to the OLD ra5,oiiis. The Russian priests
added that man was created in this
month, because more fruit ripens in il
than in any other. That was when they
had no ideas of south latitude and had
never heard of the equator. In tho
Roman calendar it was the seventh
month, and SO they named it from sep.
tem-''seven."
October was the Romans eighth month
originally, and therefore named from
o;to-'eight." In the old legends it
was set down as the month in which
Adam and Eve were expelled from para
disc.
This was ninth (novem) month to the
Romans. 1t has long been a notable
month for signs and omens, as well as
religious dates, though no one can show
why. The Saxons called it 'blood
month, because they slaughtered cattle
and sailed away all their winters beef
in this month. The old Romans had
many important religious observances
in this month, and the Christians have
adopted some of them. It closes most
appropriately with general thanks
giving for the fruits of the season past.
The tenth (decem) month in the old
Roman calendar, but now the twelfth,
is the month of holy memories in all
Christian lands. The yule log and the
Christmas tree, Kris Kringle and Santa
Claus. the vacation, the home coming,
the gifts and the holidays-these are of
December. Christmas has conquered all
classes. The old Puritans fought against
it in vain. So by the triumph of faith
and civilization combined the season OF
cold and often OF sleet and rain, the
time Of shortest days and longest nights.
is turned into the season of greatest
cheer and hilarity. j. H. BEADLE.

Mr.. J. 2. Biaize, an extensive
real estate dealer in Des Moines,
Iowa, narrowly escaped one OF the
sevrrest attacks of pneumonia
while in the northern part of that
state during a recent blizzard, says
the Saturday Review. Mr.. Blaize
had occasion to drive several miles
during the storm and was so thor
oughly chilled that he was unable
to get warm, and inside of an hour
after his return he was threatened
with a severe case of pneumonia or
lung fever. Mr.. Blaize sent to the
nearest drug store and got bottle
of Chamerlain's Cough Remedy,
of which he had often heard, and
took a number of large doses. He
says the effect was wonderful and
in short time he was breathing
quite easily. He kept on taking
the medicine and the next day was
able to come to Des Moines. Mr..
Blaize regards his cure as simply
wonderful. For sale by all drug

When the New Year Begins.

Among most oriental peoples the year
is lunar and begins with the first full
moon of December. In England, from
the Fourteenth century to the change Of
calendar in 1859, the legal year began
on March 25, and after the change was
made much confusion in dates resulted
before the matter was fully understood.
Even yet historical issue is sometimes
clouded by the difference in modes of
reckoning, and it is thus made uncer-
tain whether an event took place in the
year named or in that following.
The present beginning of the year on
Jan. l, in the middle of winter, is not a
natural but an entirely artificial start
ing point. The Greek year originally
began with the winter solstice, as did
the year of most northern nations.
Among the Latin Christian countries
there were seven different dates for be-
ginning the new year. March 1, Jan. 1,
Dec. 20, March 25, used in two ways
first, by beginning the year nine months
sooner than at present; second, by be-
ginning it three months later-at Easter
and on the feast of ascension.
The usage of the same country has
also varied at different times.
In France under the Merovingians the
year began on March L; the Cerlovin-
gians began their year on Dec. 25,
and the Capetians at Easter. The Ro-
mans, till Caesars time, began the year
on March l, and an illustration of the
reluctance to change names is seen III
the fact that, although the names Sep
TENDER, October. November and De
cember originally denoted the number
of the month, they are now grossly in
applicable.
The Egyptians, Chaldeans, Persians.
Syrians, Phoenicians and Carshaginians
began their year in the autumn, as did
the Jews their civil year.

THE REV YEAR.

A flower unknown; . book unread:
A tree with fruit uRharvested;
A path untrod; a house whose rooms
Lack yet the hearts divine perfumes
A landscape whose wide border lies
In silent shade meath silent skies:
A wondrous fountain yet unsealed;
A casket with its gifts concealed;
This is the year that for you waits
Beyond tomorrow's mystic gates.
Oh, may this flower unfold to you
Visions of beauty sweet and new:
This book on golden pages trace
Your sacred joys and deeds of gracel
May all the fruit of this strange tree
Luscious and rosy tinted be;
This path through fields of knowledge GO
This house with loves content o'erfow;
This landscape glitter with the dew
OF blessed hopes and friendships true;
This fountains living crystal cheer,
As fail the springs that once were dear:
This casket with such gems he stored
AS shine in lives that love the Lord!

GEN. DRYENFoRrH OUTDONE:

OR A BAD MANS FATE.
spectfully inscribed to Old Corkscrew
Larry Lockwood weighed ton,
Minus eighteen hundred pounds,
And the pellets from gun
Never chased him off the grounds,
Tho the head that filled his hat
Had collided with few,
And he carried all his fat
Where he was the biggest through.
Larry kept little joint,
just the place some people hunt,
And when coming to the point
He was always very blunt,
For his tongue was very thick
And his language out of date,
Yet Withal he was brick
That would fit in any state.
He was fond of Doodle too,
For he was city dad,
And his liquor through and through
Was a tritie worse than bad,
Still the voters day ana night,
Flocked around the serpent juice
Just TO put it out of sight
And to turn the planet loose.
Gentle peace disturbed his mind,
Deadly ructiOns cleared his gloom,
For he bordered on the kind
That found humor on tomb,
And his fists like cotton bales
Made his shoulders full of harm,
While his breath could blow the rails
Off ninety-acre farm.
He approached mule one day
That no mortal could ascend,
And to make the hybrid bray
Twisted something at the end,
When the mule to make it rain
Shot the clouds with flesh and bone,
So perhaps that flash of brain
Made it rain in San Antoine.
