To -'hay thy Saviour diad;
With cruel theme his tread in crown'd,
'liken Sinai quakes,. with awful Donna,
Tho nen Clod is eruoilled,
Yet man goes on ids path of she,
Forgetting Calvary'a tree;
Forgetting that our sins Ile bore,
That wo might live forever more,
From every sorrow free.
With cruel spears Hie side they piorce,
Yet awed smiles His fano adorn ;
^I;loi 1 ldloi I the Saviour's cry,

His heart with fierce pain is torn.
0 may wo meet Him fano bo fano
When our rase on earth is run ;
(.1 may swept We of promise bloom
in every heart where sin finds room;,
To praise Israel's Holy Ono.
1tow can we wound Hint day by day?
When we know Ho bore our pain;
Then lot contrition's fount o'erflow,
And sin stain'dsouls made white as snow,
A. heavenly crown to gain.
And like spring blossoms, let our hearts
:Rise to Him who died to -day;
Let heavenly rays our actions gild,
That Christ's promise niay be fnldll'd,
. To dwell with His saints alway.
^L am the Way, the Truth and Life."
Let thy prayers like incense rise.

THE BORE.
r.
I sing of the gift of the human tongue
And the way that we mortals abtteo it ;
Though in spite of the fact that we've
each of us ono,
But few of us know how to use it ;
And thonumbers that don't are like drops
in the sea,
Or like the sands on the desolate shore,
I'or although to the cud of the earth you
may flee
You cannot escape from the bore.
Il.
lIe has various fornix, has this horrible
pest,
And various shapes and disguises
Like a fleet -flitting shadow, he never will
rest,
And he takes you by sudden surprises ;
.\nd as 110 his mune—please to notice the
fact,
ile mast have a hundred or more,
se you see it requires a most infinite tact
To escape the perennial bore.
111.
Now, one of his forms is a stoat, pudgy
gent
Who has features suggestive of port;
Who carries a sane that is battered and
bent,
And who mattes remarks with a snort ;
And who always insists upon telling you
His experience during the war,
Then borrow the usual dollar or two--
Butyonstand it, because he's a bore.
IV.
Then he often appears as that horrible
man
Who is subject to numberless ills ;
Who lures you on gently,. whenever he
can,
To discourse upon plasters and pills ;
Tho surprising effects of hot calomel tea;
The virtues of mutton, when raw ; •
\Vhy picldes and coffee will never agree—
Well, he's tho medicinal bore.
V.
Ile is frequently seen as a youth with a
sigh
Anda Habit of slapping hie chest,
Who has a queer hat and a watery eye,
And a coat that is far from the bast;
Who is always reciting a poem he wrote,
About mystery, murder and gore,
Till you know it both backwards and for.
wards by rote—
He's the merely poetical bore.
VI. •
Hut his [favorite form is that of tho man
" Who has but ono story to tell;
:\ tangled -up tale, with an intricate pian,
That's as gay as n funeral knoll.
Ah 1 if but he knew what his auditor
bears
When ho tolls hhn that anecdote hoar,
Of the burning desire to kick him down-
stairs,
1Io would cease with his story to bore"
VII.
There's the bore who has usually nothing
to say,
Andthe ono that does nothing hub
guess,
And the hero who is most idiotically gay,
And the boro that says nothing but
"yeas,"
and the bore -',--but it's perfectly useless
to name,
For I think that 1 mentioned before
That the drops in the ocean, the drops of
the rain,
Would scarcely outnumber the bore. '
VIII.
\Vo can all understand why the centipede
grim,
• And the rattlesnake, came to exist;
it's hem frequently proved that of use
they have boen,
Bub 1 doubt that they'd over he missed;
So 1 fear that the verdict of wiener is
true;
They have been of ace, less or more,
ISM I fervently wish that I honestly
knew
Of wind earthly neo is the 1'0x0.

Any surplus of vegetables, such se
beets and carrots or small potatoes,
can be fed to the pige with advant-

The pen should have a cement bot-

even fibre to the wool, which very
materially affects its value. Unifor•

Vegetables grown for their leaves
or atoms, such as cabbage, spinach
and lettuce, require a plentiful sup.
ply of nitrogenous manures ; where-
as vegetables grown for their seeds
and pods require the application of
such manures es boue dust and wood
ashes.
If the sheep aro suffering from
ticks, a regulatiug diet is absolutely
necessary to counteract or change
the condition that have induced the
lies t0 take possession. Animals
out of condition are extremely liable
to be pestered by such insects. In
case the ticks are in actual occu-
pancy the change of dict should be
supplemented by dirset warfare on
the ticks.

that each year brings us a fresh list
of wonderful strawberries we do not

ahead of any other three varieties.
After testing tunny kinds of red

Taylor is one of the hardier black-

its fair sized, handsome fruit is of
excellent quality. The Luyder is

I find that consumers are rapidly
learning to appreciate the superior
quality of these smaller blackberries.,
—In rad currants the Roby Castle

lead where k--uown.--Upon light
soils bleak entrants are rarely profit
able. Upon such soils the Hough-

Dawning because of its larger size.
—In grapes, the Concord leads, but
the Warden is an improvement upon
it in most respects, Tho Champion
leads all others in almost everything
except in quality, which is not good.
When properly ripe, and not over
