How thou didst cool my fevered

Dear spring down in the dell
On many a golden summer hour
I've laid me down to rest,

Ofblossoms on my breast.

Oh! | remember Welt
The messy rocks. the velvet ground,
The spring down in the dell
Thy waters sparklcd in my cup,
And flashed along the rim,
And when | raised it gladly up,

Far sweeter than the Samian wire-=
Oh! | remember WE'LL

thine,
Dear spring down in the delft
And, nlirrored in thy mimic glass,
I've watched the aftless grace,
OF many a dark eyed village lass,
As she did kiss thy face,
And | have envied thee thy lot
Oh! | remember well!

family Of children wrote as follows:
j have found ID to be universe
fact without exception, that those
scholars Of both sexes and of 81
ages who have access to newspapers
at home, when compared with tho 81
who have not, are:
/ Better readers, excellent in pro
nunciation, and consc quently read
more understandingly.
They are better spe Hers and
define words with ease and Gccura
cy.
They obtain practical knowl
edge in geography in almost hall
the time it requires OF others as the
newspapers have them acquainted
with tho location oil the important
places of nations, their government
and doings on the globe.
A They are better grammarians
for having become so familiar with
every variety of style in the news
paper form, from the commonplace
advertisement TO the finished and
classical Grafton of statesmen; they
more readily comprehend the mean
ing of the text, and consequently
analyze it's construction with accu-
raey.
They write better compositieHs
using better language, containing
more thoughts-more clearly and
correctly Oxpl essed.

years been readers OF newspapers

sive knowledge upon great variety
Of subjects and expressing their
views with greater fluency, clearness
and correctness. Elk.
