We laid our treasure down,
EATING MELON.
BY ANNIE ARANDELL.

On the table lies the monster
Brave in color, cool and green.
And around the children cluster,
Each one eager to be seen.
Deep the knife is plunged into it,
Then is driven clear around,
And the two halves fall asunder
With Il strangely pleasant sound
BOUNDS. though. what a contrast!
That is what the children think
With the core as bright as coral,
And the seeds as black as ink.
How the little mouths do water,
How the little eyes do snap,
AS they glance first at the melon,
Then appeallngly at pap.
Who is busy with the carver,
Slicing up the mammoth.half.
Which he does so very comic
That the urchins have to laugh.
But at last the work (?) is over.
And to each slice is given,
Eating melon in the Summer
Is to youth an ideal of heaven.

Poetry.
BABY's STOCKING.

While poets rave of ''babys Shoes
And 'slittle feet that wear them,
And mothers kiss the tiny hands,
And perfect loves" declare them;
While nurses pirate of infant robe,
The while their charges rocking.
I'll sing you little song
About baby's stocking.
Our little two year old came in,
One bright and dewy morning,
From wandering 'mong Springs garden-beds,
Her face like days sweet dawning.
One chubby leg shown white and bare,
No covering enshrined it,
Her shoe she carried in her hand,
Her stocking-none could find it.
We piled the precious little one
With questions long and wordy,
But all the answer that she gave,
The tOddling thing, was 'birdie.''
When Summer months came fierce and hot,
And robin, wren and starting
Were rearing up their clamoring broods,
God took from us our darling.
We laid our treasure down,
Beneath the blooming clover,
And turned to seek our lonely home,
With tears, when all was over;
Just then, a sweet birds glorious song
Broke out as if in hooking,
And glancing up above, we saw
nest-in baby's stocking!
Five little nestlings peeped from out
Their cosy home together,
That held its own bright, vivid hue,
In spite Of wind and weather;
And when the birds had flown away,
To seek their summer pleasures,
We laid the little scarlet nest
Among our dearest treasures.

DR.. j. I. Goucher and family-we were
made the recipient of the hospitalities of
the latter, where we did ample justice to
the victuals placed before US.
We omitted in our correspondence

may meet with success equal to his most

Mr. Sol. Huff, and j. w. P. Coplin
have just returned from southern Mis-
souri,, where the former had gone on a
prospecting tour with view to engaging
in the lumber trade. They report fine
prospects for wheat throughout southern
ILL.,. & some parts of Missouri especially
in the vicinity of st. Louis. They found
the timber along the south line of the
State, better than they had anticipated:
the high lands covered with forests o
Ash, Walnut and poplar; the low land:
with dense growth Of cypress. The
Huff Bros, have purchased a considera-
BILE tract of land and expect to have mill
in operation there in few weeks.
