A Revere.
BY MRS. JNo. A. PIRTLE.

There are days in ones life that shine
out clear and distinct in memory through
all the intervening years. And now, as
the South wind blows through my open
window, it brings to me the recollection
of one of those golden days of my child
hood.
close my eyes and in imagination
can see again the broad prairie, appar-
emily so level, yet undulatng like the
pillows of the sea. Standing at the foot
of the gradual slope and looking back,
one can only see the bending grass,
which seems to touch the blue, blue 81 Ky.
In fancy, am again with my brother
riding through the tall rank grass that
waves to and fro at every breath of the
breeze that is always blowing there,
We do not follow the broad, dusty
road, but take our own course along the
edge of the stream that flows through
the prairie-its way marked by a thick
growth of trees and shrubs. Here the
grazing cattle seek the shade when the
MONDAY sun is hot; here dwell the
birds, and gaudy dragon-hles, and tiny
water spiders hang their shiny, silken
webs from bank to bank.
Now we stop to open gate that we
may take short cut through the fields.
On every side is the young corn, and in
the midst of it stands a long, low stone
house. Against the house leans num-
Der of fiShing-rods, and below them on a
rude shelf is a row of shining milk pans.
A couple of lean dogs lie on the broad
door-Sill while just outside, under a
spreading cottonwood tree, sits an old
Indian, Sleepily smoking his long-stem-
med pipe.
Beyond the fields we come to a little
spring which has been rudely walled up
that the water may be kept clear and
cool. Over the rocks a wild vine clam
mers, and the tall grass shuts in the tiny
fountain from the burning SUM- Around
its brim grow wild strawberries, and |
would begin to gather them, but there
are many more farther on, so we ride
away till wereach the stream again:
there we draw rein just within tie shade
of the trees.
All, me- how wildly Irecall it ALL
The wide expanse of green, dotted with
nodding prairie lilies and "ladies in
green" the blue June sky hecked with
white, and the moving spots of shadow
that even these light clouds make on the
Sunburnt grass There is M liv;ro

Time has again brought to us the
beginning of another school term,
and the sound of the Juveniles voices
is heard reverberating through the
woods and fields, as they go and re-
turn from school. Parents should
look well to the interest of their chill
dren, and not allow them to remain
away from school on account of some
fiimsy excuse. We are glad to see that
the patrons are taking much more
interest in the education of their chill
dren than has been the case in former
years. This means something. Time
is well spent, that is consumed in
