BIDDY IN the BUSHES.

About the first thing asked by the
town boy when he visits the farm is,
"Gran'ma, let me hunt the eggs"
Sure" she answers, but don't fall
down the hay hole"
And then away to the haymow
And up on the big straw stack,
Down in the stable entry
And up on old Fans rack,
Those kids go screening and climbing
To find the eggs so white
That Blddy the hustling farm hen,
Has hidden out of sight.
But some hens are too slick even for
the American boy and aren't found I'M
til they show their chicks unless the
reaper uncovers their nest in the field.
Pretty Biddy in the picture stole her
nest on the border of the wheat, where
we found her sitting on thirteen
white eggs in a cool coy nest among
the tall weeds and grasses. There we
sat down beside Biddy in the bushes
to take lessons from nature at short
range. for Biddy in the stolen nest
always seems to do the best. Hear
our hen tale:
The nest was clean of filth and lice,
for Biddy busted near by; thus the

In Memory of Sadie c. Burke.
Little bud of fairest promise
q Broken from its parent stem
Here has left its beauteous casket
Which contained the priceless gem.
She was like ray of sunshine
On the hillside in our home,
And our hearts are almost breaking
While we think that she is gone.
She was but tender blossom
Given for little while,
Now she sleeps on Jesus bosom,
He will safely guard our child.
With her little hands so waXen
Folded on her snowy breast,
Thus in life's bright early morning
Little Sadie went to rest.
Though we hear her voice no longer
And we see her smiles no more,
We shall think of her as waiting
For US on the other shore.
Tho in earth life we must linger
Still to sorrow and to wait
Then We'll meet our loved and lost on
Just beyond the pearly gate.

JOHN HOWARD PAYNE
Reminiscent Bit Concerning the Author
of this Weeks illustrated Old Song

three men connected with the American
Consulate, and some twenty Others, several
of them Tunisians. all of whom were dressed
in the costumes of their country. Among
the number was Payne's old dragoman, who
had been present at the poets death and
burial thirty-one years before.
with exceeding care and reverence the
grave was opened; but when the coffin was
reached nothing but the mere skeleton was
found, and in removing this to the new
coffin the greatest delicacy, so to speak, had
to be exercised in order to keep it intact. AS
| bent over the grave noticed that the root
of pepper tree had begun to creep across
the forehead. l pulled it away, and in so
doing exposed piece of frontal bone as
white as ivory, which, with the piece of pep
per root, | subsequently gave to Mr.. Cor
coran as souvenir. | also secured num-
in which he had been buried all of which |
presented to Mr.. Corcoran and the State
Department.
The remains of Payne were then borne
to the little English church, where the coffin,
wrapped in the American flag, was placed
on a table in front Of the chancel, and di-
rectly under window that had been erected
years before by English and American resi-
dents to the poets memory. Here, on a
brass tablet, was the following inscription:
ITO the Memory of John Howard Payne.
Author of Home, Sweet Home.
1T was now the sunset hour The-cere
mony at the church was simple in character;
yet very sad and sweet. An English naval
officer sat at the organ and played the music
of Home, Sweet Home, and my wife sung
the song. So, standing in the lovely twilight,
