NEW ENGLAND.

Not fair Italia's sunny skies.
Nor vine-clad hills Of France,
Where youth and age. upon the green,
Join In the merry dance;
Not Britain. on whose surfbeat shore,
Old Ocean dashes evermore;
Nor yet across the Atlantic food.
In all its broad domain,
The land we proudly call our own.
Stretching from main TO main.
Not cen the broad and boundess West,
Unlimited and free
Nor where the Mississippl's tide
Flows onward to the sea.
Let other bards their glories tell.
Build high the lofty rhyme,
And sweep the sounding chords along
In chorus all sublime;
But thine, New England. thine alone
Whose praise would sing.
To thee. my own. my native land,
This tribute now bring.
Thy name love, thy rocks and rills,
Thy valleys spreading wide,
Thy lakes and rivers gliding on
To swell the ocean tide;
Thy mountains lifting high their heads
Against the clear blue sky,
Thy hills, with ceasless verdure crowned,
Thy valleys nesting nigh
These all have charms my heart TO bind.
Though far my steps may roam,
To thee turn and claim thee still,
My own loved native home.
Nor these alone thy ruder scenes
Have joys alike for me.
Where storms arise and tempests howl
Along the deep blue sea,
Upon It's waves love to gaze,
To hear their deaf-ning roar,
And catch their music as they dash
And break along the shore;
To stand where pillows roll beneath,
And lash the rocks with foam,
To feel the spray come dancing up
From out its ocean home.
love where foaming torrents rush
Swim down the mountain side,
Leaping Ger crags and rocks among.
Through valleys spreading wide,
To join the thousand rivulets
That onward ceasless flow;
Feeble at first, but stronger grown,
A mighty river now.
Full many mile its course II holds
Right onward TO the sea,
To mingle its pure waters there
With ocean bounding free.
Where'er turn, where'er 1 move,
Some object meets my view,
That fills my soul with ecstacy,
Though old, yet ever new.
Let others cross the waters Ger
A fairer land to find,
Where flowers perennial bud and bloom,
And float on every wind
Their odors. sweet as breath Of heaven,
To charm the sense and sight,
While skies above radience shed
Ger all serenely bright;
Give me the soil on which / tried,
Than all the world more dear;
The air to breathe where freedom lives.
Though skies above be drear.

FACTS WORTH REMEMBERING.

One thousand shingles laid four inches
to the weather will cover 100 square
feet of surface, and FIVE pounds Of shin
gle-nails will fasten them.
One-ffth more siding and flooring is
needed than the number of square feet
of surface to be covered, because of the
lap in the siding and matching of the
floor.
One thousand laths will cover seventy
yards of surface, and eleven pounds of
lath-nails will nail them on.
A cord of stones, three bushels of lime
and cubic yard Of sand will lay 100
cubic feet of wall.
Five courses of brick will lay one foot
in height on chimney. Nine bricks in
course will make fue eight inches
wide and twenty inches long, and eight
bricks in course will make fue eight
inches wide and sixteen inches long.
A box twenty eight inches by sixteen
inches square, and twenty-eight inches
deep, will contain barrel.
A box twenty eight inches by fifteen
and one-ffth inches square, and eight
inches deep, will contain bushel.
A box twelve inches by eleven and
one-half inches square, and nine inches
deep, will contain half-bushel.
A box eight inches by eight inches
square. and eight inches deep, contains
peck.
DecToRs Sun AND AIR.-The air of
the rooms we live in is more or less alive
with germs. Sunlight with air will kill
them, sunlight without air won't kill
them; consequently sunlight and ven-
tilation are essential conditions of health.
and there must be at least two hours Of
sunlight to produce effective results. 1t
is neithes necessary nor desirable to al
low the scorching sun to pour through
our windows all day long but we must
have enough of it to keep our houses
sweet and fresh, or we must suffer the
consequences. We may keep our houses
open till 10 o'clock in the morning, and
then close them during the heat of the
day, re-opening them in the afternoon
when the noontide fervors are over. The
amount of good round doctors bill fol
attendance on case of diphtheria or ty
phoid fever will amply suffice to put
wire netting over all our doors and win
dows so that no troublesome insect car
find entrance, while sunlight and all
may freely distil upon us their bles-
sings-1ribume.

DRUNKENNEss.-The Wisconsin ply
sician who prescribes cinchona as cure
for drunkenness says the red bark, and
not the yellow, which is usually sold in
drug stores, is the kind for the remedy.
One pound of red cinchona, pulverized
and added to pint Of water, is stepped
for twelve hours, filtered in diluted al
cohol until the tincture is reddish
brown. Dose, a teaspoonful three or
four times a day. or when drink is
craved.

JUVENILE LITERATURE.-1f your chill
dren early display a taste for reading,
select their books carefully. The amount
of Juvenile literature is large and varied,
and there is enough of what is pure in
thought, simple in style, high in princi-
pie and sweet in spirit, to satisfy the
needs of the most eager little student.
If all that is impure and exciting, and
even simply trashy, be carefully exclud-
ed from our children's libraries; if we
form in them the habit of reading and
enjoying the best and most ennobling
books suited to their age; and if a love
for the pure, the true and the beautiful
be developed in their hearts, the surest
blow will have been struck against the
unwholesome influence of impure and
frivolous literature. Above all things
avoid the fashily illustrated papers
which are so tempting to boys.

Give the boys chance. Let them
have an opportunity to make pittance

quarter of that for potatoes something.
anything that will encourage the boys
and give them hope for the future. Far

year, and see if your boys do not seem
more cheerful see if they are not more
contented with their sphere in life and
also see if it will not tend to make them
real, active and enthusiastic farmers.
