A Question Of Menorr.

Forget theei IF to dream by night,
And muse on thee by day
If all the worship deep and wild,
A poets heart can pay 80
If winged thoughts that fit to thee
A thousand in an hour
In busy fancy blending thee. f,sr
With all my busy lot
IF thou callest these forgetting thee,
Indeed shalt thou be forgot.
Forget theei Bid the forest birds
Forget their sweetest tune :; 90 2-Gt
Forget thee Bid the forest buds
TO swell beneath the moon; =. -.
Bid the fairy evening flower forget ~
To drink refreshing dew;
Thyself forget thy own dear land.
Its mountains white and blue;
Forget each old familiar face,
Each long remembered spot
When these things are forgot by thee.
Then thou shalt be forgot. yH

In July, 1910, tho largest elephant
over seen 10 England. was advertised
as "ust arrived" As soon as Henry

possible, to obtain IL for it struck
him that ii it we're to be introduced 10

The value Of u Newspaper.

Tho following is the experience of a
mechanic, concerning the benefits of u
newspaper:
Ten years ago l lived in town 10
Indiana. On returning homo one
night, for | am a carpenter by trade,
| saw little girl leave my door, aud
| asked my wifo who sho was. Sho
said Mrs. Harris had sent her after
their newspaper, which my wife had
borrowed. As wo sat down to tea,
my wifo said to me, by my given
name
81 wish you would subscribe for
the newspaper, it is so much comfort
to me when you arc away from home. -
III would like to do SO, said /, but
you know owe q payment on tho
house and lot. 1t will DO all | can do
to meet it,
She replied:
"lf you will take this paper, l will
sew for the tailor to pay for it,"
subscribed for the paper, it came
in duo timc to tho shop. While res
ting onc noon, and looking over it, l
saw an advertisement Of the county
commissioners to let bridge that was
to be built.
l put in q bid for tho bridge, aud
tho job was awarded to mo, on which
| cleared throo hundred dollars, which
enabled mo to pay for my house and
lot easily, and for tho newspaper.
If had not subscribed for the nows-
paper | would no. hovo known anything
about the contract, and could not ha W
mot my payment on my house and
lot. A mechanic never iooses any
thing by taking q newspa per.

A New Railroad Project.

Letters havo been received in this
place from New York within tho
past few days, from sources which
we consider reliable, containing intel
ligsnco that s5,5OO,000 have been
raised to build q road from Williams
port TO the Allegheny at tho mouth
of tho Tionesta. Two millions OF
this money is subscribed by the Penn,
sylvunia railroad company, sl,5oo,-
900 by tho Reading railroad eompa-
ny and 81, 200, 900 is raised in Lon
don. The line Of this contemplated
road is as follows: From Williamsport
it runs up Lycomins creek to tho
mouth Of Cogan crock, thence up tho
valley Of Cogan creek. to tho head va.
ters Of Marsh creek, in the southeast
corner Of Tioga county. The summit
between Cogan creek and Marsh
creek is easily made, and from that
summit tho contemplated road follows
the line Of the Wellsboro. From
Lawrencevills railroad down Marsh
creek 10 Wellsboro. from tho latter
place il follows Marsh creek to Pine
creek to where it laps the Allegheny
river, thence across to tho Allegheny
and down that river to tho mouth Of
Potato creek, thence up potato crock
10 the meuth Of marvin, up Marvin
to tho summit, which divides it from

A Lawsuit With A Moral.

A curious action is now pending 10
ono Of our New York Courts, in which
Anna Schoincrt, q young woman Of
about twenty years of sge, asks to
have her marriage with Ferdinand
Scheinert declared null aud void, on
the ground that it was perfor med
whilo the plaintiff was under fourteen
years Of age, and egainst her will.
The plaintiffs father is o wealthy
down town merchant. The defend /.
ant Is q Hungarian, aud was introdu-
eed to tho family asa needy music
teacher. Ho gained their confidence,
frequently took the girl out for . walk.
On tho Gath of April, 1865, schonert
took his pupil to the house Of a frioud
on Twenty-sixth street, and thore,
according to her story, forced her to
marry him. His friend ofiioiatod as
priest, and performed the services in
Latin. Acting upon her fears, he
prevented her from telling her parents
Three or four days afterwards no
took Anna out as usual, aad then
forced her to accompany him to Mon
treal, whore sho lived q miserable
life for eight months. Her where
sbouts was accidentally discovered BY
her father, and be took means to
bring her back. Tho referee has re-
ported in her favor. The whole sto'
ry shows the folly Of the unrestricted
intimacy which parents are too apt
to allow strangers to have With their
daughters.

MOrmOnisma and free LOyels m

In consequence Of the derermiua-
ton Of the Federal government to
uproot polygamy 10 Utah, no little
excitement is now felt in Oneida
county, New York, among the Free
Lovers, and to tho son.itivs mind it
would bo o difficult matter to de-
eide which OF the communities 10 tho
most abominable. Tho Mormons
claims tho right to have a. many
wives as ho sass it, whilo tLa FREQ
Lover scouts at marriage, and has
no respect whatever for the sauctity OF
tho marriage tic. In 0thoe words
they claim tho right to change their
wives and husbands every day, If
they choose. Those Free Lovers have
established themselves 10 q populous
community aud arc dovotiug all tho
power they possess to che work Of un.
dorminiDg the foundations Of Chris
tian society. Their pornicious pro-.
cepts aud examples orc beginning to
bs seriously felt. aud already some Of
the New York prcss are earnestly
invoking tho interpoSition Of the law
to arrest their further development.

" FRIENDSHIP. LOVE, AND TRUTH"

When grief and care oppress the suul,
And tears unbiddsn start,
Trus friendship dries the tcar away,
Aud cheers the dropping heart,
And hallowcd Love, difussing Joy:
Soon heals the wounds Of care
Dispolling grief, inspiring hope,
And conquering fell dospairj
While steadfast Truth, the triumph crswns
OF Love and friendships sway,
Uniting links in fellowship
That stronger grow each day,
Till universal sympathy
The hearts Of men shall move,
Aud man TO man, throughout the earth
A brother true shall prove.

NEW YEARS THOUGHTS.

Last years trials, where are theys
Have they wrought us good to-dayf
Are we better for that cross
Wasn't our gain, that heavy lossf
Why 10 life not one long Mayi
Why should trouble come each day.
Why not have complete success,
bringing hourly happiness,
What fruits brought you forth last year
Seeds thcn sown will soon appear.
Cast you In both bad and good
None can change them, II be would.
Let us SOW no tars again,
Only wheat Of purest grain.
Spring shall send her genial showers,
Pleasant harvests shall be ours.
Danish idle fears,
Providence the vessel steers,
Safely DER the sea He'll guide,
Landing safe on Canaan's side.
Chesrful may the voyage be,
Winds and waves are speeding thee.
Far away, our homes in view,
Resting place for good and true.
