A man never surfeits of too much
honesty.

fore going to bed, will relieve your
cough and give you a good nights
rest.
Better be alone than in bad COM
pany.
Content is the true philosophers
stone.
Death is deaf and hears no denial.
Diseases are the interests paid for
pleasures.

Patience is plaster for all sores.
Provide for the worst, the best will
save itself.
Speech is the gift of all, but thought
of few.
The mob has many heads but no

ALPENA WEEKLY ARGUS.
MISCELLANEOUS.
SATURDAY NIGHT.

The week Ia DER, and all Its work Is done;
The weary tOiler seeks his rest
Nor Is he grIeved to see the faithful sun,
A fiery ball, sink In the west
Six DAYS of steady, unrcmitting beat
OF feeling heart and thinking brain,
OF busy hands and quick, obcdient feet;
OF every power constant strain.
How good to have the hended bow relaxed.
The heavy burden laid inside,
And all our bonded faculties untaxed,
And freedom come, Joyous tide!
To leave behind the counting room and
mart,
To think no more of unpaid bills,
To ind In walks from these dull things apart
That which our higher nature nils.
TO ouaff the fragrance OF the flowers again,
To open natures pictured book,
To listen to the robins vespcr strain
within some cool scquestcred nook.
To feel that God did not intend this life
To be a constant round OF care,
Nor that amid Its ceascless toll ana STRIFE
Man should n brow OF sorrow wear.
These resting spots, these happy breathing
spells,
When by the murmurlng streams we stray,
Or gaze on meadows starred with asphodels
Are Gods sweet whisperings by the way.
Gods whisperlngs arc these unto our souls,
Divinest Joys and prophecies
OF that which IL to come, where ever rolls
The peace OF God, beyond the skies.
Leave then thy toll and care, my brother
When thy six days OF labor end
Accept of Heavens benignant plan,
And walk with God as friend with friend.

4 LABOR OF LOVE.

''The Book of Berkshire" just publish ed by Clark ". Bryan & Go. Great Bar rington, Mass. is now ready for deliv- cry. It is volume of 300 pages de- scribing the hills and homes, the lakes and rivers, and the drives and walks in Berkshire county, and the northwestern part of Litchfeld county. It is abso- lutely complete in every respect, and is sold at the mere nominal price of 50 cents in paper covers or 75 cents in Catherette binding. The intrinsic merits of the book ought to insure sale of at least 1,O0O,O0O copies.
 Everyone desires to behold the grand eur and beauty of Berkshire county but comparatively few dwellers upon earth can spare the time for such a delightful excursion. Reading ''The Book o1 Berkshire is next to visiting delightful region; in some respects it surpasses it, for many who visit Berkshire do not gather fraction of the interesting in. formation contained in the volume which is compiled by gentlemen wbo have spent lifetime there and have made the volume labor of love rather than expectation of pecuniary reward, as the nominal price asked for the book fully attests.

The broad acres around the house, with field sports for children and young people, an unex- celled system of drainage, pleasant and attentive landlord and lady, with polite walters and rooms comfortably and neatly furnished, with many other attractions too numerous to mention, go to make up the sum total of what we found at Hillhurst.
 With reluctance we bade farewell to MT Baker. for John K. Shepard, who has pleasant home in the village, was in waiting with his conveyance, and in | company with him we were taken through various streets to the Hltna silk works, where we received much atten- | ton from Joseph Selden, the manager, and were each presented with box of spool silk and also specimens of elastic goods manufactured there by George s. Colton of Easthampton, Mass. We wis ited the city of the dead, with its many acres, costly monuments, ancient head stones, avenues, walks and flowers, and afterwards were introduced to Joseph N.Cowles, of the banking firm of Cowles < Eldridge, who showed us the new | town hall.
 Among many late improvements iu Norfolk the new road leading from the Stevens House to Hillhurst, built by MT F. M. Shepard of East Orange, N. J., attracts the attention of the tourist.
 After calling upon several of the chief citizens of the place, we found that the day had passed as quickly as @ night of happy dreams goes by, and we took our departure on the evening train for Can aan. Never while memory lasts shall we forget that day in Norfolk with the kindness and generous hospitality of Messrs Stoeckel, Shepard, Baker and others. H. C.. ".
