attended to at an early date The patronage of the
musical public is respectfully solicited.

Measuring the Twilight.
BY MRS. L. p. sEI.oYER.

BIZ MRS. L. p. sELovER.
] am sitting in the twilight, with my face
against the pane,
And measuring the shadows with an aching
heart and brain;
They are deepening slowly, surely, and the
night is coming on.
VIII some bright star light earth's pathway
when the gleam OF day is gonei
How memory bears me backward to brighter,
fairer day,
When bounded through n mossy wood 10 join
some child at play;
Our hearts were tree and merry then, with not
shade of care,
Till the waning OF the daylight brought its
shadows on the air.
remember then how fieetly through the lealy
grove / sped,
That my eye might catch the home-light ere
days glimmering light had fed;
And l minded not the shadows rs, in all its
splendor bright,
Through the darkness on my pathway shone a
mothers beacon light.
I've Deen measuring tne sIhuoWs III tuonB lle D
many years,
Till my eyes are dim with weeping and my
heart is drowned in tears;
Ny feet are pierced and bleeding by the thorns
in life's dark way,
And I've found my sweetest treasures in my
clasping turned to clay.
For the light of home is sadly quenched in deep
funereal gloom,
The hand that led my youthful feet lies home
less in the tomb
The kindred one where soul meets soul my
worship may not own,
And amid a world of busy feet walk the earth
alone.
Life's skies are deepening and the clouds are
gathering thick and fast,
Will the star of hope shine once for me wher
the rage is overpastl
Tho burden of my soul is borne upon the
MINDLESS air
and the twitter of the night bird seems bu
mooking my despair.
So I'm sitting in the twilight, with my fac,
against the pane,
And measuring the shadows with my aching
heart and BRAIN
Oh, spirit of my mother, gleam upon my sou
tonight,
Till have proved the promise mine, "At ey'
it shall be light"

Introduction of Wheat into America.

Prior to the discovery of this continent
by Columbus, there was no cereal in
America approaching in nature the
wheat plant. 1t was not until 1880 that
wheat found its way into Mexico, and
then only by chance. A slave of Cortez
found a few grains of wheat in parcel
of rice and showed them to his master,
who ordered them to be planted. The
result showed that wheat would thrive
well on Mexican soil, and to-day one of
the finest wheat valleys in the world is
near the Mexican capital. From Mexi-
co the cereal found its way to Peru.
Maria D'Escobar, wife of Diego de
Chauvres, carried few grains to Lima,
which were planted, the entire product
being used for seed for several success
sive crops. At Quito, in Ecuador, a
monk of the Order of st. Francis, by the
name of Fray Iodosi Rixi, introduced
the new cereal, and it is said that the
Jar which contained the seeds planted is
still preserved by the monks of Quito,
Wheat was introduced into the present
limits of the United States contempO-
raneously with the settlement Of the
country by the English and the Dutch

SHOULDN'T BE MISSED.
Words Of Wisdom.

Fear naturally quickens the fight o
guilt.
Knowledgeis is more than equivalent to
force.
Tears are the gift which love bestows
upon the memory of the absen and they
will avail to keep the heart from suttoca-
ton.
How many useful hints are obtained
by chance, and how often the mind,
hurried by her own ardor to distant
views, neglects the truths that lie open
before her
Don't YOU wish sometimes that the
world would stop talking and let you
thinkP And have you never been eXas-
perated to hear some one utter the very
thought which you had cherished as
all your own, and which you were just
going to utterP
Beware of him who is slow to anger.
Anger, when it is long in coming, is the
stronger when it comes and the longer
kept. Abused patience turns to fury.
When fancy is the ground of passion,
that understanding which compOses the
fancy qualities the passion; but when
Judgment is the ground, the memory is
the recorder and this passion IS long
retained.
Omit brooding over your troubles,
