msnts and began playing some Of the
national airs. which were received
with hearty applause by the boys in
blue and sepulchral groans from the
boys In gray. The Johnny RebS not
to be outdone. also called out their
band. which played the melodies so
dear to The southerner and which
were received with acclamations of
Joy on one side and shouts OF derision
on, the other. Finally the Union
leader. placing his cornet to his lips,
began playing the familiar strains of

A writer offers some wholesome ad-
vice when he says, if you have little
farm or little business, and are out Of
debt, don't fret and work yourself and
wife into the grave for the sake of max.
ing money. You have but one life to
live, and it is very hard at best. Take
a little pleasure and comfort as you &C
along day by day, and try to do good to
others. Morbid, unsatisfied desire tc
possess the earth. to grab everything ir
sight, is at the foundation of mort
misery than most any one thing
Wealth alone will never keep you
memory green after you are gone
good life and kind actions will.
