Something Missing 
A city youngster was paying his first 
visit to his uncle’s farm. Among the 
animals on the place was a rather small 
colt. As the boy stood gazing at the 
little creature his uncle said ; 
“Well, what do you think of him. 
Johnny,'’ 
“Why — why, he’s all right.” said 
Johnny, “but where’s his rockers?” — 
Cleveland News. 
Bird of Paradise Orchid. 
Lightly poised, as if ready for flight, 
All ; n orange and purple bedight, 
This blossom that by name of bird we 
call 
Among other forms equally strange, 
And with colors of infinite range. 
It yet is the stateliest orchid of them all. 
— Emma Peirce. 
February 4. Newspapers take up 
much time. — too much by a great deal; 
but one can hardly help it now when 
any moment may bring the greatest 
tidings. — Henry Wadsworth Longfel- 
low.
