THE LATE DUKE OF BEDFORD.
An Instance of Ills Kindness of Heart to
an Aged Tenant Farmer.

An Instance of Ills Kindness of Heart to
an Aged Tenant Farmer.
The late Duke of Bedford's Tayistock
agent, now deceased, was reputed TO carry
matters with somewhat high and even a
tyrannieal hand. and, having desire to
benefit neighboring tenant, had given an
old farmer notice to quit possession of a
field, Which for several generations had been
part and parcel of the farm which he and
his fathers before him had rented from the
Duke, says the Iilusti ated American, This
interference was greatly resented by the
farmer, who, however, could get no satisfac-
ton frGm the agent, and he finally left the
latter with the threat that he would see
the Duke" Il threat which the agent heard
with little concern, knowing well that the
old man had never strayed more than few
miles from TayiStock, and judging accord
ingly that he was not likely to journey sud
denly to "Lunnon."
He reckoned, however, without knowl-
edge, for the old farmer went straight home
donned his Sunday BEST and. TO the
amaZtment of his folk, marched off to the
railway-station and took his ticket for Pad
dington.
The scene changes to the mansion in
Eaton square, where, about O'Clock in the
evening, an old eOuntryman, dressed in a
style OF fifty years ago, knocks at the door,
and, in excited and well-nigh breathless ac-
cents, asks the footmau who opens it if Mr..
Duke of Bedford" lived there. The foot
man guessed something of the state Of the
case and forthwith took word to his Grace
that one of his Tavist0ck tenants wished to
see him, and Immediately the old man was
ushered into the presence of Mr.. Duke"
Not till then did the old farmers courage
give way, but, seated in the luxurious
library, words altogether failed him.
The Duke ordered up refreshments, but
they were refused by the old man until he
had told his tale, which he did in broken ac-
cents, and the Duke listened attentively,
asking one or two simple but direct ques-
tions, and then told his old tenant that he
need not trouble any more, as he should
give orders that his tenancy was not to be
disturbed. But the Dukes kindness did
not end there. for ascertaining that the old
man had no notion of nights lodging, or
indeed of his next step, the Duke ordered
his carriage, had the old man driven to Pad
dington, and safely deposited in the night
mail with first-class ticket to Tavistock in
his pocket

years ago, in harvest time, young

rhea and collie pains, that he would
have to lay off unless he could get re-
lief. took bottle of your diarrhma
remedy from the shelf; gave him a
dose sold him the bottle, and told
him | would give him the money back
if IL did no good. He came in next
morning and said the single dose did
its work so well, that he not only kept
up his place binding during the after
noon, but had worked all night; and
had the price of the dose | gave him
been three dollars, it would have
been cheap. / will further say, keep
on with your good work. You cannot
recommend your medicine too highly.
