There's an old log house on my father's farm, All silent, and lonely, and still ' • Not a sound of mirth is ever heard now In the old log house on the hill. But fondly I think of the bygone days, Where with brothers and sisters dear, Not a happier home, in the country around, 'Could be found either far or near. But my father builded another house, And my brothers are gone afar ; And the old log house is deserted now And defaced with many a scar. The rabbit and squirrel play hide-and-seek With mice o'er the oaken floor ; But they quickly beat a hasty retreat When the owl flies in at the door. The "twittering swallow" now builds its nest On the rafters going, to decay; And the robin and sparrow have made their house On the logs for many a day. The little room where my brother and I Oft listened to the weird whip-poor-will, Is open now to the birds and the bats, And they conic there without fear or ill. But poor-will is missed from his nightly seat On the apple tree near the door— For there's no one there to answer him back, As we've done a thousand times o'er. The primroses bloom uncared-for now, And the "blue-eyed violets" blow ; And the cottage-rose, that my sister loved, Climbs in at the casement low, As if it would ask, "Where are they all gone That used once to caress and to love Us poor flowers, neglected now . In the rank weeds that o'er us rove 1" But the friendly vine, an the old black logs, Still clings there, loving and true, As if it would hide the marks of decay From the passing traveler's view. Oh, my heart still clings to the dear old home, And the times of my childhood there ; And I'd rather lire o'er those blessed days Than to dwell in a. palace fair. —Rural Yew Yorker. Wastes on the Farm. The greatest of wastes on the farm•is in the not using of our brains ; the great est because at the bottom of all other wastes. A little thinking often saves much labor. After accomplishing any piece of work, the most of us can look back and see how we could have improved on it, fwe hod bet thought. As we re mepuber our crops of thitlyear, we see how they could have been easily increased, had we only thought. The ditch we dug through our meadow was not done in the most economical way. We dug toodeeply at first, and did not allow for the settling of the land. Hence a waste of labor. We omitted buying an implement that would have saved nearly its cost in this year's use, until we have spent as much in trying to accomplish our work without it. Here was another waste. We ,carry a water pipe too near the swam,. to save the ex *rise of digging a trench aide depth, aktitihe winter's frost necessitates a replace ment of the pipe, and an additional digging. Certainly a waste here. We allowed the weeds to grow on one piece of land, not thinking to what proportions they would grow by the time the crops were too far advanced to admit the hoe. .A waste here which might have beenobviated. And so on, wastes little and big everywhere, all arising from our not thinking sufficiently —waste, because not necessary and easily fated. We omit the ordinary wastes neglect, from laziness, from want of appreciation of cleanliness and thorough ness—the wastes from our stock, from our manure-heap. from our household. Verily, a little thought will save to the farmer much; and . the saving through this means, even on a small farm, will represent the interest on a large capital- The wastes arising from ignorance can very readily be diminished, and are in large part inexcusa ble ' • those arising from carelessness are not deserving of sympathy. Thelarmer, as well as the business man, must use busi lICSS principles to secure t he largest success, and the one should be as careful of the outgoes as the other.— Scientific Farmer.

I suppose house wives have a perfect right to experiment and see whaj, results. they can produce; and if they are not on as large a scale as the farmers try, they are just as important to tv, and they make our work light and brighter, too. Now, Ido not believe in luxuriatingin a good thing all alone, and I hope all the housekeepers will send and get a ten-cent bottle of spirits of ammonia and commence a • series of experiments, and see what they can accomplish with it. Take the boys' jackets, the girls' dresses, and when you have cleaned everything else, put a few drops in some soft water and wash the little folks' heads, and report progress.— Cowl ry Gentleman. Summer Complaint. As the dt-. 3 s draw very near which try the children so severely, we give a simple remedy- for the di4ressingTeotnpl4itit, which we find in the Pioneer Press : Take common ground allspice (one half teacupful spice to one half pint of boiling water will make.a very strong tea) Steep a few minutes, cool. sweeten. and give one teaspoonful every half hour if' necessary ; that is to a child of one year or therea bouts In case of cholera ulorbus give it very strong, and not sweetened. I have known it to check -severe vomitieg in a few minutes. It may be given cold or hot, and can be steeped and kept good for sev. oral week, by putting it in a cool place and keeping it from the air—that is, bot tled and the bottle well corked. A large pancake made of flour and water, baked, sprinkled with mustard, placed between two cloths and applied as hot as can be borne to the stomach or bowels will be found to give relief to severe pain in either cholera morhus or dysentery; it is a good plan to bake two pancakes, and then when one cools apply the other, re-heating them. To MAKE APPLE Show.--Take one dozen apples, boil them over a slow fire until they are soft, then remove the skins and cores; beat the apples well with a wooden spoon until they become frothy; strain through a sieve ; then beat tae whites of twelve eggs until you can turn the dish upside down and not spill out ; add half a pound of sifted refined sugar ; mix it with the apples, then beat all to gether until it looks like snow ; place it on a cake-dish, build it up as high as possible. place sponge cake or lady fingers around the sides like "charlotte russe." Argunll Ot tresibt. Christ's Sympathy If Jesus came on earth again, And walked and talked in field and street Who would not lay his human pain Low at those heavenly feet ? And leave the loom, and leave the lute And leave the volume on the shelf, To follow Him, unquestioning, mute, If 'twere the Lord Himself? How many a brow with care o'erworn How many a heart with grief o'erladen, How many a man with woe forlorn, How many a mourning maiden, Would leave the baffling earthly prize. Which fails the earthly weak endeavor, To gaze into those holy eyes. And drink content forever ! His sheep along the cool, the shade, By the still watercourse He leads ; His lambs upon His breast are laid ; His hungry ones He feeds. And I, wbere'er He went, would go, Nor question where the path might lend Enough to know that there below I walked with God, indeed I If it be thus, 0 Lord of mine ! In absence is thy love forgot ; And must I when I walk, repine, Because I see Tbee not ? If this be thus, if this be thus, Since our poor prayers yet reach Thee, Lord ; Since we are weak, once more to us Reveal the living Word ! 0! nearer to me, in the dark Of life's low yours, one moment stand, And give me keener eyes to mask The moving of Thy hand. Alone On His Knees. Cruden. author of that invaluable book, "The Concordance." died on his knees while praying He was remarkable for industry and fervent piety. His heart beat warmly for the poor and suffering.— He consecrated the entire profit.; of the second and third editions of his book to relieve the poor. It was his soul's delight to minister to their wants. lie was a fine illustration of that gospel precept, "Dili gent in business, fervent in spirit., serving the Lord." The first copy of the Concordance he presented to Queen Caroline, wife of George 11., in 1737. The Queen was so well pleased with it, she promised to reward him; but sixteen days alter she finished her brief life. Poor Crudeu's hopes were disappointed. He kept on in his back store, in London, in the Royal Exchange. When nearly seventy years old he was missed. Search was made in his lodgings, and the man of God was found kneeling by his chair, with the open Bible befbre him, his face calm and peaceful. Thus he died alone ! Yet not alone. He who says, "Lo, I am with you always," was with him. ll'ow blessed thus to failasleep in Jestis. "Asleep in Jesus, oh for me, May such a blissful refuge be !" David Livingstone, the beloved mission ary and explorer of Africa, also died on his knees. Future generations will be benefitted by his life-work. Like Cruden, he died poor and alone, and died while in the act of prayer. His long and weary marches over a wild and untraversed country, exposed to hostile tribes of savaees, to malaria and other diseases, he at last had to rest. He could be carried no further. His faithful servants built him a hut under a large tree, here the weary traveler rested. After giving him food and preparing his rude couch, his servants left him, hoping sleep would relieve hint. After some hours they drew aside the curtain. Livingstone was on his knees. They listened—there was do voice ; they touched him—he was cold in death ! Thus died this wonderful man. His attendants embalmed his body and bore it hundreds of wiles to the coast. It now rests in Westminister Abbey, where repose kings, poets, divines, and philos ophers. Blessed ending of a busy life ! His life was one of prayer, as well as un tiring industry. "His watch-word at the gate of death ; He enters heaven with prayer." A medical student in New York recently died on his knees, while in prayer and alone with God. The day before his death he complained of a pain in his head.— Nothing especially alarming in so common an occurrence, he retired to his room, hoping sleep would relieve his pain. Next morning as the breakfast bell rang, there was no response from him. Another voice had called him away. After all had break fasted his room was entered. The bed had not been disturbed. The young man was kneeling by the bed, with his hands out spread, as if in the act of prayer. Thus he passed away. A calm, serene smile was on his face "Life's labors done ; as sinks the clay, Light from its load the spirit flies, While heaven and earth combine to say, How blest the righteous when he dies.' Is there anything sad in these and many other similar deaths? Is it proper for us to pray, "From sudden death deliver us'." Surely not. Let us leave the time and manner or our death with our Heavenly Father. Let us ever be true to Christ, and consecrate our lives to his service, and then it will matter little whether we (lie suddenly or by slow diselse. May it be ours to say, "For me to live is Christ, and t•) die is M./stain Press. Truth. Miss Frances E Willard says : The grog shop is a two edged sword, and cuts both ways at once. It is a rotating ma chine for the snaring of souls. It catches young men and boys before they reach the church and Sabbath-school—while they are on their way—and they never reach its doors; or else it catches them as they return, and mars or nutralizes the lessons there imparted. Between the two, there is the old "irrepressible conflict" over again. It is war to the knife, and the knife to the hilt, and only ono can win And in this warfare we, of Christ's army, are outnumbered. There arc twelve saloons to every church ; twelve bar-keepers to every minister. The church opens its doors two or three days in the week. The saloon grinds on and on with its mill of' destruction, all the days of every week. all the months of every year. That we are outnumbered is not all. We are outgen eraled as well. The people of the tutu . shop propose in their hearts, not only to mar and nutralize, but to obliterate and displace the lessons of church and Sunday school. They have their series of lessons with which our International series cannot at all compete. They have studied care fully the tastes, tendencies, and preferences of boys and of young men, their natural and innocent taste for variety, fondness for amusement, preference for young company, and they pander to all these in ways that take hold upon death.— Temperance Ensign. FosTER says : "There is nothing which we shall ;egret so much when we have left this world as our want of thought. How true this will be of such as are careless about their spiritual condition ! They are engrossed with other matters. Business, pleasure, family cares, occupy their minds and hearts. And they never bestow a half hour's earnest though on their highest —tneir eternal interests. How terrible will their peace be broken up !', NEVER indulge in what appears to be a little sin ; ;t will harden the heart, and lead to greater. & CO! :1? 0"?' DRESC COO DS.
