CHILDHOOD'S HOUR.

IIhave two boys, two beautiful boys,
And they are my souis delight;
Ny heart Is swaycd by their griefs and joys
From earliest morn till night
NV dreams are rife with loveliest hues
To be woven deep within
The warp and woof OF the good they choose
To keep their souls from sin
And when each night, TO their bed consigned
BY a mothers loving hand,
Their childish prattle with p raycr combined
In reverence bid me stand
In sweetest tones that an angel throng
Might pause and list to hear,
Their musical voices Join IN song
As If Heaven indeed were near.
The prayer that my own dear mother taught,
BY my beautiful boys Is said,
And. II lay me down to sleep" is fraught
With memories Of the dead
@I pray the Lord my soul TO keep"
Brings childhood's hour once more,
And tears TO eyes unused to weep,
And a voice from the other shore
~ II should die before wake"
Comes soft on the listening afr,
81 pray the Lord my soul to take"
And this Is their nightly prayer.
" God bless you papa and mamma deorw
BY each in turn Is said;
Good nightr' Good ntghtr' IS the last We
hear
AS they ''coodle doom" IN bed
They close their weary eyes In sleep,
Untrammeled by earthly cares;
"I pray the Lord their souls to keep"
As echo again their prayers.
Obi when on my dim and closing eyes
This earth is fading away.
May those loving tones around me rise
Like sunsets parting ray.
For the sweetest picture my hour-glass
sands
Unyeil In this world OF care
Is my beautiful boys, with folded hands,
Lisping their baby prayer.

IHE POTATO scAa
A Disesse lsIways Accompanied by n Par
ticuI.;r Fungus.

Disease -siways Accompanied by n Far.
ticulsr Fungus.
In the annual report of the Connecti-
cut experiment station for 1899, Or.
Roland Thaxter gives an interesting
account of his experiments with potato
'scab. The following synopsis is
made from his rcport-the pictures
shown being copies of the original ones
used:
Almost every body who has raised
'scabby" potatoes has some theory as
to the cause of the disease Some claim
that it is caused by excessive moisture
in the soil. others think it is produced
by irritation brought about by sub
stances of insects in the soil that
scratch or mar the tubers still others
think it Is result of chemical action
due 10 the presence of lime or oxide Of
iron in the soil. while another theory Is
that stable manure induces the dis
ease. The trouble about all these
theories is that perfectly healthy pota-
toes are frequently produced in wet
soils anl with stable manure, while
scab frequently occurs on light dry
land. Dr. Thaxter thus dismisses the
insect-cating theory: Turning to the
theories which connect the 'scab' with
the action of so.lc organism, vegetable
or animal, the insect theory is one
very commonly entertained. especially
by farmers, insects including earth

she was, like enough" A hundred dol

drudging, that was more than she had
made in whole year. Truly, the past
year had not been successful one. The
crops had been little better than fail

COW, and, worst OF all, the man tc
whom she had let Mary James twenty
acre patch had decamped between day:
without paying his rent. These facts
were all the more exasperating to Nan
cy Kalometer, because she had alway:
prided herself on knowing how to man
age her own affairs
The small farmhouse, with its patel
of worn-out ground. had been her mar
rage portion Contrary to the prevail
ing custom, she had retained the prop
erty in her own name, declaring tha
she could hold that farm in her owl
name just as well as Joel Kalometel
could in his The adjoining twenty
acres Joel had purchased. At his death
several years before the opening O
our story, the land had reverted Il

to be held in trust by her mother until
she should marry, or until she should
have reached the age of twenty-five.
Mary Jane was a pretty, sensible
young woman, and had no lack Of suit
ors But on one and all her mother
looked with disapproval While she
had, doubtless, motherly interest In
the happiness of her daughter, 1t was
the fate of the twenty acres that al
ways seemed uppermost in her mind.
So, when Luke Daniels came counting.
and boldly asked the hand of Mary
Jane, the wrath of the good woman
knew no bounds
The Danielses, though highly respect
able, were, it must be confessed. a
somewhat improvident set While
Lukes occupation thus far had been
that of mere Farmland, he was a
manly, industrious young fellow, and
was looked upon with no small degree
of favor by Mary Jane herself.
MA, Sam Grants come to look at
them pigs" Mary Jane called from the
buttery.
Mrs. Kalometer busted the -four from
her hands and, tucking her skirts to the
tops of her calfskin shoes, hurried out
into the yard, where Sam Grant stood
in the drizzling rain. The two picked
their way across the barnyard to the
pens, where several sleels-looking pork
ers were luxuriating in their native ele-
ment. After considerable talking q
price was fixed and Sam agreed to take
the pigs.

already heard the story she tried to tell,
he coull scarcely have grasped its
meaning. AS it was, five minutes later
he was taking rapid strides toward the
real estate Office on the corner; and
when he returned it was with the eX-
quisite Mr.. Tyson in tow.
THERE he exclaimed, breathfessly,
shaking the young man much after the
manner Of an angry dog, give that
lady twenty-five dollars, or I'll break

With this demand the young man
complied, with surprising alacrity, and,
some minutes later, skunk ignominious-

II Jest come down to see if yeu wasn't

months ago. Sister Mag's been keep
in house for me, but Mary James bout
promised to take the Job off her hands;
an if you'll go long, Mother Kalo-
meter"
But strange thing had happened;
Nancy Kalometer had dropped in a
dead faint upon the floor. All through
the long summer months the grim old
woman seemed to be fighting fierce
battle for her life, and it was not until
the woods had grown brown and
patches of snow flecked the fields that
they went back to take up their abode
in the old farmhouse.
Nancy Kalometer's long illness had
left her but a shadow of her former
self; and when her neighbors dropped
in to twit her about upon the failure of
her business venture, the humbled face
of the old woman led them to speak
kindly words instead.
Years have elapsed since then, but in
o cheerful corner of the old farm
house an old woman sits, alternately
petting her wonderful grandchildren,
or watching with pleased face the
buxom young woman who steps lightly
about her work.
'T reckon that girl is the beatenest
hand at managin'." she declares, with
ill-concealed pride; 'but, then, gettin'
a good, industrious mans jest been the
