If, sitting with his little worn-out shoe
And scarlet stocking on my knee,

The pearl-set gates that lie 'twixt heav'n

And look with glad eyes to'rd the jasper

And for the music of his dimpled feet,

No answer, and saw but his vacant seat.
Icould be glad, if, when the day is done,
. And all its cares and heapt-aches laid away,
I could look westward to the hidden sun
And with heart all full of yearning say,
"Io-night Pm nearer my little one
BY just the travel of one earthly day."
II could know those little feet were shod
In sandals wrought of light of better lands,
And that the footprints of a tender God
Ran side by side with his in golden sands,
could bow cheerfully and kiss the rod
Since Benny was in wiser, better hands
Ii he We're dead, would not sit to-day
And stain with tears the wee sock on my
knee;
would not kiss the tiny shoe and say,
Bring back my darling little one to me-"
would be patient, knowing twas Gods

That sometime my little child might see.
But 0. to know the feet once pure and white,
The haunts of vice had boldly entered in,
The hand that should have battled for the

Had been wrung crimson in the clasp of sin,
And should he knock at Heavens gate to-

mongrels, which latter many do for fear of

ing, get Leghorns or Hamburgs; Il you
wish breed for weight, get some Of the
Brahmas or Cochins, and il You wish a
breed principally for ornament, get the
Polish; but give up the idea Of getting a
grand combination of all these 0uali-
ties In one breed. Make up your
mind what you wish, in the way OF fowls,
and then select such breed as will answer
those requirements best. Give them good,
comfortable quarters, supply them liber-
ally with water, giving them requisite
care and attention, aud you will never
have cause TO regret your investment in
pure-bred fowls. When your neighbors
see what nice birds you have they will nat
urally want some OF them or a setting Of
the eggs, and thus will demand be Great

expense. II you had bred nothing but
mongrels there would haye been little or
no demand, and then merely at market
prices. A good trio Of pure.bred fowls,
OF almost any kind, can now be bought at
fair figures from reliable breeders in most
sections OF the country.
