The Pope slowly Diving.

The latest trustworthy news about
Pope Leo Alll., who again has been
Represented as in o dying condition bv
recent dispatches, is to be found in the
SecolO XIX, o Milan paper, to which its
Rome correspondent wrote Dec. %,
1890:
The strength of the pope is daily de-
creasing. Not that he can be said to be
suffering from any definite illness; still
his life is ebbing away, slowly and In
sensibly. What keeps him up, more
than anything else, is his energy and
his will, still sufficiently strong and Wig
Orous. But those who approach him are
sadly struck with all the symptoms
of speedy bodily dissolution.
The pope's voice has become thin-so
thin; his body, already lean and ang,l-
lar, has become almost transparent; the
eyes only are still vivacious and brill
liant. He looks like shadow, Gun
'ombra," spirit, mournful and sad,
wandering through the grand and SUI
perb solitude Of the vatican. Perhaps
he is suffering over the idea that he has
not done for the church as much as he
could or would have done. He had
grand conceptions, vast schemes; and he
had the mind and the heart to realize
them. But circumstances were stronger
than he. These later years of his pom
tificate have not corresponded to all the
hopes which he entertained in 1878; he
! feels it himself and is gricved at it,
Still, it was less through his fault than
through those of others that his plans
did not succeed.
| Atany rate he continues his receptions.
He always has on his lips his habitual
smile; he does not miss q single ccre-
monY. nd fulfils all the duties of his
high Office. He wants to prove to others
that he is still vigorous; and perhaps he
wants to prove it to himself. But no
body in the vatican entertains any illu-
sion in that respect. Extremely feeble
are the ties which bind him to life, and
no great force will be necessary to cut
them of. Perhaps one morning, when
nobody expects it, the pope may be found
dead. Or perhaps, during one of the
ceremonies which he will attend, the old
man will be seen. dropping his head,
never to lift it up again, upon the arm OF
his holy chair. the ''sedia gestatoria."

PARTED.

Once more my hand will clasp your hand;
Your loved voice shall hear once more;
Hat we shall never zee the land.
Tho pleasant land we knew OF yOre;
Never. on any summer day,
Hear the low music of its streams,
Or wander down the leafy way
That leadeth to the land OF dreams.
Still borne upon the scented air,
The songs of birds rise clear and sweet.
AS when gathered roses there.
And heaped their glories at YOUR feet;
And still the golden pathway lies
AT eve across the western sea,
And lovers dream beneath thuse skies,
Which shine no more for you and me.
No more ah, nevermore! and yet
They seem SO near, those summer days,
When hope was like a Jewel set
10 shine adOwn Time g misty ways.
sometimes dream that mornings light
VIII bring them back to us once more,
And that It's but one long dark night
Since we two parted by the shore.
We parted with soft words and low,
And Farewell till tomorrow said:
From sea and Sky and sunsets glow
"A golden halo round you shed;
Then as a u Went heard you sing,
Haste nee, sweet morrow" Parting thus
how could we dream that life would bring
Not any morrow there for us!
We parted, and that last farewell
It's shadow on our life path cast
And Time relentless barriers fell
belween US and our happy past;
ana now we meet When cares and tears
Have dulied the parting pain,
But never can the weary years
BRING back our golden dreams ag;lir.

at the return of the famous man who
was born on the farm under the hill,
and whose latent greatness nobody sus-

of palpitating maidens in the meeting

have associated himself at once with
Shakespeare and Tupper and the great
literary or ''littery folks" neveremerges

POULTRY PlCkINGS.

To HATCH out late chickens the best
place to make the nests is upon the
ground A more even heat and moist
ure will be secured.
In nearly all cases, chickens should
be separated from the old hens when
ever they are full-feathered Separate
them and let the hens go to laying.
STORE away the sorghum seed, some
millet and sunfiower seed, good bunch
of clover hay, as well as corn, oats and
wheat, to feed the poultry during the
winter.
ONE advantage in buying needed
breeding fowls the latter part of sum
mer or early fall is that better selec-
tion can be had and the fowls be pur-
chased at a lower price.
KEEP the March and early April pull
lets for laying. If given comfortable
quarters they will lay regularly the
greater part of the winter. Late
hatched pullets win rarely lay before
spring.
AFTER the chickens are old enough
to be given a free range the feeding
coops snould all be gathered up and
stored away until needed another
season. A little care in this respect
will save expense.
A LARGE proportion of the poultry
sent to market from now on until cox
weather will be in very poor condi
ton, and this is one leading cause fol
low prices. A little better feed and
care would greatly improve the quail
