MY EARLY HOME

Here sparrows build upon the trees,
And stockdove hides her nest;
The leaves winnowed by the breeze
Into calmer rest;
The backcaps song very sweet
That used the kiss;
1t made the Paradise complete;
My early home this
The redhreast from the sweetbriar bush
Dropt down to pick the worm;
On the horse-chestnut sang the thrush,
Ger the house where born;
The moonlight like a shower of pearls
Fell DER this bower Of bliss
And the bench sat boys and girls;
My early home this.
The old house stopped just like a cave,
Thatched DER with moses green:
Winter around the walls would rave,
But all calm within
The trees here all green again,
Here bees the flowers still kiss
But flowers and trees seemed sweeter then;
My early home this.

HASKELL SUPPORTS BILL.
Superintendent Wants "Net-weiEh,
Package La"

Enactment of the ''net-weiSht package
law" is again being urged by Col. W. G.
Haskell, superintendent of weights and
measures. He transmitted a report to the
District Commissioners yesterday, setting
forth that the bill pending in Congress
would be the most effective means of
remedying local conditions in respect to
the sale of coal.
Col. Haskell said in his report that il
was impossible under existing laws to
protect the purchasing public from being
deceived in measures. He says that while
the package is supposed to represent a
certain standard, it is generally short in
actual contents.
Under the present laws. which allow
the dealer to make use of an indefinite
measure. the poor frequently have been
mulcted when buying coal in small guam
titles, he adds. In some cases they have
paid for their coal at the rate of $3.50 a
ton. Col. Haskell states in his report
that these evils can be corrected under a
''net-weight package law" and recon-
mends that the Commissioners urge its
passage upon Congress.
