THIS DREAM Ol' YOUTH.
London Or afire
(I built mo n ycoi long years ago,
And I fitted It out llko the galleys of old;
Its tails were as white as fresh fallen snow.
And Is bows wero resplendent with crimson
and Bold.
Its bulwarks were firm, andlts masts strongand
tall.
J And a gay-colored fiction on high was spread;
The beauty of Youth led a charm lo It all,
And an Imago of Hopo was Its proud figure
head.
I launched It ono morn In the spring of the year,
When the breezes were low, and tho sunbeams
, were bright;
And I, In the pride of my youth, had no fear
T Of tho strength of tho waves or the gloom of
tho night.
Bo I reamed of tho riches my galley would
bring
From tho lands where no bark had been ever
before:
But the summer pasicd by, and spring wore
round to spring,
And. my vessel returned not, alas, to the
shore.
7
f At length ono dark autumn It came back to me,
But Us masts were all broken, Its bows were
( bare;
Its bulwarks were covered with growth of the
sea,
And tho figure of Hope was no longer there,
"While It broupht mo for freight but the drift of
the wave,
1 The sea foam and weeds that had laid In It
lonRi
And 1 mournfully sighed as I gazed on the
crave
Of the dreams that were bright when life's
heart-beat was strong.
THE LAST PAGE.
To-morrow, Grace to-morrow all my
will"
They were parting In tho laurel walk,
half-way to tho cottage fr6m tho garden
ga'o.
"If I had always been all your own,
Norman! If I had always belonged to
you as I do now."
Ms arm tightened about her, and a lit
tlo cloud cnino Into his eyes which ho
turned from her.
Always hU own?
What did ho know of tho twenty-two
years that lay ltchlnd her? this beauti
ful woman whom ho had met for tho
first time six months ngo, when shocame
to dwell with tho stalil old matron, her
companion, in this littles eottngo of hers,
half iv mile across the cllfl's from his park
gates,
What did ho know? Llttlo enough,
perhaps only that sho was tho ono wo
man In tho world to him.
And yt slin was leaving on tho mor
row for Wyndham Park, the great houso
of thoneiguborliood.
"Norman Wyndham, llko herself, had
no nearer kindred, no ono to consult,
wlun ho fell suddenly and violently In
lovo nothingto Intorfero with this pas
sion of his.
She did not even remonstrate when
lio lixed tho wedding day only a month
after; and sho schooled herself to meet,
Wthaocrtain stately graciousncss, his
many friends, who htul not taken the
smallest notice of her before, but who
now flocked to mako her acquaintance,
as tho neighborhood could not afford to
bo but on tho best of terms with Wynd
ham Park. And so tho morrow was
rtke wedding-day.
But tho cloud in her lover's eyes was
not the shadow of a 'doubt of her, of
whom ho actually knew so llttlo; it was
rather of icalousy that tlicro had been a
timo when sho was not his own. It
was gone almost as soon as come, how
ever, for tho morrow was tho wedding
day. "Tell mo. Norman answer mo,"
sho continued nfter a pause, "could
you bo happy now without mo?"
"Graeol"
It was answer enough for her that
ono word In his thrilling voice. Sho
bent her head, and tho next instant her
litis lust touched his hand.
And before ho could start out of his
amazement, and stop her, tho Hying
whlto llcuro was half-way to tho porch.
"Until to-morrow to-morrow, Nor
man!" was tho good night sho llunj;
bnek to him as sho went.
And then sho hoard tho click of tho

Ono would havo thought sho would

Smeared with n llttlo lampblack, par

and so leave in tho color of his guilt a

Violets, In the leanest shade,

8oft winds, over (lower-fields blown,
By their fragrant breath aro known;
Dew, by freshened leaves confessed,
Wets unseen earth's slumbering breast;
Bills, from out tin bleak htll-slde,
Swell to rivers, deep and wide;
Blvcrs (lowing fast and free,
Widen to the boundless sea;
All great things that move the earth,
To gentle Issues owe their birth;
And soft Influence still Is best,
Bringing comfort, love and rest.
Sweet domestic lovo Is strong
Leads lo right and warns from wrong;
Kindly whispers mightier prove,
And to loftier action move,
Thau tho fretful voice of scorn,
Of contempt and nnecr burn.
WAITING.
Serene, I fold my hands and wait,
Nor caro for wind, or tide, or sea,
I rave no more 'gainst time or fate,
For lol my own shall come to me.
I stay my haste, I mako delays,
For what avails this eager pace I
I stand amid the eternal ways,
And what Is mine Bhall know my face.
Asleep, awnke, by night or day,
The friends I seek arc seeking mc;
No wind can drive my bark astray,
Nor change the tide of destiny.
What matter If I stand alonct
I wait with Joy the coming years;
My heart shall reap where It lias sown,
And garner up Its fruit of tears.
The waters know their own and draw
The brook that springs In yonder bight;
So flows tho good with cipial law
Unto the soul of pure delight.
The stars come nightly to the sky;
The tidal wave Into the tea;
Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high,
Can keep my own nwny from mc.

Dhoura, or Egyptian corn, is attract
ing a great deal of attention in the
Western portion of Kansas, which has
a tlry climate, rno piani grows wen
there, and is found to bo an excellent
grain for tho uso of man and beast. It
is a sort of cane, and grows something
liko sorghum, rno seeu iorms on mo
top of tho stalk, and curves over und
hangs down liko a bunch of grapes. It
looks much liko rice. Olllclal analysis
has shown that it possesses greater
nutritive powers than Indian corn
(maize), and farmers prefer it for stock-
feeding. It yields from fifteen to forty
bushels per acre, and It will stand a
great deal of dry weather. Tho heads
are gauiorou into a wagon, aim mo
grain is threshed out hi a threshing
machine, tho samo ns wheat. It makes
a very palatable Hour when ground, re

Grafting Potatoes.
Farm and Fireside.
An extract from a report on potatoes
exhibited at tho late industrial exhibi
tion nt Toronto, states that Mr. Howo
makes an exhibition of potatoes in tho
first generation after grafting.
Ho takes one potato and scoops out ov
cry eye. in tho Hash of it lie inserts a
slnirlo eye from tho other potato timt lie
desires to cross. Tho result is that tho
ovo grows, but in its early days it feeds
upon tho juices of tho potato to which it
lias boon united, and tho new tubers
grown from It partake of tho character
ot uoiu parents, in prooi 01 ims mv.
Howo shows progeny from tho union of
a red potato with an oyo from a wiiito
ono. Tho progeny is a red potato with
wiiito oyes. Also tho progeny from a
dark red potato and tno oyo ot a llcsii
colored ono. Tho progeny is a dark po
tato with light oyos. Another union
mado by Mr. Howo was of the Snowllako,
which is early, with a light variety. Tho
result Is aluto potato exactly resembling
the Snowllako.
All tho new potatoes from tho grafted
tubers nro small, but not by any means
ns small as potatoes grown tho first year
from seed. Next year tho product from
tho grufted potatoes will grow full size.
It-takes four years to grow now potsv
toes from tho seed to their proper size,
and this is another advantage wiiicu is
claimed for grafting over hybridization
by seed. Perhaps tho publication of this

and Harvested Uio second eron of corn

seventy bushels of vorv good nnnlos,
Tlio following Spring I manured for
tho third time; planted It to potatoes,
which ctcw vcrv Inrco. but rottod very
badly. I mado up tho loss, howovcr, by
horvestilng 200 bushels of inrgo anil
natural fruit. I changed tho production
of n yellow bell-Howor trco from thrco
fourths of a bushel to seven bushels,
nnd sold them for 81.25 tier bushel.
which I think n very good return for
my labor, r rom my experience i am
of tho opinlnn that most trees liavo too
much (op for tho amount of roots, nnd
n deficiency of nourishment for pro
ducing a developed fruit. I llko Tall
or Winter pruning. Always cover tho
cut with grafting wax or a thick paint.
After removing tho limbs by thinning
out tho center of tho tree, it has a ten
dency to mako it grow broad. Too
many varieties are bad, nnd hardy stock
Is all that is needed.
DOMESTIC RECIPES.

oranges peeled, sliced nnd seeded.
Sprlnklo with sugar. Holl up closely,

and aro not nt all difileult to prepare.
Canned salmon may ho used when it is
Impossible to get tho fresh fish. Mix
tho salmon with lino broad or cracker
crumbs, roll In Hour nnd fry In butter,
or uso part butter and part lard. If
when using lobster for salad you have
somo left it may bo mixed with bread
crumbs and fried in butter. Tills Is nn
inviting breakfast dish.
Tea and Cokff.f.. Tea and coflle,
now our simple beverages, aro often but
badly prepared. Colleo should always
bo fresh ground, bo placed In a eliina
vessel of whatever kind, or ono of
granite ironware, anil very little boiling
water bo poured on it. It should then
bo ullowed to stand nnd the remainder
bo poured on, bo well covered and
plneed a few minutes on the stove, with
out allowing it to boll. Coll'eopots
should bo so arranged that when the
colleo is poured out it is strained. No
boiling up of old colleo will ever make
anything liko a good cup. Wo must
invo tno aroma, aim uiai. is ucsiroycu
iv nnv mixture whatsoever. It is be-
lieveif thnt boiled milk should be added
o eoll'ee, it should never lie boiled, but
lie jiiid warmed. Tea-making is a very
lelleato all'air, and should be well
watched. Teapots of pure sliver and
thoso very best plated mako good tea;
but tho plain chinuwaro or thu granite
ironware aro oven preferable. Tea
should bo placed lu a heated pot, some
warm water just sprinkled over it, and
nfter standing three or four minutes tho
boiling water bo poured on. Water
must bo adtled when required, always
before the last cup is exhausted, and
tho teapot must never stand on tiie
stove, but on whatever rcster is near it,
if tho tea lias to bo kept warm. Unless
the tea Is taken when made tho real
aroma Is lost.

From the Storm I.nko l'llot, of July Otli.
Tlio following named gentlemen met
with losses by tlio tornado of Junoi'Stli,
but fortunately they wero insured in tlio
old rclinblo Stnto Insurances Compnny
of Des Moines, Iown, nnd linvo hnd
their losses ndjusted satisfactorily In ev

Jesse Sypult, 1). U. llrown nnd Henry
rinke."
A letter from Cherokee, of tlio samo
dato says, "tho State Insurance Compa
ny have paid every ono of tho seven
tornado losses In this county promptly,
nnd in ensh, to the entire .satNfaetion of
every num. Up to this dato no other
company havo put In an appearance, al
though their losses wero more and heav
ier than the State."
Why do tho people havo to wait for
other Companies to settle, when tlio
'State" is always so prompt and hon
orable in Its settlements!"
