Il POEM BY DIR. o. ". HOLMES


The waves unbuild the wasting shore;
Where mountains tow eed the pillows sweep
Yet still their borrowed spoils restore
And raise new empires from the deep.
So while the floods OF thought lay waste
The old domain of chartered creeds.
Its Heaven-appointed tides will haste
10 shape new homes of human needs.
Be ours to work with hearts unchiled
The change TN outworn age deplores;
The legend sinks, but faith shall build
falrer throne Oh new-found shores.
The star shall glow in Western skies
That shone DER Bethlehem hallowed shrine
And once again the temple rise
That crowned the rock of Palestine
Not when the wondering shepherds bowed
Did angels sing their latest song,
Not yet to Israel's kneeling crowd
Did Heavens one sacred dome belong.
Let priest and prophet have their dues,
The Levlte counts but half man,
Whose proud salvation OF the Jews
Shuts out the good Samaritan
Though scattered far the ilocks may stray.
His own the Shepherd still shall claim
The saints who never learned to pray
The friends who never spoke His name.
Dear Master, while we hear Thy voice.
That says, "The truth shall make you free,
Thy servants still, by loving choice,
o, keep us faithful unto Thee

winds of May aud June, which usually
come about the time the grain ia in

In recent discussions, both a, the east

bsrbed wire for farm barriers, muc; was
said by some of the speakers on the
danger to domestic animals, and especially
to young horses, with which the use Of
this wire is attended, and csses were de-
scribed where horses we're badly lscerated

ing these formidable drawbacks, 80 great

and durable are feuees made OF barbed

farmers would not submit to any attempt
to suppress their use.
The question, therefore, comes up: Is
there any way to remove the objection
and to prevent the harm which barbrd
wire causes We answer decidedly in the
affirmative, aud are surprised at the slow
progress which knowledge Of the modes
OF prevention has made. We have used
the wire for years aud never found the
least difficulty or danger. There are
several modes. For smooth, nearly level
fields, pillow deep furrow on each side of
the wire fence, or rather pillow several
furrows, so as to make one broad and
deep one on either side, throwing as
much earth with the pillow as practicable
