HOW IvLOVE YOU.
You ask me how I you, dear?
your arise,
And torn by passionate hope and fear,
Look nt me from your questioning eyes.
Ah! sweet imploring eyes, from whence
ShAll I draw fitting words to fashion
The heart's unspoken eloquence
Into the story of my pnssion ?
Beyond our feeble earthly sight,
Behind the soul's deep mystery,
Love dwelleth?an eternAl light
That never shone on land or sen!
Sometimes a burning ray eolipses
From that s'ill glory unaware,
Touches some lip with flame?and shapes
Itself into n song of prayer.
Some wondrous inspiration wrought
On posy's gold-lettered pages,
? That strikes the mhster-key of thought,
And rolls in music down the ages.
For only can the poet's art
V Interprit to the listening throng
V The glowing language of the heart,
Breathed into some undying song.
' And so, dear heart, I may not tell
IIow all my life is thine?nor why?
I only know I lovcrlhee well,
For, when the heavenly day hath dawned, [
And earthly things have passed away 1
In the immeasurable years beyond,
My love will still be thine for ay !

Build Bar us
The value and necessity of a good
barn upon every farm becomes every
year more vnd more apparent. A
large amount of the harvested products
of the farm is annually wasted
because there is no proper storage
therefor. This very waste, if saved,
would build a good barn in less than
five years.
As all farm improvements should
be made with a view to permanence
and economy, barns should take.the
place of the hovels, seeds and other
make- shifts which the farmer is
compelled to improvise in cases of
emergency. These arc neither
economical, convenient or elegant.
One good building, in which all
farm products can be stored, all implements
housed and all stock she'r
; tered, is what the wants of every
farmer require. The sooner our
farmers recognize this fact the bet"
tm* it will be for them, financially
and otherwise. Such a building
will add a tangible value to the farm,
I while the other mis-called itnproveI
inents carry about thrm an air of
! poverty and dilapidation that
detractfcfrom the actual value and
entails continual and expensive
repairs. , v??
A bam should be built on well
drained grouftd and the location
should be such as to make it easy of
access from all parts of the farm.
Everything entering into its construetion
should be of the most substantial
character. No shoddy work or material
should be allowed. Properly
built, it will last for several generations
and prove a constant source of
satisfaction to the owner.?Our
Home Journal.
Protecting Trees Against
Worms.
The bandage system is the only
effectual production we have yet
seen against the operations of the
worm in fruit trees. It is simply to
bandage the bottom of the tree with
any kind of muslin or cloth and tie
it, letting the bandage be about six
inches above ground and two inches
below . It should be applied as
soon as the ground is in a fit condition
to go upon. These bandages
should be removed at the end of
October, but it will do no harm to
let them alone, only see that they ic"
| main in good condition for another
season. As long as this is con tinted
pre defy the worm. The beetle lays
' its eggs an inch or two above tbe
ground early in the spring, that is
, as soon as the warm days in March
I will admit of its ctftning forth from
I its winter-quarters ; the eggs are
soon hatched by tbe sun, being
laid on the sun-side of the trunk,
and the young grub finis its way
down to the soft bark beneath the
soil where it gradually works its
way in. The bandage prevents
both the laying of tho eggs and the
descent of the grub. Let doubters
try it. One man will bandage two
hundred trees in a da}'. It may also
protect the peach tree in the same
way.
To Keep Ilosw Blooming.
As soon as they have formed
their first flowers in the open ground,
pinch off the end of the first shoot,
and as soon as the rose is fully
opened, pick it off. No rose should
be left to fade upon tho bush, as
when so left it exhausts the plant in
the formation of seed. As the plants
grow, pinch back tho ends of the
shoots when they have grown six
inches, and rub out all puny shoots,
thus keeping.the plants in a rounded
open bush form. If strong shoots
alone are left to grow, they will
soon control the strength of the
plant, and the flowers will be few
and often of imperfeot form. Should
the season be hot and dry, a mulch
of fine, fresh grasa or sawdust, or
moss from the woods, should be
placed all over the soil, three inches
deep, and at night watered
thoroughly, not sprinkled, but wet
liko a day's rain. The Hybrid
Perpetuals or Noisettes require this
pruning or pinching back more
promptly than the Teaa/" Bengals
or Bourbons.?E. R. Elliott in
(Jnuntru Grntlemnn.
A Winter Peach.
The Petersburg (Va./) Rural
Mttscngcr thus describes tnis fruit,
which, it says, originated with Mr,
James Hawkins, of Dinwiddie, Yu.,
before the war, and which is called
the "Hawkins Winter Peach." The
gentleman has bad. fo? some years
trees in full bearing:
"Tho fruit does not begin to
ripen until the leaves have fallen
from the tree in November; is in no
way injured by the.severe frosts of
that seitson, and hangs on tho trees
until it assumes a beautiful red
cheek. When ripe they may be
picked and put away to bo carried
to market at leisure?say any time
in November or early December.
The fruit is largo (the first important
item in o market peach), color
whitish, with red cheek, flesh whitish,
rich, juicy and pleasant. It will
keep far into December without j
rotting. It can be handled pretty
much the same as apples."
Only well rotted mannre should
bo used in the flower garden. If
the soil is of a strong loamy nature,
it will be benefited by an application
iff sau'd with tbtJ Sfil.
Sloths in Carpets.
This paragraph will be interesting
to housekeepers, who have carpets
to keep from being moth-eaten.
Mrs. S. T. WM says the Country
Gentleman, has tried salt and
various other applications, and still
the insects trouble her carpets. We
advise her to try the plan proposed
by Prof. A. J. Cook, in his report
on injurious insects. He advises to
take a wet sheet or cloth, lay it
upon the carpet, and tnen go over
tbe wet cloth with a hot flat iron,
the steam thus produced will penetrate
the carpet, and not only
destroy living moths hut cook their
eggs, and prevent them from hatching.
It is. cheap and easy of
application, and we have no donht
that it will prove effective. The
only wonder is, that no one fyas
thought of it before.
Cure for Poison.
Take a heaping teaspoonfnl of
common salt and as much ground
mustard, stir them in a cup of warm
water and drink quickly. . This
preparation will have hardly reached
the 8tobiach before it returns, bring
ing with it the cause of Jh? trouble.
Lest any remnant of tho poison remain,
let the white of an egg or a
teacup of strong coffeo be swallowed
as soon as the stomach is quiet,
bocapsc those very common articles
nullify a larger number of virulent
poisons than almost any medicine.
