BEAT YOUR DAD.

Said Adam unto Seth, his son:
" My boy, tho world has just begun,
The late unpleasantness with Cain
Gave Eve and me unmingled pain,
And that misfortune with the snake
Was most bitter pill to take;
But still, my son, the world is new,
And there is work enough for you.
Go In TO win, my trusty lad,
Go in and try to beat your dad"
Said Seth to Enos, his flrstborn:
Your young life now is in its morn,
You've scarcely passed from boyhood's
stage
You're but four hundred years Of age.
I've struggled on with hopes and fears,
And lived good five hundred years;
And now feel that there can be
But few centuries more for me.
My life, q careless summer day,
In idle dreams has passed away;
But you, upon life's threshold glad
Go In to win and beat your dad"
Said Enos unto Cainan: boy,
My eldest born, my greatest JOY
Your gifts have surely not been hid,
r. You are most precocious kid;
i wonder how o head so small
AS yours is now, can know 1t all.
sCdMy form is bent, my head is gray,
I've done but little in my day;
How like fieeting mist appears
My short life OF nine hundred yearsi
My plans were many meath the sun,
But all my work is left undone;
But you, my boy be brave and glad
Go in TO win and beat your dad"
Said Cainan to Mahalaleel
The ghout and rhematiz feel,
And now ! am as old and dried
AS father Enos when he died.
And since the era of my birth
There've been strange doings on the earth,
And, though I'm old and blind, see
Things are not as they used to be-
gladly tread with yielding breath,
The starless road that leads to death;
But CO. Mahalaleel, my lad
Go In to win, and beat your dad"
Mahalaleel to Jared said:
"My son, tits time that were dead
I've passed pilgrimage of tears,
Eight hundred, ninety and five years.
leave, to mg own trust untrue,
The work / should have done, to YOU
But though our life's deformed by scars,
Hope is eternal as the stars.
Yes, Jared, boy, be strong and glad,
Go In to win and beat your dad"
And Jared when his life was done,
The same to Enoch talked, his son,
And Enoch, like faithful pa,
The same to young Methuselah.
This he to Lamech tells once more
And Lamech tells the same to Noah;
And then the food came on to rout
And drown the whole creation out.
The world had grown corrupt and bad,
With each man better than his dad.
The world to-day they say is bad
But each man tries to beat his dad
And though The clouds of night draw nigh,
And shut the sun from out the sky,
And though life marches through the gloor
To music of the steps Of doom,
This voice comes through the darkness fal
And smites the cloudrack like n star,
Exultant, hopeful, fearless, glad:
7" Go in TO win, and beat your dad"
IS. w. Foss, in Toledo Blade.

womanhood, every young girl needs
the wisest care. Troubles beginning
then may make her whole life mis-
cradle.
But the troubles that are to-, be
feared have a positive remedy. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription builds
up and strengthens the system, and
regulates and promotes every PROPER
function. It's a generous, support
ing tonic, and a quoting, soothing
nervine "a legitimate medicine, not
beverage, free from alcohol and
injurious drugs. 1t corrects and
cures, safely and surely, all those
delicate arrangements, weaknesses,
and diseases peculiar to the sex.
A remedy that does cure is one
that can be guaranteed. That's
what the proprietors of "Favorite
Prescription " think. If it doesn't
give satisfaction, in every case for
which it's recommended, they'll re-
fund the money. No other medicine
for women is sold on such terms.
Decide for yourself whether some
thing else sold by the dealer, is
likely to be "just as good" for
you to buy.

A Fearful Feat.

That whisky will ruin there is no ones
ton; at least the fact was demonstrated at
the police station yesterday, when George
Stratton endeavored to take his own life
with the blade of knife. Night before last
Stratton, who, by the way, is professional
gambler, was found by the police in a room
over the Switch saloon almost in fit of
delirium tremens, and was taken to the
city jail to sober up. Yesterday about
noon, the man had apparently re
gained his proper mind and talked
1ovially with those around him
He called to Tailor Baxter and asked for a
knife stating that he wished to trim his
finger nails. Col. Baxter, thinking moth
ing further of the matter, granted the re-
quest but he had hardly disappeared from
view when he heard a noise in the apart
ment occupied by Stratton. The thought
flashed into his mind that something was
wrong and at once retraced his steps and
found Stratton sprawling on the floor with
the weapon in his hand and endeavoring to
pierce his heart with it.
He managed to cut an ugly cash in his
side but nothing of a fatal nature was ex
hibithd. The fellow was relieved of the
knife and left in his cell after being medi-
cally treated.

A Large Meeting.

The meeting of the Ogden real estate
exchange was characterized by the large
attendance yesterday. Nearly every
broker in the city was present, and large
number of spectators were present TO
listen to the address delivered to the ex-
change by Judge L. r. Rhodes. The jud ge
spoke in his usual influential strain, and
was listened to with intense interest By
those present The substance of Mr..
Rhodes discourse was as follows:
Gentlemen of the exchange:
There is legend of an old man who was
about to die. He had seven sons, whose
welfare, was, to him, matter of much
concern. Having assembled them he pre-
sented them with bundle of seven Withes.
securely fastened together, saying that to
the one that would break the bundles he
would leave MS fortune and his blessing
Each son in turn eXerted his greatest
strength but failed. Then separating the
bundles he presented each a single withe
requesting him to break it; this they easily
did. He then said you see how easily they
are broken when not united; let
this be lesson to you. Be
united in your efforts; let the strength
of each be exerted in behalf
of all and you are invincible. This CITY is
filed with young enterprising business
men, loyal to the purpose of bbilding up a
city, which may in the future be their
pride. The real estate exchange, if prop
erly conducted, is typical of the idea repre-
Sented in the legend TO which have re-
ferred. We find it composed of a number
Of persons uniting in their strength, talent
and enterprise in the effort of building up a
city, By inducing immigration, by encour-
aging the building of homes, by inducing
men of means TO invest their capital and
become interested with US, and by reason of
such result securing their individual wei
fare.
The transaction of business pertaining to
real estate brings the agent in contact with
two classes-those who want to sell and
those who want to buy. Correct business
habits precludes the idea of the agent rep
resenting the buyer and the seller at the
same time, The object of the seller is to
procure as good price as he can; the object
of the buyer, TO purchase as low rs posi-.
BILE. An individual is incapable of accom-
plishing both these results. and he who un-
Gertakes 1t viii soon find that he has to re-
lnquish the idea or find himself treading
the paths Of dishonesty. Enterprise

tons. but il must be in the right direction.

Suing a ChurChman.

Mrs. Ann Johnson, of Manchester,
England, has filed suit against Will
liam Holland in the Forty-fifth court
to perfect title and in the Thirty
seventh court for debt. In the former
suit her petition says that William
Holland, as agent for her, bought
with 81. $50 of her money, and held in
trust for her. two lots on Elmira
street, in April, 1885. from J. T. Hum
ter. In May, 1889, she gave him an or
der to transfer the deed from himself
to H. P. Drought, still in trust for her.
Some time ago, continues the petition,
she had Mr.. Drought sell the proper
ty for her, and it was discovered that
the defendant had only decided to Mr..
Drought one half of one of the two
lots, so that he could not give full
title to the lots as represented in the
contrac of sale.
Mr.. Holland is a merchant of this
city, and a member of the Baptist
church.
