THE OPEN WINDOW.

The old house by the lindens
Stood silent In the shade,
And on the graveled pathway
The light and shadow played,
saw the nursery windows
Wide open TO the air;
But the faces Of che children,
They were no longer there.
The large Newfoundland house dog
Was standing by the door;
He looked for his little playmates,
Who would return no more.
They walked not under the llndens,
They played not In the hall;
But shadow and silence and sadness
Were hanging over all.
The birds sang in the branches
With sweet, familiar tone;
But the voices OF the children
win be heard in dreams alone!
And the boy that walked beside me,
He could not understand
Why closer In mine, All! closer,
pressed his warm, soft handl

If tie length of the shadow on the 2lst
of June is divided into four equal parts,
and the length on the 21st of December
INTO two equal parts, we shall have six
equal measures OF length corresponding
with six unequal intervals OF time; these
intervals may then be distinguished ac-
cording to the length or the shadow.
The Japanese avail themselves OF this
regularity of shadows in their country
to adjust the division Of their solar year,
the first day of which corresponds with
the 21st of June of the Gregorian reckon
Ing. They divide the year into twelve
equal months (maHgsa,) which are re-
