The little spring
Is tiny thing,
put its flowing waves give life TO the willing earth
The grass grows greener along Its way,
The flowers are brighter, and bless the day,
That gave the sweet spring Its birth.
The seed Is small
That the child let's fall,
Yet the mother earth holds II to her bosom dear
The sunbeam glistens above its bed,
And soon TO the day Ii lifts Its head
The future oak tree Is here.
One little word,
III in kindness heard,
Has power far more than ever the spring can Dear
Ii lifts the sorrow that weighs the heart,
IL takes from the bitter thought the smart,
And gladdens the home oil care
One act OF love
May an angel prove,
And smother the fame that malice wouiu kihuie

And brings together those long apart.

WHY SEED WHEAT SHOULD BE New.
In 1861 German agriculturist tested
the terminating powers of various seeds:
Taking the wheat of 1851 he selected
100 grains, and he found in 1860 they
had lost all vitality, as not one OF the
seeds terminated. At the same time he
had sown 100 grains of the crops of 1854,
1855, 1851, 1858, 1859 and 1860. Out OF
these the results were as follows:

The CoAsTINa Doe.-Once there was
a young "skeeswax" of boy, named
Jim, who had big Newfoundland dog
that he called Major. He was very
black, curly, handsome dog, good-na-
tufed and full of fun, you know.he
loved fun as we'll as his master--and his
master loved it better than molasses
candy. He loved joke, too, for cnce
when he was trotting along to the Post
Office with a basket in his mouth, as he
had been taught to do, for the mail, a
little snarling cur ran out at him, bark
ing with all might. He had bothered
Major often before, and this time the
old fellow dropped his basket and caught
the little cur right around the back in
his great mouth, picked him up and car.
ried him about ten rods and dropped
him. 1t would have made you laugh to
see that snarling pup 60 bowling for
home, with his tail Rugged tight between
his legs.
Well, one winter Jim used to coast
every day. The hill was just CLASSY,
and the sleds tipped down swift as an
arrow. Major went out with the boys,
and he could keep up with them very well
climbing the hill, but when they started
down they soon left him behind. He
didn't like this at all, and 30 when Jim
left his sled to go to supper--after he had
been called "a usual three times, once by
