LITTLE BROWN HANDS.

They drive home the cows from the pasturs.
Up through the long, shady lane,
Where the quail whistle loud in the wheat fields
That yellow with ripening grain.
They find in the thick waving grasses
Where the scarlet-lipped strawberry grows;
They gather the earliest snowdrops
And the first crimson buds of the rose.
They toss the hay in the meadow;
They gather the elder bloom white
They find where the dusky grapes purple
In the soft-tinted October light
They know where the apples hang ripest
And are sweeter than Itay's wines;
They know where the fruit hangs the thckess
On the thOrny blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate seaweeds
And build tiny castles of sand;
They pick up the beautiful seashellS-
Fairy barks that have drifted to land;
They wave from the tall rocking tree tops.
Where the orioles hammock-nest swings
And at night time folded in siumber
BY a song that fond mother sings.
These whotoil bravely strongest;
The humble and poor become great:
And from these brown handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers of state.
The pen of the author and statesman
The noble and wise of the land
The sword and the chisel and palette
Shall be held in the little brown hands.
