THAT PIANO NEXT DOOR.

Will any thing stop that piano next doore
Beginning at daylight, till midnight is Ger,
It's hammered and pounded and sung IT and
banged
By music mad people who ought 10 be hanged.
In Weakened each morn when a schoolgirl be
gins
To practice the scales till I'm punished for sins;
Then her oyergrown sister, who sings like 6
cow,
Keeps up till the noon her ear-torturing row.
After dinner that tin-pan piano resounds
With horrible medley of finger pounds
From children unruly, from BABY and nurse.
Till its racket Of discord can hardly be worse.
After supper that family of musical mirth
Torment that piano for all they are worth;
All street-organ tunes that Wagnerite hates,
AL topical songs that such anguish creates,
Are jingled and tangled and warbled and played
Till dogs howl in chorus and cats are afraid.
On Sundays, when decent pianos viii rest,
This rattle-box nuisance is doing its best;
The men folks around it, with crazy delight,
Shout camp-meeting hymns with steam en-.
gine's might;
Like fog-horns, like thunder, like animals
roars,
Their voices, let loose, rattle windows and
doors.
md then, while they take just a moment for
breath,
You hear that piano. that stops not for DEATH
II something don't quench that piano nes door
The folks who torment it viii weller in gore.

Sunshine as a Medicine.

Sleepless peOple-and there are
many in Amcrica--should court the

Therefore, it is very plain that sleepers
should pass as many hours of the day
as possible in the sunshine, and as few
as possible in the shade. Many
women are martyrs, and do not know
il. They shut the sunshine out of
their houses and their hearts; they
wear walls, they carry parasols; they
do all that is possible to keep off the
subtlest and yet the most potent in

strength. and beauty. and cheerful

improvements.

More improvements have been made
and are being made this spring in and around
Napoleon, than for the past five years all put
together. The result is that real estate has
advanced from 20 to 25 per cent. Paint and
paper seem to figure most largely in these
improvements. Saur & Balsley are carrying
a large stock of both these articles, and every
one who goes there always finds that which
pleases them in price, style and quality, and
the result is that they buy, sometimes,
even when they are not quite ready. Saur
and Balsley's Paint Depot is always well sup
piled with all kinds of paints, in fact, when
anyone wants something which he can find
no where else, he is sure to find it there

the lowest.
