FADED BLUEBELLs.
BY MARY A. BARR.

Oh. how easily opens the Book
On these faded flowers, SO thin and brownl
Woes me- for the bonnie little hand
That clasped my hand, as out of the town
And into the fields we went that day,
That last sweet day in the fiowery May.
Happy were we IN the unknown grass,
Pulling the bluebells here ana there;
Never before had he seemed so gay
Oh, never before so sweet and fair!
And the hours flew by, till. like spell,
A sudden shadow of sorrow fell.
one minute all seemed so bright and glad;
The next, ] knew IL was cold and chill.
The child had felt as well as /,
And grown as suddenly sad and still.
''What is it," / said, in strange alarm,
And lifted the boy in my strong right arm
In my strong right arm, close TO my breast,
| carried him hOme-oh, sad, sad way! -
The pale mists rising above the fields,
The sun going down in sOmber gray.
Take care of my flowers" he family said,
And then on my shoulder laid his head.
Twenty years he has been in Heaven;
But he's my boy yet-he's my boy yet.
have kept his tasselled cap and shoes,
And the pretty stockings his mother knit;
His little checked frock, his chair, his ball,
His broken toys-I have kept them all.
But oh, these bluebells are dearer far
withered and frail and sad they look;
But for twenty years they've lain beside
The sweetest promise in all the Book.
See, when go 10 my last long rest,
That you lay these bluebells on my breast.

Good work from human beings, Just as
from machinery, requires good treatment,
and the finer the quality and the greater the
quantity of the work the larger must be the
outlay. Build factories that supply pure air,
and the employees will produce more; but
they will ask for more pay, because they
will consume more food, and can not live on
low wages. A donkey can exist on thistles,
ofcourse, and give donkey return; but a
race horse can not be placed On the same
fare with profit to any one.
A method of preserving meat by causing
the heart of the animal to pump boracic
acid into the tissues has been recently pat
ented. A sheep, for instance, is stunned by
q blow, and blood being withdrawn from the
left jugulsr vein, strong solution of boracic
acid, kept at blood heat, is injected. In
very few minutes the heart of the still living
animal has pumped the anti-septic fluid into
all parts Of the body, and the sheep is then
killed in the ordinary way by the butcher.
The cost is said to be less than sixpense per
sheep, and the meat will keep for FIVE or six
weeks in summer.

A Touching Incident.

When Mrs. Mary A. Livermcre leetured

inquiry:

Hospital at Memphis, during the spriag of

many letters during the war, under similar
circumstances, that she could not recall any
particular case.
