mark of insincerity. Manners are catch

Care Of Harness.

OF course it makes the trade good, ane
harness-makers like to see it, but ther
there are really few who can afford to neg
lect the harness as it too often is done
1t goes long weeks without being wash
ed and creased, though tits used constant
ly and in all kinds of weather; it IS either
thrown in the bottom OF the wagon OF
carriage when brought in, in the dust
and dirt there collected, or hung up il
the stables behind the horses, where the
ammoniacal gases soon destroy the tex
ture and fibre, rendering it brittle and
weak. No matter how good the harness
may have been originally it cannot stand
such treatment as that very long, ano
soon becomes old and unsafe. a few
stitches become loose, yet they are neg
Iected until the harness must be sent Il
the shop, and dollar or two spent, and
considerable time lost in gong to the
shop. In the matter of greasing, we giv(
our plan: Choose a rainy day (becanse
the "boys" cannot then work outside)
take the harnesses to the barn and take
them apart, after which soak for little
while in warm (not hot water, and ther
scrub and wash them clean, using gooc
CASTLE soap. Before they are dry, grease
well with neatsfoot oil, rubbing well i'll
then wipe off and hang up TO air. After
you have CREASED the harness, beware Of
the rats, for they will cut it to pieces IL
a little while.

THE TWO BURDENS.

Over The deep sea Love came flying;
Over the salt sea Love flew signing
Alas. o Love, for thy journeying wings
Through turbid light and sound of thunder,
When one wave lifts and one falls under,
Love flew as a bird flies straight for WARM
springs.
Love reached the Northland, and found his
own;
With budding roses, and roses blown,
And wonderful lilies, he wove their wreath;
His voice was sweet as a tune that wells,
Gathers and thunders, and throbs and swells
And fails and lapses in rapturous death,
His hands divided the tangled boughs,
They sat and loved In moist green house,
With bird-songs and sunbeams faltering
Through;
One note of wind to each light leaf;
20 Love, those days they were sweet but
brief
Sweet as the rose is, and feet as the dew,
Over the deep sea Death came flying;
over the salt sea Death came signing.
Love heard from afar tie rush of his wings
Felt the blast of them over the sea,
and turned his face WI ere the shadows be-
And wept for sound of disastrous things.
Death reached the Northland and claimed his
own
With pale sweet flowers by wet winds blown
nc Mofc loF the loFtneau OF one wreath.
His voice was sad as the wind that signs
Through eypress-trees under rainy skies,
When the dead leaves drift on the path be
meath.
His hands divided the tangled boughs
One love he bore to dark greer house
Where never bridegroom may clasp his
bride
place of silence, Of dust, and sleep.
What vigil there shall the loved one keep,
Or what cry of longing the lips diyidey
