a LOVE SONG TO A WIFE.

rTjs the beautiful love breathing cleaning hour
And the breeze is rocking each slumbering
flower,
Lovers are breathing their tender VOWS.
Sly lids are dropping DER radiant eyes,
And the air is full of delightful signs;
Cheeks glow and dimple, and red lips part
And, oh how fondly heart answers heart
For very gladness young pulses sing
All, love is a wildering, witching thing;
An exquisite, tremulous, heaven-born stain
That thrills the soul with delicious pain.
ne have been lovers for forty years;
o, dear cheeks, faded and worn with tears,
What an eloquent tale of love We tell
Your roses are dead but love ye well
o pale brow. shrined in soft. silvery hair,
Crowned with LIES sorrow and lined with care,
Let NE read by the light of the stars above
Those dear records Of faithful love.
All, fond, fond eyes of my own true wife
He have shone so clear through my Checkered
life,
Ye have shed such joys on its thorny way,
That cannot think ye are dim to-day.
Worn little hands, that have toiled SO long,
Patient and loving, and brave and strong
We Will never tire, we will never rest,
Until ye are crossed on my darlings breast.
O warm heart throbbing so close to mine!
Time only strengthens such love as thine,
And proves that the hottest love doth last
When summer and beauty and youth are past

CLASSIFICATION OF STATES. - Kentucky
used to be classed as q Southern State. A
classification under the head of the Mis-
sissippi States, " said to be adopted in some
modern school Biographies, is not gener-
ally accepted. 1t is curious arrangement
at this late day which classes New York,
Pennsylvania and New jersey among the
Middle States, and Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois as the West The grouping
proposed by the Census office is into North
Atlantic, South Atlantic, Northern Central.
Southern Central and Western States By
this arrangement the Western States begin
about the t94th degree of west longitude
Colorado being the eastermost of the West
ern States. The line of the Allegheny
or Appalachian Mountains is the general
divide between the South Atlantic and the
Southern Central States The southern
boundary of Pennsylvania divides the
North Atlantic from the South Atlantic
States, and its western boundary is the line
between North Atlantic and Southern
Central.

Greece.

Greece, including the area cedcd in 1881
comprises about $4,000 square miles of ter,
ritory, inhabited by about two million
people. The population is thus only about
eighty to the square mile. OF the total
area one-half may be treated as unculti-
waited Though much of it is capable of cul-
tivation), consisting of pasture lands and
mountains one-seyenth consists of forests,
while the balance, five-fourteenths of the
whole, is cultivated Tobacco, cotton,
vines, cereals and olives form the principal
crops. There are no manufactures of any
importance, and the prosperity of the
country may therefore be said to be
wholly dependent on agricultme-that
is, on the fineness of the season
and the maintenance of the price
of produce. Last year, for instance,
the currant crop, which is export
ed to an average value of nearly
$4,000 900, was ruined by excessive rain,
and the actual export is SAID to have been

less than the average by nearly one-half
Olive oil is exported to the average value
! Of f250,000, and the only other exports of
Importance are wine, zinc and lead The
average gross values of imports and e2-
| ports amount, roughly speaking, to q ,000,-
oUO and e., 100000, respectively Sixty-two
per cent. OF the whole population are en-
gagged either in agriculture or in the care
of hocks and herds; but the inhabitants
are too few to extend the area of cultiva-
ton and TO poor to make the most even
OF the land occupied. The soil, which is
rich in many parts, would easily support
double or treble the present number if
the methods of agriculture were improved
and more capital put into the land.
Between 1870 and 1879 the population in
creased at the rate of 1.69 per cent. per

cipailY in the towns and | understand that
the increase in the interior has been inSig |
nihcant. Nor is it likely to be otherwise |
until the means of internal communiCa- |
ton have been considerably augmented. |
1t has been conclusively proved, if proof |
of such self-eyident truth were needed, !
that, given population mainly dependent |
on agriculture, nothing is so certain to i'm
prove its condition as the development of |
roads and railways But until the last few
yeas this axiom was unrecognized in
Greece. There was only one line of rail
way-from the Pir;euS to Athens-and
roads were practically non existent. The
tracks that did duty for roads were in so

THE PARADISE OF SKATERs.-Holland is
the paradise of skaters, its highways being
canals which are covered with ice nearly
half the year. The ladies there go shop
ping on skates boys skate to and from
school, older members of the family go to
church on skates the pOstman delivers
his letters, and the doctor visits his patients
on them, and even the solemn pastor moves
on skates when he visits his Pensioners.
Dairymaids skate to town with full pals OF
milk of which not drop is spilled, and
full basket Of eggs in each hand. During
the Spanish invasion several victories were
won by the native soldiers, who, on skates,
suddenly moved on the forces of Alva, and
as quietly retired to their own camp. For
a period Of more than 400 years the sol
diers have been trained to perform evolu-
tons on skates.-[ Hartford Post

CosT OF SICKNESS. Statistics reveal g
somewhat startling tale Of the cost of i'll
ness to 4 nation, and of the loss Of valua-
bic time, opportunity and money which
even a small modicum Of i'll health entails
Thus it is calculated that the ordinary sick
ness of England and Wales annually costs
the country 100000 weeks work-that
is, as much work as 20,0OO,0O0 of people in
good health would accomplish in week
Put III another way, this amount may be
stated as equaling one-fortieth part of the
work done yearly by the whole population
between 16 and 65years of age, II any ar
guments were required to show that good
health means pecuniary gain, the above
fact would afford such proof.
