If you're ev. r going to love mo, Love me now, wlill" I can know All the sweet and tender feelings Which from r< al affection tlow. Love me now while I am living, Do not wait till I am gone. And then chisel it in marble— Warm love words on ice-cold stone. If you've d< >r. sweet thoiu his about me, Why not whisper them to me? Don't you know ’twouid m-'il' me happy, And as glad as glad can be? If you wait till I am sb • ping, Ne'< r to wak'-n lure again. There’ll be walls of earth between us. And 1 couldn't hear you then. If you knew some ono was thirsting For a drop of water stv< > t. Would you be so slow to bring it? Would you step with laggard feet? There are tender hearts all round us Who are thirsting tor our love; Why withhold from tin m what nature Makes them crave all else above? I won't neid your kind caresses When tin- grass grows o'i r my face; I won't crave your love or kisses In my last, low resting place. So, then, if you love me any, If it's but a litllo b.t, Ijet me know it now, while living, 1 can own and treasure it. COMPLIMENTS OF tIiE SEASON.

I hav<- given this hasty review of the general subject, but g-n-ral facts lose mueli value If there can b>» no practicable, application of them at home. So my mind begins to wander over Georgia to the many young rrtiders of The Weekly Constitution, and 1 think how delightful it. would bo if they Would form study classes that they might, really know all about the creatures which confront them at every turn and with whom there exists such a state of entire d. | .-ndeii' - .- for comfort and happiness. Herbert Spencer, the world’s authority on education, iajs that the rudiments of science form the best basis ibr intellectual culture. This is rtainly a science and the accuracy of attention to minutiae thus cultivated will boos great aid in other pursuits. When Agassiz, the great nat uralist, was invited Io speak before a b-arned body on entomology h<- began by banding to each person present a grass hopper. He said that, he intended then to discuss grasshoppers, but he could not trust, even th. so m< n to know how many cm-s ami kgs the creature -had and how they were placed. Just think how mo notony or ennui, as the French call it, will fly far from us when w-rything around ns takes on its new .and sanctified ■ value. While wo estimate at its full value th- mental uplift, wo would ■ specially stress the heart culture that would go with it. Sentiment ami intelligence, wihat wonders would they xvork. and who knows what naturalists might bo developed by : this study. 1 think I sec some people ■ raising th- ir hands in horror nt th.? thought ; of joining any more organizations. Well, don’t do it—just now anyway. AH I ask is you provide simple books for your family, in which rlu> nature and habits of animals can be learned and eul.tiva.to t-ie powers of ob . rvation by examination of all species with which you come in. a.-tual daily contact. l-ivery houo .hold will then be a. protective association, , whether it has connection with the na i tlonal or not. This class would be one in which I should strongly advise eo-oduca- - tion, for each alike n--ds to be taught I the preeiousnvs.s of life to all creatures, . and the blessing will not be alone to the animals which are allowed to dwell in , p.-ace and comfort, but will be doubled and redoubled to th.- young people themselves, for S.‘ k.-sp. are. the wonderful seer, said of m- r. y: "It bless, th him that gives as • him that takes.” Coleridge- was in accord i with the. spirit of this great law with 1 1--Ve io all when he wrote: "He prayeth best when ho lovet'h best All things both great and small.

C.—l In dorse the sentiment of the sister who ob jects to so many recipes in our Kingdom. Surely there Is not a family anywhere that does not own ono or more cookery books. If there Is any one anywhere that waits cookery books 1 will give them away glad postage. I have tljem by the hundred. Let our Kingdom have some thing more interesting 1 >an recip-’S. rii.-ie is nothing more tiresome than the otten repeated “write with stump." There is a right wav amt a wrong way about every t ling and any one’s conscience wilt t-Il them that in cx<-hang:tig it Is not fair for postage both ways. I Jat-ls ivt tl . <'‘‘ls • bulbs from tho postofflee of "Koester, M 0..” without any name on It. I hav- tried to tind out who sent it, but have fHI. d. Sisters, always put vottr name on every letter and package oi every kind, on the upper lefthand cor ner. It saves time, trouble and hard feel ings. H grieves mo to see so much said about "Millennial Hewn.' and kindred sub jects I 'vivo bad much sorrow mid much bo ivy trouble and I have found but one comfort- that is the cross of J< sus Christ. If wo will look only to His life and cross, we will liml enough to carry us to heaven. wHboiu striving to pierce into the dark nivst r'es that are mostly made by piale and f- nnibi cranks, who have nothing to do and ar. Satan’s toofs for that reason. I haw known of-a ntime-br of wenk-m nd ed persons Who lost their reason by’ read ing mid studying such publications, and have known others who died from it. Like Paul, i i now of no d tri ■ at cept of "Jesus Christ ind Him crucified. I havo two orphan girls, six and seven years old. They are handsome, bright children. The little one has had asthma for years. I got them from an orphan age. They have improved greatly, and t think rue disease almost broken up. 1 filled a bottle wi’h light wood splinters and ti a poured wisked over them. V her. threat.-m-d with asthma T give her a drink from tho mouth of the bottle. I have a large quantity of garden corn, marina fat ■p.-.-is. lima -beam;, kale, melon, early su gar pumpkins, okra, pepper and flower w . ,Is. 1 would like to exchange lor a wrap or anything for these little girls or new goods. If any of the ssters haw r boon or anything tiny wish dy id I will dye them for half. Do not write with stamp, I will pay my own postage. Mrs. S. C. Thompson, Welborn, Fla.—-I see In reading the letters of the Kingdom that some sisters are divided as to millen nial dawn. I can only say lam glad to see such division in my day which Is proof of the "ingatherings,” but am sorry to see such a spirit as to want to de stroy another's private property just be cause it does not suit their views. This spirit put Into practice would destroy all books for al! their enemies.. But, dear sisters, let us reason together thus: No evil brings tho fruit of peace and love; then If this book brings peace and joy ami a loving disposition, It must boa good book. If it makes better husbands ami wives, parents ami neighbors. Is this not proof : Are these principles not Godlikeness? But, dear sister.', remember th.it those who love truth or rejoice in hope must suff-u contradictions, for truth is sown only for tho lovers of It. for no ono seeks a tiling or rejoices In finding a thing if they did rot wish It. You know Abel suffered do,i(ji from a brother because he saw in his typical Lamb a re-urn from - v : l. H !.■; not heaven we want, but fr- edom from sin; and God has promised freedom from sin through Christ, and "millennial dawn.” opens up the mysteries of God in <'!ir -t, which is our hope, which -hope brings joy, peace and love. “J.
