THE FoRTY-ACRE FARM.

I'm thinking. wife, of neighbor Jones-that
man with stalwart arm
He lives in peace and plenty on forty-acre
farm;
When men are all around us, whose hearts
and hands are sore,
Who own ten thousand acres and still are
wanting more.
His is pretty little farm-a pretty little
house;
He has a loving wife within, as quiet as a
mouse.
His children play around the door-their
fathers heart to charm,
Looking just as neat and tidy as the tidy little
farm.
No weeds are in the cornfield, no thistles in
The horses show good keeping by their fine
and glossy coats;
The cows within the meadows resting meath
the beacon shade,
Learn all their gentle manners from q gentle
milking maid.
Within the field on Saturday he leaves no
cradled grain
To be gathered on the morrow for fear of com
ing rain.
He keeps the Sabbath holy-his children learn
And plenty ills his barns and bins after the
harvest days.
He never has lawsuit to take him to the
town,
For the very simple reason, there are no fences
down;
The bar-room in the village does not have for
him a charm,
! can always find my neighbor on his forty
acre farm.
His acres are so very few-he plows them very
deep.
'Tis his own hand that turns the sod-'tis his
own hand that reaps;
He has place for everything and things are
in their place.
The sunshine smiles upon his field, content
ment in his face.
May we not learn lesson, wife, from prudent
neighbor Jones'
And not-for what we haven't got-giye vent
TO sighs and groanS?
The rich amt always happy, nor free from
life'S alarms,
But blest are they that live content, though
small may be their farms

IMPURITIES IN DRINKING WATER.
How They Are Collected From the At
mOSnhere.


mosphere.
All natural waters contain mineral
salts, some of which may be deleterious
to health, but the most injurious foreign
substances found in ordinary drinking
water are decaying organic matter and
sometimes infectious micro-organisms
All water that is used for domestic pur-
poses has been, at some period atmos-
pheric vapor and, as it fell in rains. car
ried with 1t the impurities from the air.
These impurities are gases that arise
from combustion, fermentation and de-
cay, and particles of dust and decompos-
ing organic matter. Bacteria are also re-
moved from the air in great numbers,
nearly all of which are in the stage of
spores instead of adults. The spores of
fungi and other microscopic plants and
the pollen of flowers and grasses are also
found in rain water. So numerous are
these impurities in the air that liter of
water which falls at the beginning of a
storm often contains more than 100000
micro-organisms. Half q pint of water
frequently condenses out of three or four
thousand cubic feet of air, and in its con-
densation removes nearly all of the at
moSpheric impurities, concentrating
them in the water. So in drinking a
glass of rain water that falls at the begin
ming of a storm we may swallow as much
filth as we breathe from the air in more
than week.
If rain water is stored in cisterns with
out publication these substances soon
render it so foul that it cannot be used for
drinking. But when rain is collected
near the end of storms, and is properly
filtered and aerated, it is one of our most
wholesome natural water supplies. As
rain falls upon the earth it washes away
the accumulations of debris from the sur
face of the ground, and as it passes into
the soil extracts from it a large amount of
ing vegetation and animal excrement.
These substances are carried down into
the circulating currents, and it is not in
frequent that the drainage from cesspools
and privies also finds a direct entrance
into surface wells.-Dr. Floyd Davis, in
The Engineering Magazine.

LET'S MAKE UP, LOVE-!

Let's make up, love-what's the use
Always to be pouting?
Let's make up, love, for abuse
Comes of constant fiouting.
Though a sunny April shower
Wakesveach tender blossom.
Frequent teardrops lose their power
Ger the human bosom.
Let's make up, love; and forget
All the old-time sorrow;
Let's make up, love, joyance yet
Lingers for tomorrow.
Smiles alone should deck-thy brow,
Grief lines leave thei rtraces;
Father Time forgets to plow
Over smiling faces.
Let's make up, love; constant grief
Fills the heart with malice;
Let's make up, love, Times thief
Draining lies full chalice:
Pluck the anger from thy brow
From thy heart its sorrow-
All we have of lie is now,
Death may come tomorrow!
Let's make up, love; what's the use
Ever to be pouting?
Let's make up, love, for abuse
Follows constant fiouting;
Smiles alone should grace thy brow.
Grief lines leave their traces
Father Time will lightly plow
Over pleasant faces. T. s. {

THE THREE AGES.

From the French of Marie Constantin.l I
My dears, when was young like you
o, days that long ago took wing!-
/ had your wit, your sweetness too,
And loved, like you, the spring.
Fondly do remember still
How dear to me were field and flowers.
How dust the hearts in lighter hours
Made captive III the gay quadrille;
A merry child, like vou my dears,
And such was l at 5 years.
Later, my heart, less wild and gay,
To one devout espousal moved;
And welded Joys, how sweet are they,
To love and to be lovedi
But sometimes pensive and apart,
prayed in secret sighs to heaven.
That some dear angel might be given
To stir in me n mothers heart;
Wife and iond mother too my dears.
And such was l at 30 years.
o lateri Onward still and on
Time flies, like an advancing wave
And summer, autumn, both are gone,
With all the joys they gave!
Yet, while we droop with age and pain,
The heart that to our babes we give
In their sweet innocence may live
And with their babes be young again;
And such am at length, my dears,
With my full span of so years.

EUROPEAN SENSATIONS,
THE SCANDALS IN FRANCE AND
SPAIN CAUSE A STIR.

The Brussels Silver Conference the
only Continental Matter In Which
England Has Been Involved-Henry
Labouchere's Retirement from the
Daily News the Most Interesting q
Event of the Week In London.
LONDON, Dec. 3.-This has been a week
Of such excitement as Europe has not expe-
rienced before since the days immediately y
preceding the Franoo-Prussian war.
France, as usual, has had liberal share Of
sensation. Nobody believes that the story
of the Panama canal steal has been half
told. As regards the corruption of dep
uties, half has not been told, and though a
few have been Implicated 30 far there Is no
doubt that the guilty will reach fifty; some
say a hundred.
Spain is but little behind France in the
dimensions of her public scandal. Alcalde
Bosch. the ward Of the tottering ministry
and his municipal colleagues appear to
have taken everything they could lay their,
hands on. The newspapers have raised
such noise about the scandal that their
reporters are now excluded from the council
meetings. The people have already rioted
in the streets, to show their hatred Of the
present government, and unless the Cas-
tillo cabinet retire, there will be more seri-
Gus trouble.
ENGLAND's SENSATION.
The only continental matter In
which England figures has been the
Brussels silver conference. and, as
in England this gathering ia
regarded as predestined to failure, interest
in it has been mostly academic.
The retirement Of Henry Labouchere
from the Daily Neigs was probably the most
significant event OF the week in
London. 1t suggests that before long
England may add another TO the
list Of recent cabinet crises. Mr..
Labouchers is rich and this precludes the
idea that he disposed of his Daily Netos
shares for money. His move Is interpreted
rather as his first step toward shaking him
self loose from the Glads tonians, whose
organ the Daily NetVs is acknowledged TO be.

Two Men of spalding County In Row

GRIFFIN, GA, Dec. 3.-The balloon ascen-
sion Of Blue Mountain Joe attracted a large
crowd to the city to-day. and in the crowd
were two men who were deadly enemies.
They were Charles B. Bostick and Tom
Andrews, both Of this county. They did
not meet until tonight about Z O'Clock,
when Bostick walked into the Arcade bar
where Andrews was. Neither spoke, but
both went in for fight, which resulted
in a pretty severe cut for Bostick
under his eye The cash is about
two inches in length and goes TO the bone.
Parties in the bar separated the combat
ants before further damage was done. Both
men were arrested and placed under bond.
The difficulty is the outcome OF an old feud
over some delicate family trouble. This
makes the second engagement between
them, Bostick getting the worst Of IL IN
both instances. 1t is feared the trouble is
not over. as both are determined men with
out knowledge Of the meaning Of fear.
