The Spice Of Life.

Some proverbial philosopher, antecedeut
{ the immortal Upper, has sententously
assured US that ''Variety is the spice of life"
Prefix to the sentence the word wholesome,
and we may, perhaps, agree with him5
hundreds OF slow gong individuals die be
fore their time OF the ennu5 engendered Ivy
monotony, and every now and then some
body takes a leap in the dark out of life in
order to escape its saneness. The fact is
that man is naturally an excitabe being
born to be excited. In the absence of ex
element his soul stagnates tie requires
TO he stirred up occasionally as much as a
custard or a sauce, and if he is not mentally
agitated IN some way or other he is sure to
be failure as an unstirred sauce or custard.
How can he be stirred up most beneficial y?
that is the question. Our proverbial friend
says by change-by variety. But there are
changes from good to bad and frnm bad to
worse-as If man should vary praying
with swearing or, after wearying himself
with swearing, should try his hand at muir
der. Change from one kind of labor to
another is refreshing; change from work to
play is pleasant and healthful; change from
action to perfect rest is agreeable and invig-
Grating. All these changes, made at prop
or times and seasons, are conducive to the
health of mind and body. But we must be
careful to vary the monotony of labor wise
ly. Frivolous pursuits enfeebe the mind
more than the hardest mental toll But
there is no harm in being. merry mot jot.
The same power that endowed us with pow.
erful biceps muscles to work with, also gave
us risable muscles to laugh with, and meant
| that we should shake our sides as well az
use our arms. ''To everything there is {
season, . says the shrewd and pious Solomon
"a time for every purpose under heaven
time to get, time to ose,a time to keep
and time to cast away "-Ledger.

The Mower Trial.

NeSsrs. Editors Kenosha Telegraph:
Dear Sirs;-In reading the notice of the trial
of machines published in your last issue, we
notice one part which we think needs some
explanation. The Secretary says: "The
Lavey machine runs easily, but is a combined
machine, and perhaps ought not to have com
peted with machines adapted for moving
only, yet it mows we'll"
Now did not enter our machine as a NOW
er but as a, combined machine, consequent
supposed we were competing (or would have
been had there been any there) with combined
machines. We notice in the premium list of
of the Society for 1861 premium for com
bined machines to be awarded by actual test
of those machines. Now, under those circum-
stances, understanding them as we do, we
think we are entitled to the premium offered
our combined machines. We do not ask for
that, but simply ask that the Society in try
ing to avoid it, do not misrepresent us, by
putting our combined machine in COMPETE
ton with movers, even fit does NOW we'll.
We will admit the last p-rt and feel thankful
that that isn't mixed
