WATERFOWL, WIS.

"Give me the girl whose lips disclose,
Whenever she speaks, rare pearls in rows,
And yet whose words more genuine are
Than pearls or any shining star.
"Giye me those silvery tones that seem
An angels singing in dream,-
A presence beautiful to view,
A seraph's, yet q woman's too.
ssGiye me that one whose temperate mind
Is always toward the good inclined,
Whose deeds spring from her soul unsought-
Twin born of grace and artless thought;
" Give me that spirit, -seek for her
To be my constant minister "
Dear friend,-I heed your earnest prayers
Til call your lovely scife downstairs.

THE Two VILLAGES.

Over the riyer, on the hill.
Lieth a village white and still;
All around i1 the forest trees
Shlyer and whisper in the breeze:
Over it sailing shadows go
OF soaring hawk and screaming crow.
And mountain grasses, low aud sweet.
Grow in tho middle of every street.
Over the river. under tho hill,
Another village lieth still;
There see, in the cloudy night.
Tninkling stars of household light
Fires that CLEAN from the smithy's door,
Mists that curl on tho river shore;
And in the road no grasses grow
For the wheels that hasten to and fro:
In that village on the hill
Never is sound of snlithy or mill;
The houses are thatched with grass and flowers;
Mover a clock to toll the haurs;
The marble doors always shut,
You cannot enter in hall or hut,
ALI the villagers lie asleep;
Never u Eruiu to SOW or reap;
Never in dreams to moan or sigh,
Sllent and idle and low they lie.
In that village. under the hill,
When the night is starry and still.
Many weary soul in prayer

Now Save the Rags.

The most noticeable, perhaps. of all
the advances during the late "boom'
has been in the price of rags, which
have more than doubled in value, and
are now worth three cents and Il half
per pound. At this price, and even at
much less, it will pay to save them and
sell them. The same is true of old
paper of nearly every kind, as by clean
sing they are reconverted into white
paper by the manufacturers.
In consequence Of the scarcity of rags
and old paper, the price of "print," or
paper for news purposes, has gone up
from six and half to ten cents at
wholesale. If this price keeps up,
there will be general rise in the sub
scription price, as has indeed in many
instances already occurred.
Almost any family can make enough
n year by selling rags and old paper
to pay for all their reading matter.

for the four aces on his knee. They
were gone! Rising, he cried in tones of

WINTER LAYERS.

To obtain q breed of fowls, or rather
to breed flock of fowls, that are con-
slant egg producers, is the great desid-
eratum. Many fowl-breeders have at
one time and another imagined that
they have approximated to perfection
in this direction. By far a much larger
class of Observation-Disclosures who breed
to sell-have at one time and another
advertised that they and they alone had
reached perfection in this particular To
obtain fowls that will lay all the time is
an impossibility. 1t is an impossibility
to expect fowls to lay for more than a
few, months at a time, without taking a
rest. The frequency of these periods of
recuperation and their duration deter
mine to the mind of the breeder the val
ne of the bird. Some breeds will lay
but for short time in the summer, and
then the hens take to sitting, and there
are no more eggs for that season. Some
other breeds, under good care, will
commence laying in early spring, and
continue to lay with commendable per-
severance until the weather becomes
quite cold. Breeds of poultry possess
ing these characteristics are very good
to rely on. Good treatment will be
promptly paid for. There are other
breeds that will lay almost the entire
year, with the exception of the time
spent in resting or in sitting. These are
the nearest approach to perpetual lay
ers, and even the fowls Of these breeds
will at times stop laying for no other
apparent reason than that they seem to
want rest-which is reason enough.
Some breeds of fowls seem to be more
apt to lay in winter, and others will lay
only in spring. The natural tendency
of all fowls is to produce eggs only in
summer, and any improvement in this
particular is due to natural selection,
improvement in breeding and good care.
1t is a comparatively easy matter to OBJ
tain eggs in winter, if the proper ar
rangements are made beforehand.
Chicks of the large breeds that it is de-
sired should become winter layers,
should be Matched in March or April.
This is very essential, as it is necessary
that they should obtain a good growth.
Leghorn and Golden Polands and the
smaller breeds will do well enough if
Matched in May or June. lido not fancy
us winter fowls those that nave large
combs, wattles and feathered legs; they
are much too apt to suffer from the
cold. All fowls require warm houses,
plenty of good food and constant care,
if it is intended that they should lay
eggs in winter. There must be va
riety in the diet, with access to pure
water and broken oyster-shells. With
all the conditions perfectly favorable,
the farmer may have to feed his fowls
until he is quite discouraged before he
sees any prospect of fresh eggs. But if
the fowls are cared for in an intelligent
manner, the eggs are sure to come, and
eggs produced in winter command
fair price, being much more markets.

from the summer before. ] do not mean
