The flowers aro drooping ono by one,
The wheat is garnm•ed, the work is done,
The vines are withorod-their moo is run,
October.
The waves aro angry on Hnrou'e broant,
The song birds have flown to homes of root
The trees in crimson and gold aro clreat,
October.
The summer light io waning fast,
Tho sultry winds become a blast,
Tho autumn float It blight hath oast,
October,
Let no then work for a home above,
A haven of everlasting lova
Where truth will fhrd the treasure trove,
October.

TIIE ANNUAL TOWNSHIP SHOW.
These are the days when the farmer's boy
Culls tiro "titers" from out of the row,
And puts them into a basket clean,
To take to tho annual township show.
These aro the days when the sorrel oolt,
Is combed and brushed, and taught to go
Wlron the buggy's washed, the harness oiled
To make a shine at the township show.
These are tho days when the farmer's girl
Works till her face is all aglow,
And churns her butter and works 11 up,
To tako a prime at tbo township show.
These are the days when the hired man
Looks for a holiday I trow,
And gets a "ten" from the farmer boss,
To whoop-'er-up at the township show.
These aro the days when the fakirs thick,
Out in the country travelling go,
And make their pilo at tont and stand,
And bless tho annual township show.
A WOMAN'S NO.
She hall a parool, small and round,
One lovely afternoon last summer,
I offorod, as in duty bound,
7.o take it from her.
She thanked me with a gracious smile,
As sweet as rosy tips uould metro it ;
It was so small, 'twas not worth whilo
To lot mo take it from her.
Again I offered, as before,
Of that slight burden to relieve her.
She'd rather not ; "Pray say no more 1
'Twould really griove her.
I coaxed to plead ; she seemed content ;
Tho thing was small and neatly corded,
And so along our way we wont
To where she boarded.
But when upon.the stoop she stood,
And ere our last adieus wore uttered,
She eyed mo in a roguish mood,
And softly muttered,
As swung the door to let her through,
And loft me there all unresisting ;
"I don't think very much of you
For not insisting."
A VERITABLE VACUUM.
He wie a dudo,
Hie attitude
Was striking ne he sat
On the veranda balustrade,
Tho wlrilo a cigarette he made,
Ea wore a Darby hat.
With such a brim
TS oovered him,
His coat was made so tight
Hie arm could novor tough his aide
His elbows thus extended wide
Were really quite a sight.
His trousers, too,
Exposed to view
A limb so very slight
You scarce could toll it from the cane
The silver head of which ho fain
Would swallow if he might.
He utterod slow,
"Aw, don't you know,
Thfs really'e quite a bore,"
Then rolled his cigarette again
And looked as if he tried in vain
To think of something moos.
But no 1 you see
Vacuity
On every feature plain ;
Beyond his oigarobte and clothes,
Ho absolutely nothing knowo-
Exoopt to suck his nano,
