Took The Hint.

There was a man in our town
Who was not wcndrous wise:
For though he had fresh goods to sell
He would not advertise.
But when he saw his rival sell
More goods than e'er could he,
He storned about his grocery
As mad as mad could be.
He soon found out the other man
Had ads" in sheets, betimes;
He took the hint and did likewise,
And now piles in the dimes.

HOW LONG GOOD STOCK
WILL PAY.


Many people exercise themselves
a good deal over the discussion of
the question, how long will it be un-
til the introduction of good blood
among our cattle shall have been
overdone? Almost anything can be
carried to an extreme, and the Amer
lean people undoubtedly have weak
ness for OVERRIDING almost anything
that can be overdone. But in carry
ing the improvement of cattle too far
they have a task in hand by no way
easy of accomplishment. As long as
good stock can be handled to more
advantage than any other the people
will have every incentive to improve.
AS long as the bulk of the cattle of
the country are of an inferior quality,
they will have plenty of work in i'm
proving. And until the new cattle
regions of the west are we'll stocked
up with animals of high type, there
will be plenty of room for extending
the lines of improvement. When all
these points are taken into consider
alton, it does not look as though the
the period to which breeders can
profitably pursue their business is
drawing to an end. Has it, any
where in the world, ever drawn to an
end? England has been pursuing
for centuries the idea of breeding up,
and now has, without doubt, better
average of farm animals than any
other country in the world. But has
it been overdone ?-are breeders quit
ting because it does not pay? Be-
sides enjoying an excellent home
trade, England is driving lucrative
business with foreign countries.
American breeders have a trade at
home whose like is seen nowhere
else, and besides have every opportu-
nifty for creating foreign market;
and, withal, have as little cause for
apprehension or alarm as any other
class of American pToducers.-Nd-
tioaal Stockmds.

as he succeeded, MI. Blake and his
wife, entered the room, foundering
along in the dark, for Peggy had
deemed it best to extinguish the light.
Jake made for the fire which still
glowed red with Goals, stumbling over
the cricket, land fell head-long against
Peggy, who was standing bolt up
right, trying to collect her scattered
senses.
'sThe duce !" cried Jake. "Look
out there, old woman, or you'll be
down over me. It's dark as pocket
here, and I've fell over the rocking
cheer, or the churn, / can't tell
which. Hullo! what's that? reaching
ont his hand to feel his situation, and
coming in contact with the bearded
face of the Squire. By goll it's got
whiskers Peg Peg where are you?
and where's Kate ? and what is this ?''
The Squire did not relish the as
sauit made on his hisute appendages,
and by the way of retaliation, he
gave series of vigorous kicks which
hit Will Dartmouth in the region of
the stomach and stirred his bile.
''Look here, old chap! exclaimed
he, Pm perfectly willing to share my
quarters with you, seem as we're
both in for it; but you'd better not
undertake to do that again"
"Heavings !" calculated Peggy;
whose voice is that?'
"Who the duce is here? that's
what / want to know" cried Jake
struggling for an upright position.
s'HulIo! who's fell down over my
legs?'
''I'll let you know who's down and
who's up!' said the voice of Mrs.
Blake; and the old lady scrambled
up only to go instantly down again
over a chair. Jake where are you?
get light, or I'll shake your breath
out, when | get my feet again"
Jake started to obey, and just then
Tige the watch dog, who hearing the
uproar, had managed to break loose
from his lair, rushed upon the scene,
and set up his best pow-wow.
The Squire had a mortal horror of
dogs, and neither fear nor love was
strong enough to keep him quiescent
now. He sprang to his feet with
yell; Will followed. Katie full of
alarm for her lover. hoped out of
bed and appeared with flaming tall
low dip, Peggy flung her arms around
the Squire's neck with cry of ter
ror, and Jake was silent with amaze
ment. Mrs. Blake was the only one
who possessed her wits. She seized
the corn pepper, and laid about her
with vigor.
Her aim was not always correct
and in consequence, she smashed the
looking glass into thousand frag-
ments, and knocked down the clock
from its shelf and demolished two
bowls and pitcher that were quietly
reposing on the mantel.
The Squire broke from Peggy's
embrace and flashed out of the win
dow, Will followed him and Mrs.
Blake would have pursued by the
same outlet, but she was little too
large to get through with ease.
A dreaded counsel was holden !;
Jake stormed, Mrs. Blake threaten
ed; and at last Katie and Peggy
confessed. And Jake and his wife
were so rejoiced at the prospect of
getting rid of Peggy, that they for
gave their daughter and took Will
Dartmouth home at the end of the
year.
And in due time, Peggy and the
Squire were made one flesh.

Peace And Good Will.

On far Judea's distant plains
OF old a solemn strain arose,
Which, swelling with the rolling years,
Will echo still till time shall close.
Peace on the earth, good will to men,
How eager nations heard the sound,
AS hilltop unto hilltop sent
The tidings glad the world around.
And mountain unto mountain leaned,
And sea made answer unto sea,
With one accord the listening world
Caught up the exultant melody.
But slowly comes the promised peace;
And strife and discord, now as then,.
Jar on the ears of God,- and slow
The coming of good will to men.
Yet are the signs ofpromise near,
The poor are lifted, men are raised,
Old wrongs are righted, light ditfused,
Through deeds of mercy God is praised.
The nations hear, the kingdoms heed,
Oppression totters to its fall
Unto all peoples, is the cry,
Extend the promised good to all.
o Christ, thy sweet, benignant eyes
Cast on us, helping us to aid
In making good the promise glad,
Which at thy humble birth was made.

AYERS
Cherry Pectoral.

No other complaints are'so nsidious In their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trifed with by the majority of suffer-
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from triting or unconscious ex-
posure, is often but the beginning of fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PECToRAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
"In 1857 took severe cold, which affected
my lungs. l had a terrible cough, and passed
night after night without sleep. The doctors
gave me up. L tried AYERS CHERRY Pee

nent cure was effected. / am now 62 years

We have lived and toiled together,


John and L;
We have mourned and wept together,
John and /;
We have clasped in tender arms,
Babyhood's sweet, winsome charms;
And the churchyard holds a name,
Only John and can claim;
While from childhood homes we miss
A fathers smile, a mothers kiss,
Yet our clinging hearts still say
''We will walk life's chosen way
Just the way we learned to know,
"Five-and-twenty years ago"
We must walk life's shadowy valley,
John and l.;
Locks of brown will turn to silver,
By-and-bye;
Lines will mark the once smooth face:
Care and grief will leave their trace;
Hands will not so lightly move,
Love, by tender tasks, to prove;
Feet will slow and slower take
Countless steps for loves sweet sake;
But, dear heart, what can we ask
More than this, that age may bask
In loves rays that brighten so,
give and twenty years ago"
Deaths cold hand came in and parted,
John and l;
Left me lonely, weary y-hearted,
Here to sigh;
But 1 know, beyond the river,
In the beautiful forever,
Where no sin nor death can come,
In heavens bright, celestial home
John and / shall meet again;
Where no sorrow and no pain
VIII dim that joyous, happy meeting.
Or cast shadow DER our greeting,
In Johns embrace I'll rest, L know,
Happy and safe as years ago.

Growing Old.
BY REQUEST.

We are growing old together,
John and l.;
We have seen youths precious morning
Swiftly fly;
We have seen life's Summer bloom,
Quick, for Autumn shade, make room;
We have watched the rustling flight
OF life's song birds, out of sight;
We have known the hopes and fears
Crowding full life's busy years;
All the changes, who can tell,
Since love rang our wedding bell,
Lifes great joy, that came, we know,
.Five -and-twenty years ago?"
We have planned and hoped together,
John and I
We have sowed, to reap together,
By -and-bye;
Not the good for which we groped,
Not the harvest that we hoped,
Always waited; but no frost
O'er homes threshold ever crossed;
Come what might, of good or i'll,
Mutual love kept shining still,
And when life some joy denied;
Love still found us side by side,
With the trust we learned to know,
'sFive-and twenty years agon'
