Uncle Billy's Way.

When you're tired Or in trouble or respondent
or in doubt
And the world seems all agn' ye, and dark
Just take n quiet snoko-as Uncle Billy used
tosay-
And you'll see the sun of peace again shinin'
bright rs day
In a coy kitchen corner by the fireplace was
his chair,
And after chores at evening you could alius
Resting comftable an easy, in his shirtsleeves
an his slips,
His honest face n beamlnR, and his pipe
a tween his lips.
All many times I've set an watched him puff
the pearly clouds
In the flicker OF the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
they'd look like shrouds-
Then again they'd stream an glisten, weaving
cris-cross round the room,
Like lot o. silver NANTES from some fairy
sort Of loom.
You could see sech curious pictures-summor
skies or foamin' seas
With spirit ships asailing-groveS OF creamy
blossomed trees
An palaces an castles. with their banners all
a-stream,
An everything, aAoating, mingling, changing
like n dl eamj
There was sermons in his smoking like par
son ever preached,
And a quality Of happiness that riches never
reached;
Somehow, to only watch him, would make
everything look light,
Just as good as though the best Of friends had
told you what was right.
He allus said that bad uns wouldn't do the
things they do
If they'd only stop beforehand an just
take II Whit or two;
And as for gloom or worry, he allowed their
spell was broke,
If we'd only treat: our troubles as we do the
pipe we smoke.
So when I'm tired or troubled or despondcnt or
in doubt
An the world seems all agin' me and dark
clouds are about
! think of Uncle Billy's way to drive away my
care
A quiet smoke-and 10 sweet peace is smiling
everywhere.

A SON TRIES TO PUT HIS AGED
PARENTS OUT OF THE WAY.
Kept Up Systematic Course of Arsenic
Poisoning for Several Weeks-1he
Father Dies in Groat Agony and the
Mother in a Critical Condition.

AVER, Mass, March 1.-THE town Is
thoroughly stirred up over startling ru-
NOR, which appears to be borne out by
strong circumstantial evidence that Charles
Wilson, sou OF William Wilson, has been
systematically poisoning his parents with
arsenic in order to get possession OF proper
ty valued at less than 5000.
The parents are old people about 70 years
of age, who have been i'll some time. Charles
lived with them for several weeks, during
which time the mother noticed that he
never ate Of the same food he gave them.
Thursday night the son came to the bad
side of his mother with cup of chicken
broth, insisting upon her drinking it. The
mother noticed peculiar substance floating
on the liquid and questioned her son, who
gave an evasive answer. She refused abso-
lutely to drink it, whereupon the son car
ried the broth to the kitchen and left the
house.
Later the father saw the broth and drank
it all. He went to bed, but awoke IN
short time in great agony. His body was
swollen and he was in terrible pain. DR..
Hartwell, who was summoned pronounced
it a case of arsencal poisoning. The father
died o-night. The mother Is very i'll from
what she supposes to be poison that she had
taken from time to time for weeks past.
Charles Wilson has disappeared
