LET HIM DREAM.

Do not wake him, let him dream:
He is dreaming she is fair;
AS the tinkling of a stream
Rippling through a glen somewhere
Fills the poets breast with glee
Her laughter makes him glad;
In her eyes he seems to see
Beauty they have never had;
Though she has no charms for you,
Let him dream as lovers do.
He supposes that her face
Might inspire "A poets pen;
He is dreaming that her grace
Is thing to gladden. men.
Ah, her nose was never cast
In the graceful classic mold,
And her chin when youth is past
VIII be piled up fold on fold:
Waking him would bring dsmay,
Let him gladly dream away
She is his; because of her
Beauty gildS all earthly things;
Everywhere he hears the whir
Ceaselessly of angels wings
In her shrill and rasping voice
There Is music for his ears;
He supposes that her choice
Left his rivals all in tears:
Let his sun in splendor gleam:
Do not wake him; let him dream.

Cow testing associations cost little
and save much. All there is to it is
for several farmers of the neighbor-
hood to get together and agree to take
samples and test their cows three or
four times year, and to have the
work done by an experiment station
or local creamery tester. The cost
is not over six dollars per farmer, and
often means the difference between
paying business and one that Is los
