In the same way less perfect people, blessed by the gen erous fairies of memory and imagination, may Mt, as I do now. in the midst of fallen leaves and whistling winds, and call back the green grasses and the summer sun. I see yonder in the glen the darling of our house, the gold gleam in her brown hair, a chain of daisies in her hand, and in her eyes the roguish meditation of a kitten, weary for an instant only of its play, and thinking sly ly of another spring. Thrown baek upon the velvet grass, she is not resting, orily pausing from her bright glances to the tips uf her tiny fingers she is wide awake. 1 them. Never let them stand or lie in muu or enow. 2. Take up lamb bucks early in the i summer, ana keep them up until Decern ber 1st following, when they may be turned out. :i Drop or take out the lowest bars as the sheep enter or leave a ysffd, thtta sav ing broken limbs. 4. Count every day. 5. Begin graining with the greatest care, and use the smallest quantity at first. 0. If a ewe loses her lamb, milk her daily for a few days, and mix alitttlealum with her salt. 7. Let no hogs eat with the slieep, by any means, in the spring. 8. (live the lambs a little mill feed fai time of weaning. ii. Never frighten sheep, if possible to avoid it. 10. Sow rye for weak ones in cold weather, if you can. 11. Separate all weak or thin or sick from those strong, in the fall, and give them special care. 12. If any sheep is hurt, catch it at once and wash the wound and if it is fiy time, apply spirits of turpentine daily, and al ways wash with something healing. If a limb is broken, bind it with splinters tightly, loosening as limb swells. 1 Keep a numlier of good bella on the sheep. 14. Do not let the sheep spoil wool with chaff or burs. But now the merry play Is over, and our pet nestles yonder on the sofa-cushion, tired at liyt in earnest. Slowly the lids fall, and the lingering smile dies out but the flu*h in cheek and lips remains, like the glow after sunset. The gathered buttercups and daisies are loosely held by the fair little hand no shadows, even of dream-land, dis turb the sweet brow's perfect peace. 81ie is fast asleep. In other words, two chromos hang upon the wall, bewitching child-heads, in which every mother sees something of her own dear OIK S, never grown old, and never lost to her, however time or death may have dealt with them.
