Milkin' Time.
The, sun't jes' shinin' 'fore he nods an' says his warm
good night,
The big red barn's a glowin' like IMMO jewel in the
trees,
An' over all there rests a calm—a rare
delight—
The oharni of milkin' titne in June, when nature
takes' her ease.
"Go', bos ! Go fetch 'ern Rover!
Co', bos Deep in the clover,
Co', Floss an' Bess, an' skittish Jess,
They're all a contin' now. I guess;
Co', boss ! The pails are waitin' 1"
Along -the woodland border green, where cool, deep
shadows grow, •
The Cows come slowly down the path to Brindle's
tinklin' tune;
They answer gently as I call, with voioes soft an'
low,
Far echeite o'er the shinamerin' fields 'o fair sweet
-
scented June.
hos! Be movin' faster!
Co', bos ! Up from the pasture,
Co', Flora, Sue, old Martha, Prue;
Keep movin' on. Don't stop to moo,
Don't be so hesitatin' 1"
They're wadin' thro' the medow-1brook, now there's
a pleasant scene,
Haw cool they look, hew long they drink, the
water's clear an' deep
An' friendly elms their sleek coats brush with sweep -
in' fringe o' green
Thro' which the laughing sunbeams glance, an' o'er
the ripples leap.
"Co* bos 1 You've done your drinkin'
Co' host The sun is ainkin',
Co' Sal, an' Kate, Co' Jane, don't wait 1
You'll never get here at that rate,
Co' hos The dew is fallin' 1"
Aa' now they're comin' up the lane, the're surely had
their fill,
Into the barn—the stanchions click—how well each
knowe her place,
"Get over Nancy—Bet, give down—Whoa 1 levee
Jess, stand still !
You've spilled a brimmin' pail o' milk !
0' patience, lend me grace 1"
"Go' hos! Be off an goin'
Co' hos ! The moon is showin*,
Co' Jersey's all! Go thro' the bars.
Sleep in the meadow 'neath the stars.
Co' hos 1 The night is °elfin' 1"

Only One Fault.
was riding through a country town in
Vermont, when I noticed a concourse of peo-
ple in the grave yard encircling an open
grave.
It was a warm day and I had ridden ten
miles, and I drew the rein under some trees
to allosir the horse to rest.
Presently a villager came toward me, and
I said, " there's a funeral to -day in your
town?"
Yes — Stephen. He was one of the
largest hearted men I ever knew. He had
great abilities. We sent him to the legisla-
ture three times. They thought of nominat-
ing him for governor. But,' he added,ead-
ly, "Stephen had one fault."
I made no answer. I was tired, and
watched the people slowly disperse, leaving
the sexton to his solitary work.
"A very generous man Stephen was.
Always visited the sick. The old people all
liked him even the children used to follow
him on the streets."
"A goad man indeed," I aaid indifferent -

"Yes he had only one fault."
"What was that ?" I asked.
"Only intemperance."
"Did it harm him ?"

A Wonder in Figures.
Some persons of a mathematical turn of
mind has discovered that: the multiplica-
tion of 987654321 (which you will observe
are ainiply the figures 1 to 9, inclusive, re-
verse) by 45, gives 44,444,444,4445. Re-
versing the order of the digets and multi-
plying 123456789 by 45 we get a reanIt

321 and taking 54 as the multiplier again,
the result will be 53,333,333,334—all 35 ex-

the same
54, as the
666,666,667, all 6s except the first and last
figure, which together read 27—the multi-

figures 27 and using 72 instead as a multi-
plier and 987654321 as the multiplicand we
get as a product, 71,111,111,112, all is ex-
cept the first -and last figures, which to-
gether read 72, the multiplier.

It is now admitted that the inherent hue

hue.
The new hunting lodge of the German
Emperor at Potsdam is to be a Norwegian

Living Happily- With Others.
A rule for living happily with others is to
avoid having stock subjecte ef disputation.
It mostly -happens when Deople live mull
together, that they come te have certain set
topics, around which, from frequent dispute,
there is encle a growth of angry words,
mortified vanity and the like, that the origi-
nal subject of differenceheeemes a standing
subject for quarrel, and there is a tendency
in all minor disputes to drift down to it.
Again, if people wish to live well together,
they must not hold too rnneh to logic and
suppose that everything is to be settled by
sufficient reaeon. Dr. aohnson saw this
clearly with regard to maeried people, when
her said: "Wretched would be the pair
above all names of wretchedness who should
be doomed to adjust by reason, every morn-
ing, all the minute details of a domestic
day," But the applicati n should be much
more general than he madr

A Progressive Conundrum.
They were working the conundrum racket
at a small sociable on Casa avenue the other
evening when a previous silent youth put in
hie oar with the current conversation.
"roe got one." he said.
"What is it?" asked the crowd.
"Why is Heaven like a baby ?"
They wrestled with it for ten minutesoend
gave it up; then he stibmitted this answer:
"Because Heaven is home, home is where
the heart is, where the heart is is the ctest,
a chest is a box, a box is a small tree, a
small tree is a bush, a bush is a growing
plant, a growing plant is a beautiful thing, a
benutiful thing is the primrose, the prim-
rose is a pronounced yeller and a pronounced
yeller is a baby."
After whioh he once more relapsed into
silence.
