the early visitors was Il remarkably fat
man. who found himself wedged into
the arch when he tried to squeeze
through and was extricated with some
difficulty. The builders. recognizing
the possibility Of other fat people be-
ing numbered among the future Wis.,

.Longfellow.

These few warm days have made
one long for the country. Not just for
fresh air and to be whisked over hill
and down dale at such a rapid rate, in
street cars or machines, that the won
derful beauties in nature are never
seen. Carpets of green dotted with
yellow dandelions, which look like
stars dropped from the sky; the first
violet, SO modest and shy in its first
appearance that it has to be looked
for; also spring beauties, adder
tongues, May apples well on their way,
all these are reckoning and calling US
to come and spend the day with them
And then the birds! To enjoy them
and their songs one must find a quiet
resting place and listen to the won
derful notes at different hours of the
day. AS all bird lovers know, the
birds have a song with various notes
for different hours, morning, noon OF
night.
AIDS WHOLE FAMILY.
Then in this merry month of May
before the leaves are out in full, wha'
more interesting study is there for the
| entire family than watching the build
| ing of the birds nests. A great dea
| is lost which is so interesting to SEE
among these little forest dwellers
and birds are not the only Inhabitants
when the foliage becomes too thick.
Then as we feast the eye the sense
of smell is busy when we come to ;
lovely town, white with apple bios
SONS. All these beauties are for you
and for me, for the rich, for the poor
if we only make a little effort to ge
there and enjoy them. We do not ge
enough of Gods great, wide, beautiful
wonderful world, at this season s,
beautifully dressed.
Try it Sunday with a basket packe,
with a simple but wholesome luncl
and the entire family will come home
may be tired, but better mentally
morally and physically. This is on
of the things really worth while, nc
once but often, until it becomes
habit to know all nature.
For churchgoing people, go t
early service, then finish the servic
listening to the wind whisperin
through the trees, the music of ruI
ming brooks and be glad.
