BE CAREFUL OF YOUR MONEY.

Money is great talent To know how to us
!. IS very important One thing is certain. it j
wrong to waste it-and it is equally certain the
it IS wrong to hoard it. There is sound advice i
the following lines:
When life is full Of health ard glee,
Work, work, as busy as beei
And take this gentle hint from me
Be careful of vour money!
You'll find it true that friends are few
When you are short OF money!
The single grain cast in the mould
May spring and give a hundred fold:
More precious than its weight in goidI
Be careful, OF Your money!
The grain you sow TO stacks may grow:
BE careful of your money!
But do not shut sweet Mercy's doors
When sorrow pleads or want irnplores:
To help to heal Misfortune's sores.
Be careful of your money!
To help the poor who seek your door,
Be careful of your money!
Would you escape the beggars LOT.
The death-5ed OF the tipping sot.
And live in sweet conteHtmt nt's cots
be careful of your money!
And if You need friend indeed,
Be careful OF your money!

and ne Is justified in endeavoring 10 set himself
right with the world, the more particularly as
the executive at Washington does not seem over
anxious to aid him in the effort

ANTI-ScRATCHING MACHISE--The Yankee
who invented the Patent Hen Persuader' has
found his match in another who has brought out
an invention called the ''Patent Never Failing
Garden Preserver, or Hen Walker" 1t consists
OF a small instrument, something like spur. only
considerably longer, which is attached to the hind
part OF the hens leg, pointing at an angle of Is
degrees toward the ground. When the hen, with
this instrument on her legs, enters the garden in
the spring after seeds, and puts her foot forward
TO scratch, the walker catches in the ground
and forces her forward: and thus she is walked.
in her efforts 10 scratch entirely out of the gar
