INSTRUMENTATION,


Eighty little urchins
Coming through the door,
Pushing, cr0wding, making
A tremendous rear
Why DON'T you keen quiet9
Can't you mind the rule?
Bless me, this Is pleasant
Teaching public school
Eighty little pilgrims
On the road to fame
II they fail to reach it,
Who win be 10 blame?
High and loyly stations
Birds OH every feather
On q common level,
Here are brought together.
Dirty little faces,
Loving little hearts,
Eyes bFiTnful Of mischief.
Skilled in all its arts.
That's a precious darling?
what are you about?"
"May pass the water2"
Please may go out3"
Boots and shoes are seufiing,
States and books are rafting,
And IN the corner yOnder
Two pugilists are battling,
Others cutting didOes-
"a What q b0theratiOnl
No wonder we grow crusty
From such association
Anxious parent drops In
Merely to inquire
.. Why his olive branches
Do not shoot up higher.
Says be wants his children
To mind their sp's" and "q's,"
And hopes their brilliant talents
VIII not be abused.
Spelling, reading, writing,
Putting up the young ones,
Fuming, scOlding, fighting,
Squirting on the dumb ones;
Gymnasts, vocal music!
How the heart rejoices
When the singer comes,
To cultivate their voices.

Some time since the Richmond Christidn
Union talked about Horace Greeley and
Mary's "Little Lamb" as follows:
Mary had little lamb,
1t drank cold water freely,
It looked so innocent and wise
She called il Horace Greeley.
A lady friend of ours offers the following
appropriate amendment:
Mary had a little lamb
She called IL Horace Greeley,
She fed it from the public crib,
From which it ate quite freely.

of diseased milk has been allowed to pass into
those cars. About seven weeks ago we were all
filled with alarm, for the disease had appeared
amongst us, because our cows, horses, hogs,
dogs, cats, and perhaps ourselves might fall vic
TINS to tLis dreadful plague. Well, it has come
and gone, and only three herds have been af-
tected with il, and they have all recovered, and
are as well to-day as any cattle in Westboro
The Selectmen toreSaw the evil that would re-
suit if other herds were allowed to come in con-
tact with those affected and they Immediately
Isolated the affected herds, and forbade milk
from being sold from them, and also forbade all
cattle from being exchanged or driven upon high
ways. Their orders have been strictly observed.
The disease was communicated TO the three
herds directly from Brighton, and all the cattle
in those three herds except two have had it,
and all came down with it few days after the
exposure, which is COOL evidence that it can be
communicated on the air. 1t was given TO one
herd by a bull bought at Brighton, while he was
tied in Il stable by himself, at one end of the
barn. He had it very light; there was very
slight irritation between the hoois, and he
'drooled' a little; yet there were as many as
twelve or fifteen cattle here few days after, in
nearly the same stage of the disease.
l believe an animal infected with it will com.
muncate it to herd in few hours, and never
stir out of his tracks very much doubt if
there is anything left in those barns where the
disease was that would communicate it to a
fresh animal.
The milk Of these herds has been used several
weeks by the families of the persons to whom
they belong without the least injury. Cows
while sick do not give milk enough to pay for
milking. One man told me that he had 4 COW
that gave twelve quarts per day, and the disease
reduced her to pint
This disease appeared in Westboro some
thirty five years ago, and l remember that my
fathers cattle had it, and that the skin realed
from their mouths and tongues, and they fro tn
ed as they do now. 1t lwas called the black
tongue He gave them soft laxative food; their
mouths were too sore to eat hard or rough food /;
and they all recovered"

the legislature, which required the commission

of the minority and majority parties.
