PLANT TREES.

This day two hundred years ago. The wild grape by the rivers side, An1 tasteless ground nut trailing low, The table of the woods supplied. Unknown the apples red and gold, The blushing tint of peach and pear; The mirror of the paw-paw told No tale of orchards ripe and rare. Wild as the fruits he scorned to till, These tales the idle Indian trod, Nor knew the glad creative skill The joy of him who tolls with God. O Painter of the fruits and fiowers We thank thee for thy wise design Whereby the humble hands of ours In Natures garden work with thine. And thanks that from our daily need The joy of simple faith is born; That he who smites the summer weed May trust thee for the autumn corn. Give fools their gold and knaveS their power Let fortunes bubbles rise and fall; Who sows field or trains flower, Or plants a tree, is more than all. For he who blesSes most is blest, And God and man shall own his worth Who tolls to leave as his bequest An added beauty to the earth. And soon or late to all that SOW A time of harvest shall be given, The flowers shall bloom the fruits shall grow If not on earth, at least in heaven.

 Two Tales of Twain.
 Here are two good stories that Thomas Fitch, an old friend of Mark Twain, who was his fellow citizen of Virginia City in the early sixties, tells of the humor | ist:
 "One Christmas eve all of us, except Mark, were seated in the smoking room awaiting the an nouncement of dinner, when there arrived a lad with a pack age for Mr. Clemens, which he was directed to take to thesmok- ing room. After his departure we examined the bundle, for we were communists in spirit, and found that it contained a pretty knitted woolen scarf and a card bearing the inscription; 'Mr. Samuel L. Clemens, from his friend Etta.
 T can improve upon that message, suggested Daggett, who was the wag and philosoph- ical disputant and cribbage play CT of the club, and, obtaining a sheet of note paper, he wrote in a fine feminine hand the follow ing note:
 'Mr. Clemens: The accom- panying scarf having been pre- pared as a Christmas gift for you, it has been determined not to divert it from it's original des- tination, although a knowledge of your late conduct having come to the ears of the writer, your own conscience will tell you that this must close all communica- tion between us, in which decis ion my father and mother concur.
 Your former friend,
 Etta.'
 '"The scarf was re-wrapped, and with this note tied to it was placed in Sam's room. Shortly afterward he made his appear ance and proceeded to hls room to prepare for dinner. Soon we heard the crockery going.
 What is the matter, Sam?' said Daggett.
 "Thereupon entered Mark Twain, with coat and collar off, and throwing the package upon the table, he burst forth:
 "'Read that said he, flourish idg the note from Etta; read that. That's just my internal luck. You hounds can run the town night after night and mo- body ever says word, but am found out at once.'
 "Mark came over to our house at Washoe City, and for a week was our guest. He insisted upon having Maltese cat, Jim, for a bedfellow, and Jim, not being accustomed to tobacco smoke, emerged every morning looking like the remains of an ill-spent 1 life.
 ''It was here that Mark first | delivered in Nevada his lecture on the Sandwich Islands. He was exceedingly nervous about it, and, though it was received b. the audience with laughter | and applause, he was undoubt- edly not quite satisfied with the result.
 " Now tell me honestly said he, for 1 want criticism and not praise, what do you think of it?' !" Sam, said 1, as humorous writer you have no equal, and you will speedily take rank, both here and in the Atlantic states, as the first in the land
