NOW AND THEN.

He was a a queer old fogy man,
And loved old fogy ways;
A n ralied against the reckless speed
OF these fast modern days.
lie once could travel leisurCly,
And stop his friends to hail
but now they rushed him through by steam
And rode him on a rail.
The good old coach was fast enough
For prudent folks to go;
lmprudeut men now laugh at it,
And say twas rather slow;
And so they rush upon the train
And speed like thought away,
Until smash-up breaks their bones;
He thinks it doesn't pay.
He loved old housewives spinning wheels;
The music of their hum
Was far more dear to his old ear
Than grand piano thrum.
But, ah he signs, those wheels are gone
Since whitney made his gin;
No more we hear their thrifty hum
No more the sisters spin!
The rosy girls of olden time,
Sunburnt, were firmer made
Than these, the late and tender shoots,
That grow up in the shade;
They did their mothers heavy work,
And eased her weary hands;
And sometimes, too, if brothers failed,
Could help to do mans.
Their dresses made with easy fit,
Gave not q pain beneath;
Their hearts had ample room to beat
Their lungs had room to breathe
Unlike our present girls with waists
Too much compressed and slight,
Who, ii they did not dissipate,
Are very often tight.
They let no fashion dwarf their forms,
But grew to comedy size,
And health shone ever on their brows
And sparkled from their eyes;
They thanked kind Heaven for its gifts,
And thought with secret pride,
That they were beautiful enough,
And they were satisfied.
He wished, he said, for their sweet sakes,
That fashions torturing vice
Would ease them up a little, and
Less pinching would suffice;
That they might feel the bounding health,
Around the heart that plays,
When all unfettered as it was
In good old fogy days.

Money i'm Chickens.

A lady who. lives just on the edge of
the city has kept for the past year. from
fifty to seventy five hens. that have
proved very profitable. She has kept an
account of receipts and expenditures,
and for the twelve months ending on
March LIST, she had sold three hundred
and sixty-nine dozen eggs, from the sale
of which she realized S132, all of which
was net profit, as the fertilization the
chickens furnished the orange grove
more than compensated for the expense
of feeding. Besides the above the chick
ems supplied the family with eggs, and
chickens.
Mr.. S. Strange has seventy hens, and
since the first of last January he has
sold enough eggs to buy the food fol
his chickens, to feed and fatten five hogs
feed three dogs and to pay fully one-hali
his family expenses.
From the above it win be seen that il
pays handsomely to keep hens in thi:
section even on a small scale, and there
is no doubt in the world but that the
business would pay any one handsomely
who would go into it exclusively.

. Under the pilotage of Mr.. Peter Hun
ter, the superintendent of the brick work
on the Kennerly, Mann, Falk and ellis
buildings, reporter of THE NEWS made
a tour of these buildings yesterday after
noon, and was shown some of the best
brick work that can be seen in Florida.
Mr.. S. J. Kennerly's Phoenix Block is
fast nearing completion, and the store
rooms will be ready for tenants in a few
days. The building contains three very
large store rooms on the ground floor,
besides offices for the hotel, for which
the upper stories are being prepared.
The second and third floors contain sixty
rooms, all excellently lighted and venti-
lated, with flues in each room for stoves
when needed.
The Kennerly and Hickman buildings
contain one large double store 45x75 feet
in size and two single stores, while the
second floor will be divided into thirty
two sleeping rooms and offices, the bed
rooms not regularly occupied to be used
BY the hotel. This building is to be
handsomely finished off, the front being
built of pressed brick. In few days
the brick work on this building will be
completed
We next followed Mr.. Hunter across
the street and up the ladder to the top of
the Falk building. When completed,
this will be one of the handsomest dry
goods establishments in the State. Phil
adelphia pressed brick and ornamental
brick are being used for the front, and
the fancy work done on the walls show
good taste and proficient workmanship
