NEW YEARS DAY.
[original.l

[orginall
Do YOU see how the Old Year hides his eves
Hides his eyes as he steals away
Yet they shone, like stars, with glad sur
prise,
Only twelvemonth ago, to-day.
He had come to be king DER the world Of
men;
Gifts he had brought in his lavish hand,
And we, his subjects, trusted him then,
And shouted and laughed at the kings
command
The bells they rang, and the people cheered,
And the preachers praised him and well
coined him in
Never king more royal appeared,
Or ever was hailed with a lordlier din.
Then, sooth, he began his gifts to bestow,
As monarch might on a waiting band
OF his courtiers, smiling and bowling below,
Waiting his pleasure and kissing his hand.
He was giver impartial as Fate
Donor to one and donor to all
And the crowds that gathered his pleasures
to wait
Caught, each of them, something his hand
let fall
To these it was Love, that is strong as life,
To those it was Death, more tender than
love;
To some it was victory after strife,
To others defeat and the sorrow thereof
Till at last his courtiers grew i'll content,
And each man sighed for his neighbor's
dole.
And the Year was old, and his strength was
spent
Toll the bell for his parting soul
Toll but be glad, for the old should die,
Ard love and life belong to the new
Why over the Old Year should we sigha
He was but niggard to me-to you.
But this glad New Year, with smiles in his
eyes,
This new young king, who is good to see,
He will make us happy and wealthy and
wise,
And for him we will clamor joyously-
Shout, till our throats with shouting are
hoarse,
Ring the bells and kindIe the fires,
For he will bring to us joy, perforce--
Give to our hearts our hearts desires
Surely he cannot be stern or sad
He, with the light in his shining eyes
We, his subjects, shall all be glad,
lowered, at last, with his sweet surprise
What the hard Old Year to our prayers de-
MED
We shall win from the New Year. glad and
gay,
And live-with his bounty satisfied
Welcome him in! It is New Years Day.

by Constellation. dam Skip, the dam OF

stellation was sired by Almont. dam by
Blood Chief, he by Blood's Black Hawk.
Glenarm is beautifully coated horse,
standing Is hands, two and one -half
inches tall, and weighs / 900 pounds. He
was bred by Mr. Frank Taylor OF South
vassalboro, and sold to Gen w. S. Til.
ton. who subsequently sold him to his pres
ent owner. He was trotted in his two,
three and four year old forms, and for the
first two years was second to Gallant (also
by Constellation). which horse made a
three year old record of $50, which re-
NAMED the best Maine record tor that age
until 1884. AS a four year old Glenarm
appeared in great form, and turning the
tables on his old-time rival, Gallant, he
won the breeders stakes and a record of
1884 with great ease, and could have
trotted that fall in 235 handily. This
fall saw Glenarm's four year old record
beaten for the first time in Maine when
Black Amble made mile in 2.394 AS a
five year old Glenarm trotled a public ex-
hbition mile at the State Fair in 1924,
making the last quarter in 353 seconds.
As a six year old he trotted a mile in 294
Is days after leaving the stud, having
served GO mares. The past fall it was
the intention of his owner to have started
him in the 2.40 stallion classes at Bangor
and Lewiston (the New England and
State Fairs) but heavy stud service and
hurried preparation induced a severe at
tack of scratches, which necessitated
throwing him out of training As sire

An INAGIHAAY HELL.

Mr.. Frank Morley, Of Waterbury, c..
u the possessor Of breezy and pictur-
esque style Of writing, which shows that
he has missed his avocation if he is not an
ink-slinger on some Connecticut paper
that dares TO call a spade a spade. He
has lately been the victim of neuralgia at
his home, 80 Grand street, and describes
the disease and his cure in this lively
fashion:
"After suffering all the terrors of an
imaginary orthodox hell for two weeks
with inAammatory rheumatism and daily
growing worse, was induced to try Ath-
lophoros. The effect was like magic.
was relieved Immediately and would like
to say to all who are suffering with the
dread disease, Don't wait; try Athlo-
phoros."
Those who have suffered from innam-
matory rheumatism will appreciate the
force Of Mr.. Morley's remarks, and will
also agree with the estimate which Mr..
George L. Pease, another citizen of Water
bury, puts upon the value of Athlophoros:
II would have Athlophoros," he says,
"ifI had to pay ten dollars a dose for it.
After fourteen years of intense suffering
it has done for me what our best physi-
sicians could not do. During that time l
took every known medicine for neuralgia of
the stomach, but found no relief at all I'M
til took Athlophoros. The effect was
wonderful. All pain disappeared and my
general health was SO much improved as
to cause general comment. Icannot speak
too highly of the merits of Athlophoros,
and cheerfully recommend it to all who
may be troubled with rheumatism or neu-
ralgia."
From Pigeon Cove, Mass, Susannah
Brown sends these words of good cheer to
those afflicted with neuralgia:
81 had been troubled with neuralgia in
my head for four or five years, day and
night. Seeing an advertisement Of Ath-
lophoros in a Gloucester paper, l thought
would try it and so sent year ago for
some. have taken eight bottles and
since last March | have had no neuralgia
at all. My head, think, is entirely we'll.
l consider Athlophoros a great remedy
for neuralgia and shall recommend it to
any one troubled with it."
Mrs. Sarah j. Cross, of Monroe, NH,
says Of her experience:
"Athlophoros has done wonderful cures
for myself and all those who have used
any that l let them have. As for myself
the rheumatism is thing of the past to
Inc, and feel like new person."
