Till whitening. persisted unto death,

His lonely parents hearts may beat.
A. if again his toddlng feet,
Were trying hard to initiate,
Papa's steps in their faster gait,
While passing to and fro out doors.
In doing up the evening chores
Al early m orn, their waking eyes
May ill with tears, their souls vent signs
Their lives seem sad in loneliness,
No little Clarence to caress--
But they should feel, and not in vain,
That their sad loss, is but his gain.
His little spirit, holy, pure,
In Heaven rests, eternal, secure.

Our Timber Wealth.

The people of the United States
little dream when they skim the
cream from the virgin soil OF the
West. and send it to Eufope in the
shape of wheat, and fell the mon
arch trees of their forests by the
million every year, that they are
making wanton drafts on the
sources of their wealth which IT will
take generations of careful effort to
repair. They, and perhaps their
children, may not suffer any great
inconvenience from the loss OF
the riches they are so prohlgately
dissipating but their children s
children will hardly pass away
without suffering by the great mis-
take. In many parts Of the coun-
try the white pine tree is almost I'M
known, and the walnut and ash age
going the way il went. The oak Is
still to be found in nearly every
part OF the country, indeed, but it
has lost much of its former grandeur
and glory. The large trees have
been diligently hunted out and
chopped down, and what are left
are gnarled, stunted and insignifi-
cant reminders of the old majesty
of this noble tree, In the middle
belt of States the poplar, with its
blossoms sprinkled with honey'dew,
is fast disappearing, and the syea-
more is rarely found of respectable
size except along the banks Of
streams. 1t is supposed that the
pineries OF the far North are mex
haustible and will furnish the coun-
try with bountiful supply of lum-
Der for ages to come; but 1t was
stated in the recent forestry congress
at Cincinnati that the white pine,
spruce, birch, and tamarac are be-
ing destroyed so fast that soon none
will be left that will have any com
mercial value. Professor Little, Of
Canada. estimates that the supply
of merchantsbie white piIR in the
lower British provinces will be used
up in ten years, and he asserts that
if the waste of forests continues to
go on at the present rate the time
will come when it will cost more
than all our exports of grain and
cotton bring to supply the United
States with timber for building and
repairing purposes.
