John and the Squire.
I am only a farmer's girl,
John is only a farmer's lad,
But somehow, when we chance to meet
The very sound of his coming feet,
Can make icy heart so glad,
That np to my cheeks the warm blush flie.,
And he reads his welcome in my eyes.
I am only a farmer's girl.
Master Tom is the Squire's son,
But, strange to tell, his feet this way
Turn often towards the close of day,
And after the chores are done,
When John (he passes the meadow gate?)
Gives me a scowl, and—will not wait.
I am only a farmer's girl,
So what can the Squire want of me ?
My heart is John's ; John knows it well;
But it isn't for me the truth to tell—
So bashful a lad is he;
So the Squire may come and the Squire may go,
And all tile answer he'll get is "no !"
The Squire praises my hair and eyes ;
The Squire says I'm a lady born—
Whet care I for his foolish speech ?
'Tie John's voice only my heart can teach
To sing like birds at morn,
But John is jealous, foolish boy,
And my days are shorn of half their joy.
Oh, I am only a farmer's girl,
And John is only a farmer's lad,
But I'd rather be his in his humble life
Than be a "lady" as Squire's wife,
With a restless heart and sad!
But John—BO bashful a boy is he
Is a long while asking my heart of me.
The Farmer's Trials.
Rev. David Swing is rusticating among
his old farmer friends, and sends some
characteristic reflections to the Alliance.
He thinks a farmer's life is not at all rose
tinted,--and proves it too, in these reflec
tions :
"The farmer, if he possesses any emotion
al nature, is mad about half the time at
his neighbor's cow or pig, and is vexed
half the time at the weather. The preach
er who comes home from an empty church
and the lawyer who comes home with an
adverse decision in his pocket, do not cast
themselves on the lounge with a deeper
disgust than fills the farmer's soul when
the fortieth day of rain sets in and his
hired man comes back to the barn from the
muddy field. The average farmer will be
awake at night to see if that cloud will
not pity his parched field, or will not spare
his half-drowned wheat. The Su❑day
School books were wont to tell us children
about farmers who were killed by lightning
because they said bad words about rains in
harvest. In a tract, from which 1 sucked
some theology when a babe, there was a
picture of a streak of lightning running
down the pitchfork of an infidel who had
in his anger pointed his bay-irons toward
the clouds that were weeping on his well
cured timothy. To what information this
tract afforded, additional knowledge has
been added in subsequent years, so that I
new hazard the opinion that the average
farmer is mad at the weather about half
the time, and that the other portion of his
time robbed of serenity by the strange
conduct of the man and animals that occu
py the adjacent farm. Neither preaching,
nor law, nor medicine, nor literary pur
suits are so at the mercy of the weather,
as are the hopes of him who tills the soil.
And to the torments of mind which the
weather brings, throw in some mental
pangs caused by the late frosts and fiy,
and rust, and wind, and cheat, and much
of the roseate hues which tip the shingle
of the country home fade.
What we all want is honorable work
and good food and fresh air, and some
learning, and some fun, and some friends,
and some sort of an honorable name, and
then, beyond those ideas, it does not mat
ter in the least whether we hold in our
hand A piOW crook, or an engine -lever, or
a goose quill. _ _
How to Wash Flannels.
I can tell you how to wash flannels, and
if I could show you little skirts I have
that have been worn year after year, and
are as soft as when new, you would not
doubt the efficacy of my way. The secret
is to rinse in water of the same tempera.
ture as ;the wash water. Sometimes I
use soap and cold water, and my flan_
nets look just as well as if I wash in
the Budging water. Some say never rub
soap on flannels, but I do on the soiled
spots, and have never suffered a shrinkage
from it. I usually have a 'rinsing water
slightly blued, about as warm as my suds,
and wring the flannels into it. Rinse,
wring, strech well, and hang up directly.
When they are dry do not sprinkle, but
lay within the folds of other garments,
quite damp, and rolled up hard. I believe
sprinkling flannels helps shrink them.
Iron well, and with only a moderately
)bested iron.— Correspondence Chicago
Tribune.
SUMMER PRUNING. -It is very useful
to give a little attention, and in the proper
season, to the summer pruning of fruit
trees and bushes. The too rampant growth
should be pinched back and the too crowd•
ed branches thinned, which will give in
creased strength to what is allowed to
remain. Raspburry bushes have been
sending up their sprouts, which are to bear
the fruit of next year ; only as many
should be allowed to grow as are wanted
for next year's crop, and these should be
pinched back at the ends to ensure ripen
ing of the wood. Pear trees can also be
pruned in summer, and apple trees, and
will suffer much less than if the limbs are
allowed to grow large and then sawed off,
leaving% large wound to be healed. Stone
fruit will not bear the saw so well as the
apple and pear, and will be especially bene
fitted by judicious pinching of the green
wood.—Massachusetts Ploughman.
BRAIN work and that of the clearest
kind comes into profitable play quite as
well nu the farm as anywhere else. Look
ahead, get a just view of the position ;
have plowing, sowing and harvesting, and
selling all done at a proper time. Never
hurry, but always drive work ahead. Know
in the evening what you intend to do the
next day. Have your rainy day and your
clear day occupation designed beforehand.
Always bring into requisition the full
means for compassing the designed ends.
In short, study and understand your busi
ness, and you will enjoy it and thrive on
it.
BISCUIT.—Two quarts of flour, one
tablespoonful lard, one teaspoonful soda,
half teaspoonful salt; mix with cold water,
and beat well.

Baby Guy.
By NilMe,..l
With eyes so blue,
And brow so fair;
With rosy cheeks,
And dimples rare.
With winning wall,
And smiles so sweet
With trusting love,
Our own to meet.
Into our home
Came Baby Guy,
Bright and merry
Coy and shy.
Into our lives
A new life came—
Lives so many.
But never the same—
Into our hearts
A deep love grew ;
O'er fond !lopes
A blessing new.
Unto a life
Of , pain and joy—
God guard his path !
Came our baby boy.
Out of our love
We'd make for him
A path in life
And free from sin.
Unto the Father
Praying to keep,
,potless and perfect
His life complete.
Through hopes and fears
All for the best,
Content with God
To let it rest.
Good-Night Words.
The last waking thoughts of a child
have a peculiar power over his mind and
heart, and are influential in fixing his
impressions and shaping his character for
all time. When he turns from play and
playmates, and leaves the busy occupations
of his little world to lie down by himself
to sleep, a child has a sense of loneliness
and dependence which he does not feel at
any other time. Then he craves sympa
thy ; he appreciates kindness ; he is griev
ed by harshness or cold neglect. Ha w
glad he is to kneel by his mother's knee
in prayer, or to have his father kneel with
him as he prays ! How he enjoys words of
approval or encouragement when they
precede the good-night kiss from either
parent!! With what warm and grateful
affection his young heart glows as he feels
the tender impress of his mother's hand or
lips upon his forehead before he drops
asleep! How bright and dear that home
seems to him at such an hour!! How
sorry he is for every word or act of un
kindness which he then recalls from his
conduct of the day ! How ready he is to
make new resolves and purposes of better
doing for the future ! Whatever else a
child is impatient to grow away from, he
does not readily outgrow the enjoyment of
his kind mother's good-night. As long as
she is willing to visit his bedside, and give
him a kiss with a loving word just before
he goes to sleep, he is sure to count that
a privilege of his home as something above
price, and without which he would have a
sense of sad luck. And no time do her
tender words sink deeper into his heart or
make an impression more abiding and
influential. But many parents lose sight
of this truth. Their last words at night
to their children are by no means their
pleasantest. Indeed, there is perhaps no
one thing in which parents more common
ly err than in impatient or unloving words
to their children when the little ones are
going to bed. The parents are tired, and
their stock of patience is at the lowest.
If the children are not as quiet and order
ly and prompt as they should be, the
parents rebuke them more sharply than
they would for similar offenses earlier in
the day. Too often children go to bed
smarting under a sense of injustice from
their parents, and brood over their troubles
as they quiet themselves down to sleep, so
that their little hearts are embittered and
calloused through the abiding impressions
of the wrong they have suffered, or the
harshness they have experienced while
they were most susceptible to the influ
ence for good or ill.
Christianity and the Children.
God, in all ages, has manifested a special
interest in and care for the children. We
may well call Him "Father." At the giving
of the law from Sinia the little ones were
remembered': "Thou shalt teach them
diligently unto thy children, and shall
talk about them when thou sittest in thine
house," etc., Deut. vi. 7. Oh, that Christ
ians would speak more to each other in
their own way about spiritual things and
especially in the presence of the children.
God manifest in the flesh took an equally
intense delight in the children. We can
see them in imagination climbing on his
knee, and nestling in his bosom, while he
smiles sweetly on them and permitted them
to feel the beatings of his loving heart.
We cannot forget his parting command to
Peter, and through Peter to every disciple :
"Feed my lambs."
Christianity is the only religion in the
world that lovingly cares for the children.
Mohammadenism despises them. Brah
manism and Hindooism were wont to leave
to die, or willingly destroyed them, until
British law intervened fur their protection.
Nearly all the superstitious and forms of
heathenism treat them with barbarity.
The religion of Christ alone lavishes on
them tender affection, claims them for God
and seeks to train them for eternity.
The Christian church ought to be the
spiritual nursery for the young. She ought
to provide for them first and not last. It
is the grandest and most productive work
to which the Church can lay its hand, and
should not be done anyhow or by anybody.
It demands the highest and most efficient
instrumentality.
But, after all, the home is the place
where the young character is moulded and
formed. And the mo-t potent force in
the home is the mother's influence ; her
teaching, her example, her prayers, not
only for, but with her children.—Rev. TV.
Marshall, London.
IT is better that joy should be spread
over all the day in the form of strength
than that it should be concentrated into
ecstacies, full of danger, and followed by
reactions.—Emerson.
MANY who have escaped the rocks of
gross sin have perished in the hands of
self-righteousness.

Ma. 11. R. STEVENS : —Dear Sir-1 wish to give you this
testimony, that you may know, and let others know,
what Vegetine has done for me. About two years ago a
small sore came on my leg; it soon became a large
ulcer, so troublesome that I conoalted the doctor, but I
gid no relief, growing worse from day to day. I sufb,red
terribly ; I could not rest day or night ; I was so reduced
my friends thought 1 would never recover ; I consulted
a doctor at Columbus. I followed his advice: it did no
good. I can truly say I was discouraged. At this time
I was looking over lily newspaper; I saw your advertise
ment of Vegetine, the "Great Blood Purifier" throlewnsing
the blood from all Impurities, curing Humors, Ulcers,
I Raid to my family, I will try some of the Vegetino.
Before I had used the first bottle I began to feel better.
I made up my mind I had got the right medicine at last.
I could now sleep well nights. 1 continued taking the
Vegetine. I took thirteen bottles. My health is good.—
The Ulcer is gone, and lam able to attend to business. I
paid about four hundred dollars for medicine and doctors
before [ bought the Vegetine. I have recommended
Vegetine to others with good success. I always keep a
bottle of it in the house now. It is a most excellent
medicine. Very respectfully yours. F. ANTLIONI.

DORCHESTER., Mace., Jane 11
DR. STEVIN/C—Dear Sir,—l feel it my duty to say one
word in regard to the great benefit I have received from
the use of one of the greatest wonders in the world ; it is
your Vegetine. I have been one of the greatest sufferers
for the last eight years that ever could he living. I do
sincerely thank my God and your Vegetine for the relief
I have got. The Rheumatism has pained me to such an
extent, that my feet broke out in sores. For the last
three years I have not been able to walk; now I can walk
and sleep, and do my work as well as ever I did, and I
must say I owe it all to your blood purifier, Vegetine.

BOOTS AND SHOES,
AT SHAFFER'S NEW STORE.
THE subscriber would respectfully inform his
old friends and customers, that he has just re
ceived from the East a large and well selected stock
of Boots and Shoes, for men, women and children,
which he is prepared to sell a trifle lower than any
other establishment in town. Being a practical
shoemaker, and having had considerable experi
ence, he flatters himself that his stock cannot be
surpassed in the county.
Give him a call, at the
CHEAP BOOT AND SHOE STORE,
