IOC KISSED HE.
BV JOSEPHINE. S..HUNT.
You kissed me! My forehead dropped low on your
breast, „ *
With a feeling of shelter and infinite rest,
While the holy emotion my tongue dared not speak
Flushed up like a flame from uiy heart to uiy cheek!
Your arms held me fast, oh! your arms were so bold!
Heart beat against kearUn their passionate hold.
Your glances seemed drawing my soul through my
As the eyes, draws the mist from the to the skies;
sun sea
And your lips clung to mine till I prayed in my
bliss; unclasp from that kiss.
They might never rupturous
You kissed me! My heart and my breath and my
w 11 i
In delicious joy for the moment stood still;
Life had for me then no temptations, no charms,
No vision of and pleasure the outside of your anus,
Of the joy peace that are given the blest,
1 would fling my white robes unrepiningly down,
And tear from my forehead its l>eautiful crown,
To nestle once more in that haven of rest,
With your lips upon mine—and your head on my
breast.
You kissed swooned me! My like soul, drunken in a bliss so divine, foolish
Reeled and a man with
wine; delicious
And T thought while M were to die there, if death
Would come my lips were yet moist with your
breath.
’Twere delicious to die, if my heart might grow cold
While your fold. arms wrapped me round in that passion
ate
And these are the questions I ask day and night ;
Must my lips taste but once such exquisite delight?
Would you care if your breast was my shelter as
then; here would kiss
And if you were you me again?
The following has been tacked ou to the foregoing
by the St. Paul /Wr Pre». It is rather clover,
though not iu the same strain of sentiment as the forc~
going:
I kissed you.

My act was the loud lightning that glances and thrills

A And’ShW maid-not toctoi match-box—was ^encircling clasped yoS^harms

I kissed you. The zepnvr on tiptoe passed by,
The moou with a kerchief cloud hid her soft eyes ,
From the bough that swayed o’er us, all silvered
with dew,
With half-smothered titter the katydid flew.

’Twas a cold, snowy night in the

wending in his wav through the deep

residence of Miss Thompson. Entering
the house, he met her on the threshold,
and handed her a seabd letter. Tear

read as follows:

the death of Mr. Walter Sanford, in my employ,
who died this morning from thc effects of in
juries received by becoming entangled in tho

TOPICS FOE THE FARM.
Curing n Bad Habit.—Feeding a sow
with plenty of oats, raw or cooked, and
seasoned with salt, is given to remedy
her disposition to eat her pigs.
kbetiing Clover Hay.—Too much
clover hay. especially it a little musty,
should never be given "a horse, as it is
more or less apt to bring on a cough.
Interfering Horses..—When a horse
interferes no tim- should be lost in hav
ing the shoes removed, and others sub
stituted which will correct the evil.
Mixed Husbandry.—Mixed hus
bandry is what we n*!ed. The farmer
who grows sotnething of everything
adapted to his locality will be safer,
and in the long run will save more than
he who devotes his energies and land
mainly to one or two crops. ,
Think Over II.—A. W. Cheever,
Boston, Mass., said in an address be
fore an agricultural convention: “I
have carefully gone over the statistics of
farms, animals, crops, and cost of
fences, *and found that it takes on the
average for the whole .country *1 24
stock from eating kCep up J, iy-..4o 1 ^ worth "oHh of of
Cr0p8/ ’
| Grafting.—An
excellent grafting
wax is? composed The of beeswax, rosin and
tailow. proportions are—four parts
of rosin, one part of beeswax, and one
parted beef tdllow. Melt them together
in a skillet, or tin cup, and stir well, it
should remain m the vessel aud use as
needed.
Preparing the Horses.—A horse that
is to be used for work, says the National
Live Stock intervals, Journal, should be exercised
at regular day for at least half au
hoUf oh every fdr Which he is not
required for work. Many sudden
deaths in winte^and spring result from
the neglect of this salutary precau
tion. Certain diseases of the feet, too,
may be warded df by daily Use*

young is injurious, both to the health of

j have noticed upon our own premi

we allowed young trees to bear unreason
ably, it atrected iheir future bearing sincere- for
two or three years. We have
duced the early product of a tree from
one to three specimens, the number be
ing increased with the increased age and
vigor of the tree, and have found the
