THE REAPERS.
Se eeamenamnend
The long dayTs toil was over,
A bird sang ina tree ;
The sunshine kissed the clover
Goodby, and"she kissed me.
And sweeter sang the bird,
And if the clover listened
My throbbing heart it heard.
For all day long a-reaping
In fields of silver shine,
I felt her heart a-creeping
And cuddling clese to mine.
And lighter seemed the iabor,
And winsomer the wheat
That spread its golden tresses
For the failing of her feet.
And when the toil was over
A bird sang in a tree ;
The sunshine kissed the clover
Goodby, and"she kissed me !

The Miscrobe of Insanity.
The ~New Yerk Journal is authority
for the~almost incredible statement that
insanity has been found by Dr. Warren
L. Babcock, of the St. Lawrence State
Hospital, to be a contagious disease.
It even publishes a letter from Dr.
Babcock, in which he describes ,in the
most minute technical manner, how he
drained the watery fluid from a_ spinal
marrow of an acutely delirous maniac
and. succeeded in strainingand isolating
the germ of insanity. Furthermore, he
claims to have positively identified this
germ with that hitherto found in cases
of croupous pneumonia and certain
forms.of meningitis. By reinjection of
the germ-laden fiuid he is said to have
caused rabbits to become insane. All
of which, on the mere face of it, is a
sort of doubly tested demonstration of
the truth. of the contagiousness of in-
sanity.
Dr. Babcock is so far convinced of
the correctness of his theory that he in-
