The Present and the Future-Anal0gy.

Once we were living in house, with
the owners threat to sell hanging over
us. If only it had been ours we
could have felt Settled" but it was
not nor could be, for it's price was
above our ability. Should we beautify
the grounds or should we not? At
times we felt that to do so would, per-
haps, be labor lost, for too soon might
follow notice to leave again it SEEM
ed impossible to live longer without
the many little, conveniences and at
fractions that 60 to make up home
such as should surround growing chill
dren. Even if the place must be CIV
en- up it seemed best to improve the
time, uncertain though it might be-.
We will get the personal benefit of the
labor and interest spent upon 1.-THE
passing good-and others if not our
selves may receive the reward of the
work, 80 it was determined that we
should redeem the time.
Being in meditatfve mood oDe day
an analogy sprung into mind, the
similarity between our present and our
future interests. The soul too is ten
ant at will, liable at any moment to be
served with notice to quit, writ of
ejectment, more peremptory, indeed,
than the summons of any landlord.
But because this is true should we sit
with folded hands waiting to receive
these orders? Were not the time bet
ter spent in making life beautiful, in
helping others over their rough places,
In comforting the weary-hearted by
showing thoughtful kindnesses, in do
ing all that is possible to make less un-
happy those about us? 1t is so easy to
talk, it is so easy to write, it is so hard
to do the very best at every moment
who does? After-thought is but folly,
fore-thought alone is the true wisdom,
for what good to a drowned man are
a score of rescuing parties-a slender
rope at the right time would have saw
ed him, a thousand physicians now
cannot revive him. And so it matters
not whether we live out our three score
years and ten--while we do live let us
try to do our best in every hour we
ive-let the most despairing pick up
the broken threads of life, and weave
as bright web as may be-the past
may not be wholly repaired perhaps,
but let the future copy fairer pattern.
-Noa0 and then.

Hearken, children. to the Saviour!
He is calling you to-day;
From the paths of sin and folly,
Turn your rowing feet away:
Drink ye Of the living fountain,
Live with Christ for evermore
In that many-mansion dwelling
On that bright supernal shore.
He Ia calling, He is calling,
He Is calling, little children, why delay!
He Is calling, He is calling,
He is calling little children every day.
He is calling little children
From the barren helds OF Sins
Blessing them, he bids his shepherds
Tenderly to take them,
Shield them from approaching danger,
Shelter them from every harm,
Lead them all to living pastures,
Rest them meath guarding arm.
He is calling little children,
To engage with heart and hand,
In the tending Of His vineyard,
In the tilling of His land;
Though their little hands are tender,
Yet some work they all may find,
For the Lord has always plenty
Work to do Of every kind.
When their toiling here is over,
he will take them home to rest
In that many.mansion dwelling
or the faithful and the blest;
There with Jesus Christ their Saviour,
They shall! dwell for evermore,
Free from labor. sin and sorrow,
On that bright supernal shore.

To get good crop of cabbage after
early potatoes, it is only necessary to
have good, strong, healthy plants to be-
gin with, says T. +. Baker, of New Jer-
sey, in American Agriculturist.
To obtain such plants, SOW the seed in
drills. not less than one foot apart, and
thinly in the row, the last week of May
or the first week in June. One ounce of
seed will produce 1000 plants, and if
properly cultivated ON good soil will pro-
duce the best plants in thirty days or by
July /. After digging. the potato ,patch
should be freshly plowed, and the soil
thoroughly pulverized.
Mr.. Bakers plan is then to open fur
rows four feet apart and apply 500
pounds of some good fertilizer per acre
in these rows, covering with a corn COW
ercr, and set the plants three feet apart
on these ridges. Cover them deeply,
even if the leaves are partly covered.
Should the soil be dry or a dry spell be
likely to follow, tramp around each
plant after setting. 1t is best to lift the
plants with a digging fork rather than
pull them from tho seed bed, especially
if at all dry. Last year he sowed both
Flat Dutch cabbage and cauliilower seed
on June 1, had fine plants to set out
June 90, and had both cabbage and eau
liilower ready for market Sept. %.

In France immense quantities of as
paragus are grown between the vines in
the vineyards, the plants being put out
singly wherever there is room, and in
time fine clumps are formed. In Eng
land many acres of asparagus are plant
ed in the breaks between the rows of
young orchard trees, much as fruit bushes
are often grown, and very profitable
crops are cut from them every season.
On the fertile soils round Cheltenham,
for instance, asparagus is very simply
and well grown, the produce, if more
pains were taken in blanching it, being
equal to that obtained from France Near
London, notably in Essex, a row of as
paragus is frequently planted between
the fruit bushes, and of the two crops
proves the more profitable.
These facts are mentioned by an Eng
liSh writer in order to suggest To ANA
tcurs and others where they, too, may
grow this valuable vegetable without en-
croaching on their limited gardc.i ground.
1t is almost useless to plant asparagus in
old fruit quarters, where it would not
have fair play; but supposing young
bushes are put out, or have not long been
planted, four feet apart in rows five feet
apart, single plants might well be put
midway between the bushes. and a row
between the lines of bushes or trees, as
the case may be. These may remain un-
disturbed for many years, and if duly
manured from the surface will never fail
to be remunerative.

The Pig ON Dairy Farms.

The pig is an important appendage of
the butter day. He is machine for
working up the perishable by-products
into a marketable article. He used to
be kept over year and killed when
eighteen months old or more. But it is
found that more money and but little
less weight, with considerably less trouble
and expense, result from having him
farrowed in the winter or early in the
spring, and killing him when eight or
ten months old. The larger he gets the
moro it costs to put pound of pork in
him, after he reaches tho weight of forty
to sixty pounds. Through his means
skinned milk and buttermilk have a
value of about twenty-five cents per 100
pounds; without him much Of it would
go to waste. Give him clover pasture
and a little corn, with all the sweet
SKINNED milk he wants, and he will live
contented, if not happy, grunt his salts

boy. He can't help it, and we have all
done the same thing ourselves. But how
about tho mother? How long do you
think great strong. burly man would
stani this sort of thing?
You come home at night and your wife
says to you: Bobby has been misbehav-
Ing again today, but, dear, ! guess after
all you'd better let him off this once"
and what do you suppose the young ras-
cal has done? oh, nothing very much.
He has only taken the five young kittens
that appeared few days ago and buried
them alive in the back yard. Now, how
long, my friend, could you stand this
sort of thing2 And yet your wife, pale,
delicate creature that she is, would have
fit if Bobby were out of her sight for
more than twelve hours. Let us stop a
moment and think of what is going to
become of all these pretty girls who have
had their heads stuffed full of grammar
and mathematics and Latin verbs--what
are they going to be? Wives? Yes, and
mothers, some of them; but tell me, my
friends, can you bring this future that
stretches out for u woman from COM
mencement day to the end--can you
bring it down to the narrow limits Of a
wedding ring2
How about theol maids, then? Now,
let me whisper word in your ear. As
matter of fact, marriage isn't the only
thing q woman thinks about. How
many old maids are there who are old
maids from choice? Nine out of every
ten. "How do you know" some one in
the crowd shouts out; you're not an
old maid yourself" That is so, but. my
young friend, you haven't a maiden
aunt. have you? Come, own up now,
like man. Well, you don't know any
thing about it. My son, a maiden aunt
follows right close after a mother and
grandmother in boys heart, and the
boy generally knows how many times
she has said "No' to the most important
question in woman's life.
Let us take one farewell look at these
smiling faces before the curtain falls for
ever on the last scene of school life. They
have got through the preface of the look
of the world. Tomorrow they will be-
gin on the first chapter, and as the bell
rings and they fade away from our sight,
let us send forth q wish that the book
may have peaceful and happy ending.
