TRE FARMRR,s s WIFE.

Tho east is gray with n flush of rose.
Birds are singing the world awake,
The farmers wife has no time to pause,
She has the early meal 10 make;
For well she knows on this summer day
Men are far too busy to walt
When they are ready 20 cart the hay
And the wagons stand at the gate.
Obi but the flowers in the garden are fair!
And ohl but the wind is cool and sweeti
She has her daily duty and care
To keep her busy, both hands and feet
Perhaps FOR a moment her heart does turn
To the shady wood and the ripping brook,
And the twelve O'Clock dinner 20 cook
Perhaps in the warm afternoon. once more
Something within did strongly plead
For the rocking-ch by the open door.
Aud a pleasant paper to read;
But men are hungry among the hay;
Weary workers must still be fed:
She gets the -four and the kneading-tray,
And she cheerfully makes the bread.
She is hot and tired, when sweet and still
The moon comes up IKE a psaceful psalm;
She feels her heart 10 its beauty thrill,
She longs to sit in its holy calm:
But now tho children must go to bed:
Who but mother can hear their prayers1
Their little torn coats wait needle and thread
Oil these are the sweetest of all her cares
She sits with smile on her weary face,
The toll of the day is counted not;
Love gives to labor tender grace,
Hurry and heat are quite forgot.
No need to pity the patient heart
Missing the pomo and pride OF life,
For hers Is a wOmnn's noblest part
Honored Mother, and trusted Wife.

Hr. Jones Hampers With Science.

Mr.. Jones is staying at home for a
few days, and his face is so covered
with bits of court-plaster ingeniously
cemented on that it resembles the map
of an unbuilt prairie town. 1t all hap
pened in the cause of science, but Jones
says it hurts just as much.
He was reading up electricity; Mrs
Jones was peacefully darning Willie's
socks with her mouth full of balls of
yarn and darning needles, assorted
sizes, when Jones suddenly laid down
his hook and said:
Electricity is a wonderful thing"

Mr., Jones stepped into the closet

Kites a Penny Apiece.

On the roof of a five-story east-side
tenement last night boy was sitting
astride of the wooden frame to which
the clothes-line was attached. On q
chimney little way off was another
boy. On the peak of the little structure
above the scuttle in the roof third was
posed. A fourth leaned as far out
from the front wall as he could without
falling in the street below. Other roofs
all over that part of the city had other
boys in like positions. All of them
held strings in their hands, and up
against the clouds in the east hundreds
of kites were wriggling and .darting
around like tadpoles.
"Where did you get that kitep" was
asked of the boy on the gable above the
scuttle.
Bought it, said he.
"How much did it cost?''
Gent. Say, have you got any

1.-The penny KITE said dealer, lis
simple affair, but those unfamiliar
with the business think it marvel of
cheapness. They are all alike in size
and shape, but differ in color. The kite
consists of piece of paper and three
slender sticks. The piece of paper is
from one-eighth to one-sixth of full
sheet, ream of which will weigh forty
pounds. The paper costs seven cents
pound, so the piece for kite costs
about one-sixteenth of a cent. Some
times the paper is printed with pict-
ure of a horse or a yacht, or some other
fancy cut. This adds twenty-five cents
a thousand to the cost, but gives va
riety for the boys to choose from.
The paper. cut to the right size, is
piled on a table on one side of a girl.
Two piles of sticks are at her other
hand, and pot of paste and brush
before her. She spreads out piece of
the paper and runs the paste-brush
around the edge. Then two of the
longer sticks are laid on in the form OF
an X. Across the cross of the X a
shorter one is laid. Then the pasted
edges of the paper are folded over, en-
closing the ends of the sticks. The
completed kite is laid away to dry.

of cent, but they sell no better than
the others. There is fair margin of
