Friends ot Long Ago.
WJjob 1 ??iL in the twilight gloaming,
And the busy si roots grow ?tili,
I dream of the wide, green meadows,
And the old" house on the hill.
I can see the rose* blooming
About tiie doorway low,
Again my heart gives greeting
To the fr'ends of long ugo?
Dear long ago !
J can arc my mother pitting,
With life's Brow flakes in her hair,
And she smiles above bet knitting,
And her face is Bail)try fair.
And 1 see my father reading
From ?bc Bible on his knee,
And again 1 hear him praying
As be used to pray for me?
bo long ago!
3 gec all the dear old faces
Of the boys and girls at home.
As I saw them in the dear old days
Before we learned to roam.
And 1 sing the obi songs over
With the friends i used to know,
And my heart forgets its Borrows
In its dream of long ago?
Dear long ago!
Jfow widely our fpet have wandered
From our old home's tender ties,
{Some are beyond the ocean,
And some are beyond .lie skies.
My heart grows sad with thinking
Of the friends 1 used to know ;
Perhaps I shall luect in heaven
All the loved ones of long ago ?
Dear long ago 1

precedented for doing a large range of
sowing In textile fabrics and leather. Its
moticri9 aro continuous, admitting of an
extraordinary rnto of speed, either by
titormi or foci power. Every motion of the
treadle makes six stitches, thus produc
ing about ono-third more work in a day
than other Sewing Machines. It has nq
"?a^?teS^ stop motions, and tightens the stitch with
the noodio out of the fabric. It uses the
well-known Wilson Compound Food on both sides of the noodio. It
hts two-thirds less parts than any other first-class Sowing Machine.
Its arm is fully eight and one-half inches long and five and one-half
Inches high, and tho whole Machine is very compactly and scion?
