ONE AT A TIME.

One step at time. and that we'll placed,
We reach the grandest height;
One stroke at a time, earth hidden stores
Will slowly come to light:
One seed at time. and the forest grows;
One drop at a time and the river flows
Into the boundless sea.
One word at a time, and the greatest book
Is written and is read;
One stone at a time and palace rears
Aloft its stately head;
One blow at time, and the tree s.cleft through
And a city will stand where the forest grew
A few short years before.
One foe at time, and he subdued,
And the conflict will be won;
One grain at time, and the sand of life
Will slowly all be run;
One minute, another the hours fly;
One day at a time, and our lives speed by
Into eternity.
One grain of knowledge. and that well stored.
Another. and more on them.
And as time rolls on your mind will shine
With many garnered gem
OF thought and wisdom. And time will tell
"ene thing at time and that done WE'LL"
Is wisdom's proven rule.

Dosing on ShipbOard.

Curious yarns are spun about the method
of dispensing followed by divers captains
on deep water. The sea lawyer usually
found in ships forecastle fondly asserts
that each bottle of the medicine chest bears
a distinguishing number, and upon this
foundation proceeds to build the following
story, which is redOlent of the salt sea. An
illiterate ShpmaSter, having consulted his
book of medical instructions. found that
strong dose from number six bottle was the
proper remedy for sick sailor standing be-
fore him. Number six, however, had been
in great request during the passage, and not
drop remained. For moment the anna
teur doctor was at a loss. An inspiration
Opportunely caused his corrugated brow to
smoother. He mixed together portions
from bottle number two and number four
on the strictly arithmetical principle that
two and four make six! DepOnent sayeth
not what effect, if any, the dreadful decoc-
tiOn had upon the seaman. Another story
tells equally against the sister service. It
is related that lieutenant in command of
one of her Majesty's gunbOats deemed the
responsibility of the charge of a medicine
chest too much for him. Immediately she
was off sOundings the gallant officer mus.
tered all hands, and divided the contents of
the chest equally, so that each had ''hiS
whack and na mair." There is another
naval yarn in this connection we'll worth
mentioning. A man of war doctor. whose
name is unfortunately lost to posterity. had
simple method of locating mans ailment
and alleviating it (save the markD by dras-
tic and infallible remedies. He would tie
piece of tape around the waist of the COM
planning mariner. and command him to de-
clare whether his pain existed above or be-
low the tape. If above, an emetic. and if
below. dose of salts followed as matter
of cOurSe.-Pall Mall Budget.

A Daniel Come to Judgment.

Two PenObscOt county farmers bought
an old fashioned pair of steelyards. each
paying part of the cost, and both used
them for weighing their produce for market.
After time dispute arose. and each
claimed to own them. The matter was
carried into court. The jury disagreed.
Then the case. on some technicality, was
back for trial. The costs up to this point
had reached about five hundred dollars.
about hundred times the original cost of
the steelyards. When it came up again,
Judge Peters was the presiding justice. He
told the counsel that. if continued. the costs
would be increased to such an extent that
one or the other of the parties would lose
his farm in order to pay, and advised them
to enter it ''neither party" and divide the
costs. After consultation. the parties
said that they were willing to do that. and
it looked as if the case would be settled.
All at once one of the contestants went over
to his counsel in the courtroom and asked,
But who is going to get the steelyards?
He shall not have them" The other con-
testant made the same declaration. Then
the counsel arose and said the case was just
where it was before any talk of settlement
had been made. They were willing to stop
litigation and divide the costs. but what
could be done with the steelyards?" 'I'n
fix that" said Judge Peters, ''Let the sheriff
of the county take the steelyards at night
and go down and throw them into the mid
die of the river, letting nobody know the
exact spot. so that they can never be re.
covered by any One." The contestants
agreed to this proposition. each paid his
prOpOrtiOnate part of the costs, and the
case was drOpped.-LewistOn Journal.

precious fuel. Frightful losses were also

Success.

A fine story is told that when Goethe had
become famous, very young man glibly
asked him: "What is experience?" Goethe
answered thus: "Experience. my young
friend. is that experience which man eX-
periences in experiencing his experience. !"
The young man turned on his heel with the
remark: 'YOu are fOol!' Years after he
came to Goethe and acknowledged that his
