0oThe Gond Old DnYs."

81 guess these farmers who are grOaning
about the wrongs they have to put up with,
to say nothing of low prices and high tax
es, and who long for the good old times, be-
fore railroad monopOlies ground them, and
when every mans hand was not raised
against them, don't remember much about
the good old times said a well-known
Orange county, n. Y, farmer, who has
lived in that county more than IS years
and owned farm for go.
81 can remember when we used to haul
our grain, butter. pork, eggs and every
thing else we had to ell all the way to
Newburg, taking one day to 90 and another
to come home. We generally got - cents
bushel for oats and 10 cents a pound for
butter. Anything like Is cents a bushel
for wheat was fancy price If we got
six or eight cents a dozen for eggs we
thought we were doing well. Nice corn
fed pork, dressed, we Carted to market for
81 hundred. The butter we put on the
market in those days was the genuine
Orange county article, yellow as gold and
hard as a walnut have sold tubful after
tubful of the choicest butter for 10 cents a
pound that would net me - cents if had
it to sell now.
THAT was before the Erie railway came
through here and put us up to selling our
milk instead of making it into butter. We
didn't have any lime-preserved eggs to sell
in those days, either. As for taxes | paid
500 on my farm of 100 acres when / vas
getting 10 cents for my butter On the
same farm now pay less than $50, and |
sell my entire dairy of milk for what would
be more than three times 10 cents pound
for butter. l tell you there is good deal
of humbug in this referring to the good old
days as being the golden age of farming.
They were nothing of the sort. "-Netc

No Joke to be Tarred and Feathered.


People who read of tarring and feather
ing by White Caps and others know that
the punishment is very unpleasant one,
but few imagine how terribly painful and
dangerous it is. In Wyoming once saw
a man who had been tarred and feathered,
and although the wretch deserved the dis
cipline | could not help plying him.
Hardened tar is very hard to remove
from the skin, and when feathers are add
ed it forms a kind of cement that sticks
closer than a brother. AS soon as the tar
sets the victims suffering begins. 1t con-
tracts as it cools, and every one of the lit
tie veins on the body is pulled causing the
most exquisite agony. The perspiration is
entirely stopped, and unless the tar is re-
moved death is certain to ensue. But the
removal is no easy task and requires sever
al days. The tar cannot be softened by
the application of heat, and must be peel
ed off bit by bit, sweet oil being used to
make the process less painful. The irrita-
ton to the skin is very great, as the hairs
cannot be disengaged, but must be pulled
out or cut off. No man can be cleaned of
tar in single day, as the pain of the oper-
alton would be too excruciating for endur-
ance, and unless this is done he has to suf-
fer from a pain like that of 10000 pin
pricks.
Numbers of men have died under the
torture, and none who have gone through
it regard tarring and feathering as any
thing but most fearful infiction.-.St.
Louis Globe Democrat.

The young man from the country has
been writing up the sorrows of the decrep-
it old woman who plays the wheezy hand
organ, and who, like her instrument, seems
to have reached the furthest point of nat
ural decay. No sympathy is needed in the
case The organ, which gives out scarcely
one note in ten, and then in most asth-
matte tone, is professionally known as "a
wheezer,' and brings a higher rent than a
fine new instrument, for the reason that it
appeals powerfully to the sympathies OF
the animated, especially those who have
brought tender hearts with them from the
rural regions.-Nelo York Sun.

MISCELLANY.


The rich mans son inherits lands,
And piles Of brick, and stone. and gold;
And he nherits soft white hands,
And tender flesh that fears the cold,
Nor dares to wear n garment old;
A heritage, it seems to me,
One scarce would wish to hold in fee.
The rich mans son inherits cares
The bank may break, the factory burn,
A breath may burst his bubble shares
And soft white hands could hardly earn
A living that would serve his turn;
A heritage il seems to me,
one scarce would wish to hold in fee.
The rich mans son inherits wants,
His stomach Graves for dainty fare;
With stated heart he hears the pants
OF toiling kinds with brown arms bare,
And wearies in his easy chair;
A heritage, it seems to me,
One scarce would wish to hold in fee
What doth the poor mans son inheritg
Stout muscles and sinewy heart,
A hardy frame, a harder spirit.
King of two hands, Inc does his part
In every useful toll and art;
A heritage, II seems to me,
A king might wish to hold in fee.
What doth the poor mans son inheritg
Wishes o'erioyed with humble things,
A rank adjudged by tOil-worn merit,
Content that from employment springs,
A heart that in his labor sings;
A heritage, 1t seems to me,
A king might wish to hold in fee.
What doth the poor mans son inherit:
patience learned of being poor;
Courage, if sorrow come, to bear il;
A fellow feeling that is sure
To make the Outcast bless his door;
A heritage, it seems to me,
A king might wish to hold in fee.
O rich mans som there is toll
That with all others level stands:
Large charity doth never soil,
But only Written, soft white hands
This is the best crop from thy lands;
A heritage, it seems to me,
Worth being rich to hold in fee.
O poor mans son ScOIn not thy state;
There is worse WEAKNESS than thine
In merely being rich and great:
Toll only gives the soul to shine,
And makes rest fragrant and benign
A heritage ii seems to me,
Worth being poor TO hold in fee.
Both, heirs to some six feet of sod
Are equal in the earth at last:
Both. children of the same dear God,
Prove title to your heirshp vast
BY record of a well-fled past;
A heritage, it seems to me,
Well worth a life to hold in fee.
