You Cannot ALWAYS Tell.

"How deceitful appearances are some
times" says well known Maine physi-
clan, commenting on little experience
of his. I'VE see men with fine, large, we'll
painted buildings on their farms and are
apt to think they are men with plenty of
means, who will pay cash down for what
they get, but often we are mistaken in this
notion, for in too many instances the big
buildings represent an investment of Dor
rowed money that is like a milestone
round the farmers neck. But what l was
going to tell you was not of this nature
in fact, just the opposite. A year or so
ago l was sent for to visit patient some
80 miles away, and when got there the
premises were so run down and rickety
that my son, who was with me, said when
we drove into his yard: Well, father,
guess we've got our trouble for our pains
today. No fee this time, if 1 am any
judge Everything around the place was
so scant and shabby would not have Civ
en- much for my chances of pay My visit
over, was about to put on my overcoat
to depart when the man said: Hold on,
doctor. haven't paid you yet. What's
the bill" was surprised at his honest
manner and named the amount, when he
ran his hand into pocket of his ragged
trousers and pulled out roll of bills that
made my eyes stick out. He certainly held
enough cash right there in his fist to buy
one of the best farms in town. Lewis
