ONE AND FA1THFUL.

All athwnrtsthe fragrant cedars
And tho rivers deep. dark splendor,-
All athwart the waving hemlocks
The gleamy moonlight lies.
As they walk a faverite pathway
where the leaves breathe whisperings tender
And he cares not for the darkness
While loves light beams in hereyes.'
Up the grassy slope they ramble.
Where the moonlight falls IN broken,
Till they reach the farfhest summit,
Aud the tos n seems far away,
Many chances fond were battered,
Though but few, few words were spoken
As they climbed the Lii which lates5
Babe farewell to parting day.
Brt at last-brave heart tho whispered:
"See yon streams that meet and mtugle,
From two sources strange ard distant
They brain their constant flowJ
will be like ono. If thou wilt.
So orr lives may he single
Stream of love and true devotion,
Bright with joy e urchangiuE glow"
o'er the hills By that same river,
Old and rray-batred now they wander,
MANY years have lived and persisted.
Yet those shining streams still mee).
And their hearts are one and faithful
While in silent thought they ponder
Memories of the days departed
When they learned that life Is sweet.

The Greed for a Farmer.

The agriculturist of Canada met in con.
vention not long ago and adopted for them.
selves the following creed :
We believe in small farms aud thorough
cultivation.
We believe the earth loves 20 eat az we'll
as the owner, and ought, therefore, to be
we'll msnured.
We believe in going to the bottom of
things. and. therefore, in deep blowing, and
enough of it. All the better if it BIO sub,
soil pillow.
We believe In large crops which leave
land better than they found it, making both
the farm aud farmer rich at once.
We believe that every farmer should own
good farm.
We believe that the fertilizer of any soil
Is spirit of industry, enterprise, and intel
hgonce; without these,-lime, gypsum, and
guano will BIO of little use.
We bslisve in good fences, good farm
houses, goud orchards. and good children
enough to gather the fruit.
We believe in 4 clean kitchen, q neat
wife in it, clean cupboard, dairy, and a
clear conscience.
We believe that to ask a mans advice is
not STOPPING. but of much benefit
We believe that to keep place for every.
thing. and everything in its place, saves
many step, and ia pretty sure to lead to
good tools aud keeping them in order.
We believe that kindness to stock, lik 8
good shelter, is a saving of fodder.
We believe that it is good thing to keep
an eye on experiments, and note all, good
and bad.
We believe that it is q good rule to Sc II
grain when it is ready.
We believe it is good plan for every
farmer to attend to his own business.
A BaIGur Boys HAPPY THOUGHT
That was pretty bright thought of one of
the Pattecsons, who. when employed some
years since lad in an Office 10 New York,
was sent to present billto shaky concern,
with orders to collect it at all hazards. After
much urging the head of the debtor house
gave him check Tor 500, the amount of
tbs bill Hurrying to the bank at which
it was payable, tho lad presented the check,
