THE LAND OF POPPIEs.

Where. blue and silver in the sun,
The broad Pacific swells,
And, king among the forest trees,
The giant redwood dwells;
And frosty winter never smites
The smiling earth with gloom,
In all their gay and glowing pride
The languid poppies bloom.
The hills are rich with yellow ore,
And in the wales below
The luscious fruits and fragrant flowers
OF every climate grow;
And by the ruined missions walls
And from the waysida sod
And all along the garden walks
The drowsy poppies nod.
Bright, crumpled blossom. silken pink,
Pure white and crimson deep.
And vivid scarlet, everywhere
They tell tale of sleep,
When purple shadows long and cool
Among the vineyards lie,
And apples ripen into gold
Beneath turquoise sky.
While louisiana on her shield
The sweet magnolia shows,
And Maine displays the brown pine cone,
New York the queenly rose,
And Delaware prefers the peach
To garland her renown,
The Golden State elects to wear
A regal poppy crown.

Lawn Games i'm England.

We get nothing like the pleasure out
of our lawns which the English do.
Where we are at fault is that We do
not use our lawns TO anything like
their full capacity of enjoyment. Here
and there we use them as the framing
of lawn tennis or crOquet courts (Which
we make either of dirt or asphaltl. and
here and there we mark out upon their
surface baseball diamond. Still rare
ly and only in limited localities they
are used for the playing of cricket.
Both the latter games, however, re-
ouire for their outfielders rather a field
than a lawn, within the ordinary mean
ing of the word; and. speaking broad
ly and generally. it may be said with
truth that we have no games which
require only lawn and nothing more.
Nevertheless, the two games of jack
o. the green, or lawn bowls, and quoits
have held their own through ten cen
turtles. at least in Great Britain, and in
later times have spread with the race
TO the remotest parts. which might be
nlayed on tens of thousands of lawns
in America, to the great advantage OF
the players and to the enhancement OF
the pleasures of country life.-Coun
