How can we say farewell to you
Our noble hearted boy
and think that you can no more be
Cur comfort and our joy?
How can we think that you have gone
Forever from our Wow
And quel that bitter, scalding tear
That will Our eyes bedew?

Bursts from our aching breast.

Which thou has kindly given,
One link is severed and we have
Another friend in Heaven.

A Serious Observation-Disclosures.

An exchange says; "The manure drop
ped in pastures is nearly lost by exposure to
the sun and wind, its fertility being thus
dissipated." This is so far from being truth
that it may justly be called the reverse of
truth. How otherwise came even the ignor-
ant Spanish shepherd to frame the proverb,
"the sheep has golden foot" from seeing
how the pasturage of sheep continually i'm
proves the pasture. And although the dung
of cattle is voided in heaps, unevenly, and
smothers the heritage where it falls, while
making that around 1t too rank for sweet
ness, and so uneaten, there is no actual loss.
II is chemically and physically impossi.
BILE that there should be any notable loss of
manure dropped in pastures, and the increas-
ingly prevalent practice of top dressing
grass lands shows that practical farmers UNI
derstand that. Let us look into the matter q
little, that we may understand just how 1t Is
The fertilizing elements of the dung and
urine of our pastured stock consist mainly
of the phosphoric acid and potash they con
tam, and the heterogeneous matter. The first
two are neither volatile nor volatizable un
der the conditions to which they are exposed
in the pasture. They are leached out by thu
rains from the dung, and absorbed by thu
soil, which also absorbs the urine whel
voided. Most Of the nitrogenous matter i
contained in the urine, and is, by this imme

An Esquimaux House, or Hut.

One would think that cold and dreadful as
the Arctic regions are known to be, the in
habtants would need every comfort that
could be imagined in the way of house.
But no. The first thing the Esquimaux does
in his house-building is to clear away the
snow and ice from spot of ground of the
right size for his house. This he makes as
smooth as he can, leaving one end little
higher than the other. The higher end is to
serve as parlor and bedroom the lower as
workshop and kitchen. Around this cleared
spot of earth blocks of hard frozen snow
are laid in such fashion that they form a
low round roof resembling in shape the half
of hollow ball. BY way of window, a
small square of rather thin and clear ice is
set into the wall. On the side of the house
least exposed to wind is long and low pas
sage-way leading to the open air. This pas
sage is so low that the inmates of the house
have to crawl through it on their hands and
knees. The door is only loose block of
snow. These huts do not appear to be very
charming residences, but there are two good
things about them One is, that the high
winds of that desolate region cannot posi-
bly, blow hut over, though they may bury
it in snow the other good thing is that nc
one hut can be lived in longer than sea
son. The poor Esquimaux are, unfortuna
tely, very dirty people, and if they lived
ever so long in one house they would never
clean it. But the snow-house finally cleans
itself in the most thorough manner, for SC
soon as the warm days of summer come il
melts away, and its inmates must set about
building seal-skin tent that will shelter
them till winter comes again.-.St Nicholas

"Swear Words"


The Scotch say that "Those that will
swear will lie" and some who do not wish
to be considered lrofane yet use "swear
words" which might well be omitted. A
little five.year-old boy overheard workman,
who was repairing the stting-room, drop
an exclamation over some slight mishap
That's the first swedr toord | ever heard in
may fathers house," was the grave rebuke
of the little boy. 1t so touched the rough
man that he went to the mother Of the boy
and confessed his fault. While engaged on
the job he never again lapsed into vulgarity
or profanity. The boy, now tall lad, welds
the same influence over his mates They
understand that his part in the game il
ended as soon as bad words are introduced
The knowledge that his fathers tongue was
never polluted by profanity, together with
his mothers precepts, and child's natural
desire to be ike his father, have given thi,
salutary bias to his early life. Boys, keeI
from "swear words of all kinds. They dc

A Loving Son.

Arthur was the son of poor widow who
could hardly earn enough to buy food for
herself and son. She had no warm shawl
and could not go to church in cold weather.
Arthur felt sorry to see his mother kept at
home for such a cause. His sorrow was
real, too, for it made him set his wits to
work to earn money. He became bellows
blower to the organist, and ran errands for
the neighbors until he had earned enough to
buy a cheap, warm shawl. He kept his
plan secret, bought the shawl, carried il
home, and stealing up behind his mother
spread it out and laid it over her shoulders
"What is my son about Z" cried the widow
starting from her chair. Then feeling the
shawl, she grasped it and said, "Why, what's
this Z" "A nice, warm shawl for my dear
mother to wear to church /" cried Arthur
clapping his hands and dancing around the
room for Joy; "isn't it beauty, mother p
When his mother learned how the shawl had
been procured, her heart was glad. Tears
filled her eyes, and pressing Arthur to hel
breast, she said, any DEAR dear boy!" Was
not Arthur well paid, think you, for all hi.
work and pains in earning that shawl
doubt if there was happier boy in the
nation that night than Arthur. What made
him so happy2 Love and duty lie hat
loved his mother and had shown it by work
ing very hard TO buy a shawl. The gift haC
become Joy to her lonely heart because il
made her feel that her boy loved her, that ht
returned love for love- If boys knew how
much value their mothers set on their Low,
they would love them more.
