What of the Harvest.

Sadly the girls are beginning to
realize that leap year is waning fast,
and soon the precious privilege ac-
coded the gentler sex once every
four yeafs of bringing backward or
non-cemmittal swains to time by
wooing instead Of waiting to be wooed,
will have gone where the woodbine
twineth. In this golden autumn of
the year OF chance, perhaps it would
not be out Of place to take an account
Of stock, and to ascertain how the
seeds of gentle love sown in the
springtime of the year have measur-
ed out in the garner of matrimony
in the sere of the year. That the
good seed sown has not all been
choked mp by the weeds and tares
the merry twinkling Of marriage
bells and abundance of orange bios
SONS indicate, bat still too many
maidens remain single and all for
lorn. Do these realize the joys Of
the married realm and bliss Of wed.

CALLED HOME.

She has passed away
Like gentle breath,
And her eyes are closed with the slee
of death,
The leaves on the trees will hutter an,
fall,
And the drifting SHOWS will cover all,
But she will peacefully. calmly rest,
Forever happy
By angels blest.
Just in the spring
Of womanhood,
Tender and loving, and wise and good,
All too good for the sinful earth
Only the angels knew her worth,
So they called her unto them.
Decking her brow
With diadem.
Better to smile
When such life
Gives up the battle of earthly strife.
Better to know that her tasks are done,
Trials ended and glory won
Tears are vain, when soul SO bright
Wings its way
To the gates of light.
She has passed away,
But her sweet good will,
Like a fragrant odor, fingers still.
The tender lesson that memory brings
The mantle of patience DER US fngs.
We learn to follow the path she trod,
To be more like her,
Who has gone to God.

London at about four cent. a pound,
and pays 800 per cent profit to the
miller and baker. In some places in

A new cure for dyspepsia has
been discovered by a Southern ply
stefan. The remedy is to take a
spoonful of fine sand after each
meal. This physician has evidently
been studying the habits of the

In England the women use their
tricycies for as many purposes as
men. Housekeepers in the country
ride them into neighboring towns to
do their marketing, and shoppers
make shopping expeditions upon
them. The mother rides out with
her babies, whom she straps to a
basket-like arrangement made for
the purpose, and thus dispcuses
with the necessity ola baby carriage
and young girls find tricycles and
shady lanes very effective aids to
Irritation.

SELECTIONS.
DAISY'S LOVE.

"There !" said Herbert Winfield.
He was sitting on the sunny south
doorstep of the great, fragrant, hay
scented barn, where the sunbeams
lnterlaced each other like slender,
waving threads of gold, and the
houghs of the old button ball tree
moved softly in the SIMMER breeze.
He was a bright-eyed, bright
faced young fellow, dressed in a
cool, white linen suit, with the gilt
ter of a diamond stud at his throat,
and slender, shapely hands, and
close beside him Daisy Wallace sat
with the pretty hands folded on her
lap.
She was daisy by nature as well
as by name-a fresh faced, sunny
haired little creature, whose big,
brown eyes were shaded by long,
dark lashes, and whose nose turned
up at the end the least bit in the
world, giving rOguish piqnancy to
the whole expression Of her coun-
tenance.
f" How did you do 1t 7" said Daisy,
with her scarlet lips apart and
the brown eyes limpid with interest.
"Oh, | managed" said Herbert.
He had split tiny gold dollar In
two and wrought II hole in each
through which he had passed slen-
der blue ribbons.
"Do you like them, Daisy.
avery much"
"Then you shall wear one and /
the other as pledges of our engage
meat."
Daisy blusbed and laughed, as
Herbert suspended the golden trink-
ct round her neck, and then glanced
down at the broad engagement
ring, that circled the forefnger of
her left hand, Herbert's eye following
her look.
lyon do not regret it, Daisy 7"
"Regret it No, Herb.rtr'
"Because, Daisy, you are so
youngw
I" am not too young to know my
own mind, Herbert" she said, with
an assumption of dignity which was
very pretty to look upon. ~ was
sixteen last week ~
Sixteen! Daisy Wallace felt all
the dignity of her mature years.
Sixteen and engaged!
And they sat there, under the
shadow of the button ball tree, with
the fragrance of the new hay coming
ever and anon to their senses, talk
ing of the house which was one day
to be theirs, and even deciding, in
boy and girl fashion, what was to be
the color of their carpets, and the
special flowers to be planted in the
garden, and even the pattern of the
antique furniture which was to dec
crate Herbert's library!
"How foolish we are " he said, at
length, starting up with laugh.
f" Yes, but it is very pleasant to be
foollshw Daisy answered, smiling
and blushing in the same instant.
Yet, engaged lovers though they
were, Daisy had a woman's coquet-
fish little instincts, and in the course
OF time they wrought trouble be-
tween che young hearts!
Il don't like 1t, Daisy!n Herbert
said, stoutly.
"That's because you are SO old
fashioned IN your ideas" said Daisy,
erecting her slight figure, to look as
dignified as possible. All the girls
are delighted with Mr.. Sykesleigh.'
"All the girls are not engaged to
be married " retorted Herbert, bit
terly.
"Does it follow that because am
engaged | am to be prisoner ~
"Daisy, you know better than
that"
You are too exacting, Herbert. l

For THE HERALD.

"lIZPAH"
Dear friend, i'll could come to youto.night,
And lay my hand upon your tired brow,
And say some gentle, sympathzing word,
Tender and soft and low;
Ill could only take your hand in mine
And let my tears fall on it like the rain,
/ then would feel that was blest indeed
To be allowed to share and soothe your pain.
1t is not much that dearest friends can do,
Each heart must bear the burden of its grief /;
Must tread its separate wine press all alene,
Nor can most anxious love bring quick relief.
But tender hands can sometimes roll stone
Out of the path the weary feet must tread,
Can lift little of the burden pressing
So heavily on aching heart and head.
If 1 might only stand where could watch
And take each chance to do these simple
things,
To drop little sweetness in the bitter cup,
To give some slow, sad hours swiftcr wings.
But this dear task is given to other hands
Better and stronger far than mine could be,
And can only stand apart and pray the Lord
To 4" watch forever between thee and me-"
awhile absent from each other" we may be {;
May lie send light upon your;path and give
Unto His angels charge concerning thee"
May give you strength to meet each trying day
With brave unfaltering heart,
And lead and keep you, ever in His sight,
Although from mine apart.
For me, ask that may patience have
Each daily duty faithfully to do,
Remembering 8" tbs not needtul to be happy
But only ncedful to be brave and true"
trust that ere long may meet and tell you
Much that my faltering lips refused to say,
And yet, thought did my simple duty,
But see things with clearer eyes to day.
Forgive me, twas false idea of duty
That made me doubtful and almost unl.ind to
you;
Bat now | see that you ,Eercnearcr light
Than l, and far mere just and true.
How my heart aches tor you, God only knows,
Or how long to see your face tonight;
But can only say, God bles. and keep you,''
And" MI2PAH," and Good night"

each family gives towards supporting
religion TO be ten dollars, which is
above the average rather than below,
the r. G. church would obtain $1,000;
the NJ. E.church 5000; the PIE. church
$500; the Congregational church $500;
the Universalist church $2O0; the Bap-
fist church Sl20.-Total 5000.
We see from this calculation only
the Roman Catholics could give a re-
spectacle salary to their clergy The
ministers of the other bodies could on
ly live on penuniOus salaries unless
they were made up from missionary
funds. What Christians in America
need is to unite in finding and sus-
tanning the littest, the purest, the most
unchanging and most reasonable of al
moral and religious instruction. As it
is now, it looks as if bombshell had
fallen into the Christian camp and di-
vided the church into splinters. And
thus it is throughout the country.
