raven, carron crow magpie and jay; even the TOOK

the keepers zeal and industry in the performance VI
his duties
These duties vary according TO the time OF year.
In spring, when the shooting season is over "n"
early summer his ordinary work Is 10 loon "i'',
the breeding of the game-brds, note their places VI
nesting and see that they are not disturbed OF IN

activity for the extirpation of "vermin" all sorts
of it being at this season tanner ana so easier 10
circumvent. The bird-nestng boy. also, needs
looking after the damage done by him being often
as great or greater than that accruing from the
regular poacher. AS autumn approaches, the
keeper finds full occupation in the training of young
dogs to the gun and it may be giving some young
master his first lessons in renerie. Later on. when
the shooting season recommences, on all shooting
days he is the cOmpdgnon de chdSse of his employer
and such friends as the latter may invite to shoot
with him, the keeper having an eye to their sport
ing tackle, to that it is in proper condition.,
and otherwise lending them hand. This period
of the year, with its special meter, is bis merrest
as also most lucrative, since he receives many
handsome tip" from the strangers to whom 1t
is HE care to be civil.
The regular wages of gamekeeper reckoned by
the week, vary according to circumstances If
." head keeper" on large estate, with hrst-class
character and qualifications, his pay will be high in
proportion. But the average for ordinary keepers
is about E1 per week, exclusive of his lodge which
he holds rent free. There also other advan-
tages obtanable by him. perQusites received for
the breaking in of dogs belonging to his master S
friends, and percentage on the sale of rabbits !;
with occasionally some sold the master wots not of.
Sometimes, Also the keepers wife follows an
economy which adds to their common income
having an engagement to raise and provide the
table of the mansion with eggs, poultry, capons.
and such commodities, often on q grand scale.
From all this it will be that gamekeepers are
better oil than the men of their class who follow
most other Industries in England Few of then there
are, when sober and saving, that in old age have
not put aside sufficient to live upon comfortably II
not uxuriously But before this period there
also few who have not passed through scenes
of trial and danger, rarely to come ont of them
unscathed, and often escaping death as it were by
the skin of their teeth" In truth perilous life
is that of the English gamekeepeI; all by of
him next in order for delneation-The Poacher.

THE CUCKOO SONG.

o Kitty Bell, twas sweet, swear
To wander in the spring together,
When buds were blooming everywhere,
And it was golden weather
And down the lanes beside The farm
You rOamed beside me, tripping lightly,
Blushlng you hung upon my arm,
And the small gloved hand pressed tightly!
And the orchis sprang
in the scented meadow,
And the throstle sang
In the greenwood shadow;
And your eyes were bright
With happy dew
Could doubt light
SO divlncly blue,
When you kisSd and sighed
Il Will be true"i
CUckOOi
Thnugh far and wide
The brown bird cried
''CuckOOi cuckoo! cuckoo ~
o Kitty Bell. the cry seemed sweet!
For you were kind, and flowers were sprnging;
The dusty willow in the heat
Its wOolly bells were swinging,
And IN its boil the linuet brown
Finish'd her nest with wool and feather
And ace had thoughts of nesting down
In the farm by the mill, together.
And over the hill
The breeze was blowing,
And the arms of the mil
Kept coming and going;
And who but Love
Was between us two,
When around and above
The filtternce flew,
And as night drew nigh
You swOre TO be true
CuckOOl
heard the cry
From woods hard by
"CQckOO' cuckoo! cuckOO!D
o KITTY Bell, tits spring again,
But all the face of things looks iller;
The nests are built III wood and lane,
Ruf gOu are Ucsipd with the miller
And other lovers kiss ana swear,
While behold in scOrn and pity,
For AL" cry. is false and fair,D
And curse the cuckoo and Kitty.
And over the hill
The breeze is blowing,
And the aims Of the mil
Keep coming and going;
And the hidden bird
is singing anew
The warning heard
When | trusted you;
And ! sicken and sigh,
Withmv heart thrilled through.
Cuckoo!
Wherever lily
hear the cry
"CuckOO! cuckOOi cuckoo"
