Like liquid gold the wheat field lies, | . A marvel of yellow and russet and green, That ripples and runs, that floats and flies™
With the subtle shadows, the change, the
sheen, Such as play in the guiden hair of a girl, A ripple of amber, a flare Of light sweeping after, a cur! In the hollows like swirling feet Of fairy waltzer, the colors run
Through the deeps of the ripening wheat.
| To the western sun
| Broad as the fleckless, soaring sky, Mysterious, fair as the moon-led sea, ‘Lhe vast plain flames on the dazzled eye | Under the fierce sun’s alchemy. The slow hawk stoops To his prey in the deeps; The sunflower droops ‘To the lazy wave; the wind sleeps, Then all in dazzling links and loops, A tiot of shadow and shine,
wine, To the western sun the colors run Through the deeps of the ripening wheat.
O glorious land! My western land, | Qutspread beneath the setting sun! Oace more amid your swells 1 stand,
I hear the jocund calls of men W ho sweep amid the ripened grain With swift, stern reaper, once again.
The evening splendor floods the plain, The crickets’ chime Makes pauseless rhyme, And toward the sun The splendid colors romp and run Before the wind’s feet In the wheat ! — Hamlin Garland, Youth's Companion

Thoughts on Tex Drinking. Tea drinking may become as vicious, so far as the health of the individual is con- _cerned, as the drinking of alcoholic liquors. ‘There are temperaments that cannot en- dure safely the medicinal effect of tannin. The consumption of tea has become so en- ormous as to have suggested a study of its effects upon the health of the people. There are those who look upon it as. an evil only second to that connected with the excessive use of alcvhol. Tea is spoken of as an agreeable cerebral stimulant, quicken- ing intellectual operations, removing leic- ache and fatigue, and promoting cheerful- jee aud a sense of well-being. When it |
is used to excess, the digestiveand nervous systems are especially affected. There is no doubt that there are cases of dyspepsia caused by the jnardinate use of strong tea; it is algo a ygatter of common observation | that sleeplessness, palpitation of the heart, ,and nervous irritability often follow the Tea drinkers, by which we mean those who use tea to excess, are to be found in all classes of svciety. The fact should be impressed upon such persons that tea is not a food, and cannot, therefore, be substituted for artieles of diet which form both flesh and bone. The dependence of the habitual tea drinker on the beverage is one of the strong- est proofg of its evil effects, and should he &@ warning against its excessive use. A scientific journal says: ‘‘' Tea exercises a powerful inhibitory effect on salivary diges- tion, and this appears to be entirely due to the Jarge quantity of taunin it contains. It appears thar tannin exists In two conditions in the tea leaf. One, the larger portion, is in the free state, and is easily extracted by the hot water; but about one-fourth is fixed and remains undissolved in the fully ex- hausted tea leaves. Some persons have supposed that by infusing tea for a very short time—only two or three minutes— the passing of tannin into the infusion would be avoided. This is a delusion ; you can no more haye tea without tannin than you gan have wine without alcohol. Tannin in the free state, is one of the most soluble substances known. If you pour hot water on a little heap of tannin, it dissolves like so much pounded sugar. Tea infused for two minutes was not found sensibly in- pri in its retarding power on salivary
igestion to tea infused for thirty minutes, One gentleman of-my acquaintance, in his horror of tannin, was in the habit of pre- paring tea by placing the dry leaves on a paper filter and simply pouring on the boil- ing water. In this way he thought to evade the presence of tannin in his tea. But if you try the experiment, and allow the product as it runs through the filter te fall into a solution of prechloride of iron, you will tind that an intense, inky black coloration is produced, showing that taunin has come through in abundance. In order to diminish as far as possible the retarding influence of tea on salivary digestion, it should be made weak and used sparingly, and it should not be taken with, but after, the meal.”

King’s County Exhibition, 1889.
THe meeting of Commissioners for King’s County Exhibition, held in George- tewn on Saturday, 17th August inst., was attended by a large number of Commission- ers from different sections of the County. Hon. D. Gordon, Chairman of the Board, presided. He explained that the meeting had been called to appoint judges for King’s County Exhibition. He had also received a letter from the Secretary of the Provincial Exhibition asking the Com- missioners fi:vm King’s County to nominate one judge in eac’ class to attend the Pro- vincial Exhibition, Judges for the Pro- | vincial Exhibition were then nominated. | The following resvlution was proposed by |Cyrus Shaw, Esq., seconded by John | Larkins, Esy., St. Peter's Bay :— | esolved, That five judges be appointed ifrom King’s County, one from each electoral |district to award prizes to successful com- | petitors im the class of horses at the King’s County Exhibition, 1489.
[t was moved ia amendment by Wm. P.
| Lewis, Esq., seccnded by Robert Dewar, / Esq., New Perth, ** That ail after the word I ‘that’ be struck out and the followimg it- iserted. three judges be appointed, one from each county in the Island, to award prizes to successful competitors in the class of horses at the King’s County Exhibition, 1889.”
After a long and lively discussion the ‘amendment was put to the meeting and lost on a division of I3ayes and 16 nays. main motion was then agreed to.
The judges for the several classes were then appointed.
The matter of maintaining good order on exbibition day being brought up, Messrs. Cyrus Shaw and F. G. Bovyer were ap- pointed a committee to confer with the Georgetown assessors in making arrange- menis to prescrve the peace and prevent all disorderly conduct either in the town or on the exhibition grounds.
The meeting then adjourned. Geo. F. Owen, Secy. King’s Co. Exhibitivn. Geo’'town, Aug. 20th, 1889.
Regularity of Habit.
One of the mort difficult of all minor habits to acquire, says an able writer, is that of regularity. It ranks with that of order. The natural inclination of most per- sons is to deter until the last possible mo- ment, orto put it off to another time, where this ean possibly be done. Yet habits of regularity contribute largely to
the ease and comfort of life. A person can multiply his efficiency by it. We know persons whe have a multitude of duties,
and who perform a vast deal of work daily, who set apart certain hours for given duties, and are there at the moment and attend rigidly to what is in hand. This done, and other engagements are met, each in order, and a vast deal accomplished, not by strained exertion, but by regularity. The mind can be so trained to this that at certain hours in the day it will turn toa particular line of duty, and at other hours to other and different labors. The very diversity is restful, when attended to in regular order. But let these run together, and the duties mixed, and what before was easy ig NOW annoying and oppressive, and the exact difference between many is at this point. There are those who confuse and rush, and attempt to do several things at once and accomplish little, while an- other will quietly proceed from one duty to another, and easily accomplish a vast amount of work. The difference is not in the capacity of the two, but in the regular methods of the one, compared with the ir- regular and confused habits ot the other. LL A + ATI News Notes.
