THE ARABS BRIDE.

THE ARABS BRIDE.
Fly swiftly, Jerd, my beautiful.
:, To-day as the wind must ride
Far over the mighty desert,
To find my promised bride.
The stars at my natal hour
Appointed this year--this day
To search from dawn to night fall,
Nor eat-nor rest by the way,
Til where two spreading date trees
Grow lovingly side by side,
maiden awaits my coming,
My loye-my life-my bride!
Her hair must be dusky as midnight
And finer than thrice-spun silk
Her brow must be cloudless as noontidc
And white IA the wild goats milk
Her lips as red us the life blood
That courses, my .Jerid, through thee:
Her breath like musk and spices;
Her eyes deeply blue as the sea;
Her step must be light as the sunbeam
As II touches the golden sand
Her voice as sweet us the sirens
Who sang from their sea girt strand.
But high above all her beauty
As to earth is the far Off sky,
Her soul must be pure as the angels
That in Alah's bosom lie :"
When the beasts came out at midnight
Aud the vultures circling flew,
man lay slowly dying
Where two spreading date trees grew
In his eyes was look of rapture
A look of JOY and pride
As he gazed on the noble charger
That stood sadly by his side.
Farewell. my faithful Jerid,
'fis tlnished-thy masters ride"
And as dawn crcpt over the desert,
Tho Arab had found his bride!

On account of its fine mechanical condition, alb

, Hear SirSNhis is to certify that have used the
Popplein silsNted Phosphate bought of you for
the results hava>peen highly satisfactory. it is
decidedly the best>iertilizer | ever used, and
have used several standard brands have tested
1t beside good compost from my hen-house. and
find where used the Popplein my crops mature
better and the vines, especially tomatoes, bear
ty. Where used IT on cabbage they were twice
as large as where there was none put. Another
good thing can say in favor of this fertilizer is
that can put my plants or seed in the same hill
with the phosphate without any injury to the

Gentlemen-lh have used your Fertilizer for four
years past on the entire range of field and garden
crops, and always with the most satisfactory re-
suits.
have found 1t especially adapted to the growth
OF potatoes and Sugar Beets, and my crop last sea-
son of over twelve hundred bushels of these roots
was grown with this fertilizer and their quality
may be Inferred from the fact that, in a strong
competition i received six first premiums at the
last fair of the Peninsula Agricultural and Po-
biological Association for the largest and best dis
play of root crops. The splendid mechanical con-
ultlOn IN which Fertilizer ia furnished. and
its uniform quality, as determined by annual
analysis in the State Laboratory of Delaware
Collelre, render it most valuable to our farmers
and fruit-growers. Yours, respectfully,
