EASTER EGGS.
Tho top -knot biddy with yellow legs,
Was Harry's, and every morn
He gave her orders for Easter eggs,
While he scattered the oats and corn.
Day by day, for a week, he fed
Rations of every hue :
Chosen earn of yellow and red,
And squaw corn white and blue.
'Now. Biddy Top -Knot,' I beard him say
''Gaster will be here soon ;
A dozen eggs, at least, you must lay
By to -morrow afternoon ;
Red onus, Biddy, the nioest kind,
And yellow, and blue, real bright,
Speckled and striped, and spotted ; now
mind
Sat you make 'em moldy right.'
But in spite of fending and coaxing, too,
Hie Biddy world only lay,
Instead of red, and yellow, and blue,
Just one white egg a day,
And Harry's patience was sorely tried,
But be waited and watched the nest,
And atroked his Biddy, and softly sighed
"I link site will do her beet."
On Easter morning, wasn't it fun
To look at him through a creek—
He went to the nest, as he'd often clone,
But .oen canto capering back
With his apron full of Easter eggs,
Striped and speckled and gay ;
The topknot Biddy with yellow legs
Was petted and praised that day.
Ho told mamma just how it. befell ;
She listeued again and again :
`Tomas finch a pleasure to bear him dwell
On the skill of his wonderful hen.
And when bo had gone to share his prize
With Susy and Katy and Nod,
The dear mamma looked over so wise,
Bra never a word she said.
QUIET WAYS ARE BEST.
What's the use of worrying,
Of hurrying
And scurrying,
Everybody flurrying
And breaking up their rest ?
Whom everyone is teaching us,
Preaching and bseeehing us
To settle down and end the foes ;
For quiet ways aro hest.
Tho rain that trickles down in showers
A blessing brings to thirsty Sowers ;
And 1 out zephyrs gather up
Sweet fragrance from each brimming oup
There's ruin iu the tempest's path,
There's ruin in a voice of wrath,
And they alone are blest
Who early learn to dominate
Themselves, their violence serene abate,
And prove by their estate
That quiet ways are best.
Nothing's gained by worrying,
By hurrying
And scurrying,
With fretting and with flurrying
The temper's often lost ;
Aud in pursuit of some small prize
We rush ahead, and are not wise,
And find the unwonted exercise
A fearful price has cost.
'Tis better far to join the throng
That do their duty right along ;
Reluctant they to raise a fuss,
Or make themselves ridiculous,
Calm and serene in heart and nerve,
Their strength is always in reserve,
And nobly stands each test ;
And every day and all about,
By sooner within, and scenes without,
We ata diatom, with neer a doubt,
That quiet ways aro but.

On the evening of the 7th of Nevem

Express office for transmission to
Loudon and St. Thomas of 80(033

of $1,000 each, and the other of
$8,000—the entire sem being
equally divided between the Mem

interior of the state of Nebraska,
and from thence to lianas and Col-

on the 18th of March, I888, when
he appeared in Grainfield, Ifansas,
under the name of William Brown,
working that detectives calla "new

at that place, and stated that a
party by the name of George Fryer
was lying very ill at the house of a
man named Schaeffer, in St. 3ohn'e
county, about twenty-five miles
south of the village mentioned.
Brown described fryer's symptoms,
.ellioh the medical man pronounced
pneumonia, and for which he put up
a proscription. Brown stated that
he would tako the medicine to Fryer,
and in the event of him gutting no
