The Deacon Discourses on the Woods
Somehow, I alias like the wood;
In Summer time they're beat.
All glitt'nn' green with coat of iheea,
Aa' log, and shade, for real!
There's alius eomethin' ia the trees
That itan' ao still an' erand.
That makes me feel to dog-gone small
Like to rjue inyttick lan'
Ad' then I feel so solemn like,
I eate in wander thro'
The leaves that shut uat all the sky
v-epi jw a glimpse 01 Diue.
Then from a limb np near the top
There comes the hooters call,
An' then I wish I'd bro't mj gun
To shoot and hear hint fall 1
Jus' then the dogwood kes my eye,
With rims sobie an' brietat.
Seems like ol' Nature lovea their blooms
An' makes them fer delight
An' then the squirrel's sassy cry
Comes to me on the breeze,
An' like a kid, I try once more,
To find him 'niong the tree!
So, after trampin' round fer hours,
I feel my eye grow tir:d;
An' lay down on some mossy bank
An' sleep as long's desired
Then in an hour or so I wake,
A-feelin' might; fine;
I seem to fill my ol' longs np
With smell of fir an' pine!
An' when the wind blows from the sea
An' scatters leaf an' bloom,
Sounds like an organ playin' deep
In some cay-thedral I'a gloom
So when I get my satisfy
I start fer home 'bout dusk,
A-whistlin' sof'ly some ol' tune
What sounds like Money-Musk.
An' when I climb the pastur" fence
I stop an linger there
I dred to think of Winter time,
When all the trees is bare!
I start an' hurry down the lane;
Sue meets me at the door
An' makes me promis' that I won't
Go to the woods no more
But Sue, she knows, an' so do I,
That when Spring comes again,
An' Summur's sun is sbinin' bright, .
We'll both go down the glen!

How is it with the young people of yonr household? Are
they saving money? Have they learned to appreciate the
value of the dollar? Are you endeavoring to instill into
their minds correct ideas concerning thrift and economy?
Are you seeking the opportunity to "bend the twig?"
Would you like to listen to a plain suggestion? If so, here
it is:
Send the young folks to our bank with the first spare
dollar that comes into their hands. The next dollar should
be treated in like manner, and the practice so continued
until a fixed habit of saving has been established. A good
ly bank account will soon result; the young folks will get
an inkling of the ways of business, and, being thus "in
