GENERAL MOSES II. SHERMAN
 Friend, Helper, Brother.


 A token of appreciation from q few of his many admirers, on ue occasion of his welcome 10 his new home on the hills overlooking the san Fernando valley.
 Praying that Gods blessing may be upon him and that he may enjoy un- der this stately rooitree amid these beautiful surroundings many years of well-carucd repOse and measure of happiness somewhat in proportion to his very great achievements. Here follow the names of those on the acorn scrolls, with a sentiment for this room and that:
 THE LIVING-ROOM. Here dwelIs the Man! This is the
 Living-room!
 Here Welcome stands within the
 open door; A kiss waits for the Bride; joy for
 the Groom;
 For every Friend q hand-clasp;
 gifts galore! For laughing Children, joy; for the
 old Comradc, cheer; Sunday all week, and Christmas all
 the year; Every ones fricnd-Freuch, English,
 Russian, German, Yankee and Mexican-all the same
 to sherman,
 THE MUSIC ROOM. When the welcomes are said and the
 pilgrims arc fed,
 When the gossip is done and the
 dinner is over, When the poem is read, and the
 heart and the head,
 Have gathered their sweets like
 bees iu the clover;
 Busy bees in the sw"ei-ScenL
 cI clover; Here music will mll Us 10 linrct
 awhile. WtN love in the soul and the lins
 in a smile, And the cares Of the day hy hor
 charm will bcgutlo.
 Till-"Cod bless you, Dyal
 Sherman" it's over.

 THE KITCHEN. Only the women could guess, only
 the Women could plan. Only the women can know the way to the h,art of a man, The Women alone have intuitiye taste and the rare domestic sense To furnish the Kitchen palace-wisc, at only th- Kitchen expense; Coffee like that which your Mother
 made-this the kind they brew; Bl cad like her own, and doughnuts- holcy and twisted too; Rare is the cheer of the Kitchen; fair as the stars the hands That wrought the charm of its clean Illness. spotIcss as it stands; Tiuwarc and copper like silver and gold, spoons that the Pope might bless: These are the gifts you're to have and 10 hold-lucky old N.

 Sweet be thy slumbcrs,
 Rude cares depart;
