AWAKE.

Calm as the modubeam on the wail, Sleep the broods on baby’s eyes ; Arms, hushed and still, pat pulsing quics,

Enfolds him as he hes ; My braia is full of thronging thoughts, Strange passions thrill my breast, My heart aches with a load of Jove

4

That will not let me rest.

nee

The lim years stand about my head, They neither smile nor weep ; Like softest kisses, on my face The little fingers creep, { hear slow footfalls, in the night, Of fates upon his track, — O love, I cannot let you go! T cannot keep you back !

Lord, let him shelter in my arms, Or take us both to Thine :

Or, if a troublous life must come, Make all the trouble mine.

Or let Thy sharp sword pierce my heart, To blunt them for the child—

What care I, Lord, for stain and shame So he keep undefiled !

Nay, Lord, I know not what I ask I know not how to pray ;

Hear Thou the crying mother-soul, And not the werds I say.

Do thou what seemeth good to Thee, So he be spared from sin ;

Ard oh! if love ean ought avail, Let mine be counted in,

A. Gentleman.

—

What isa gentleman. It is simply this—a man of perfect and unsullied honor. No man, however fine his clothes, or elegant his manners, can be a genileman unless his instinctive sense of honor is as fine as ‘the ear’ of a musical composer, who listens to mu- sicians who play his own works,so that he could not do adishonest, a mean, or a cruel thing for the whole world.

{fe will not be honorable only in those plainer paths over which the law keepsa strict watch. Of-conrse he will pay his debts, and forbear to lie or steal. or to bave more wives than one ; and his word is as good as oath or bond could be. Being decently honorable, he will keep his given promises to a man and his troth plighted to a girl, and will refrain from circulating scan- dal concerning a woman, or showing his love-letters; but there are also a thousand delicate points on which he has no doubt whatever. He knows when he may give or when he may take; when a thing may be forgiven and when to forgive or rather to for- get, would be an eternal stain upon his honor. For in this world to blot out some memories is to blot one’s own life. Not that a man need seek revenge, only he must remember that he may not give an honorable hand to be clasp- ed by one which is stained by dishonor.

He takes no favor thatit is not right to take; and so he ever takes one gen- erously, and returns it when he may. Those who trust in him trust well. They are never betrayed.

The man of honor is a man with a heart; therefore he is never a flirt. He leaves no woman in doubt as to whether he is her friend or her lover —no, not the silliest or vainest of her sex ; and when he marries he has no

secrets from his wife, nor does she |

have any from him.

He would lift a letter from the ground with the seal uppermost, as certainly if you were not present as if you were, tor he does none of these things because he desires you to to think him what he is; but because he is what he is by nature—a man of honor.

White Oak For Butter Tubs.

Prof. Arnold said at the last meeting of the American Dairyman’s associ- ation: “There is no timber like white oak for butter. It has very little sap, imparts no unpleasant flavor, and, in the third place, the grain is tighter than any other wood. These three reasons make it the least objectionable for packing purposes. If the tab is properly prepared you may use ash, or almost any timber. First soak them in cold brine, and then in boiling brine. You will thus soak out all the flavor of the wood. I have hested but- ter tubs with steam, inserting « rubber hose through a whole in one end of the firkin and connecting it with the boil- er. The hot steam being turned in, the wood will swell, and the steam wil! push its way through the joints and pores. By letting it stand fifteen
