Plant a Tree.
He who plants a tree, Plants a hope,
Rootlets up through fibres blindly grope ; Leaves unfold into horizons free.
So man’s life must climb
From the clods of time
Into heavens sablime. Canst thou prophesy, thou little tree, What the giory of thy boughs shall be ?
He who plants a tree, Plants a joy ;
Plants a comfort that will never cloy ; Every day a fresh reality.
Beautiful and strong,
To whose shelter throng
Creatures blithe with song. If thou couldst but know, thou happy tree, Of the bliss that shall inhabit thee !
He who plants a tree, He plants peace. Under its green curtain jargons cease," Leaf and zephr marmur soothingly ; Shadows soft with sleep Down tired eyelids creep, Balm of slumber deep. Never hast thou dreamed; thou blessed tree, Of the benediction thou shalt be.
He who plants a tree, He plants youth ;
Vigor won for centuries in sooth ; Life of time, that hints eternity !
Boughs the strength uprear,
New shoots, every year
On old growths appear. Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy tree, Youth of soul immortality.
He who plants a tree, He plants love ;
Tents of coolness spreading out above Waytarers, he may not live to see.
Gifts that grow are best ;
Hands that bless are blest ;
Plant! Life does the rest! Heaven and carth help him who plantsa tree, And his work its own reward shall be. —Lvucy Larcom,
A Unique Confession. Lord Landowne’s peroration at the fare- well banquet in Ottawa was as follows :
‘‘Mr. Mayor, I will close what I have to say with a confession. I spent three-quarters of an hour last night in endeavoring to com- pose a ginbesibtion tos this speech, but I could not hit upon anything quite to my liking. I have often noticed that a speaker will make you a speech transparent in its sincerity and devoid of affection until he arrives at his con- cluding passage. I became convinced that to-night anything of a conventional character would jar with my own feelings to such an ex- tent that I consigned my peroration to the
| fireplace where it ended, as most perorations
do, in smoke. (Laughter and applause.) Under these distressing cireumstances I am going to ask your permission to read to you as a peroration one or two sentences trom a docu- ment recently discovered at Government house in an apartment which, I understand, will shortly be oecapied by Lord Stanley. It js evidently a fragment or a series of frag- ments of a diary, and you may be able to aid me with a conjecture as to its authorship. The first entry is dated towards the close of 1883. It runs as follows: ‘In for five years of expatriation. Almost wish I had stuck to North Wiltshire. Must make best of it.’ (Laughter.) The next entry is 1854: ‘ We are making the best of it, and find it very far from unpleasant. Fancy the five years will pass quickly.’ Then comes another in the following year : ‘Time passing very quickly and pleasantly. I take back what 1 wrote about expatriation,’ After this comes the fallowing im 1886: ‘Time positively flying. Ve are beginning to feel quite at horae here. Not quite sure we shall not have to make it six years instead of five.’ Then, sir, comes in 1888 an entry occasioned evidently by some event which exercised very great effect on the mind of the writer: ‘ These Canadians are splendid fellows, and have stood by us nobly. We have quite made up our minds to make it six years.’ (Great applause.) Last of all comes an entry written in rather shaky characters and runs thus: ‘Why could not D remain where he was. It goes to our heart to leave this country and kind hearted people. I trust they will remember us. We shall not forget them while we live.’ And, Mr. Mayor, take my work for it, we shall not.” (Tremend- ous cheers. a —<—: So The Fur Seal,
It is not improbable that the Behring’s Sea trouble may bring about an internation- al arrangement for the protection of the fur seal. The United States, in the first place, leased the Alaskan islands, and prac- tically the whole of Alaska, to the Alaska Fur Company with a view of preserving the fur seal of those waters@fand as the seals are more numerous now than they were in 1870 the monopoly has been a success from this point of view. In order to retain its monopoly the Alaska Company has found itself compelled to commit piracy. No one knows better than Mr. Bayard that such is the case, and that the ‘‘ close sea” conten- tion, which the American journals have been saying so much about, is untenable. Asthe Alaska Company has not confined its piratical acts to the ocean, but has at- tacked the authority of the United States in Alaska, and maltreated the natives to such an extent that in common humanity the American Government. will be com- pelled to interfere, Mr. Bayard has set about arranging for a new method for pre- serving the furseal. The British South Pacific Islands were at one time the most profitable of fur seal hunting grounds, and would still be if it were not for American seal hunters. What Mr. Bayard purposes is that Great Britain, the United States, Russia, France, Germany, and, in short, all the maritime nations, unite upon a fur seal protective law and enforce it. Of course, as the United States now own the only fur seal rookery worth anything, such a convention would be more beneficial to the Americans than to any other nation, but if the American fur hunters were kept under regulations in the South Pacific, the animals. might again multiply in those waters. °

| TEA A BLOW POISON TO NOT A FEW PEOPLE —RELIEF FOR ACUTE RHEUMATISM.
| The assertion that tea is a poison is re- ceived with incredulity by a majority of readers, and tea drinkers as a class express doubts as regards the correctness of alleged poisonous properties of tea. Popular Sci- ence News, in discussing the subject, cites numerous instances of individuals of this ‘class who were themselves suffering from tea poisoning. Their nerves were in a terribly abnormal condition, the heart and brain were functionally disturbed, and the sleep less in quantity and less refreshing |than it should be.
Tea contains much tannin and an alkaloid | principle remarkably akin to cocaine, says the authority quoted. Theine and cocaine both, when internally administered, pro- duce exaltation of the nervous system and increased powers of physical endurance. The brain is Jargely influenced in its fune-
ms, and long periods of wakefulness are induced. Continued use of strong infusions of either cocoa or tea results in great’ dis- turbance of nervous centers and functional offices, and either will produce fatal re- sults by persistent use of inordinate quanti- ties.
A cup of tea as served at tea tables con- tains usually but a trace of the alkaloidal principle, but infinitesimal quantities are capable of exerting baneful effects upon some tea drinkers. The tannin fourd in tea does not differ from the agent found in oak and other barks which the tanners use to convert the raw hides of animals into leather. It is a powerful astringent, and consequently, taken internally,is apt to pro- duce constipation and its attendant evils. Confirmed tea drinkers are usually troubled with constipated bowels, and hence with dyspepsia, the king of evils. Not all tea drinkers are thus afflicted, but the number is by no means smal),
Mild infusions of tea are undoubtedly serviceable to many, when not used to ex- cess; and it may be further stated thata cup or two of tea taken during the day, at meals, rarely influences unfavorably vital processes in any one, unless they are con- firmed invalids. It is rather the abuse of tea, than its use, that causes serious physi- cal evils. Four or six cups of tea taken during each twenty-four hours will in time produce tea poisoning and greater or less evil results.
An Alleged Murder Plot.
The London Central News announces that it is officially informed that the police have received news of Clan-na-Gael plot- ting which contemplates the commission of cries similar to the tragedy of the Phoenix Park, Dublin, in which Lord Frederick Cavendish and Under-Secretary Burke lost their lives. The police for some time have watched the movements of Thomas Bren- nan, and found him conferring with a man named Walsh, who afterwards made @ pre- tence of going to America, He ostenta- tiously announced his intention of going to Omaha, to see Brennan, and really did sail for Havre, ostensibly take the steamer to New York, but after reaching Havre he went on to Paris, where he has been living under an assumed name in an obscure hotel. . The police have advertised a de- scription of Walsh, and are closely watch- ing men supposed to be parties to the plot, Further details of the plot are promised.
~~. Founderivg Horses
Many farmers know the dangers of founder- ing horses by allowing them to drink unres- trainedly after being warmed by working or fast driving. The danger is greatest when the water is coldest. It is the sudden chill of cold water on a heated stomach that does the mischief. Water in spring is chilled from melting ice long after the air has been warm- ed up to the freezing point. All through the summer and until quite late in the fall, water is colder than the air. If the water be near the temperature of the animal it may be drunk without injury. Horses at work have little time at noon to cool off and will eat better after a drink of water warmed to take the chill off. This can be given without danger, of injury if made warm enough.--Courier Jour- nal,
—e- * Dilke on Defences.
The first number of a new periodical call- ed The Universal Review, has appeared. Sir Charles Dilke has an article in it which he expressed virtually the same opinions regarding the defences of Englano as were declared by Lord Wolsely, only the former is more emphatic and explicit in his state- ments. He maintains that although Eng- land might probably hold her own against Russia alone, she would undoubtedly suffer defeat in the event of Russia and France making a combined attack upon her. This latter even, he declares, is probable, if the power of General Boulanger is strongly supported, and continue to grow as it has ; Gone.
