FAERY SONG.

Shed no tear! o shed no tear!
The flower will bloom another year.
Weep no more! 0 weep no more!
Young buds sleep in the roots white
core.
Dry your eyes! o dry your eyes!
For was taught in Paradise
To ease my breast Of melodies
Shed no tear.
Overhead! Look overhead!
'Mong the blossoms white and red
Look up look up. I fiutter now
On this fresh pomegranite bough.
See me! it's this silvery bill
Ever cures the good mans ill.
Shed no tear! O shed no tear,
The flower will bloom another year.
Adieu, adieu-I fly, adieu,
vanish in the heavens blue
Adieu, adieu.

TIE TRAMP AND CHICKEN

How the Chicken is Cooked with Much
SIKH and Little Labor.
The tramp has an ingenious way of
obtaining Il chicken, says the New York
WCrld. He must avoid all noise The
slightest cackling on the part Of the
bird would be fatal to his dinner.
He proceeds to get Il stick about ten
feet long, to the end of which he binds
cross piece, making rude perch.
Then, stationing himself under a tree
in which the chickens are rOOstinS, he
picks out his particular bird and gently
brings his perch up in front of her.
If the fowl does not step on at once
he rubs his perch gently UP and down
against her breast until she finally
steps on and promptly goes to sleep
again. The tramp shoulders the stick
and marches up the road out Of hear
ing distance of the house.
How many people, after a raid on
their henroost by the tramp in the dead
Of night, stop to think how he cooked
his chicken? If they give the matter
a thought at all they suppose he will
start a small fire and broil it. But he
will do nothing of the kind. In fact,
it would be impossible for him to do so
without removing the feathers, and, as
that would require Il little labor, of
course it would not be attempted.
His kitchen utensils consist generally
of broken knife and a tin cup. With
his knife he will kill and clean the
chicken in very much the same way
any housewife would, except that he
will make the opening in the breast
much smaller His seat of operations
will be on the bank Of some little brook,
where he will build a fire. Then comes
the part which he thoroughly dislikes,
for he must work He makes a very
thin paste Of clay and water, and tax
ing a handful commences to rub it well
over the chicken, feathers and all.
After this is well worked in he takes
another handful of little thicker paste
and rubs it over the first layer. So he
continues. each layer being about an
eighth of an inch thick, until he has n
the bird, and it resembles huge mud
ball Then he heaves a sigh Of relief.
for his labor is completed.
Nothing further is necessary but to
put the "mud ball. in the fire, and in
about twenty minutes it is transform
ed into savory meal. When the
chicken is done the clay is baked like
a brick. After cracking it, it peels off,
carrying with it the feathers and skin,
leaving the chicken smoking and white,

The village was the scene Of fear-in-
spired ferment. A report that a power

neighborhood had been brought in by
an excited farmer. The gravest of men
shudder at the sight of a mad dog. Men
that would fight grizzly bear tremble

Widow Burnley was terror-stricken
She could not be induced to leave the
room. Gradually the excitement died
away. School was resumed, but the
widow was tremulous
She left the school-house very late one
evening. Two rebellious boys had been
kept in. When liberated the boys ran

them. She could not She was hurry
