Their mingled branches swaying cast ever a cooling shade O'er the strip of emerald grassland . where the happy children played; And a slender lad and thoughtful, with dreamy eyes of blue, Said the tree was a. maple maiden and the spruce her lover true. The fancy pleased the children, as fan- cies ohildrep will, For it gave them a sense of friendship with the trees below the hill, As if the spruce ahid the maple had a life to their own akin, And beneath their bark imprisoned heat human hearts within, They saw how the maple nestled to the spruce's sheltering side, As his .rnged, green Arms clasped her with fond protecting pride. He was the taller and stronger, she the more graceful tree, And never could human lovers more kind and faithful be. Wben the winter snows were silver and the winter winds were keen, The gray -cloaked bride was leafless but the sturdy spruce was green; And when the springtime rapture tbrilled all the woodlands through, The tender tints of the maple were blent with his somber hue. All through the days of summer they talked and whispered low, While the gentle west -winds wavered their branches to and ,fro ; And in aultumn the little maple in her splendor and crimson gray Stood proudly close to'her lover in his rugged and dark array, The children have grown and wandered from the ken of the homestead hill, But the trees, thro' seasons many, are green and faithful still. Still nestles the little maple to her knightly lover's side, And still the spruce -tree shelters with 'his mighty arms his bride. Though the winter winds are biting, but the closer drawn are they, As fond as when summer sunbeams among their branches play. Time passes o'er them as lightly as it does o'er the ribbon rill. There, as each season Basses, at the bot of the homestead bill. FIFE EXCELLE14T FARM DINNERS. No. 1, -Beefsteak, plain boiled pota- toes, baked corn, celery, cucumber, pickles, rice `pudding.

Eu.rly in life Mr. Gladstone seems ,to bllve bee&,, the, advice of a Hebrew preacher; " Whatsoever thy hand find- eth, to do, do with thy migbt." An Mile tmli,on of the gifted boy's intensity is 'told by an English writer in an ac- count IgWen by Dpan Stanley of his first meeting Gladstone. The old Bishop of Norwich, haNing been pleased with somie of his son's perfarinances, said that as a ;reward he would take him to visit William Gladstone, the most extraordinary schoolboy who had ever been Seen. They lvmnt to the house whea'e be was, and Arthur Stanley had been sent out Into the garden to make acquaint- ance wilth the prodigy, who was Said to be sitting in a suram,e'r-house at the end of a walk. Hie we0t, and found Gladstone reading a book, As Stanley entered, Gladstone looked up and said, with great vehemence: ",,Li.ttle boy, little boy, have you read Gray 2" Stanley, much startled, faltered out that he had not riea,d Gray; to which Gladstone, with increased Intensity of manner, replied, "Then you must read Gray 1" The same wrilter gives another illus- tration of Gladstone's doing with all his might whatev" occupied his mind: ",Breakfanted with Mr, Gladstone. Huxley oat nloxt him, and was croSs- exaantiniad all the time about the horse, the mWe and the dloukey, which 'in their Holmieric setting, occupy the mind of the great man very much at pres- ent.` NIAGARA'S GREAT STEEL ARCH.
