TAKE A REST.

The people of this county do not need
to be reminded Of their duty to work. AS
a general thing they work too much-tOo
necessarily. Many a man, many a wom-
an has cut short their days of usefulness
because they failed to take proper rest.
The over-strung bow is sure to break I'M
less the tension is loosened in time. Now
here comes the Old Settlers picnic. 1t on
ly comes once year. 1t offers you one
day of rest, one day of recreation, one day
of enjoyment. You have secured one Of
the most bountiful crops Of hay; the bar
lev, oats and wheat are all stacked. A
few hours at the picnic will change the
current of life You will see multitude
You will see new faces The scene VIII
appear new You will hear new
thoughts Happy smiles on faces will
chase away the crooked lines Of care. a
day of rest will give you new vigor and
more strength, and lengthen out the span
Of YOUR life Let the blacksmith, the car
penter and shoemaker come. Let the
merchant and the manufacturer come.
Let the preacher, the doctor and the law
yer come. Let everybody come and en-
ioy-the speaking, the grass, the great
trees, the trembling shade of the leaves,
and the loneliness of the lake.
Yours truly,
r. T. ROBERTS, Sec'y.
