ENJOY AS YOU co.

Some people mean to have a good time when their hard work is done-say at 50. Others plan to enjoy themselves when their children grow up. Others mean to take their pleasures when they get rich, or when their business is on sure founda- tion, or the farm is paid for, or the grind of some particular sorrow is past. These individuals might as well give up the idea of ever having 8 good time. The season of delight which is so long waited for rarely comes. Disease, poverty, and death, each claims its victims. The lives of those we love or our own go out, and then what is left?
 Then take your pleasure to-day while vet there is time. Things may not be in the best shape for the visit that you have been so long planning to your only sister. It might be better if you could wait until you had more stylish suit of clothes, or till the boy was home from college to look after the place; but she is ready now. You are both growing old-you had better go now.
 John drives around with the horse. stJump in, mother" he says "it is a lovely day and you need the fresh air. |" Don't say, s'I can't go, was intending to make doughnuts," or, "My crimping- pins are not out," or, "My dress ia not chang ed." Put on warm cloak, tie veil around your hat, and take such things when you can get them; they are apt to be shy when you want them again.
 Don't say, 1T shall be glad when that child is grown up. What trouble he makes" No; enjoy his cunning ways ; revel in his affectionate hugs and kisses ; they will not be so plentiful by-and-by. Enjoy his childhood. It will look sweet "A T,so %1n1 littles of every day. The great favors of fortune come but to few, and those who have them tell us that the quiet homely | joys which are within the reach of all are infinitely better. Let us not cast them away, but treasure every sunbeam and get the light and warmth from it that the I blessings hold.

(J. H. Hale in Hartford CouranGy BUYING A HORSE.

Having been recently called upon to buy several new horses, and not being judge myself, (till after I have tested one six hunted mp Mir. s. O. Bowen, of Eastford, known all over the eastern part of the state as tsthe honest horse dealer of Windham county" He knows the value Of a good name even in the horse business, and as 8 result has built up very large business. The day l was there he had buyers from three counties of the state as well as from Massachusetts, and found all of them had gone way out of their reg ular beats of travel for the sake of dealing with man who valued his word in horse trade, just as he would in any other legiti- mate business. Don't understand me that all horse traders are dishonest; they are not. But Josh Billings used to say ''yu kin trust man tn be your Sunday school teecher, or tn kiss yur wife or even tn mar ry yur darter, but when it koms tn hoss trade yud better watch him dreadful close. :" But what has impressed me is the great number of new horses brought into the state each year. Sound young horses of eleven hundred pounds weight or over are in great demand and command high prices, and, while our farmers have of late years begun to breed them, it appears to me that they have not yet awakened to the fact that the best ''home market" is the horse mark ct, and that by keeping number of good mares on the farm and having them foal at different seasons of the year, they can be made to do all the farm work and besides raise colt year. With a good Percheron stallion or sire, animals. may be grown to be worth from $15U to $3OO when four years old. If any one doubts this, let him try in Hartford and Holland counties to
 buy. Some of them get of the fine stallion
 kept by MT. Ralph Cheney, of Manchester.
 for number years. Our rolling, hilly country produces more lasting animals than are bred in the prairie lands of the
 west. Talking with an old stage driver on a line running out of Perre, Dakota, some
 years ago, he said the only tough and last
 ing horses he had ever had were bred in a
 rolling country. Standing, walking and
 running on the hill side pastures when
 young developed many muscles that colt
 in flat country never had chance to use.

cigarettes when they are under sixteen years of age, has just been completed. It is p-a-nickel- in the-slot scheme. When the person who wishes a cigarette drops a penny in the slot, the cigarette drops down into small box, from which the buyer can take it out. These ma- chlnes are now being turned out at the Waterbury clock shop to the number of 1.OOO. It is said the machines are to be placed outside of cigar stores, and of course the dealer cannot watch every per. son that drops in penny and inquire into his or her age. Nevertheless, it is proba. ble that our courts will consider the matter in it's true light.

Ex-United States Treasurer Hyatt said to an interviewer: "Have ever had any scares ? No, excepting the daily scares. Every day has been scare with me, or at least source of anxiety. I have been un- able to get my mind away from the vaults, from my responsibility. Occasionally at night it has seemed to me must get out of bed and come down to the treasury and see if things were all right, and I can cas- fly see why Gen. Spinner used to sleep in his office, with the keys under his head and trusty watchman at his door. The old general slept in this very room for several years, by so doing adding nothing to the security of the treasure, but gaining there- mind. Not for twice the salary of the president of the United States would I again take on my shoulders the responsi- bility of the safe keeping of seven hundred millions of public money.

Cooley's Weekly: The New London draw bridge is to be opened next month.
 New London is vastly proud of her new bridge now that she has got it. It is something to be able to say that ones own town has the largest draw bridge on the
 face of the globe. That is what New Lon doners are saying now. The new bridge is of steel, and, although less than nine
 months ago the first blow was struck for it, in few weeks travellers between New York and Boston will be whirled over it as
 fast as the Shore Line trains can carry them, and New London's objectionable ferry transit will be done away with. Pre- cipitious Fort Griswold, the immense double e-track swing bridge, and the old Pequot House, so much loved by New Workers, are New London's three features now. There are four spans to the bridge, extending over distance of 46O feet on either side of the river. The great swing draw, which exceeds in size any ever built, is now being completed. It is 502 feet in length, with clear water way of 225 feet on either side of the center pier when thrown open. The spans of the draw are, of course, the most prominent feature of the work. The draw weighs about 2,4OO,. GOO pounds, and yet it is adjusted so nice. ly as to admit of it's being turned in either direction, and to make 8 complete revolu. tion. This is simple matter in ordinary road bridges, but it requires bit of good figuring and engineering in double tracked bridge of such magnitude. The draw will sustain a live weight of 5000 pounds per foot of track. The super structure of the bridge is wholly of steel
 every piece of which has been tested and not found wanting. It is l, ,422 feet long. The foundations for the central pier of the bridge were successfully laid under com bined depth of mud and water of 13O feet. an exceedingly difficult feat of engineering

Some peaches are now arriving from Tennessee and Kentucky, two new sources of supply. Adviees from lower Delaware state that the outlook IS good, and 8 large crop will be gathered. In upper Delaware, how over, small crop is predicted. There is no danger of peach famine, as Jersey will have many thousands of trees come in- to bearing for the first time this year and will supply any deficiency caused by slight crops elsewhere.
