malice. The judges of debate did de-
eide that Mr.. Smith, Of I~navale, pre-
scented the stronger arguments, but we
do not think that there were three
other persons in the room who would
have decided thus. In fact, we know
that the audience we're surprised and
indignant at so unjust a decision. MI.
Watkins speech was clear, concise,
logical and gentlemanly. Mr.. Smith
violated repeatedly. while talking, all
the rules of grammar and rhetoric.
His discourse was extremely discour-

the audience was "spell-bound" during
Mr.. Smiths lust speech, but it was his
effrontery in claiming a second speech,
not his eloquence that bound them.

chasing yellow covered books supposed

John Cilpin,s Ride.

s'John Gilpin's Ride" was composed
by Cowper somewhere about the year
1880 or 1859, under the following circum-
stances, as he told them himself: While
on visit to his friend and admirer, Lady
Austen, he was suffering one evening
from excessive melancholy, which her
ladyship thought to relieve by relating
to him funny story. It was story she
remembered from childhood and which
she had often related to the little ones
gathered at her house. 'sJohn Gilpin's
Ride, she denominated her tale, and she
went on and told it in bright, sparkling,
narrative style. It's effect on the fancy
of Cowper was enchanting. On the fol-
lowing morning he appeared at the
breakfast table with countenance all
smiles, and he told Lady Austen that he
had been kept awake half the night by
thoughts of her story and his involuntary
bursts of laughter as the comical scenes
flashed back upon him. And he further
more told her that he had resolved to
put it into ballad, the general construc-
ton of which he had already in mind.
The ballad was written and given to
Lady Austen, and she insisted upon Civ
ing it to the publisher of her favorite
newspaper. So it found its way to the
public, and afterward, Henderson, the
actor, recited 1t in his public reading.
There were various surmises as to where
Lady Austen obtained her hero. Some
have thought he was q real parsonage,
and have collected proof to sustain the
position, while others have believed him
to have been entirely fictitious crea-
ture of Lady Austen's BRAN, or perhaps
of the poets own fancy.

The range Of climate over which they are

Apples comes from so far up among the

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD



Pumpkins are exceedingly nutri 1ous,

more than that contained in sugar Isuets.
while the dry flesh Is very rich in sugar

prejudice against feeding the seeds. but
