HYMN BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.

The following hymn written for the occasion
= MIR. John &. Whittier, was sung to the tune
"Auld Lang Syne" at the banquet Of tb'
merican Pathological society in Boston.
o Painter OF the fruits and flowers,
We own thy wise design,
Whereby these human nands Of ours
May share the work of thine.
Apart from thee we plant in vain
The root and BOW the seed;
Thy early and thy later rain,
Thy sun and dew We neod
Cur toll is sweet with thankfulness,
Our burden is our bo)n;
The course of Earth's gray morning il
The blessing Of its noon.
Why search the wide world everywhere
That garden of the primal pair
Nav never more be found.
But, blest by thee, our patient toll
May right that ancient wrong,
And give to every cline and soil
The beauty lost 80 long.
Our homestead flowers and fruited trees
May Eden's orchard shame;
We taste the tempting sweets of these
Like Eve without her blame.
And, North and South and East
The pride ct overy zone,
The fail esl, rarest, and the best
May all be made our own.
Its earliest shrines the young world sought
In hill groves and in bowers;
The tittest offerings thither brought
Were thy own fruits and flowers.
: And still with reverent hands we chll
Thy gifts each year renewed;
The good is always beailtiful-
The bpsutiful is good.

How to Make the Girls Strong.

See to it that your girls have strong
bodies. Don't ruin them by over indul-
gence. Give them, from babyhood. nu-
tritious food and constant exercise to
change that food into vigor and strength.
The Swiss, who are strong, active, and
vigorous people, rarely eat anything but
bread and butter and cheese, AMI drink
milk, thus proving that meat is not abso-
lutely necessary. Still we have so great
tendency toward the eating of pies and
sweetmeats, instead Of potatoes, and fish,
that it is small wonder if we are spare,
feeble, and nervous. Our girls eat so little
cheese, SO little nitrogen or flesh making
food; consume 80 little nutriment contain
ing phosphorus. that meat is absolutely q
necessity, that their vitality, strength,
muscle, and activity may not be far below
that of any other people. They should con-
sumo more albumen and less sugar, have
more physical and less mental exercise,
since the strength IF the body supports the
brain. There is nothing more important
than the keeping Of regular and early hours.
Women who from necessity spend most Of
the day in bed and the night in work or
dissipation, have always pale, faded COM
plexion, and darkly- trimmed and wearied
eyes. Too much sleep is almost as hurt
full as too little, and nothing is SO unfavor-
able to female beauty.

The Little American Hen,

While there is very little respect paid to
the hen as factor, there is very general
respect paid eggs as a crop. Eggs are not
only the sure crop that farmer can rely
on but is the only product of the farm, that
has held its own amid the fluctuations Of
trade. Bonds may 60 down or up, gold
may rise and fall OH it's standard, cotton
may decline or corn go up, but eggs stick.
In 1868 a dozen eggs would only buy a
yard of calico now it buys three, It would
buy one pound Of bac0n-n0w it buys three.
It would buy two and one half pounds of
Aour-now tbuys five. And so on through
the chapter. While everything else has
dropped, eggs have stood to their old high
water mark. If gold gives out, grateful
nation may yet make eggs the standard Of
value. There is no more delightful or
wholesome food on the farm than can be
found in eggs. The secret Of the enor-
nous prosperity Of the French people is
that they have proper respect for the hen
and for her subsequence-the egg. They
live on these small things, and they grow
rich by selling their crop.

Fitness for a True wedding.

Says Robert Colyer: "The truest we'd
ded life can only come out of the truest
unwedded lifo. It is blank follv to imag-
inc that woman who has had half "a dozen
affairs OF the heart, es they are called, can
wed man who has sown his wild oats, and
make happy match of it. who shall
ascend into the hill of the Lord? Who
shall abide in his holy place? He that hath
clean hands and a pure heart, who hath not
lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn
deceitfully.' You say, that means the mer-
chant and the politician, and the man and
woman who would experience religion in
the purest and 1oftieBt sense: I say it
means fitness for true wedding, as GER
tainly as any other thing we can think Of.
There is no reach in our life in which these
great truths can bs more essential, either for
this world or the world to come. You say
It is seeing life; say, it is seeing death.

farmers Notes.

At the meeting of the Minnesota Horti-
cultural society, at Lake City last week,
an address was delivered by the president,
Mr.. j. Harris, of La Crosse, in which he
referred to the history Of the organization
from its first meeting, fifteen years ago, and
traced it's progress and the growth Of the
society down to the present. He predicted
for Minnesota glorious future in hurti-
culture, and pictured him as man far
above the fruit grower of the present-an
intelligent, painstaking gentleman, knowing
not only the different names and habits of
the birds and insects about him, as we'll as
being good botanist.
At the late meeting Of the Minnesota
Horticultural society, Mr.. Pearce, of Min
neapolis, lead paper on strawberry cul-
ture. He recommended as his choice the
following six varieties: Glendale, Crescent
Seeding, Sharpless, Seth Boyden, Col.
Cheney, Pioneer. He recommended mel
low soil with as much leaf mould as pos
sible in it, and he would advise planting
the rows four feet apart, with plants fif-
teen inches in row. He cultivates thor
oughly aud spreads covering of straw or
marsh hay on the ground after the ground
is frozen. Remove toe bulk Of the mulch
ing in the spring.
There are many sores on cattle which
if kept constantly washed clean with cold
water and kept free from dirt would heal
of themselves. A very careful herdsman
says his practice Of curing hoof- rot is to
thoroughly cleanse the affected parts with
warm water and soap, and then apply warm
tar between the hoof. In very bad cases
there will be d large core to come out; re-
move it carefully with the thumb and fipger,

water, and then fill it with warm tar. keep
the parts thoroughly covered with tar, even
if it is necessary to use bandage. Keep
the animal in clean, dry pasture.

system than any other ulcer. When once
cured there is no danger of it's appearing
again unless from the same CAUSE.
