The Best Time to Propose.

When you have found the sweetest girl
In all the world to you,
And know that you give her a love that will last,
A love that will be true
When among the cluster of blooming girls
She seems the one queen rose -
Then the very first chance that you can find
Is the very best time to propose
L met your mother one spring time, boys,
And loved her in less than day;
But all the days of the summer passed
Before I found courage to say
The simple words that sealed our fate,
Though oft to my lips they rose;
1 wanted romantic time
Than could find to propose.
When we walked home from the village church,
The brothers and sisters came, too;
I never could find time to my taste,
But said: ssThs never will do;
1 may lose my lass if wait so long;
I will speak ere this day shall close"
So I started out for my darling's home,
With my mind made up to propose.
1 walked up the path beneath the trees,
And round to the kitchen door;
And there on the porch found the maid,
Farer than ever before,
With the soapsuds fiickering round her white arms
For she was washing the clothes;
She was all alone, and said to myself:
''Now is the time to propose"
But what 1 said shall not repeat;
Each lover must find his own way;
But o. received answer sweet,
Though never word did she say;
And had waited and dallied along,
Would have won her? Who knows?
1 tell you, boys, when you've found your love,
That then is the time to propose.

God / have never been "A republican.
/ will never have that sin 10 answer
for"
DIR. Brooks also said, as reported
by an organ of his own party:
A" And / want 60 say fur
ther, that, under the present regime
of that party (republiean), aud the
waving of the bloody shirt, and the
perpetuity of the sad memories OF
the war, the time will never come
until Gabriel blows his trumpet that
the negro uote in the south will be
counted"
The prohibitory party seeks to re-
cruit it ranks chiefly from the repub-
lican party, and large part Of its
membership is composed Of men who
were once republicans, and who have
still, it may be presumed, some re-
gard for the record of that party and
for the grand work it accomplished
in the cause of human freedom. To
present to them as a candidate "A man
who publicly thanks God that he
never was republican, and who
boasts as pnbliely, that the negro
vote will not be counted, IL an act

The Glover Boy is of the most perfect horses
in Northern Vermont. Our country is flooded witt
small horses of little value. Such horses not il
great demand. Horses of 100 lbs. with gooo
style and action, will always be in demand at higl
prices. 1t costs but few dollars at the start
to raise colt to bring $500 to $500 at four years
old, than to raise which can never bring more
than half that price at the same age.
He is u beautiful bay with black points, 16 hands
high and weighs over 200 lbs. He has taken first
premiums at Caledonia and Orleans County Fairs.
Glover Boy sired by Prince Albert, Jr., his
dam thoroughbred Burush Morgan. He was
formerly owned in Cookshire, p. O., and has since
bert thoroughbred English and imported by
the Drummond Agricultural Society at a cost of
$4,000 and was noted for style, durability and
speed. The Bulrush Morgan is a breed of horses
usually weighing 100 lbs, and noted as the
best farm horses, superior roadsters, and for
ing to maturity from one to two years younger than
the average horse.

Times Changes.

The songs we sung in other years.
They greet US now more;
Tho loves that reused our hopes and fears
Are vanished now, and DER.
The friends we loved are scattered wide,
Familiar scenes are changed;
And hearts that once were true and tried,
Are lifeless or -estranged.
The way was bright before us then,
The coming day seemed fair;
We mingled with our fellow men,
With hearts to do and dare.
The hopes of youth are faded now,
Its feathered dreams are past;
And time upon your furrowed brow,
His sllvery shade has cast.
We, too, are changed, but not in heart
Old Time may do his worst,
He cannot from remembrance part
The things we loved at first.
The eye may dim, the cheek grow pale,
The SHOWS of age may fall,
Yet shall our memory never fail
To heed affections call.

A Dakota Homo.

"Live? Why, they prepare for H..
The early comers generally put up
sod houses, and there is nothing la
the world so warm as a sod house.
You can walk around barefoot on the
floor of one, if properly constructed,
i'm the coldest weather. After they
have been there long enough settlers
generally build Lighthouses, hauling
logs thirty or forty miles for the pur-
pose. These houses are warm and
comfortable. So long as you don't
have to go out, you don't know what
winter is. But the sod house is not
to be treated with disdain, assure
you"
"How are they builtY"
SIN the first place, a frame Of
boards, the size of the house Is 20 be
put up so as to give the house a nice
appearance inside the roof also is
boarded over. Then the sod is cut
with a pillow and bank three or four
feet thick is raised all around this
frame. Every sod is land as careful
ly as a mason lays a brick, the roots
up, and all openings are filed in with
fine dirt. Openings are made for the
windows and doors, which have
frames extending from inside TO out
side. These will contain sometimes
three windows for winter-always
two. When the sod rampant is rais-
ed to the height of the roof, poles are
laid on and then sod put over those.
The roots hold everything firm. You
would be surprised TO see the roots.
Some of those grass roots are as thick
as my finger and extend down from
ten to fourteen feet"
"What?"
"It's a fact, / assure you; ! have
followed them down myself when
digging wells in that blue joint grass
land. Why. a man in ploughing has
to stop and sharpen his plough every
eighty rods if he cares anything for
his team. The blacksmith draws out
the point, but that and the edge have
to bc filed down as sharp as possible,
and then, as / say, sharpened every
eighty rods. But 10 return 10 the sod
house. After the outside is complet-
ed, the inside is finished up to suit
the taste and pocket of the proprie-
tor. Some have only the earthen
floor, and others have a board floor
and are divided up into two or three
rooms, and, tell You, for winter
comfort in Dakota a sod house beats
them all. Besides these there are
dugouts on the side of hill, and oc-
you will meet one on the /
prairie The class OF settles that |
come in there, as a rule, have 20 put /
up with almost anything for the first /
year OF two. They count the cost /
and are prepared to meet the bill."
