His carol can chord

but the market has furnished them Without it, he
would never Lave dreamed of them. Without them,

Town and country, mark ct and farm-they are
sometimes jealous OF each other; PARTICULAR ly is the
country apt to be Jealous of the town. But, were
there no town, the county would simply be place
to exist in-as the grizzly lives in his cave, the
pher burrows In his hole. And, were there no coun-
try filed with industrious husbandnen, the hum OF
the city would cease-the wall of the owl and the
clyOte would be heard instead, within its topping
wals--and the bat and the tarantula would dwell
there.
