A Little twittering announced the building of a nest under eaves of the old farm House. Of for something to love something to love me a sighed lonely Little Mary. Another week of glad Sunshine and thick Green foliage dotted the Trees and wild Flowers covered the hedgerows of the pleasant lanes. Shall you be lonesome Mary a asked aunt Martha one night a if unde Roger and i leave you fur a whole Day 7 we Are going to the town and it will be quite dark before we get Home but you re quite Safe for the men Grill be about the farm and the dogs always bark if a stranger comes Mary assured her aunt that she would not fed afraid and she fell asleep wondering if aunt Martha made her journeys to the town in that striped skirt and faded Sun Bonnell but no. Mrs. Lyndon though a score of years behind the Mode looked quite respectable the next morning. They started after an Early breakfast and May,.standing.on tip-toe them until they were out of right then her eyes Fdl upon the undulating line of Hill and Valley and she called mind a deep hollow at the foot of one of the Hills remembering her disappointment As unde Roger drove by instead of entering that Little Glen.

A a in la be May once More and go to the Gen and bring Home some of Ray own Sweet May put on her Sun Down packed her dinner into a Little Basket and away she Teiji Jird Over Llie lonely Moor. There was the very place they had upon that dreary ride. How Beautiful it looked in the deep shadows of the Leafy Trees and in that hushed stillness she heard a he droppings of a tiny Cascade and following the sounds descended lower and lower into the Glen. A Little Brook was flowing by its sparkling Waters Cool and pleasant to the Young wanderers eyes. Pro just too tired to eat my dinner a thought Aas kneeling Down she drank of the Sweet water then resting her head against a tree which dipped its Long branches into the Brook. May fell asleep and Dreamel of Home a that unforgotten Home and during those Happy dreams the hours past swiftly by. It was Long past noon when she awoke greatly refreshed but of so hungry May open her Little Basket. I wish i had brought More a said she i could have eaten twice As she started to find was not alone for near her a Little old Wear look ing woman was bending Over the Brook and trying to rip a few drops of water from the hollow of her withered hand.

Aunt Martha was Busy Over a great household Wash and unlucky in lifting a Large Kettle of boiling water it fell from her grasp and Kitred Over one of her feet then she found the value of her Little orphan Niece and As she sat in her rocking chair Day after Day lame and helpless watching the child working working with All her strength and Energy even the hard heart of aunt Martha was softened. A Roger Lyndon a said she to her husband a a in be been a cruel wicked woman and i grumbled when you brought Home Little Mary. But what should i have without her now a please god if 1 get better her Young life shall be a happier one in be thought of that too wife a he answered a the child is growing Pale and thin and slaving herself to death. She has a look in her face like my poor dead sister in Law when in her coffin so remorse or fear and perhaps one Little Stem of kindness softened his heart also.

Aunt Martha never quite recovered from her lameness the muses of her foot were contracted by that severe scald so she knits All the stockings now and exhibits to the admiring Uci Ghiors when they Call the tasteful Fourcy work of her Little Niece. But of done to think May wastes her time i for it is she who Mokes the pies and puddings and cakes and 1 would like to know who else looks after a the Young ducklings and chickens ? once More came round Day when Mary Lyndon had rambled so lonely and so sorrowing to the Glen Ami True to her Promise she set Forth though scarcely expecting to meet that old woman so did and feeble How had she lived through the cold cold Winter she was not there but on that very spot sat a lady so Young and few and Lovely and so rii a dressed that May believed Princess who had lost her Way.

Then a a undid Munei to tobacco and Segars and afterwards with oranges imitation Ivory baby whistles Fig paste and apples then he went away and was gone for some time and i was encouraged to Hope the train had run Over him. He was Only keeping his most malignant outrage to the last. He was getting he literature ready. And from that time Forward the degraded youth did nothing but March from one car to the other and afflict the passengers with specimen copies of the vilest blood and Thunder romances on Earth. A the perjured a a doom and a the desperadoes revenge were some of his Milder works and on their backs were pictures of stabbing affray and duels and people shoving other people Over precipices and wretched Wood cuts of women being rescued from terrible perils of All kinds and they Are always women who Are so criminally homely that any right minded Man would take a Placid satisfaction of seeing them suffer sudden and violent death.

A v a detail of a few exp ments Mir read a the inorganic matter in the soil Ori indeed on any matter it must be brought into a soluble state. Plants feed Only on liquids and gases they have no Power of assimilating solid food. The inorganic portions of plants Are built up chiefly of Potash soda Lime magnesia bomb in a with Siliec sulphuric phosphoric and hydrochloric adds As Wal As with Many organic acids. The carbonates so generally found in the ashes of plants rarely exist in the plants them saves be Uig mostly formed from salts of organic adds during the process of burning. A Small portion of the above mentioned bases already exist in the soil in a soluble state but Are much More abundant in the insoluble condition. If however we add caustic Lime to soil it tenders these insoluble sub. Stances soluble and prepares them for the use of the Plant. All soils formed from the decomposition of Granite contain an abundance of Potash and Silica the most important cements for the growth of the wheat plants. But these two cements Are combined with Eadi other and with Alumina in the form of cd spar which almost perfectly insoluble. Caustic Lime Brea up this combination and accordingly when the Farmer finds that his wheat Straw is getting too feeble to support its own weight he applies Lime to the soil with the immediate effect of stiffening up the Straw. Fifty or sixty years ago the forms in new York Pennsylvania and Virginia had almost Lun Down and were not co Saideie Ltd Worth fending. Quot the were called a a old adds a and such May still be found in abundance tii rough Hilary land and Virginia. They had been cropped through consecutive years with the lame plants until they would no longer Kidd enough to pay for the trouble. In some parts off Pennsylvania Lime is abundant and upon applying it to the worn out soils the effect was remarkable. Farms that thirty or forty years ago could almost have been Sid for the asking Are now known As bang among the Best in the state. But it is not on the inorganic portion of the Soo a Lone that Lime it bears perhaps an even More important ration to the organic portion of the sol in Norway and Sweden every firmer has to pay a portion of his tax to the government in Saltpetre. In order to prepare this to heaps together old mortar or Lime manure ashes and Earth and keeps the Heap moist. The Lime and the nitrogenous matter of the manure react on each other and form nitrate and Carbonate of Lime. Nitrate of Lime is decomposed by the Carbonate of Potakes from the Wood ashes and Saltpetre is thus formed.

To his astonishment a Spectator announced himself still an a a he then put a shovel in the stove and partially filled it with shot when the shot had got pretty hot he Rtuh red them with his naked fingers till the Lead had i melted. He then took the shovel in this. Rit hand and poured the hot Mel Lead in Bis left hand and then Peciu the burning solution into his month. Kept it Tom till it cooled and spit it out in a Lump.

Tion is going on continually in the soil when we apply it and thus the nitrogen of the decaying a table matter is brought into fit condition for the use of plants. For All these uses the More caustic the Lime is the better for the land. A leap of Lime that has been Long exposed to air and ride is Mudi less valuable than that which is freshly shadred As it has absorbed carbonic add from the or. Carbonate of Lime is of but Little value As a manure although when it is finely divided As when it is in the state of Chalk it May serve to neutralize the a Taue Odds that some wet lands. It is undoubtedly better to. Apply Lime i the soil than ito make a compost of it with peat or Sodi substances for we do not gain enough by the mixing to pay for the expense a the Manip Nln tio i we have been frequently asked How inn i Lime should be armied to the acre.
