NOTHING but WATER TO
DRINK.

When the bright morning star, the new day
light is bringing,
And the orchards are and graves are with mel
ody ringing
Their way to and from ticm the early birds
winging,
And their anthems of gladness and thanksgiv-
ing singing
Why do they so twitter and sing, do you think
Because they have had nothing but water to
drink.
When shower on hot day in summer is over
And the fields are ali smelling of white and
red clover
And the honey bec,-busy and plundering ro..
l. fumhling the blossom leaves over and over,
Why so fresh, clean and sweet, arc the fields,
do you think
Because they've had nothing but water to
drink,
10 you see that stout oak on its windy hill
growing
Do you see what great hailstones that black
cloud is throwing
Do YOU see That steam war-ship, its ocean way
going
Against trade winds and head winds, like hur-
ricanes blowing
Why are oaks, clouds and war-ships so strong
do You think
Because they've had nothing but water to
drink.
Now if IRE have to work in the shop, field or
.tudy,
And would have strong hand, and check
that Is ruddy,
And would not have brain that is added and
muddy
With ourcSvs al hupgcd UP and our noses all

How shall re make and keep ourselves so, do
you think ;
Why goa must have nothng hut water to
drink

4 HORRIBLE DEEn-=-A most
shocking murder was committed in
Nicholas county, Kentucky, ON Sun
day last. The wife of a Young man
named Alex. T. Stewart, living
three miles from Blue Lick Springs,
had been in the habit Of visiting
the orchard OF a neighbor to get APP
Piles. She had the perm sion of
the owner OF the orchard. an old
gentleman whose name our inform
ant could not learn, to take the fruit ;
but on her last visit to his premises
she undertook TO carry of IN, e ,han
he was willing she should have.
Some hard words passed between
them. when she Went home and in
formed her husband that the old
man had insulted her. This great
ly enraged Stewart, and he armed
himself with IA butcher knife and
went in searcl, of the owner of the
orchard. Finding him leaning back
in chair Mt his home, Steward
caught him by the head and cut his
throat from ear to ear.
The murderer was arrested next
day and lodged in Jail at Carlisle.
The tragic affair created great cX-
citemeut throughout Nicholas coun-
ty, and there WAS strong talk among
the citizens of taking the prisoner
from the Jail and lynching him, but
on Wednesday he made his escape
Ivy knocking the .iailor down.
