This is but one single instance in which
protected manufacturing has proved of
benefit to the agriculturist in cheaper
ing the price of home products. No one
benefits more through protection than
the farmer. He and his fellows have

1T is high time the legislators of Ohio
gave consideration to the impending
necessity that the farmers should dc
without fences-or at least without
boundary fencing.
The subject IS urgent. for the reason
that the extraordinary floods this winter
have swept away rails by the million
and turned out the best land in the State
naked to the spoilers. We mean by
spoilers the gaunt cattle and long-nosed
swine, that are expected to live through
piracy.
1t is shame to cut the few remaining
good trees in the State to rebuild fences
All domestic animals running at large
should be outlawed. If farmer pleases
to fence field for his own cattle-it is
well-but he should not be called upon
to protect himself by barriers against
outside tiocks and herds reduced by want
10 savagery.
Soon it will be impossible to find fenc.
ing material, and craftsmanship should
stand between the public and the addi
tional waste of labor and of timber in
doing vain thing.
In order to do without the enormous
ly expensive fences which dis6gure the
country and consume the substance of
the farmer. we need larger barns and
more commodious stables, and system
Of movable fencing made of wire or 10
Gust posts.
A farmer relieved Of the perpetual
state of siege maintained by his neigh
bors' cattle, horses, hogs, and sheep,
could have material stored that would
enable him to put substantial fence
around few acres in day; and the art
of doing this well would be one of the
fine points of farming Cincinnati

The Land Where Our Dreams Come
True.

Far over some mis-hidden river,
And under q wonderful sky,
Where the rain never blots out the sunshine,
And our loves never weary, or die
Where the flowers never fade-but in chang
ing
The magical sweetness renew,
Lies glorifed realm of enchantment,
The land where our dreams come true.
BY mystical symbols and tokens,
We know Of that beautiful land;
But alas! on the threshold of manhood,
The frail clue slipt out of our hsndl
And the wild river wsnders between US,
The white gates are hidden from view,
And only in sleep We remember
The land where our dreams come true!
We shall find the lost treasures We ask for
Revealed, in the wonderful sphere;
All the aims and the dreams Of the by-gone,
All the good that eluded US here;
The innocent faiths Of our childhood,
The one fiswless friendship we knew,
Arrayed in our vanished illusions,
In the land where our dreams come true!
We know, in divinest fulflment,
Our vain hopes are gathered at home;
AS ySWSAo VIC LuOuIu uCAO dtC
Where the moth and the rust cannot come,
And oft, when the sunset is fairest,
We catch, through rift in the blue,
A far away glimpse of the glories
OF the land where our dreams come true!
There are gathered the prayers of our mothers,
And the soft cradle>songs that they sung;
There they move in the midst with white gar
mentS
And faces Immortality young!
And out of the mists of that river
: Their sweet hands shall reach US the clue,
That leads through the Valley Of the Shadow
!, To the land where our dreams come true!
So, weeping, we lay down our idols,
And bury our loves out Of sight,
Though we know in our hearts we shall find
them,
By and by in the Mansions Of Light;
And the salt tears that fall on their ashes,
And blossom in psnsy and rue,
Over there shall be lilies immortal
In the land where our dreams come true!

Now that the great tanting season
approaches, farmers should remembsr
that great deal hangs on the kinds of
seeds they use. Not only is it import
ant to look after the variety and the
quality, but care should be taken that
the same seed, however excellent, is not
used too long on the same farm. Seeds
of all sorts lose vigor when continually
sown in the same sort of soil; and to
maintain the necessary strength of con.
stitution, weight and plumpness of grair,
the seed must be frequently changed

As the Golos well says, no war was ever

the Empress opposed the abolition of

ORIGIN OF POPULAR PHRASES.
some Useful DetlnitIons of Expressions I

Some Useful Definitions OF Expressions In
General Use.
st. Louis Globe Democrdi.
Cop.-A slang term by which policemen are
designated by thieves in large citios. IL
originated in Now York, and was first given
TO the police force under Mayor Fernando
Wood from tho copper badges which they
wore.
Now is tho Winter of Our Discomfort
lines,
Now is tho winter Of our discomfort
Made glorious summer by this son OF YORK,
commence tho play Of Shakcspoares erich
ard III, ," but in the acting version, according
to Cumberlands stage edition of tho tragedy,
they do not occur till the second scene of tho
first act whore we read "The son Of York"
He that complies against his will.--1n But
lers Hudibras," part iii, canto Iii, may be
found the familiar lines
He that complies against his will
Is OF his own opinion still.
Few quotations are more generally spoken
incorrectly than this. Almost invariably
it is misquoted thus: "A man convinced
against his will"
Neither fish nor flesh.-A proverbial eX-
preston in use before Drydcn's time. IL oc-
ours in the "Musarum Delicow of Sir John
Mennis and James Smith, and In other authors
of that period. Dryden, in his "Epilogue to
the Duke of Guiso," has
Damned neuters, in their middle way of steering,
| Are neither fish nor flesh nor good red herring;
| Not wings, nor tories they nor this, nor that;
| Nor birds, nor beasts; but Just kind of bat;
| A twilight animal, true to neither cause,
With tory wings, but whggish teeth and claws.
Needs must when the devil drivos-This
proverb is of considerable antiquity. In
"Johan tho Husbando, Tyb his Wyfe, and Sir
Jhan tho Priest" printed in 1888, it is mem
toned rs proverb then current in the fol-
lowing couplet:
| There is proverb which trewe now proyeth,
lie must nedes go that the dwell dryveth.
Shakespeare uses it in "All's Well that Ends
Well" act 1, scene 3, whore the clown says:
lie must needs go thatthe devil drives.
Spunk.-A colloquial expression, signfying
spirit, fire, courage, mettle, good humor. IL
is of Scotch origin, and is now much used in
some parts of that country. The following
couplet in which the word appears is from
| Peter Pindar:
| In that snug room, whore any man of spunk
| Would find II hard matter to get drunk.
On the square.-Honest, to reform, and get
ones living in an honest manner. Tho ex-
preston is in all probability, derived from
the we'll known masonic emblem the square,
the symbol of evenness and rccttude.
"You must keep within the compass and
act upon the square with all mankind, for
your masonry is but dead letter if you do
not habitually perform its reiterated injunc-
tions," OliUer's Lectures on Signs and Symbols

AYERS
Hair rVigOr

restores, with the gloss and freshness Of
youth, faded or gray hair to natural, rich
brown color, or deep black, as may be desired.
By its use light or red hair may be darkened,
thin hair thickened, and badness often,
though not always, cured.
1t checks falling of tho hair, and stimu-
lates weak and sickly growth TO vigor. 1t
prevents and cures scurf and dandruif, and
heals nearly every disease peculiar to the
scalp. As Ladies' Hair Dressing, the
VIGoR is unequalled 1t contains mother oil
nor dye, renders the hair soft, glosSy, and
silkcn in appearance, and impaits a delicate,
agreeable, and lasting perfume.
MR.. @. p. BRIcHRR writes from Rirby, o.,
July 8, 1882; "I.ast fall my hair commenced
falling out, and In short time i became
nearly bald. l used part of n bottle of
AyEH's HAIR VIooR, which stopped the fall

MIR. ANGUS FAiRDAiRN, leader of tho

1880: Ever since my hair began 70 give sil-~

MRS. o. A. PRESCOTT, writing from 1s Kim
81, Chdrieshoio,l, Mass, .Aprii II, 1882, says:
1.-Two years ago about two-thirds OF my hair
came off. H. thinuod very rapidly, and was
fast growing bald. On using AYERS HAIR
VIGOR the falling stopped and new growth
commenced, and in about . month my head
was completely covered with short hair. 1t
has continued to grow, and is now good as
before IL fell. j regularly used but one bottle
of the ViGoa, but now use IL occasionally as
a dressing"
We have hundreds of similar testimonials
to the efficacy Of AYERS HAIR yIGoR. 1t
needs but trial TO convince the most skepti.
cal Of its value.
