Harvest Apples.

Pomona walks in the garden,
She walks with stately mien,
And in her mantle she carries
Apples yellow and green
They glow like the fabsed fruitage
Brought to Paris Of old,
As he stood on the slope of Ida
And heard his fortune told.
She bears them netted in silver,
Where sunbeams dance and play
And thrushes are singing loudly
Their careless roundelay.
And butterflies black and scarlet
Fit through the russell leaves;
The cicada plies his labor,
The early cricket grieves.
And splendid parterres of crimson,
Blossoms of sunset dye,
Incline their heads to the goddess
Who PAGES slowly by.
And there in the glowing noontide.
Disporting in his giee,
Comes Eros, the mischief maker,
Disguised as a brown bee.
And he stings the dreamy goddess
Upon her rosy lip;
As she shrieks and drops her mantle
Away the apples slip.
And the mellow harvest fruitage
Is ours until this day;
Pomona's favorite apple
For love was cast away.

Truths for Wives.

In domestic happiness the wife's in
fuence is much greater than her hus-
bands; for the one, the first cause
mutual love and confdenee-being
granted, the whole comfort of the
household depends upon trifies more
Immediately under her jurisdiction.
By her management of small sums her
husbands responsibility and credit are
erected or destroyed. No fortune can
stand the constant leakage of extrava-
gance and mismanagement; and more
is spent in trifes than women would
easily believe. The one great expense,
whatever it may be, is turned over and
carefully reflected on ere incurred; the
income is prepared to meet it; it is
pennies impreceptibly sliding away
which do mischief, and this the wife
alone can stop, for it does not come
within a mans province. There is
often an unexpected trifie to be saved
in every household. 1t is not in econ
omy alone that wife's attention Is so
necessary, but in those matters which
make well regulated house. An I'M
finished cruet-stand, a missing key, q
buttonless shirt, soiled table cloth, q
mustard-pot with its old contents stick
ing about it, are really nothing; but
each can raise an angry word or cause
discomfort.
Depend upon it, there is a great deal
Of domestic happiness in well dressed
mutton-chop, or a tidy breakfast-table.
Men grow full of beauty, tired of mu-
sic, are often too wearied for converse
ton, however intellectual, but they can
always appreciate well swept hearth
and smiling comfort. A woman may
love her husband devotedly-may sacri-
fee fortune, friends, family, country for
him-she may have the genius of
Sappho, the enchanted beauties of an
Armida; but-melancholy fact-if with
these she fail to make her home COM
Portable, his heart will inevitably es-
cape her. And women live SO entirely
in the affections that without love their
existence is a void. Better submit,
then, to household tasks, however re-
pugnant they may be to your tastes,
than doom yourself to a loveless home.
Women of higher order Of mind Will
not run this risk; they know that their
feminine, theiF domestic, are their first

A soft footstep sounded without on

came in between me and the moonlight,
that poured through a window across
the room.

The door opened just at this moment,

hands, and drew me under the chande-

some scorn.

morning by one of my mischievous
cousins.

"Oh, my! of course not. Are we to

"Never!" retorted.
"Of course not" cousin Henry said,

pal Church in Lima, in a most i'm.
pressive manner. The bride was
the beau ideal of what bride
ought to be, and the other ladies' toilets
were as refined as they were costly.
The banqueting rooms were worthy OF
the occasion, and in every appointment
defied the criticism of the most fastid-
ious; while the floral decorations of the
principal drawing-rooms were most ex-
quisite, testifying favorably to the hor-
ticulture of Peru and to the taste of
those who prepared them. One of the
rooms of the spacious mansion was de-
voted to the valuable and brilliant col
lection of presents to the fair bride. 1t
comprised articles of virtu, jewelry, Gu
riosities of the country, and many other
things of utility and beauty. Most of
the articles comprising the collection
were specially imported for the occa-
sion, and not few of them are of
great value. A string-band was in at
tendance, and performed some selec-
tons from operas in a most brilliant
manner. At the banquet many excel
lent speeches were made, and due honor
was done to the happy couple and to

the hard work necessary. This can be
done by muscle when directed by brains.
The true farmer is he who can plan, di-
