MY DOG.

Dead and my heart died with him.
Buried What love lies there.
Gone forever and ever,
No longer my life to share!
"Only a dog!" Yes, "only,"
Yet there are bitter tears.
Weary and heartsick and lonely,
l turn to the coming years.
Something that always loved me;
Something that I could trust;
Something that cheered and soothed
me,
Is moulding in the dust.
Gentle and faithful and noble,
Patient and tender and brave,
My pet, my playmate and guardian,
And this is his lonely grave!
l go to my empty chamber,
And linger before the door;
There once was a loving welcome
l listen for that no more.
I sit by my lonely hearthstone,
And lean my head on my hand;
Lies low, with my Newfoundland.
Oh, the best of my wayward nature
One plank, when the ship was sink
ing,
In wild and stormy sea,
One star, when the sky was dark
ened,
Was the love of my dog to me.
A star that will shine no longer,
A plank that has missed my hand,
And the ship may sail or founder
No watcher is on the strand.
Blue hunting grounds of the red man,
May not l dream the dream2
Surely my old companion
Awaits till I cross the streaml
Waits with a faithful yearning,
Almost akin to pain,
Till in some future heaven,
He bounds to my feet again.

Select a quiet hen that has been
broody for several days and place her
on a nest with few Gull eggs or

on these eggs for two or three days
before giving her the eggs to b.

1t is especially advisable to make
sure that the hen is free from lice.
Lousy hens stand on the eggs and pick

the hen has lice dust her freely with

The remarkable success and univer-

since it's inception on the market
makes it necessary for the manufac-

IT the wall board business continues to
