THE HAMMOCK'S MISSION.
How Two Lives We're Severed and Two
Hearts Fore yer Blasted.

HOW Two Lives We're Severed and Two
Hearts Fore yer Blasted.
1t was but a shy, retiring hammock
covered with dust; it had lain for
months in secluded garnet where the
silence was broken only by the scam
pering of the mice or the noisy odor of
the cockroach. Yet this hammock had
mission in life, and when the hired
man came up and yanked it forth from
its lair of old linament bottles and
seatless chairs it knew that it's time
for action had come.
Soon was it oscillating gently be-
meath the shadows of the great oak
trees, awaiting the coming of Algernon
and Mabel, who were soon seen stroll
ing down from the front porch. Soon
the folds of the hammock no longer
swung listless. Three hundred pounds
of avoirdupois is likely to take any
trace of fstlessness out of the most in
dolent hammock.
The turtle doves ceased their gentle
music, listened and hung their heads in
shame to find that after years of prac-
tice they had not mastered the first
principles of the art of cooling. A
single star came out twinkled for a
few moments, then hid itself behind
II moonbeam, discouraged at finding
itself out-dazzled by the love-lit luster
of two pairs of eyes.
Suddenly the hammock's over
strained nerves gave way. A single
report like the swapping of a toy pis-
toll, and mother earth received tow of
her children on her bosom.
"Confound that! + I'LL ham,
mock, said Algernon simply, yet
poured his whole soul into those few
| words.
Algernon,I can never be any thing
to you more than a sister," she said,
gently, as she pulled her back hair out
of Algernon's coat collar.
That was all.
Two hearts were severed and two
hearts forever blasted.
The mission of the hammock was
fulfilled. Merchant IrdVeler,

pilgrimage. It was mid-April when she
opened her eyes languidly upon the room
where for weeks she had moaned and
tossed in pain and muttered in delirium
She looked a moment at the pleasant faced,
haired lady who sat at work in low
chair; at tall dark man with an
empty sleeve, who stood by the lady's
side; her gaze wandered over the appoint
ments of the room, and then the eyes
closed again. and she sank into restful
sleep The lady, who had watched her in
silence, rose and bent over her a moment,
and then, crossing to her son, said: s'The
danger is over; she will recover. When
she wakes again she will be conscious.
truly hope that, as all our inquiries have
failed to discover any friend who was in
terested in heror waiting her coming, so
no unpleasant results or serious shock
may follow when she learns of her long
sickness and detention Kate did get
well, but her recovery was very slow.
When good Mrs. Gardiner, with kindly in
tonation and many motherly caress,
told her how she came to be among
strangers, the tears that flowed were tears
of gratitude and thankfulness. The kind
ness and devotion shown to her, a
stranger, touched her deeply, and won up
on her loving nature. She grew accus-
toned to the coming and going of ALEX, !"
as his mother called him, simply as if he
were yet boy, and received with glad
humility the kindnesses that were showered
on her. Little by little she told the story of
her life, her love and pilgrimage. The at

FOR SWEET MEMoRYs SAKE.

o blossoms Of poesy, spring from the dust
The dust whose long slumber Loves cry can
not break;
FIJI the breath of the world with the fragrance
of trust,
AS we garland their graves for sweet Memo

With trust in the Master, who tenderly led
The way through the darkness and storm OF
the strife,
Who took the brave souls to His Heaven, and
said;
BY the blood of these martyrs the Nation
hath life.
Oh, never the angels that swept from the skies,
Above the strewn field at she closing of day,
Untangled flag to behold its device,
Or paused to discover the blue from the
gray.
osanguine South roses, as red as their blood,
o Northern bloom, white as their purpose
was true,
Wherever We smile in the sunlight of God,
In the soft air OF peace and the rain and the
dew,
Ye are tribute to them and the glory they won,
And little can story or song give or take;
BE the fondest word said and the fairest deed
done
AS we garland their gra6es for sweet Mem

mos phere about her seemed so restful; she
felt such strange content in her help less
ness and dependence that she began te ask
herself if she were too content; if she had
grown disloyal to the dead. 1t was ore Of
the things that troubled her, that the past

dead and keep it with her as living thing.
Now Ii was buried Often she tried to

Perhaps, she thought when go away, the
old feeling will return. But did she wish

to look for and expect There was
mighty magnetism about the man. He was
so courteous, SO unobtrusive. He seemed
to divine her wishes and ministered as
thoughtfully as gently to her wants. One
day he had dropped a bouquet of her favorite
roses on the coverlid of the bed. How
did he know the flowers she best loved!n
But this was the South; this man was
one of his murderers. Nay, she
had been unjust; wrong he may
have been, but never wicked. So she vexed
herself with question and answer as she
strove to reconcile the past and present of
her life. Strange, that we will not be con-

at reconciling the differences of her. dis

Roosts for Chickens.

The best roosts for chickens are light
trestles about eighteen inches high.
These can be made of inch strips about
four feet long, and as many as are
necessary. 1t is not best TO have
roosts too high. The roosts should be
made movable for convenience in
cleaning. Above all things care should
be taken with the nests. Fresh straw
should be put in whenever the house is
cleaned. 1t is not difficult or long
task to clean chicken-house. The
principal thing is to get in the way of
doing it as other chores are done.
There is no half way that is worth
doing in the chicken business. Either
a considerable brood should be kept
and proper care given them and thus
make them pay, or none at al should
! be kept. 7. Witness.

FOWLS AND FRUIT.

A Word in Favor of Combining the Cul
ture of Small Fruits and Fowls.
Every one who undertakes the care
of poultry soon finds how much they
suffer from cold, and how their pro-
duce is reduced, or stopped off alto
gether, if exposed to it. And yet heat
is a greater trial to them; they need
some summer screen. The shade of
trees and. bushes, with good dust
wallow in the shadiest spot. is great
aid and comfort, and the trees are
doubly benefited by the arrangement
first in a free supply of effective
manure and suppression of weeds;
and, secondly. by the destruction of
many insect enemies. Plum frees do
better in a poultry yard than else
where, and tall rows of raspberries
and blackberries flourish there with
little care or outlay. Sometimes. how
ever, it is found necessary to shut the
fowls off from these by wire netting or
otherwise, just when ripening fruit.
We have found no summer shelter so

an asparagus bed convenient Of access
after the cutting season is oyer and
growth shot up. With roomy runs of
such kind there is little or no dam
ger of disease among the feathered
took. Women folk, desiring OPEN
air occupation, will find this culture
of small fruits and poultry combined
capable of yielding sure and not
illiberal profit, if a piece of good land
can be obtained near town, and the
resolve be carried out to sllow no
weeds at all ON it. After the ground
is once planted. the after work is light;
but there will constantly be something
to do.-Cor. ~ T. Tribune.
