WORD TO THE MIpDLE-AGED.
Another remark: it is very important that
people who have passed forty years of age do
not forget that once thoy were boys and girls.
That memory seems from multitude to have
been oblitsrated. Put yourself back twenty or
forty years ago, and see what you needed then
lsheumatism is incompetent to make laws for
sound ankles. Do not demand that people have
the tastes of old age before they get into the
thirties Don't expect golden rod and china

who start life aged in preference are the people
who after awhile bore the life out of prayer
meetings and make religion snuflng can't and

other conditions. They will come to the hard

the broad shoulders and the robust frames
which, after you are under the ground,
will be taxed to the utmost. Let the
skating rink directors and managers join with
parents in grand conspiracy TO overthrow the
feeble health and physical stagnation of our cit

amusement will be emptied, and the coming
generations will have vigor rebounding and

Last December, man giving his name as
Frank Plummer and processing to be a preach
er of the Second Advent doctrine, came to
Swans Island, says correspondent of the Els
worth American. He was cordially received by
citizens of that raith, and although his preach
ing consisted largely of ratings at Evangel-
ica Christianity, all went well with him until
he used such harsh and abusive language to an
old lady, a member of the Second Advent
church. that she tainted and afterwards called
on justice of the peace and the citizens for
protection. A committee chosen who wait
ed on Mr.. Plummer and told him he might have
one week to leave the Island. A few days af
ter that he either left the island secreted him

II guess these farmers who are groan-
ing about low prices and high taxes, and
who are longing for the good Old times,
don't remember much about the good old
times" said well known Orange county
farmer. II can remember when we used
to haul our grain butter, pork and eggs
all the way to NeWburgh, going one day
and coming back the next. We general
ly got Is cents bushtl for oats and 10
a pound for butter. Seventy cents
a bushel for wheat was a fancy price. If
we got six or eight cents a dozen for eggs
we thought we were doing we'll. Nice
cOrn-fed pork, dressed, we carted to mar
ket for 50 a hundred. The butter we
put on the market in those days was
the genuine Orange county article, yellow
as gold and as hard as walnut. | have
sold tubful after tubful of butter for 10
cents a pound that would net IS cents
easy if | had it, or any like it, to sell
now. That was before the Erie railway
came through here and put us up to sell
ing our milk instead of making it into
butter We didn't have any lime-kept
eggs to sell in those days either. AS for
taxes, | paid 500 for my farm OF 100
acres when | was getting 10 cents a pound
for butter. On the same farm now pay
$42.50, and | have sold my entire dairy
of milk for what is equal to more than
three times ten cents a pound for butter.
There is a good deal Of humbug in this
mourning after the good old days, and
know it." New York Sun.
