A Still Day in Autumn.
I love to wander through the woodlands hoary,
In the soft gloom of an autumnal day,
When the Summer gathers up her robes of glory.
And like a dream of beauty, glides away.
How through each loved, familiar path she lingers,
Serenely smiling through the golden mist
Tinting the wild grape with her dewy fingers,
Till the cool emerald turns to amethyst.
Kindling the faint stars of the hazel, shining
To the light the gloom of Autumn's mouldering
halls
With hoary plumes the clematis entwining,
Where o'er the rock her withered garland falls.
Warm lights are on the sleepy uplands waning
Beneath dark clouds along the horizon rolled,
Till the slant sunbeams through their fringes rain
ing
Bathe all the hills in melancholy gold.
The moist wind breathes of crisped leaves and
flowers
In the damp hollows of the woodland sown,
Mingling the freshness of autumnal showers
Wit% !ploy airs from cedar alleys blown.
Reside the brook and on the cumbered meadow,
Where yellow fern-tufts fleck the faded ground,
With folded lids beneath their palmy shadow,
The gentian nods, in dewy slumbers bound.
Upon those soft-fringed lids the bee sits brooding,
Like a fond lover loth to say farewell,
Or, with shut wings, through silken folds intruding,
Creeps near her heart his drowsy tale to tell,
The little birds upon the hillside lonely
Slit noiselessly along from spray to spray,
Silent as a sweet wandering thought, that only
Shows its bright wings and softly glides away .
The scentless flowers, in the warm sunlight dream
ing,
Forget to breathe their fullness of delight ;
And through the tranced wood soft airs are stream
ing
Still as the dew-fall of a summer night.
So, in my heart a sweet, unwanted feeling
Stirs, like the wind in Ocean's hollow shell,
Through all secret chambers sadly stealing,
Yet finds no words its mystic charm to tell.
Pieking Apples.
Hand picking should always be resorted
to, especially with winter apples, else the
fruit will not keep long or present a sale
able appearance when laid down in the
market for sale. Some few varieties ripen
irregularly, and should be gathered
accordingly. In most cases the later
varieties of apples should be left on until
late, so as to fully color up, when they
should be carefully hand picked, only the
sound, unspecked ones being taken. A
bag, with two of the extreme corners
drawn neatly together, and slung over the
right shoulder and hanging under the left
arm is the most convenient thing to pick
in, as it is readily used either on the tree
or when the picker stands on a ladder.
When the bag is full the apples are care.
fully emptied into baskets conveniently
near, and the bag filled again. When the
fruit is picked convey it to the fruit room,
which should be a cool, dry and dark place
where it should remain until the time
arrives for packing. While picking, keep
the apples in the shade after they are
picked and before they are removed to the
fruit room. While some persons, new to
the business, do not think it makes much
difference if the fruit is a little mixed, we
have always found it best to keep the
varieties separate and to market them the
same way, even though the quantity be
small. And this is why we have advocated
continually, planting but few varieties,
and those the best, for when the trees
come into bearing you will have enough of
each sort to make a fair marketing, which
would not be the case in many varieties,
if but few trees of each variety, were
planted. In packing apples they should
not be barreled until they are tree from
moisture or Impress on the outside, else
they will soon decay, become damaged,
and be unsaleable. The barrel should be
filled rather more than even full, and the
head then pressed into its place with a
screw and appliance for the purpose. By
this meant the apples are prevented from
being Vruised in handling the barrels in
transportation.

Take Care of the Tools.
We "lever knew &farmer to take an axle
or a beetlentrd go around and break a wheel
here and knock in a brace there, and crack
this section and clip that one among his
farm machines, wagons and implements
—that is unless he was drunk. But s'enie
of them—pretty good farmers, too, in
most thing, get about the same results in
a roundabout way. They stow the mow
ing machine in a leaky shed, where it is
used as a turkey roost; the lighter instru
ments are put away where the cattle knock
them down and break them; ' the carriage
and harness are kept where the stable
fumes spoil the varnish; and a general slip
shod style knocks off 50 per cent., from
the value of the farming equipment. The
firmer who "keeps things shipshape" is
generally the thriving man. "Down-at
the-heel-activeness" spreads the black frost
of a mortgage over a farm nearly as quick
as rum-drinking.
Apples in Sand.
A writer in the London Garden says
that he ends fruit to keep best in perfectly
dry sand. lie keeps fruit in this way ali
the year round. lie has had French crabs
two years old. The Catillac pear has
remained sound twelve months. The
fruit mast be sound when stored, and the
sand must be quite dry. The chief ad-
vantages of packing in sand are, the esclu•
sion of air currents, the preservation from
changes of temperature, and the absorption
of moisture, which favors decay. Much
will depend on the apartment in which the
experiment is tried, a dry or cool one being
best.
ITOP YEAST.—Here i 3 an excellent re
ceipt for yeast. Boil two ounces of the
best hops in four quarts of water, fur half
an hour. Strain it, and let the liquor cool
down to new milk warmth. Then put in
a small handful of salt and half a pound of
sugar. Beat up one pound of flour with
some of the liquor, and mix all well to•
gether. The third day add three pounds of
potatoes, boiled and mashed fine. Let . it
stand till the next day, and then strain it
through a eullender to take out any lumps,
bottle it, corking tight, and set in a cool
place, and it is better not bottled till it
has done working, say the day after it is
strained, so it will not burst the corks out
of the bottles.— loronto Globe.
COFFEE STAINS.-If you desire to hare
your table linen free from coffee stains
after being washed, the stains tflust be
soaped before putting into water; this
will make them disappear.

Never a day dawns but brings its own task ;

Some are chosen to sweep and others to spin,
Some to sow, some to reap, while some gather in.
Some must build ships, and some guide the helm,
Some fashion our garments and some rule the

Some work in the Shadow and some in the sun,
Some in joy, some in pain; but the Master is one,
Calling all to their tasks, portioning each his

As he ceases his toil at the word of the Lord.
Work while the day lasts, work with a will ;
Soon will the night come, when all will be still;
Sweet will it be, as set of the sun,

Bishop Simpson's Life Saved by
Prayer.
I remember once when there was a con
ference at Mount Vernon, at which I was
present, Bishop Janes was presiding one
afternoon, and, after reading a dispatch
saying that Bishop Simpson was dying in
Pittsburgh, asked that the conference
unite in prayer that his life might be
saved. We'knelt down, and Mr. Taylor,
the great street preacher of California, led
in one of his beautiful prayers. After the
first few sentences, in which I joined with
my whole heart, my mind seemed to be at
ease, and I did not pay much attention to
the rest of the prayer, only to notice its
beauty. When we arose from our knees
I turned to a brother and said, "Bishop
Simpson will not die ; I feel it." I then
told him how the feeling came over me,
and he assured me that be had experienced
the same impression. The word was pass
ed around, and over thirty ministers who
were present said they had the same feel
ing. I took my book and made a note of
the hour and circumstance. Several
months afterward I met Bishop Simpson,
and asked him what he did to recover his
health. He did not know, but the phy
sician had said it was a miracle. He said
that one afternoon, when at the point of
death, the doctor left him, saying that he
should be left alone for half an hour. At
the end of that time the doctor returned,
and immediately noticed a great change in
the patient. He was startled and asked
the family what they had done for the
Bishop, and they replied nothing at all.
That half hour I found, by making
allowances for difference in localities, was
just the time when we were praying for
him at Mount Vernon. from that time
on be steadily improved, and has lived to
bless the Church and humanity. God
does answer prayer for physical good. I
know He does. On the God who has so
often answered my prayers I will still rely,
scientific men and philosophers to the
contrary notwitlistandinz.—Bishop Bow-
man
God's Plans Not Clear.
Ile knows but little coneerin!). God's
plan who thinks that ho knows all. He
sees but dimly the workings of God's provi
dence, who supposes that he can read
'them clearly. It is not from any revela
tion of God's dealings with His creatures
that we are justified in believing that all
which we wish to know concerning them
is disclosed; for God declares no truth to
His children more plainly, than that mys
tery enshrouds himself, His habitation,
and His providences. God 'doeth great
things past finding out; yea, and wonders
without number.' We see something of
His goodness and power , 'but how little a
portion is heard of Him.' 'The secret
things belong unto the Lord our God.'
'There is no searching of his understand
ing.' Even the Son of God, when he
wondered over God's ways with the child
ren of men, attempted no solving of the
mystery, but his submissive words were,
'Even so, Father; for so it seemed good in
thy sight.' And to his inquiring dis
ciples his declaration was—'lt is not for
you to know the times or the seasons
which the Father bath put in his own
power.'
Life is a mystery. Death is a mystery.
Sin is a mystery. Redemption is a mys
tery. 'And without controversy, great is
the mystery of godliness.' Why was sin
Permitted ? Why by one man's disobedi
ence were many made sinners, and death
caused to pass upon all men ? Why is
there prosperity for the wicked ? Why is
there suffering for the righteous ? Why
do wars eoutinue and pestilence raga, and
famines prevail ? 'Why is that
The air is full of farewells to the dying,
And tnournings for the dead?
At the best 'now we see through a glass
darkly.' Not even Ile who 'brought life
and immortality to light in the gospel
makes plain the methods of His dealing
with those who follow Ilim. •
Between the mysteries of death and life,
Thou staudest, loving, guiding—not explaining
We ask, and thou art silent.
And where our Lord is silent. His
disciples must wait in submissive faith.—
Sunday School Times.
SMILES.—Smiles are the offspring of
love fostered by kisd feeling. They win
our hearts to pleasantry, and disperse the
dark shadows of care which often hang
gloomily over our paths. Gently they fan
the flame of fond affection, and wake the
soul to heaven born sympathy. Life
would be a weary way without a smile; so
dark, so stern, so desolate. The heart
will sink in sadness unless it meets these
heavenly messengers of warm regard com
ing from those it loves with the glad
tidings of esteem and constancy.
Smiles are too lightly valued ; they are
sacrificed profusely to society, while few
are left for the altar of home. Home,
made so sweet by their presence so like
paradise, becomes a dreary place without
them. Frowns will intrude when smiles
forsake the hearth, and discord reigns
where hearts will not harmonize.
TRUE charity never blows its own horn
leaving that to God.

Kansas, the best winter wheat producing district of the
United States, yielding font 20 to 35 Bushels per acre.
The average yearly rainfall in this county is nearly 33
inches per annum, one-third greater than in the much-ex
tolled Arkansas Valley, which has a yearly rainfall of less
than 23 inches per annum in the same longitude.
Stock-Raising and Wool-Growing are very remunerative.
The winters are short and mild. Stock will live all the
year on grass! Living Streams and Springs are numerous.

Healthiest Climate in the World/ No fever and ague there.
No muddy or impassable roads. Plenty of fine building
tone, lime and sand. These lands are being rapidly set
tled by the best class of Northern and Easternpeople, and
will so appreciate in value by the improvements now be
ing made as to make their purchase at present prices oni
of the very best investments that can be made, aside from
the profits to be derived front their cultivation. Members
of our firm reside in WA-KEENEY, and will show lam .

Although we have reduced our rate, we propose
keeping the St. Cloud up to tnu mondani we al

The Hotel has just been put in the most thorough
order—re-painted, re-frescoed and partially re
furnished—until it presents an appearance of
newness scarcely to be appreciated until seen.
The table will continue to be supplied with the
choicest articles the market affords, while the
