LOST AND FOUND.

| lost the brook as it wound its way
Like thread of silver hive;
Through greenwood and y, through meadows
gay,
Twas hldden away from view:
But found il again noble river,
Sparkling and broad and free,
Wider and tairer growing ever
I'LL 1t reached the bouudless sea
lost the tiny seed that | sowed
With many a sigh and tear
And vainly waited through sunshine aud cold
For the young green to appear;
But surely after many long days
The blossom and fruit will come
And the reapers on high the sheayes will raise
For joyful harvest-home.
lost the life that grew by my own
For one short summer day;
And then it left me to wander alone
And silently passed AWAY
But know shall find it further on,
Though not as it left me here;
For the shadows and mists will have passed aud
gone,
| shall see it fair and clear.
| lost the notes of the heavenly chime
That once came floating by;
| have listened and waited many q time
For the echo, though dstantly:
But know in the halls of glory it thrills
Ever by day and night;
shall hear 1t complete when its harmony fills
My soul with great delight.
lost the love that made my life,
love that was all for me;
On! vanv sought it amid the strife
tf the stormy, raging sea
But deeper and purer know it waits
Beyond my wisful ewes;
shall find it again within the gates
OF the garden of paradise.
shall lose this life, it will disappear,
With its wonderful mystery;
Some day it will move no longer here,
But will vanish silently:
But know shall find it again once more,
In beauty no song hath told;
1t will meet with me at the golden door,
And round me forever fold
Golden Hours.

Going After the Cows.

"Jenniel Jennie! Jenniel
Where in the world can Jennie be-
She crossed the meadow an hour ago
What ails the girl that she fingers so."
The sun goes down in the crimson west,
The tired day prepares or rest.
And the laggard moments slowly pass,
But bring no news of the truant lass.
'sWhat aiIs the grl?" The sober cows,
Stopping along the lane to browse,
MAY look In vain from side to side,
And wait for the voice OF their pretty
guide.
For far behind, by the pasture gate,
Jennie and Jamie forget tits late
Forget the cows, and the milking hour,
And everything else save Loves sweet
power.
The iengthening shadows, UNDECIDED fall
The whip-poor will with his plaintive call,
The gathering dews, and the darkening
sky
All warn in vain as the minutes fly.
Twice and thrice does mother go
To the farmhouse door ere she hears the
low
of the cows as they trampel up the lane,
And the ring of the cow-bells clear and
plain.
But presently came the laggar1 feet
or Jennie and Jamie Oh! shyly sweet
Are the girls blue eyes as she stands
before
The mother who meets her at the door!
'sWhere did you go, my child?" "I?-oh,
Only after the cows, you know"
Then whispered annie: "Whateyer you do
Don't tell her that went after YOU"

Teaching Children to Pick Things up.

We know man who Isl quite particular
about keeping everything in its proper
place. We heard him say, that he ac-
ouired this habit through the training OF
his mother. When a boy, even as tar
back az he could remember, his mother
always made him pick up and put away
his play things after he hal got through
with them. He was often allowed to get
out all the materials he wanted for good
time. In bad weather the kitchen was
often at the disposed OF himself and
brother; but they arrays understood that
every thing was to be cleared up at the
close of the play. No doubt there is
difference in children. for we have known
bows of the same family, of nearly the
same age. brought up in all respects
nearly alike as possible, yet one OF them
was always careless, and became care
less easy man, while the other was ex-
tremely particular in all the details OF his
dress. sports, and work Still, granting
this difference which many would call a
natural difference, we believe persistent
training in early childhood would make
an orderly man out of the most careless
child.

Maude.
Barbara always gets her own way"
commented Lisette.
"Hushi" said Mrs. Wylde, authori-
tatively. Here comes your papa up the
laurel walk with Captain Severn"
Lissette peeped from behind the folds
of the futed Swiss curtains, Maude ran
TO the Venetian blinds of the bay-window,
and Barbara climbed with sixteen-year-
old agility into a chair to peep over her
sisters shoulder.
sob, good gracious y cried she, drop
ping from her aerial perch with startling
suddenness.
"What is it?" said Maude.
'sIt's Squire DalIas's hired man !"
gasped Barbara
WHAT" said Lisette.
IL don't mind about the first table"
said Barbara, turning pink and white,
like a York-and- Lancaster rose; I'D
ather eat in the Kitchen with Phillis."
And away she darted like scared young
doe, before any one could stop her.
Go awayl" said Barbara, indignant
ly.
She had cried until her eyelashes were
all glittering and her cheeks stained with
tears, to say nothing of the crumpled state
of her sash ribbon and white muslin
dress, and now she sat crouched under the
shadow of the great Towering almond
bush, as if she would fain retreat utterly
out of the word of sight and hearing
Captain Severn stood immoveable be-
fore her, with folded arms and question
ing Spanish eyes.
II shall not go away" said he,o Gun
til you have pardoned me-"
allow can | ever pardon you," flashed
out Barbara. "You have imposed upon
me, you have practiced on my credulity"
"You asked me to help you gather
strawberries and helped you.n
"You allowed me to suppose that you
were Squire Dallas's hired man."
81 claimed no identity, one way or the
other" pleaded Captain Severn. 81 was
trying to find my way by shortcut
across the fields to your fathers house,
and sat down under the oak tree to rest.
And when you ed me | came, like a
true night of old. Now if you can con-
vict me of any serious offense in all this,
| stand ready to abide the consequences"
"You never. necer will be able to for
give me-" sobbed Barbara, again retiring
behind the end of her blue sash.
Little Barbara said Captain Severn,
falling on his knees, as fit were the most
natural and conventional thing in the
world to do. twill you forgive meP
And what could Barbara say but
"Yes?"
Capt in Severn insisted upon his straw
berry tart that evening, according to
agreement and they ate it together, he and
Barbara, like two school children, out on
the lawn, while Maude yawned behind a
book, and Lisette acidly wondered what
on earth Captain Severn could find to
amuse him in the chatter of a child like
Barbara"
And when the red leaves IF late Octo-
Der choked up the little stream beside
which they had gathered wild strawber-
ries, there was wedding at the Wylde
homestead. and the bride was not Ma1de
the intellectual, nor the lovely Lisette,
but little Barbara.
