When far from the dearest and truest
friends

When far from the dearest and truest
friends
We are doomed by fate to part
When we clasp the hand, with sad good
bye,
How throbs the aching heart.
We may stray among fair Eden bowers,
Or meath soft azure skies,
And seek to charm away the pain
That in the sad heart lies.
But memory-ever soothing pleasure
Allays the gloomy, throbbing pain;
The faces of our absent loved ones
In bright dreams we see again;
Their loving words still round Us hover,
We greet their gentle smiles once more; ;
We hear their silvery voices singing
Songs we've sung so oft before.
The ripping notes of warbling birds
May make the forest sweetly ring:
And flowers, bright with sparkling dews,
May to the winds their odor fling;
But to the vacant, mournful heart,
No charm the bright scene lends,
And all that's gay seems dull and dead,
When far from loving friends.
But meadows gay with sprins-t:me bloom,
And summer skies that bend above
All seem bright when we're surrounded
Bv the gentle ones we love:
And we sigh, while sadly thinking,
That we all soon must part;
But loves link will ne'er be broken
Till lifeless is the fervent heart.

THE Willoughby Drill has been greatly
L improved for this year. Farmels i'll
want of First-class Drill should see it be-
fore buying any of the other Drills offered
by Agents.
1t has two gum feeders, working in such
manner that it will not choke, break
the grains, nor feed in an irregular man
ner.
1t has gum springs that allow it to sow
over all distractions, without stoppaSe or
breaking, putting III the grains close up
to the obstruction.
1t sows readily, Wheat, Rye, Oats, Grass
Seed, and all kinds of Fertilizers.
1t can be thrown in and out OF gear
without stopping the team.
1t can be regulated in an instant to sow
greater or less quantity, even whilst the
Drill is in motion.
1t sows up hill, down hill, or side hill,
with the same regularity and precision.
1t has Il surveyor, which shows exactly
the amount sown. When the Drill has
the hose hoisted, the surveyor does not
turn.
The Drill has been greatly improved in
the past year, and the many hundred far
mers who have bought and used the Drill
say it is PERFECT.

The keepers We're in the act OF feeding
the animils, AMI the lion in his anxiety
to get at a large round OF fresh beet,
threw his weight against the si.ie of his
cage with Tremendous force, and a mo.

audience So 10 speak. lie did not

one fourth ct the au Hence at the after.
noon entertainment WAS in the tent at
the time, and the stampede that follow
cd was amazing. 1t Was general scam
per, pell NELL, and those who could not
reach the door went out under the sides
OF the tent, and scrambled up on the
cages of less ferocious beasts Women
and children screamed, and men showed
their "gallautry' by taking care ofthem-
selves.
The lion was for moment masterot
the situation. After witnessing the
hurried departure of his audience appar
emily ''more in sorrow than in anger,
he made dash for some camcls that
were quietly fighting the iies IN the op'
poSite side OF the tent but he was prompt

enclosure half dozen times, apparently
with the determination of dying in the

truck supporting the cage were taken on,
the cage lowered and the door opened,

The whole affair lasted only about
ten minutes, but those present prononn-
