly severe ON the feet
and logs of horses, and unless
these buildings can afford a dry
room where a horse can walk
around,li down,or roll over, they
are not one half so healthy to the
horse as the pasture, and should
be avoided by all good hostlers in
the conntry.

A New Way to Mend Faulty
Acoustics.

The use of wires for correcting
reverbration in interiors has been
subject to some very recent ex-
periments in the Cathedral of st.
Finn Barre, Cork, Ireland. The
nave of the cathedral is of ex-
ceeding height and very narrow.
The point whence the sound start
ed where the decks were) was at
the intersection of the nave and
transepts. The organ was in a
gallery at the west end, and or
ganist there seated had always
been able to hear more distinct
ly than the people sitting two
thirds the way down the nave.
Those sitting close to the pillars
heard with special indistinctness.
These were the conditions of the
problem. Wires were first strain
ed at the level of the triforium,
out produced no material effect.
A double course of wires was
then stretched about the piers OF
the central tower at. the height
of twelve or fifteen feet, with the
result of considerably improving
the acoustic properties of the in
terror. The wire, which may be
so minute as to he scarcely per
ceptible, breaks the soundwaves,
and thus corrects the reverbera-
tions.

Care Of House Plants.

A lady in Kansas gives her
plan of caring for house plants as.
follows: 81 live in a frame house
and last winter kept fifty pots of
different kinds of geraniums, ros-
es, fuchias, and remontant pinks,
all of which received the same
kind of treatment, and in the
spring my plants were very
healthy, and the leaves of dark
green color. Many came to me
for slips in preference to the
green house. Every two weeks
all winter l would take a hand
full of tobacco stems, and steep
them by pouring boiling wa ter
over them until it looked like
strong tea; then when it cooled
enough to bear the hand, l pour
ed it over the plants. Sometimes
the leaves would wilt for a few
moments,and then straighten out
and have that bright fresh look
they have in the summer after a
shower. Then / would weaken
the tea, a little more, and wet
the ground in the pots; and l
had no red spider nor green fly"

Treatment Of Old Strawberry
Beds.


Now that the fruit is gathered,
the question comes up in the
minds of many, what shall be
done with strawberry beds? We
do not generally recommend at
tempting to keep strawberry
beds over winter to bear the sec
ond year, but in some instances
have done SO with good success.
If we are to keep them over, we
NOW off all the leaves as closely
as possible, and then cut out
walks and weed the whole, and
it is possible that they will give
good results next year. Some
adopt a different plan, which may
occasionally work well. After
the crop is gathered, run piow
through the rows, plowing under
all the vines except a strip about
a footin width, where the rows
were originally set, and then
level off the ground and let the
plants left make runners and COW
er the space plowed. If the seas
on be very favorable and the
ground rich, this may possibly
pay, but not generally. We be-
lieve that, three cases out of four
it is better not to attempt to keep
strawberry beds over. Our own
plan ia to set a new bed every
spring, and. turn under the old
one. If the plants are set in hills
where they can be hoed and kept
free of weed, they may, and gen:
ally will do we'll for three or four
years. For small gardens, this
is a good way to grow this
fruit. 8. ~ i-rr sc

mechanic, living near Lake Supe-

box, not by the lid but by taking

Half a Victory.

1 will tell you how it was.
Jack had been told he must not
go to see certain boy called
Sam without asking his fathers
permission. Sam lived in a place
where there were a great many
boys, and Jack loved dearly to be
with them. There were many
things to play with, and every
thing, was very pleasant. One
day some of the boys said to Jack
"Come let's go down to Sans .
So Jack started with them, al
though he knew he was not doing
right. But after he had gone
some distance, his conscience
troubled him so much that he
could bear it no longer. He was
disobeying his father, and he
could not be happy. He deter
mined he would leave the bows
run home and ask his fathers per
mission, and then he could 90
with them with a light heart.
But he was ashamed to tell all
this to the boys, SO he pretended
he did not want to go any farth-
er. and said: "0h boys, l don't
care to go down there; Pm going
home" So he started back to
ask his fathers permission. This
was given, and he went off mer-
rily, almost overtaking the boys
in his haste to get there.
Now this was only half vic
tory. 1t was better than moth
ing, but it was not right good
honest victory. If little Jack
had done quite right, he
would have said at first, aBoys, II
can't go with you, until l have |
asked father..' That would have !
