In' the Nest.
Gather tham close to your loving heart
Cradle tlrem on your breast; .
They will soon enough leave your broomug
Soon enough mount youth's topmost stair
Utile ones in the nest.
Fret, not that the children'? hearts are gay.
That the restle-s feet will run:
Thrmariinea time. In the by and to,
wZylfrttlnyrh,nely room nd sigh
Per a sound ofeblldMi fun;
When you'll kmi for the repetition sweet
Tht sounded tTirough each room,

Awl wIJ to Ihdr stately gtooai.
There may come a time when you'll tone to
near
The eager, boyish tread, ,
Tlie tuneless whistle, the clear, Mirlll shout,
The busy bustling in and out,
And paltering overhead.
When the boys and girls are all grown up.
And Mattered fur and wide.
Or cone to the undiscovered shore
Where youth and age come never more,
You will miss them from your side.
Then tasther them close to your loving heart
Cradle them on your breas t ;
They will soon enough leave your brooding
Soon eHoush mount youth's topmost stair
Ullle ones in the nest.
John Jones' Hew Lea
It was a dreary kitchen the walls
were dirty and smoking, the breakfast
dishes stood on the table in the middle
of the floor, the cookins stove was open
with kettles and nans on it. and cold
ashes on its henrth, its tooty plates
awry, a iot of UisU-water standing on
top of the stove, and the broom and
pokerand tongs lay justwherc tho little
riders had left them when they were
called to prepare for school. Johnny
had gone oll'crying, and his whine could
even then be heard coming up the hol
low, in thedirection of the bchool-house.
The milk had not been strained, and the
Hies were buzzing about it as they sat
on the edges of two brimming pails, sip
pingaud rubbing their hands together in
a satisfied way. The baby was teeth
ing, and cross, and the one pair of hands
that could have brought order out of
this disorder, were busy trying tosoothe
it.
Is it any wonder that tears were in the
mother's eyes, as she cuddled her baby
to her bosom, and walked across the
floor trying to still its cries?
"Oh, dear, what a life! what a life!"
said she. "I try to be patient and make'
the best of it, but it does seem so hard."
Just as the babe was growing quiet, and
its little blue hands had fallen listlessly
upon its bo-wii, a shadow fell across the
doorway, and the hubaud entered, say
ing, "Jane, cm 1 1 you tell me what the
children did with the hatchet yester
dny?" "It was out at the rock, behind
Johnny's wagon, last night," said she,
speaking low, and gently laying the
Imby down in a bed that had not been
made up yet.
".eems to me you're a good while
guttiu' your chores done; you haven't
the knack of gifting along like Mrs.
Luavondyke her work is done up long
ago, anil she's busy in the garden. Tell
yon, hhf's a nice garden; don't look
much like our'n; you don't put the
time on 011111 that she does on her'n."
"Oh, John," said the little woman.
slipping baek hcrslcevcs am! tying on a
big apron, and trying to keep her face
ttinuil away to hide the gathering tears,
"with four little children, and the baby
sick- and the three cows to milk and
calves to feed, and hands to cook for,
and all the other work to do, I oiilv
wonder that I get half my chores done
in a wnoie tiny."
"Well, I'm sure I don't see how it is."
said he; "myvmothcr had ten living
children and she managed to gel along
first rule, and do all our own weaving,
besides taking in weaving for the neigh
bors. You have more room than she
had, and you don't have to carry water
forty rod, like she did here it is, right
at the foot of tho hill; and you never
. have to cut your own firewood, unless it
is m tne inuist, 01 Harvest, and J tliink
you shouldn't complain. If there is
anything I hate to hear, it is a trrowl
ing, whining wife. Xow, I have to be
out of uoors all tne time, no matter now
the sun shines, or how cold the wind
blows, while you arc in the shade and
comfortable if you only knew it. Ah!
you nave an easy time or it, you women,
11 you only knew it; so, cheer up. I
married you for a helpmate, don't you
know? The girls will be big enough in
three years to help you, and then vou
can take times easier, and maybe
by mat time llic bottom (arm will lie
paid for, and we'll be able to ride in a
carriage, like the Lcavondvkcs do.
"How long since you brought in this
water?" said lie, as he look a drink
ironi tne tin dipper, and liuding it not
iresii, ne squirted it out coolly right on
the floor among some pans that hail
slipped down oil a shelf.
As he took the hatchet, and started
out to the wagon to fix the hay rigging
on it, lie said, "Jane, if you can as well
as not, s'posin' you have some of them
new beans that grow in that fur lot for
dinner."
"Well, I'll try," said she, hopolessly,
as she slipped her shoes oil' so she might
step softly and with more comfort. All
we working women know what a task it
is to put a disordered kitchen into neat
nes, e)H!cially when littlechlldreu have
been about, l'irat she strained the
milk, saving out a quart, with which to
mix bread, for the yeast was set the
night before, and hud been bubbling two
hours; she mixed it and set it in the
warm sutfellinc, then started a lire ami

hung up their coats and aprons, and set
their old shoes away, and moved their
sleds and wagons and hoops from about
the doors.
While the dish-water was heating she
hurried up stairs and made the beds,
then washed the dishes, and went down
cellar and skimmed the milk. There
was cream enough for a churning, and
the churn was scalded, and then left
with a pail of cold water standing m it,
so as to be fresh and ready. Jy this
time the baby woke and cried, and the
tired little mother was compelled to sit
down and take him iu her sheltering
arms.

It was no trilling job to l&i those
pigs; the pen had been madeoutof some
old house logs, and the opening through
whieh the pails -hud to be lifted before
they could be emptied was so high up
that it just came even with her neck
and was only wide enough to admit the

Withal the little mother was quite
liaticnt, and almost every day could
her untrained voice be heard, even
down to the lower field and the school
house, singing: "A charge to keep I
have," or, "God moves in a mysterious
way."
Uut before another year a change
came. The 6trong, hard man, her hus
band, was stricken down with typhoid
fever, and for long, weary weeks ho lay
balancing between life and death. His
recovery was very slow, and his con
finement irksome; no prison walls could
have been gloomier than were the home
walls that held his prisoner. Day after
day the ceaseless patter of Ids wife's
patient little, feet fell upon his car; he
could hear them up stairs and down,
now iiere, now there, iter voice always
kind and tender, her hand ever ready to
minister to her dear ones, her words
full of consolation, and love, and cheer.
John Jones waa not wholly unim
prcssible; slowly the scales fell from his
eyes, the light came, and he was as one
born into a higher and a better life. He
drew liis bony hand across his eyes,
often the sobs mado him catch his
breath suspiciously, and he marvelled
much that he had walked beside this
little woman for years and not known
that he was mated with an "angel una
ware." His voice grew softer, tenderer,
his great talony hands touched her fore
head and her hair lovingly, as would a
woman's touched her as though he was
afraid she would fade away into a white
mist.
"Weeks afterwards, when he was able
to ride out, the old whimsical buggy
that had done good service in the days
of his church-going turcuts, was made
comfortable by a solt woolen blanket
and an armful of sweet-smelling oat
straw. John didn't tell where he was
going, but ho looked wise, and his
mouth had a perky look about the cor
ners that seemed tosav: "Just let mo
alone; 1 know what I'm about!"
It was evening when became home,
lie was still wise as when ho went
away. J lis cup of hot tea was waiting,
and his toast, and the tender little pullet
fried nice and brown. Ho seemed
really hapny toll v. He trotted the
baby on Ins foot that night, and he
called his wife "Jenny," as in the days
when he won her, and he let Johnny
play horse with his boots, and there
was such a contented, ricli man exnres-
siou on his face, that his wife couldn't
help wondering what had made such a
change in him.
The next mornimr the crazvold ri?
was called out again, and the soft
blanket spread in Hand John Jones took
the lines in his emaciated hands and
drove ofl in the same direction that he
did the day before.
"When he returned, he was accom
panied by a broad-shouldered, good
looking German cirl. whom ho intro
duced to his wife as "our girl."
She looked with amazement ujkiii
"our girl," and then stared at John.
He soon explained thimrs to her satis
faction. "The upshot of the matter is,
Jane, that I've abused you long enough;
me ixmi iieipmg me, I'll never see you
make a drudge of yourself again. It's a
shame for any great lout like rne to ex
pect a trail little body like you to be
man, anu ooy, and uog, and wire, and
mother, and nitrsrer. and mo a snvinrr
and a hoarding up money and means to
leave to tne ixmi only knows who. I
beg your pardon, Jane; and now you'll
tell this girl, Uarbara Groetz, how you
want things done, and let her take your
still, and you'll live hereafter like a
human man's wifr ought to."
lly the time his speech was made, the
Kor weak fellow was blubbering like a
whale.
Poor little surprised wife! She Hew
to his neck and laid her head on his
bosom and cried like a baby, as she
said: "John Jones! you old darling!"
"Xo, not a bit of a darling; just an old
bear, a regular old heathen, to sacrifice
the best little woman under the sun,
inch by inch, tliiswav that's 1mpii
on for years and years," snullleil he, as
lie imiiiiieii over tier lace in an aimless,
loving way.
Then "our girl," Ikirbara, went Into
Jane Jones' harness, and it fitted her to
.1 iiauuuu.
"Now we've turned over a new leaf.
go and dress up, Jenny, bless you!"
said the new convert.
So, with the memory of lanir svne
warming her heart, Jane unearthed her
wedding dress in the afternoon, and put
it on witlt a pretty old-fashioned collar.
and brushed out her nut brown hair
that once upon a time curled beautifull v.
Perhaps she felt foolish and girlish and
out of her sphere, but she looked sweet
enough to make upforall discrepancies.
.she sat sewing, putting a new band
on IJuby's white skirt, when the chil
dren came home from school. Her back
was toward the door. Tom came to a
dead halt as he stepped on the sill, and
then ntn round to the lean to to find his
mother. Xo mother there, but the
sinning, pniky-iaced Ucrmatt girl, who
was paring iMitaloes to bake for supper.
Tom bawled out: "Is mother tlcad?
Oh, I want my mother!" and cireled
round the house and peeped in shyly
with wet eyes.
Was that ladvinasoft crav merino
dress, wearing an embroidered collar
and gold ear-drops, his mother? That
pretty woman: Surely it was, lor Xet
tie was feeling of her face, and was
sparkling all over and saying: "Is this
you, mother? Why, where have you
been ?"
"Oh, ma!" said Tom, holding her
round the neck as though he thought
sue might Hit away the next minute;
"why where did you ko. and when did
you come baek?"

taken to save and lighten the labors of
ine lemtuiua portion or the farmr's
household. An addition wtis built to
the house, new siding was put on and
painted white. Xew windows were
added, and green blinds, and spouting,
and a big -cistern closo to the kitchen
door, and a wide, long, roomy porch.
Closets were put in all the rooms, the
old vertniuy bedsteads split up and used
for kindling; new chairs were bought,
including a new rocking and a sewing
cliair for mother; a new sewing ma
chine, that was a love of a friend; the
dooryard was paled in, and Hie calves
aud colts kept where thev belonged:
and evergreen trees, and flowering sliub-
bcry anil rose bushes, made beautiful
the new yard. An easy chain nutun
took the place of the old moss covered
bucket that held as much as a churn.
It was packed ofl' to the barn to put
clover seed in, and the heavy windlass
was borne away forever from the little
arms that had tuggul at its ponderous
weight with a sick weariness many and
many a year. Tho big well ropo made a
nice swing out under the oaks for Tom
