The Millennium Pictured.

A fascinating picture Of the pos
sibilities of future development on the
earth is portrayed in ''The Story OF the
Millennium" which is made a special
feature of the June numbero Of Demorst's
Family Magazine, It depicts the con-
dition of mankind on the earth in the
ten thousandth century, when inter-
planetary communication has been
established, and the s'dream of the
agesn has become a vivid and mag
nificent reality. Novel views concern.
ing the progressive evolution of man
kind during the intervening epochs are
included, and the narrative is related
in an easy, conversational manner, the
events being supposed to transpire
through the publication of the proceed
ings of the Optlmists Club an insti-
tuition established for the purpose of
foretelling the future of the world.
The story is illustrated by Beard, and
is from the pen of Arthur Field. This
is the first attempt at anything like a
complete pictorial representation of
the future appearance of the earth and
its inhabitants.

easily cultivated as a row of corn on
account of the short erect tops. They
stand drought longer on account of
dense foliage on the top of the row and
do we'll during a wet aso as the vines
are short and few run on the ground to
send out the thousand of small roots
that takes the growth from the tuber.

A SPRING PAEAN.

Have you roved meath tall magnolias
in the spring?
In the spring?
En our bright southland in the spring,
Snowy censers high they bear,
Flinging incense on the air,
Fragrant perfume everywhere,
In the spring! r
Have you found a violet blooming in
the spring!
In the spring.
A dewy, purple violet in the spring;
Where the ripping brook is flowing,
And the fresh, green grass is growing,
Will the pure, sweet wind is blowing,
In the spring!
Have you viewed a peerless lily in the
spring?
In the spring?
A regal, stately lilly in the spring?
All !! upon it's stalk so slender,
Naughty kings array'd in splendor,
Never half such pomp can render,
In the spring
Have you wandered 'mongst the roses
in the springs
In the spring?
Among the royal roses in the spring?
Seen the dainty petals flushing,
Till each crumpled leaf was blushing,
And your heart with JOY vas gushing,
In the spring!
Have yon plucked an orange blossom
in the spring!
In the spring.
Snapped its delicious odor in the spring
Shy buds bursting in the sunshine,
Pearly chalice filled with rime,
Oh! no gems that equal mine,
L the spring
Have you heard a southern mocRine
bird in the spring.
In the spring?
Our merry, saucy warbler in the spring
Hark! it's gleeful matin singing,
Soft, and weird its vesper trilling,
Choirs of birds with music thrilling,
In the spring
Then you know not, nor can fancy in
the springs
In the spring
Half the mystic, glowing beauty of the
spring
Oh! such scenes as l al show you,
And so lovely words can't tell you,
Or our sunny south depicture,
In the spring!
