THE Brooklyn bridge is to be made
free to foot passengers for a singular
reason. 1t has been found that the ex-
pense of collecting the toll from this
class of passengers Is nearly three
times rs much as the revenue amounts
to. Thus it will be nearly $50, 900 a
year clear money in the pockets of the
bridge-owners to let people walk
over the bridge without charge.

Death at Boston of the Distinguished
Massachusetts Statesman.

Boston, Nov 22-Charles Francis Ad-
ans, third son of President John Quincy
Adams, died at 80 yesterday morning at
his residence on Mount Vernon street. He
was born in Boston, August 10, 1907, and
graduated from Harvard in 1926. In
1913 he was a candidate for Vice-Pres-
ident on the Free Soil ticket, headed by
Martin Van Buren,. He served five terms

coin appointed him Minister to England,
being relieved in 1858. He was a member
of the Board of Arbitrator of the Alabama
claims and in 1876 the Democratic candi-
date for Governor of Massachusetts.

THE severe wind-storm which re-
Gently swept over the Northwest proved
tar more destructive on the water than
on the land. The reports indicate the
gale to have been general throughout
the lake region, and that its severity has
seldom been exceeded. The most
powerful steamers found themselves
incapable at times of making Roadway
against the terrific seas which beset
them, and rolled the high waves over
their decks. Several vessels were
wrecked in the gale, and at last ac-
counts thirty-scyen lives had been lost.

Nothing of the kind. The spider was

its web across his door and be free
from disturbance.

Playing Fool.

An industrious young shoemaker fell
into the habit of spending much time
at saloon near by. One by one his
customers began to desert him. When
his wife demonstrated with him for so
neglecting his work for the saloon, he
would carelessly reply: ooh, I've just
been down little while playing pool"
His little two-year old caught the re-
frain, and would often ask: us you
goin' down to play fool, papa?'' Smith
tried in vain to correct this word. Tho
child persisted in his own pronuncia-
ton, and day by day he accosted his
father with: HAS you been playin'
fool, papaP" This made deep im-
preston on the shoemaker, as he
realized that the question was being
answered in the falling off of his Gus.
toners and the growing wants of the
household. He resolved again and
again to quit the pool table, but
weakly allowed the passion of play to
hold him a long time. Finally he
found himself out of work, out of
money and out of flour. Sitting on his
bench one afternoon, idle and
respondent, he was heard to exclaim:
mo work again to-day; what I'm to
do / don't know why papa"
prattled the baby, "can't you run
down and play fool some more
''Oh, hush! you poor child" groaned
his father, shame-stricken. That's
just the trouble. Papa has played fool
too much already" But he never
played it again, and to-day his home is
comfortable and happy once more

Shelter from sudden storms in

be overestimated by the dairyman and

be erected in pastures devoid of trees,

should not be judged by the work he is

"A New Hampshire farmer has
marked success with blueberries by
transplanting them from their native
localities by cutting sods and setting
in sod ground. They do not succeed
in cultivated ground, but in an old
worn out pasture the transplanted sods
will spread, and when established give
twenty-five to fifty barrels of berries
per acre.

ly stir into the mixture one pint of
crude carbolic acid. He thinks the
best way to apply it is to rub it on
thoroughly with a heavy cloth, using
the hands also during the operation.
There is no secret about GROWING
ounces. With proper care they viii
thrive in almost any good soil, but a
strong, moist loan, naturally or artifi-
cially drained, is best. They should
have thorough culture at all times, but
especially when young. The roots of
ounce trees or bushes grow near the
surface; therefore cultivation should
not be very deep. Yard manure, wood
ashes and potash salts are the best fer
tilizers.-M E. Farmer.

TEMPERANCE READING.
JOHN BARLEYCoRN.

John Barleycora. my Joe, John,
When we were first acauaint
You were a little fiery, john.
And smelt of peppermint.
But began TO love you, John.
And soon loved you so
Id share my only cent with you,
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
But now the time has como, John.
For me that love to smother,
And you must take one road, John,
And win take the other.
For never more on earth, John,
We hand in hand will go,
i VIII be fair, and tell you why,
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
You have not used me well. John,
While journeying together;
You were to be my friend, John,
In fair or stormy weather.
But when the rain came down, John,
And fierce the wind did blow,
You lief. me in the roadside ditch,
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
Your sense of right is wrong, John,
You We even led in crime:
But when we broke the law, John,
paid fort every time.
All! many are the Scrapes, John,
You We got me in, you know,
o1b hSNCI OilNc nave 0cipeQ me OUT
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
Tho we cant admit, John
Of Jelly moments tell,
The reckoning at their close, John,
To my lot always fell.
And if we tumbled down, John,
Trudging DER hubs or snow,
The hurts or frost bites all were mine.
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
With sorrow you have caused, John,
My good, true wife to sigh.
NY children to wear rags, John,
With hunger made them cry;
And then, if / rebuked them, John,
Which added to their woe,
You always said served them right,
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
You've bleary made my eyes, John,
Put hlotches on my cheek,
And painted red my nose, John,
My once strong hands made weak,
think you must have aimed, John,
In death to lay me low,
And none too soon Eve found you out,
John Barleycorn, my Joe.
