SUGAR GROVE, Pa, March 5, '84.
Mr. j. S. Johnston:
DEAR SIR-Mr. Horn was here to-
day and he showed me one Of your
illustrated circulars of the patent
fence lock and 1 think they must be
a great help in the business. / en-
close you two dollars, for which
please send me as many of them as
you can and as soon as you can con-
veniently. 1 am now working up
Pennsylvania on the fence lock.
Have been here four weeks. Sold
twelve counties at from 5000 to s40O
per county. 1t is a mistake to sell
good counties at the price We have
been selling, viz, 500 to 5000, and
they should be sold for even more
money than / am getting. 1t is the
best selling invention that ! ever saw,
and good man need not be long
taking the price of county in farm
rights. I have not done much car
yassing for sale of farm rights but
what / have done has brought me
from SIS to $40 per day, and some Of
those that have purchased counties
are reporting 'good sales," and
wanting more territory" That
shows that there is big money in the
business. / am thinking of putting
the price for farm rights to ten cents
per acre and it will sell just as vel
and bring more money. | thought
I would just give you an idea Of how
the fence lock business was going In
this part Of the country. Pieass
write me what success your peopl.
are having selling farm rights. An

THERE IS BLACK IN THE Blue
OF THE SKY.

An artist one day at his easel stood,
And sketched with pencil free,
The gold OF the meadow, the green OF the
wood,
And the purple and gray of the sea.
"A child looked over, a little way back,
And questioned the artist: why
Do you mix with your colors touch of black,
When you paint the blue in the sky?'
SONY because see it, my child;
| am painting the sky as it isl
And he softly said to himself, and smiled
1T is one of earth mysteries:
Not the lily itself wears perfect white;
Nor the red rose an unmiXed dye;
There is a light in shadows, and shadow in
light,
And black in the blue of the sky"
There are films over nature everywhere,
To soothe and refresh our sight,
For mortal eyes were not made to bean
The dazzle of shadeless light.
Our consolation and our complaint
Awaking both smile and sigh:
There are human faults in the hottest saint,
There is black in the blue of the sky.
What then? Are the skies indeed not blue,
Lilies white, nor the roses red?
Shall we doubt whether ever the crystal dew
Drops pearls on the path we tread?
We may dwell where there is no blur in the
air,
No veil over earth, by and by,
But good is good always and everywhere,
Though black may steal into blue sky.
We have read from the leaves of an old
fashioned Book,
OF One in the glory unseen.
Whose gaze the poor seraphim dare not brook,
Before whom the heavens are unclean.
And the hope of immortals is in the thought
OF Truth and a love so high
That possible evil sullies them not:
No black in the blue of their sky.
