A SONG Of the Weeds.

Here's a cheer to the weeds up-springliis.
And Il song for deeds they do:
With their flags to the world out-fiinging
They stand ready to fight 1t through;
And their dare is as pert and singing
AS their courage is proven true.
They are bulded for war and trouble,
And will neither lead nor drive.
Now them down to a field or stubble,
And 1t makes them but more alive:
Cut in twain. and their numbers double,
And double, and double, and thrive.
They laugh at plowsharc cleaning.
And they tauntingly smile at tile hoe:
They lie down. it seems, past redeeming.
q But in truth SO both ends may grow.
1t takes doing of deeds. not dreaming.
Not to win. but keep up with this foe.
Yes. foe are the weeds worth singing.
And foe for the strongest arms,
And for hearts whereto hope is clinginE.
And for love that cheers on and charms.
So a song to the weeds up-springing.
on a thousand battle farms.

 Rev A. H. Post delivered from his pulpit here, last Sunday morning, a plain sermon upon 1.-The relations of a pastor to his parish." His reasoning was clear and his vindication of the church 'most truthful and convincing. We have heard some attempt to main- tain that this village would be as we'll off without the influence of the church as it is, but we can only wish with re- gret it was not true. All such could have heard MT Posts reasons as stated why the church is powerful factor in every community for temporal, physi- cal: financial. as we'll as spiritual good. While 1t may seem among the least of the benefits, still MT Posts idea is that it is to the best interest of every owner of real estate in community to see that the church is we'll sustained in his home village. It gives a tone to every hamlet which no other Institution can furnish and in all ways from lower to the highest it's value and its place in the worlds great storehouse is incal- culable.
