In some country houses there is little cup
board high up in the wall near the ceiling. In
that little cupboard the gentle farmer usually
keeps his razor, his shaving mug, his church GER
tif1eate, and a tin teapot which, somehow, always
contains cold tea. The farmer reaches up takes
the teapot blythe back of the neck, drinks out of
the spout, wipes the tea off of his lips, takes up
his candle for bed, and leaves delicious odor of
apple whiskey.

told horrible story of ship that once sailed
from Boston with three missionaries and $4,000

informed whether there was too much rum for
the missionaries, or too much missionaries for
the rum.

POETRY.
From the Rutland Herald
There's Work for All.
by A. p. WALKER

The world is wide and full of work.
With room for all who labor,
And no one need from duty shirk
For fear he'll crowd his neighbor.
There's work for me, there's work for YOU
There's work for all who're willing
None need the idlel 3 path pursue
Or sluggard's couch be filling.
The seasons come, the seasons so,
And time is flying ever,
If we would reap, we first must SOW,
: Sloth fills our gamers never.
Kind Natures works crown every land,
And Art employ is giving;
And he who brings willing hand
Will get an honest living.
We may not all on indians plains
Feed Jethros flock with Moses
But somewhere down life's sunny lanes
A flock for us reposes.
No neecful labor brings disgrace
Work elevates people;
H c buildeth well who lays the base.
As he who crowns the steeple.
They win the prize, the race who run,
The laggard only loses;
He hears the plaudit good, well done,
Who well his talent uses.
The harvest whitens as of yore
With reapers none too many,
And still tho vineyard yields its store,
Go in and earn your penny.

The Centaurs of old were repre-
scented as half horse and half man.
The God of medicine was Eaculapius,
a Centaur. The man who applied the
name of Centaur to a remedy which Is
applicable to both man and beast,
struck lucky thought. We under
stand that the remedy Is as good as the
name is felicitous. The cures said to
be performed by it are simply wonder
full. Admitting that only one-balf is
true which is of this Liniment, it Is of
great value, and should be in the pos
session of every housekeeper and of
every person who owns a horse.
