Eggs hatch much better il the
nests are made by placing cut turf
and shovel Of mould, sand or ashes
in the box or basket, and on this O
little short straw, than if straw only
is used. In this way convenient
hollow is obtained, that prevents
the eggs rolling out from under the
setting hen. In cool weather the
eggs are thus kept Of u much more
equable temperature than in nests
made simply Of loose straw.

wick becomes blacked, clogged, and

AL truit trees like rather dry,
rich soil. On cold clayoy bottom
diseases arc usually frequent. Do
not plant deep cut of tap roots,
and encourage surface fbers. Sur
face manuring is the best mode OF
doing this after the tree is planted.
DO not allow any thing to grow
vigorously around your trees the

This man, whose homeIy face You look 1non
Was one OF Natures masterful, great men:
Born with strong arms, that unfought battles
won;
Direct OF speech and cunning with the PEN
Chosen for large designs, he had the art
OF winning with his humor and he went
Straight to his mark, which was the human
heart;
Wise, too, for what he could not break, he
bent.
Upon his back a more than Atlas-load.
The burthen of the Commonwealth, was
laid;
He stopped, and rose up to it, through the
road
Shot suddenly downwards, not whit dis
mayed.

The lady in it was lerning back talkiho
to young man on the other side. and
size paused abruptly as Polly's eager face
came on to level with her own. and
turned toward her: while the young man
put up an eyeglass, the better to suppress
the audacious beggar, just as Polly
brought her hand out of her pocket, and
cast the nineteen shillings and sixpence
into the lady's lap.
sits the change, She said breathlessly
"What chahge?" said the lady, with a
sudden shy blush rising to her face. as
she saw people beginning to collect, and
whisper, and stare-as she saw the doctor
who had dismounted and was leading
his horse, stand beside Polly with an
amused smile on his face.
don't laugh, Paul, she said TO him,
half laughing herself. "What is it all
about? don't understand
Nor do !, he said; .but this is a little
patient Ct mine, Margaret. Come, Miss
Polly, | thought you were so poor
where did the money come FRONT"
"Dont you rememberl" said Polly.
turning her sweet, perplexed face on to
that other beautiful face beside her. "a
day last Julys 1t was in Grosvenor
Square, aud you were riding chestnut
horse with White stockings, and you gave
Dick-that's him yonder my brother-a
sixpence to post a letter; but it was
sovereign. and we kept the change to give
YOU"
The lady sat puiet for a minute, with
her eyes bent down and her delicate
gloved hands touching one after another
the shillings that lay in her lap; then she
raised her eyes, that looked sweeter than
ever, with just the shadow of tears in
them, and said, giving a quick glance
round, and then looking straight past
every one at the doctor, Why, Paul, it
was nine months ago-and | never even
missed itr'
They were all quiet for a minute, while
Polly stood looking from one to another,
wondering and perplexed. Then the
doctor touched her and said, "Come,
Miss Polly, we shall have you i'll again.
I'm going to put you and the boys into a
cab and send you home Good-by, Mar
garet, until tonight" He spoke in a
different voice when he turned to the
sweet face and shining eyes and he did
not call her "Lady Margaret as other
people did, for he was going to be mar
ried to her in three days.
Well, that was the end, or rather the
beginning in many ways, for Polly-fo
there was no want in misery or loneliness
for her any more; and Dickie, in after
years; used to say their fortune turned
on the day when the lady rode into eros
venor Square with the letter.
But Polly on her knees sometimes
thanked God for a temptation she resisted
one miserable night in winter for who
else knows, or can ever know, how great
the temptation was? and loyal Polly
ignores or has forgotten how nearly Dick
fell into the temptation too.
