= % ~. The Dover.
And do you love the wild rose spray,
The meadow grasses wimple?
The meadow brook upon its way,
With merry laugh and dimple?
Wood quiet-do you W -ship where :.
The bougl1s above it darkle?
The mellow vintage of the air
Do you know its tang and sparkle?
Or have you heard the cricket sing,
When chilly dusk YVES falling?
And than,, your heart remembering,
The silent voices calling?
Hear you the secrets of the stars?
And what the wind is saying?
Ana out beyond sights prison bars
With tears have you been straying?
Has Beauty bid you follow her. =.
10 you her face unwilling,
10 walk with her a worshiper,
To know her grace untailing?
Thrice happy one! For you the light,
Love, hope, the bright tomorrow;
But often on your soul the night
Will lie with double sorrow!

A Musical Kite.

"A MUSICAL AlC0s
Here is new kite for the boys to
study, SO as to be ready with an inter-
esting novelty for the kite season.
Take sound and timber barrel
hoop, three feet long, and white
away about half it's width. Bend it so
as to make a pear-shaped frame, ty-
ing the two ends together with stout
twine. Then place bars, running both
ways, inside Of it, lacking the ends of
the bars to the frame with brads. You
then have a frame like the pear-shaped
figure in the picture. Over this frame
paste two layers of the strongest It's

Bengal Tigers
The man-eater is usually an older
tiger, whose strength is failing and
whose teeth have partly lost their
sharpness. Such beast finds it easier
to Turk in the vicinity Of settlements
and to pick up an occasional man.
woman or child than to run down wild
cattle.
The largest, 6ercest and most bright
ly colored tigers are found in the
province of Bengal, near the mouths
of the Ganges river, not far from CAL
cutta. A full-grown Bengal tiger
sometimes measures ten feet from nose
to tip of tail. Such a monster makes
no more account of springing upon a
man than a cat does Of Selling a.
mouse. He surpasses the lion I'M
strength and ferocity and has no rival
among beasts of prey except the griz-
ely bear and the recently discovered
giant bear of Alaska.-St. Nicholas.
