Just before five o'clock, the baskets in which the cats were brought
were placed on the tops of the cages. Some of the cats reached up and
tried to get hold of them. They all seemed to know that the show was
over, and that they would soon be able to run and jump about, with
plenty of air and space.

I must not forget to tell you how quiet all these cats were. Not one
"Me-ow" was to be heard. When, out of sight of the cages, one would
never have known there was a cat in the building.

SALLIE'S MAMMA.

GOING THROUGH THE CORN.

Music by T. Crampton.

1. Right and left upstanding,
See on either side,
Blooming corn expanding,
Rippling like the tide.
With breath of Eden scented,
On the breezes borne,...
All in love presented,
Going through the corn.

2. Bath'd in light etherial,
Ripening in the sun,
Royal corn imperial,
Bread for every one.
'Tis God's own gift descending,
For the poor and lorn,...
See the full ears bending,
Going through the corn.

3. Thrush and blackbird singing
In the coppice near,
All the blue sky ringing
With their notes so clear!
The twitt'ring swallows skimming,
Through the air of morn,...
Happy all, all hymning,
Going through the corn.
