The Vaices that be Gone.

An inquiry by correspondent of the Globe,
as to is authorship, calls forth the whole OF
this most touching little poem which can be
found in Poems of Rural Life in the Dorse
dialect" by William Barnes.
When evcnen shades o. trees ia hide

KEEP AMMONIA IN THE HoUsE.-No
housekeeper should be without bottle of
spirits of ammonia. for besides its medical
value. it is invaluable for household pur-
poses. 1t is nesfly as useful as soap, and
its cheapness brings 1t within reach OF all.
Put teaspoonful of ammonia to a quart Of
warm soap suds, dip in flannel cloth. and
wipe off the dust and ny specks, and see
for yourself how much labor it will save.
No scrubbing will be needful. 1t will
cleanse and brighten silver wonderfully;
to pint of suds mix a teaspoonful of
spirits. dip in your silver spoons, forks
etc, rub with brush, and polish with
chamois skins.
For washing mirrors and windows 1t is
very desirable; put few drops Of ammo
MIA on piece of paper and it will readily
take of every spot or finger mark on the
glass. 1t will take out grease spot from
every fabric; put on the ammonia nearly
clear, lay blotting paper over the place for
a few moments. A few have glass stop
per for it, as it is very evanescent and also
injurious to corks.
