THREE TREES.

The pine tree grew in the wood.
1apering straight and high;
Stately and proud it stood,
Black-grean against tho sky,
Crowded 30 close. it sought the blue,
And ever upward 1t reached and grew,
The oak tree stood in the field,
Beneath it dozed tho herd
IL gave to the mower a shield,
IL gave a home to the birds.
Sturdy and broad, 1t guarded the farms,
With its brawny trunk and knotteu arms.
Tho apple tree erew by the wall.
Ugly and crooked and black,
Bnt 1t knew the gardeners call.
And the children rode on it's back,
1t scattered its blossoms upon tho air.
1t covered the ground with ~fruitage fair.
'Now, hey said the Pine, "for the wood!
Como, lt> Q with tho forest band,
Our comrades will do you good,
And tall and straight you will stand"
And he swung his bonghs to a witohing sound
And flung his cones like coins around.
'Oho," laughed the sturdy onk;
1.-The life of the fold for me,
l weather tho lightning stroke;
My branches are broad and free.
Grow straight and . i'm in the wood il you will
Give me the sun and tho w~ind-swept HILL
And tn, apple tree murmured low;
Il am neither straight nor strong;
Crooked my back doth grow
With lesring my burdens long"
And ii droppel it, fruit as II dropped a tear.
And Redeemed tho ground with fragrant cheer
And tho lord OF the harvest heard, .I.*
And he said: II hayo use fer all;
For the bough that shelters n bird,
For tho beam that pillars q hall:
And grow they tall and grow they Ill,
They grow but to wait their masters will"
So \ ship OF tho onk was scnt
Far over the ocean blue,
And the Pine was tho mast that bent
Az over tho wavos II few,
And tho ruddy fruit Of the apple tree
Was borne to n starving isle Of tho sen.
Now tho frrmer grows like the oak, d..
And the. townanan IL proud and tall,
And tho city and field are AL Of folk
Hut the Lord hna mood II all,
And who viii he like the apple trao
