How We Have Grown!

A person would not think that
such change could be wrought in
this country as has been in the
fifty years gone by. Fifty years
ago this country, if it was not q
bowling wilderness, it had NO good
roads or schools, no elegant chur-
ches nor any improvements like
We have at the present day.
Now We have extensive fields
where once was nothing but i'm.
penetrable swamps, and schools,
colleges, &c, on every hand. Fifty
years ago, our fathers were young
like ourselves. but now they are
aged and gray. We always like
to see . couple of the old boys get
together snd recount the scenes of
their youthful days, the good old
times, as they call them, when 81
to Scots per day were large wages.
They did not work then on the ten
hour system and get from 2 to 5
dollars per day. But as an Offset
they had grand times at apple
parings. corn huskings.log rollings.
DC. How jolly they were in those
good old days when it Was fash
ionable to be natural and enjoy
ones self. But the young ladies
then, were not like they are at tho
present day they were not painted,
powdered, padded and squeezed
up in corsets, one would think the
least breeze would snap them in
two. like a pipe stem. Their
clothes were made for service.
durability and comfort, and they
found it agreeable to be useful.
And the young men wore hunting |
shirts, leggines, &c, and would
have been ashamed to have moth
ing to do. But the young "man OF
the period" sports tight pantaloons
tight boots, kid gloves, cane, a
cigar, plug hat and the latest
style of side whiskers, and lives off
his father. just imagine what a
contrast between fifty years ago
and to day! While in some things
We are better of, in Others we
have gone backward. We have
less timber now for fences and less
for sterling. irreproachable useful
ness.
