Rock-a-Bye, Baby.

"Rock.a-bye, baby, in the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock:
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall
Down tumbles baby and cradle and all"
Rock-a-bye, baby; the meadows in bloom,
Laugh at the sunbeams that dance IN the
room,
Echo the birds with your baby tune,
Coo at the sunshine and flowers of June.
Rocks bye, baby; as softly it swings,
Over the cradle the mother love sings;
Brooding or cooing at even or dawn,
What will it do when mother is gone?
Rock-a-bye baby; so cloudless the skies,
Blue as the depths of your own laughing eyes
Sweet as the lullaby over your nest,
That tenderly sings little baby to rest.
Rock-a-bye, baby; the blue eyes will dream
Sweetest when mammals eyes over them
beam; - .H
Never again will the world seem 80 fair
Sleep, little babe-there are clouds in the air.
Rock-a-bye, baby, the blue eyes will burn
And ache with pain that your manhood will
Swiftly the years come with sorrow and care,
With burdens the wee dimpled shoulders must
bear.
Rock-a-bye, baby; there's coming day
Whose sorrows amothers lips can't kiss away,
Days when its song shall be changed to a
moan,
Crosses that baby must bear all alone.
Rock-a-bye, baby; the meadows in bloom.
Nay never the frost pail the beauty in bloom
Be the world ever bright. as today it is seen
Rock-a-bye, baby, "thy cradle is green"

Our Homestead.
BY PHOEBE CARY.

Our old brown homestead reared its walls
From the wayside aloof,
Where the apple boughs could almost cast
Their fruitage on the roof;
And the cherry tree SO near it grew,
Then when awake I've lain
In the lonesome nights and heard the limbs
As they creaked against the pane;
And those orchard trees; oh, those orchard
I've seen my little brother rocked
In their tops by the summer breeze.
The sweetbrier upon the window sill,
Which the early birds raade glad,
And the dark damask-rose by the garden fence
Were all the flowers we had.
I've looked at many flower since then,
Far brought, and rich and rare,
To other eyes more beautiful,
But none to me SO fair;
For those roses bright-oh, those roses bright
I've twined them with my sisters locks,
That are laid in the dust from sight.
We had well, deep old well,
Where the spring was never dry;
And the cool drops down from the mossy
stones
Were falling constantly;
And there never was water half so sweet
AS that in my little cup,
Drawn up the curb by the rude old sweep
Which my fathers hand set up;
And the deep old well-oh, that deep old well
remember yet the splashing sound
OF the bucket as it fell.
Our homestead had an ample hearth,
Where at night we loved to meet;
There our mothers voice was always kind,
And her smile was always sweet;
And there I've sat on my fathers knee
And watched his truthful brow, aas,... VI
With my childish hands in his raven hair
That hair is silver now! .-@'
But that broad hearth's light-oh, that broat
hearth's light! ., d
And my fathers look and my mothers smile
They are in my heart tonight.

Health Hints.

Wash For The Mouth- Dissolve a
spoonful of black current jelly in half
cup of hot water, and add two humps of
sugar. Keep it in the mouth as long as
possible. but do not swallow it. 1t will
give relief when the tongue is dry or the
mouth foul.
For Boils.-The skin of boiled egg
is the most eficacious remedy that can be
applied to boil. Peel it carefully, wet
and apply it to the part affected. 1t will
draw off the matter and relieve the sore
ness in a few hours. Simple but effics-

Accidental Poisoning.

An excellent antldOte for arsenic is
chemical substance Gale hidrate perox-
ide Of iron, freshly prepared, which can
only be obtained of a druggist. But do
not wait for this. While it is being sent
for, and at the first moment after discev-
ering that arsenic has been taken, pour
down dose after desc OF water slightly
warmed, promoting vomiting by thrust
ing the finger or a feather down the
throat. Keep up this until the stomach
has been literally washed out, at least q
dozen times. A friend of ours took a
teaspoonful of arsenic in mistake for
cream of tarter, but discovering his error
soon after, he ran to the stove and drank
all he could of lukewarm dish-water,
throwing it up as fast as ne took it, and
ir this way swallowed and vomited half
a pailtul of water. He recovered with
cut any other remedy. This treatment is
good for most kinds of poison, if adopted
soon enough.
