AN EVENING REvERrE.


How sweet it is to sit and dream,
And through my window watch the sky
To note how fades the suns last CLEAN;
My pipe nay only company.
The twilight steals along the land,
And yonder peeps tinid star
The earliest of the watchful bands
That cheer this old earth from afar
The children swing upon the gate,
To Heaven in song their voices go
All, little one, strong handed fate
Shall one day swing you TO and FRO
From many a window shines light
To welcome weary ones that roam;
How sweet a symbol 10 the sight;
The light of love in every home.
Above my head a lingering cloud
OF vapor hangeth tenderly;
Care being slain, this forms his shroudi
While peace sits by 70 comfort me.
Go work, wild world, and fret your brain,
But little care for your joys;
Your pOmp, your pride, your pleasures vain )
lin my heart breed sweeter joys.
Go clutch your gold and hold IT fast,
Lest IL should fade ere morning gleamsi
Away, harsh toll, your hour Is past,
Leave me unto my kindly dreams.
Dreams OF the days forever gone,
Dreams OF the years all written DEAD
OF ghosts OF hopes all white and wan
An pipe, thou mak's me droop my head.
Yes, thou dOst ehaSten me at times
Nor can /, scornful, bid thee cease
A voice that speaks from higher chimes =,
Cries, sorrow rightly borne brings peace"
What though beneath the turf he lies,
Nv eomrade true, my dearest fr1endi
Are there no worlds beyond the SKIES
Where life is life, and knows no end.
Oft when dream at this sweet hour,
He seems to sit b. me again
s o true is love, so strong It's power,
lives TO see the death OF pain.
He cometh as he used TO come,
With laugh on lip and glad eyes bright
Alas that those sweet lips are DUMP,
And those glad eyes now closed in night
But like a song of long ago
That sings unbidden in the BRAIN
His well known voice full soft and low,
Strikes gweetly on my ear again.
And all the olden days troop forth
With garlands hung and loud with song
Till dieth out from me all wrath
That this old worlds so full of wrong.
And like a holy messenger
To tell Of days when pain shall cease
His spirit seems; then gOeth fear
From out my heart, and enters peace.
SO dream on in painless mood
fwhat has been, and what will be;
And thank the Giver of all good
For my sweet angel, Memory.
Ali pipe, thou art to me charm
To drown the present in the past;
A solace sweet, a soothing balm,
To heal the wounds that come so fast.
Now thou art out, and dusky night
Ger hidden nature reigns supreme.
Ended is day, sweet child of light;
And ended is my twilight dream

To Obtain Fruit from barren Trees.

To Obtain Fruit from Barren Trees.
A correspondent of the American
Agriculturist says: 81 wish to de
scribe to YOU method of making
fruit trees bear that I Numbered on.
Some fifteen years ago L had a small
apple tree that leaned considerably.
/ drove a stake by it, tied string
to limb, and fastened it to the
stake. The next year that limb
blossOmed full and not another
blossom appeared on the tree, and.
as Tim Bunker says, 'it sOt me a
thinkin,' and l came to the con-
clusiOn that the string was so tight
that it prevented the sap returning
to the roots consequently it formed
fruit buds.
Having a couple of pear trees that
were large enough to bear, but had
never blOsSOmed, / took a coarse
Irvine and wound it several times
around the tree above the lower
limbs, and tied it as tight as / could.
The next spring all the top above
the cord blOSsOmed as white as a
sheet, and there was not one bios
som below where the cord was tied.
A neighbOr, seeing my trees loaded
with pears, used this method with
the same result. l think it a much
better way than cutting off the roots.
In early summer, say June or July,
wind a strong Irvine several times
around the tree, or a single limb,
and tie 1.-THE tighter the better,
and you will be pleased with the re-
suit. The next winter or spring the
cord may be taken off"
