fg'A neighbor of Col Baker, the warrior states man of Windham, tells the following story
 Ths Colonels old grindstone which had long done good service the farm having become pretty well worn down, he bought and brought home nice new one A poor neighbor- conceiving that the venerable Colonel could have no for them both but could get along very we'll with one--asked him to give him the old one. The proposal however, was not eagerly embraced, but was on the contrary positively negatived. An effort to buy the stone also failed, owing to disagreement between them regarding price and the man having asked for q stone and been given a decidedly cold shoulder, went away exceeding sorrowful.
 A day or two after the Colonel's nomination for Congress, he fell in with his neighbor, and after shaking hands and politely enquiring after each member of the independent electors family, he took occasion to say in the most friendly manner:
 .'By-the by, you was speaking to me the other day about all old grindstone of mine. don't know shall want it for anything, and if it will do you any good you can take it along with you any time when you are going by- It lies out there by the woodpile''
 The Col paused to receive the warm thanks which he felt his noble conduct deserved, but triie set back by the following blunt response:
 Better Keep t yoursep, Colonel youue got mort aarss @ grind han Ihaue. s

The Diagonal Road and Farm

s confidently recommended as the very best i'm l U plement of the kind ever introduced for work ing roads, digging cellars, banking and grading around buildings covering underdrains scraping uI the loose manure in and around the barnyard spreading it very evenly the meadows where il has been dropped, scraping the snowdrfts from sheds, yards, &c also into out of the path lay ing up wet land into beds for the purpose of drain ing, and indeed for any and every kind of work where any scraper can be used
 It is light, simple in its construction very dura. bie easy to handle working faster and leaving its work n better shape than any other scraper known Let those who have used it tell what they think of it:
 1 H. Tucker, of Rockville, Ct, says-I can put a piece of road in good shape without any hoe at all and about as fast again with common scraper- and yet it is worth more on farm than on a road in smoothing land for stocking. stocked or ' acres last fall After it was plowed, instead of har rowing usual, hitched to the scraper diagonal ly and went over it, the same way that plowed in half tbe time it would take to harrow it. and it filled up all the hollows scraped of all the hilocks and left it in the best shape for sowing that ever saw Any farmer would not be without one, if he should use one six months.
 A. D. Waters, of Hartford, says-With yoke of oxen and boy to drive, can make and finish t,cice as much road as with the common scraper, and do it l easier for myself and team.
 Wm. S. Pond, of Milford, says-It is worth all the old scrapers that can be made
 Similar opinions from those who have used them might be multiplied to almost any extent But all we ask, is to give them trial. - Manufactured and for sale by the patentee.

AMERICAN & FOREIGN PATENTS.

D H. EDDY, Solicitor of Patents. Hate Agent N 3s of the U. s. Patent Office, Washington, un. der the Act of 1887 -76 State St., opposite Kilby St., Boston.
 After an extensive practice of upwards of twenty years, continues to secure Patents in the United States also n Great Britain France, and other for. eign countries Caveats, Specifications, Assign. ments, and all Papers Drawings for Patents, exc cuted in liberal terms. and with despatch. Resear- ches made into American or Foreign works, to de- termine the validity utility of Patents or Iven- tions-and legal other advice rendered in all mat ters touching the Copies of the claims of any Patent furnished by remitting One Dollar. Assign ments recorded at Washington.
 | This Agency is not only the largest in New Eng. land, but through it inventors have advantages for securing patents, ascertaining the patentabity of inventions unsurpassed by. if not immeasurably superior to, any that be offered them elsewhere The testimonials below given, prove that none is MORE SUCCESSFUL AT THE PATENT OFFICE than the sub scrber; and as SUCCESS IS THE BEST PROOF OF ADvAN FACES ABILITY, he would add that he has abun dant reason to believe, and can prove, that at no other office of the kind the charges for profess siona1 services so moderate. The immense practice of the subscriber during twenty years past has bled him to accumulate vast collection of specif- cations and official decisions relative to patents- These besides hse1tensive library of legal and chanca works and full accounts of patents granted in the United States and Europe render him able, beyond question: to offer superior facilities for ob taining patents.
 All necessity of journey to Washington, to pro- patent, and the usual great delay there, are here saved inventors.

Our Addie is dead Those tiny, half-worn shoes lay them aside; the little feet tread the golden streets. Gather his simple treasures away-thcre are nonc to prize them now, and they cannot tempt him from the angel harp. There be watchers witt, the dead, and mufled footballs, and whispers as if they might break that blessed rest The still night passeth, and the coud-veed stars fade in the gray 1eht che very sunlight is shrouded that it may not waken him. The great woril, with it's grief and gladuess rushes on there is the dull hum of voices and sunny, childish heads bending over the little coffin, and there words spoken of life and hope Toll, toll the solemn notes float out on the chilly air, as the mournful procession moves onward !!
