WEEDS AND SEEDS.

I had garden and q little child,
And IN them both there grew so many weeds,
So very rank and tall they grew, and wild,
saw no space to plant the goodly seeds.
And many hours I spent in weary toll
Mid burning suns and atorms of childish tears,
To root the weed from out my gardens soil,
Which to the tiller's eye so vile appears:
Vet day by day my care seemed all for naught;
In spite of all my toll still grew the weeds;
And the free soil for which my hand had sought
Nowhere I found, to plant the goodly seeds.
A kindly nejghbor saw me DER the wall.
And asked me why L toiled so long for naugbt;
''For thus " he said, "thou wilt not werk their
fall,
Nor gain the end for which thou lorg hast
wrought.
''Put in thy pillow, then plant the clover seeds,
And mark me i'll spesk thee not the truth
The seeds will grow and choke the hateful weeds
To which thy tirelcss hand hath shown no ruth
All, kindly neighbor DER the garaen wall,
Thou'st taught me what lad much need to
know,-

But haste with liberal hand my seed to SOW.

No longer now to rudely pull the weeds;
With Gods own truth plowed the fruitless wild
In faith and love I thickly SOW ed the seeds.
And now my garden yields me fragrance sweet
From laden boughs pluck the golden fruit;
My sickle now may find harvest meet,
Where scattering weeds find scarcely space fol

well Known that the most superficial stu

JAMES LICK, when he was sick, re-
pented Of his sins--deeded his land in
trust for good purposes, and prepared
for the next world. He has since re-
covered, and concluded that his relatives
had claims on hm also, that he could
invest the money better than trustees
could for the same worthy objects. He
has signed revocation Of his former
deed, bnt She trustees refuse to yield
possession. It seems likely, therefore
that he will spend considerable time and
money, lose his reputation for benevo-
lence, and possibly may not get his
property nfter all. We believe, he
made provision in MS deed SO that he
will always have an ample income, how

correspondent Of the Scientific

oil painting that is injured by dust
and PARTICLES of wrapping paper ?
1t is replied:-We can recommend
the following: Take the picture out
Of frame, lay coarse towel over it
for ten OF fourteen days; keep it
continually wet until it has drawn
out all the filthiness from the pic
ture; pass some linseed oil which has
been long time seasoning over it,
in the sunlight, TO purify it, and the
picture will become as lively on the
surface as new.

PLuCKED.-Home Building and Loan
Association No. l., of Cincinnati, has
been plucked. 1t seems the President
Russell, is $4,000 short, A stormy
meeting of the shareholders took place
Friday evening last week and the scene
was exciting. The Enquirer says;
"Confusion reigned supreme, and amid
it all man named Davis made the well
kin ring by charging that Hon. s. w.
Bard had $4,000 of the Associations
money on call loan. Mr., Bard was
silent under this withering charge, which
was applauded, and the Irish woman
said, "Och I'm robbed. I'm that's
poor washerwOman that has gone bare
footed in the winter to put my money in
here. 0. the old robber! They're all
robhersp Three or four members had
the floor at once, shouting and yelling,
and the feeling waxed warm, until it
seemed that bloOdshed would be the
outcome. Davis said he did not believe
that Russell was alone to blame in this
matter, and he was for bringing crinni
nal prosecution against the officers, Thus
the confusion kept up until midnight,
and out Of it all came a motion instruct
idg the committee that had reported to
act with the Attorney of the Association
and other legal counsel in such manner
as to secure the Society from loss. The
end. o ye gentle plunderers, is not yet |!
for such is the feeling among some that
they dare openly to threaten violence,
and Russell will not be the only sufferer.

around the management Of National
banks, Among them is one that prohib-
its thu deposit of more than ten per cent
of capital with any private banker or

forced might have prevented some Of
the worst scandals in nationalbank man

letter from a resident ofNewtown, Mont
gomeryshire, England North Wales, Ia
a relative here, in which the distinguish
ed Robert owen was born and where he
died, near eighteen years ago. 1t seems
the residents of that town are agitating
the erection of a monument in the
market place and a memorial window Of

memory. Mr. Owen was an earnest
socialist, and spent some five hundred
thousand pounds in projects to ameliorAte
the condition of laboring humanity. He
left his birth place when youth and

he acquired his great wealth in mann-

nevolence of character, and was the
author Ot several works on The improve
