whose fathers parted from us century ago in
anger and bloodshed. May the natural affec-
ton never die. 1t is like the love which is
borne by younger brother to an elder, so
long as the big brother behaves handsomely
and kindly | may possibly know something
of the nature of such affection, for, as the cid
est of round dozen, have had experience OF
the fraternal relation as exhibited by an unus-
ual number of younger brothers. Never nave
/ known that fraternal tie to fail but even lis
strength has its natural limit, and SO Canada's
affection may be measured. None of my
younger brothers, however fond of me, would
voluntarily ask that his prosperity should be
altogether overshadowed and swallowed up by
mine: so Canada, in words which our neigh
bors may understand, wishes to be their friend,
but DOES not desire to become their foe. She
reioices in her big brothers strength and stat
ure, but is not anxious TO nourish it by offering
up her own body in order that it may afford
him when over-hungry that happy festival he
is in the habit of calling square meal.

A Vermont man recently went and paid for
IS watch he stole eighteen years ago. He
stated that he wanted to free his mind as he
had been in hell ever since he stole it. III it
takes eighteen years of hell to make Vermont
man give up IS, there appears to be basis for
the belief that some Vermonters are penurious.
