THE OLD FARM.

Out in the meadows the farm house lies,
Old and gray, and fronting the west /;
Many swallow thither flies,
Twittering under the evening skies:
In the old chimney she builds her nest.
All! how the sounds make our old hearts
swell!
Send them again on an eager quest {;
Bid the sweet winds of heaven tell
Those we have loved so long and well,
To come again to the dear old nest.
When the gray evening, cool and still,
Hushes the brain and heart to rest,
Memory comes with joyous thrill,
Brings the young children back at will,
Call them all home to the gray old
nest.
Patient we wait till the golden morn
Rise on our WEAKNESS halt confessed !;
Till with the chill and the darkness
gone,
Hope shall rise with another dawn,
And another day to the sad old nest.
Soon shall we see all the eager east
Bright with the day star, at heavens
behest;
Soon from the bondage-of clay released,
Rise to the palace, the kings own feast,
Birds of flight from the last years
nest.

EYERGREENS.

Mr.. w. D. Boynton communicates to
the American Garden an article on
planting eyefgreens, which should inter-
est asc.gIZreat. many petsons, for there are
but few .vaziisEiiss Of trees Ehich are more
beautiful tAsn sOups Of balsanis pines,
and frs. and they are among the most
likely to thrive after transplanting.
Asto the season for transplanting, says
Mr.. Boynton, either fall or spring is
coed. The when Is not so important as
the how. lean little toward the spring
planting, however. as the ground is then
little more moist, and no other vege-

RrXant's lender Conscience.

A very pretty anecdote is told of the
late William Cullen Bryant. the poet,
BY a former associate in his newspaper
office, which illustrates. the good mans
simplicity of heart. Says the narrator
''One morning. many years ago, after
reaching the Office and trying in vain to
begin work, he turned to me and re-
marked:
- II cannot get along this morning
- why notP' I asked.
q O. he replied, Il have done wrong.
When on my way here q little boy fly
ing kite passed me. The string Of the
kite having rubbed against my face, /
seized It and broke 1t. The boy lost his
kite. but I did not stop to pay him fori
/ did wrong I ought to have paid
him."

Srap-Rooks,

The value of scrap book cannot be
appreciated or understood by a person
who has not taken the pains to have one.
History is now being made by our daily,
weekly, monthly and quarterly papers,
and periodicals; and by a careful selec-
ton the average reader may be able to
get in a convenient form the most valu-
able articles. The clippings should con-
sist of poetry, biography, history. essays
and speeches. Great care should be
exercised in the selection of poetry; for
most of our newspaper poetry is mere
doggerel and is not worth preserving.
Romances may prOftably be left out.
4 peep into u scrap-boOk will reveal
to the stranger the taste and judgment
of the owner. Who has not seen the
selections of some sentimental young
lady or gentleman? The poetry, the
little romances and the silly stories are
most conclusive evidences of inability to
Judge well the quality of current lltera-
ture- Each production shows the mind
of the person selecting it. Every article
that finds it's way into ones scrap-boOk
should be placed there, not because he
agrees with its conclusions, but because
he admires Its stvle, and sees it in an inn
portant part of the whole of modern his
tory. -
Charles Reade, who recently died.,
was & hrm believer in scrap books, and
had an immense number Of newspaper
clippings, properly ipdexed. from which
he obtained much Of the materials for his
stories. DIR. Taimaye finds many Illus
tFations for his sermons, In n6wspaper
articles end Heuyg " ard Beec6sE hiss
trunks full of old Spapers:s President
Garfield drew many OF the anecdotes
and incidents with which he graced his
speeches, from large collection Of
scrap-books, and Girarden, the great
French editor, had whole{ rooms filed
with indexed clippings. They furnish
ed source. of information that could
not well be supplied from other places.
Would it not be well for all of as TO
keep scrap-book.-[Prof. Nihart.

THE HEALTH CRANK.

The health crank is IL man who is
sorely afflicted with chronic theories
regarding the proper way to promote
longevity. He lives, works, eats and
sleeps and bOres people according to
certain rules that he las adopted for
his guidance and their annoyance.
He is sick half his days from the effect
of what he eats and drinks. and from
the exercise he takes to encourage his
health, while he shOrtens the lives OF
his friends by urging them To become
cranks. even as he is a crank. He is
never free from some iniirmity, and ii
he can acquire two intirnitics at once,
his dream OF Heaven is almost realized.
AS soon as he gets one weak part of his
system renovated, some other part
breaks down, and he las to go to- work
On that. Ii may be mentioned inciden-
tally that he never does anything for
head, which is the weakest part about
him. His blood troubles him much.
He drinks acidluOus beverages to make
it thin, and lies on his back, with his
head towards the North, to- make it
circulate properly. When he mag
ines that his liver is acting in Il repre-
hensiLle manner, he stimulates it, or
props 1t up with horseback ride before
breakfast, and if his stomach does not
perform its functions with accuracy
and dispatch, he floods it with cold
water before going to bed or irrigates it
with Il sedlitz powder the moment he
gets up in the morning. He Is always
doing or taking something to head off
some intirlnitY. Anticipated ills troub
lie him most. His favOrite maxim is
that about the ounce of prevention and
the pound al>s1 a. half OF cure. When
he is not engaged certifying his system
with gFalIanl bread or oatmeal, ne is

ture, however, that he Furnishes him

soaking about the whole, drawing it up
around the trunk and tying firmly. In
this shape they can be loaded into a
wagon box that has thick layer of
straw in the bottom, and taken home.
They should be set out at once, watered

The reader will understand that this
way of taking up can only be praCtiosd

can be taken home and set out in few.

CYCLONES OF 1883.
The Aerial Disturbances Which Made the Last
Year Memorable.

A Chicago map publisher has gone
into the cyclone business, and the re
suit is a map showing the locality, di-
rectiOn and extent of the cyclones, or
tornadOes, of 1883. Dakota had one,
but it was a long one, moving south
easterly and bending to the nOrthward.
Southern Minnesota had two of a cres-
cent shape, the general direction being
eastward. Nebraska managed to get
along without any. Kansas had five
and a half, generously sharing one
good one with Missouri, although the
latter State had four OF her own aud
big one borrowed from Iowa expressly
for the occasion. Iowa started four,
but concluded it could get along with
less and sent one south into Mo. and
the other east into Southern WiScOn-
sin and n Northern Illinois. Wisconsin
had four of her own make and two
imported ones, one of the latter manu-
featured at Rockford, ILL.,, jumping
from Racine across Lake Michigan tO
Grand Haven. Central Southern
Michigan was cOntented with one.
Indiana had only one, but it made u
belt from Terre Haute east clean across
the State. AS usual, Illinois is in the
lead. She started and took care of no
less than fourteen, received the force
OF big one from Iowa, and invented
one OF the biggest of all-that which
wiped out IL portion Of Racine, and
ricOchetted over the lake to the farther
shore Chicago Tribune.

A Soldiers Bright Idea,

One day soon after Pope's defeat at
second Bull Run and ChantilIy, a pri-
vate soldier belonging to an Ohio regi-
ment Sought an interview with his
Captain, and announced that he had a
plan for military campaign. which
must certainly result in crushing out
the rebellion. The officer very natu-
rally inquired for particulars, but the
soldier refused to reveal them, and
asked for a chance to lay his plans be-
fore Pope himself. After some delay
he was given a pass to headquarters.
He did not get to see Pope, but after
the chef of staff had cOaXed and prom
Used and threatened for a quarter Ofan
hour the Buckeye stood up and replied:
"Well, sir, my plan is for John Pope
and Bob Lee to swap commands, and
five don't lick the South inside ofsix-
ty days you may shoot me for patent
hayfork swindler!"
When he returned to camp he was
naturally asked what success he met
with, and he rue fully replied:
"WalI, they had plan of their
own"
What was it?''

me for mile and half."-C Detroit
