Statl1eSt llleS,
And roses OF loveliest hue:
Let us twine them in wreaths and In garlanos,
In cross and in anchor and crown;
And on the low graves OF our comraueS
We lay them In reverence down.
There Time with the tenderest fingers
Has hidden the soft grasses wave
And the wild flowers blossom in beauty
Above every slumberer's grave.
The robin sings there his gay carols
All voices OF nature are heard,
And daily their music upriseth
From breeze and from bee and from bird.
She cares not II moss or II marble
Or naught mark the place OF their rest
On each fall the tears OF the raindrops,
She lieepeth each safe in her breast
Her daisies unfold their white petals
Alike DER the high and the low:
In verdure she hides them in summer,
In winter she gives them her snow.
We come with our garlands in springtime
To deck the low mounds where they lie,
Yet nature, our mother, is kinder
For never she passes them by
We come with our bands and our music
But once, and perchance with tear,
But the songs and the signing of nature
Never cease through the circling year.
Our garlands will fade and will wither,
Hers blossom anew with the spring;
Dur songs must die out into silence,
Her anthems more joyously ring!
With those whose low mounds we're adorning
In dreamless sleep must we share,
and the tender arms of our mother
Enfold us with like loving care.
Sound, musicl with saddest of dirgesl
Ring, bugesl with softest of notes!
And comrades, while gently their signing
In sweetest of harmony floats
Come forth, with your hands full Of flowers,
With garland, with cross and with crown
And on the low graves OF our brothers,
Oh, lay them in reverence down!

evening"" he called, as he started out
for home, IAN mebbe I'll be here my
self"
Hester went quietly to work at her
evening tasks, taking now and then an
anxious look toward the bed. The old
horse was feed and the stable door
closed against the damp spring air.
81 didn't deckerate th' graves after
all, did I?" exclaimed the owner of the
claim, talking to herself, "an' tn flow
ers is all in tn wagin. I'll take 'em
in fer him ter look at-it'll be jest as
we'll"
A tender expression came into her
face at the words.
Loaded with the wild blossoms-the
wind-howers, violets and early red
roses which she had gathered during
the past week-she reentered the cabin
and placed the rude bouquets beside the
soldiers couch,
Something in the fragrance of the
blossoms, or in the approach of Hester,
reached the drowsy senses of the Sleep
err, and as she leaned over the bed his
eyes suddenly opened and their blue
depths looked steadfastly into the
brown ones of the hostess.
"Hester!" The words sprang instinct
| lively from the pale lips.
"Jim!" she replied, with a dry, hard
sob that seemed to come from her in
most heart
I've looked for you so long" whis-
pered the man, 81 thought I'd never
find YOU"
"And thought you'd never come"
You knew me when l did meet you?"
Eyes, Jim, I'd know you always. But
me! Pm so changed. How could you
know me?"
Eyes, you're changed and so am I,
but those eyes could belong to no one
else"
Then flowed on the stream of talk as
she sat beside him with one of his white
hands clasped in both her wrinlxled
brown ones. He told of confinement in
southern prisons; of long delays before
he could work his way home; of finding
her gone to the west; of search that
was unsuccessful and heart-sickness
that resulted in start for home; of the
runaway while en- route. She told Of
troubles in her family; of being thrown
on the world alone; of mourning him az
lost; and her life on the plains.
1t had grown quite dark, but they
took no heed of time.
Suddenly footsteps were heard out
side and hearty knock shook the cabin
door.
'It's the minister" whispered Hester
nervously, hes come to see you. We
won't need him now-shall tell him
ter go home?".
Jim clung to her wrist. Eyes. we do
need him." he pleaded, "you know what
for. Have him stay and we'll settle it
for sure"
She hesitated moment and then
throwing open the door invited the
minister and his companion, the doctor,
to enter.

SMOOTHING HARROW.

A Splendid Homemade Implement for

The harrow / had made to suit me,
for special purpose narrowing corn
corn for ensilagc being our main fodder
crop, and it does so much better work
and so much faster than any ready
made drag ever saw that would not
like to be without it. 1t is just as good
for killing weeds in potatoes as in corn.
The field should be narrowed as soon as
two or three days after planting, and
surely twice a week until the corn is 4
to inches high. Use one horse until
the corn is up nicely and then use two
horses, always driving between the
rows so as not to trample on corn or
row.
The woodwork of this harrow is all
of good, seasoned white oak, painted
three coats, with venetian red dry
mixed in raw oil The teeth can be
made of old sullSy hay rake teeth, 9s
inches, or get 9s-inch square steel and
cut in 6-inch lengths and have sharp

and drive down even with top of beams.
