wei us. @<d7bAve reminded them of
the circu0 3o1Us of Il emigration
and settIedienthsfe. We have appealed
to their native justice and magnanimity,
and we have cOnjured them, by the ties
of our common kindred, to disavOw
these us%urpations, which would inevita-
bly, interrupt connections and cor
respondence. They, too, have been
deaf to the voice of justice and con-
sanguinity. We must, therefore, ac-
quiesce in the necessity which denOunces
our separation, and hold them, as We
hold the rest of mankind, enemies in
war. in peace, friends.
We, therefore, the representatives of
the United States of America, in general
congress assembled, appealing to the
Supreme Judge of the world for the
rectitude of our intentions, do, in the
name and by the authority of the good
people of these colonies, sOlemnly pub
lish and declare, that. these United
Colonies are, n of right ought to he,
free and independent states; that they
are absOlved from all allegiance to
the British crown, and that all political
connection between them and the State
of Great Britain is, and ought to be,
totally dissolved; and that, as free and
independent states, they have full power
to levy war, conclude peace, contract
alliances, establish commerce, and do
all other acts and things which indie
pendent states may of right do. And,
for the support Of this declaration, with
q firm reliance on the protection of
divine providence, we mutually pledge
to each other our lives. our fortunes,
and our sacred honor.

Coughing Leads to Consumption.
Kemp's Balsam will stop the cough at ono

Abraham Lincoln was born Feb. II,
1909. The birthday of Abraham Lin
coin may well recall the principles
which he represented, for which he
labored and for which he endured q
martyrs death. There is no more
popular figure in American history
than that of Abraham Lincoln. He
was pre- -eminently man of the peo-
pie. Sprung from the people, he al
ways remained one of them. Men ad-
mired George Washington, but it was
an admiration mingled with awe. The
people both loved and revered Lin
coin. President or rail splitter, he was
the same plain American citizen, in
whom honesty was an instinct, and
whose patriotism was part of his very
soul.

and bitter as the old man was toward
his enemies, he had refrained from
speaking harshly to Mile until to-
day. How could he live without her?
Vino could fill her place by his side
when those terrible cramps returned,
when every movement of his body
incurred excruciating pain?
All, Uncle Zeke forgot in his wrath
| all his debt of gratitude, and although
she had spoken in pleading tones, he
turned on her fiercely: eyes, leave
both of We, and never darken these
doors ag'in."
They looked at each other helpless
ly for moment and then at the old
man, but their delay only angered
him the more.
''Don't We hear?" he cried eff We
don't leave, I'll strike ye."
Mile turned and left the room.
Mr.. Grifis passed out into the open
air, down the lane and tarried at the
roadside. A few moments later Mil
lie came hurrying toward him, her
face pale as death.
s'Come quick!'' she cried, breath
lessly, and see uncle; something has
happened to him. He ran back to
the house and found the old man ly-
ing upon the floor.
Uncle Zeke had been stricken with
paralysis, although he lived some
weeks, there was no hopes of recov-
cry. Miles gentle face was always
at the bedside of the sufferer, and
just before he died there was mo-
mentary relaxation Of the disease, and
he was just able to whisper as she
leaned low over his couch: "Forgive
me!o
81 do; do" she cried, the tears
raining down her cheeks, and with a
lingering look of gratitude upon his
face he passed away.
There was no will, and the proper
ty, despite the old mans intentions,
reverted to the next of kin. Adolph,
however, settled it all on Miller, but
as Mile became his wife it amounted
to the same thing in the end. They
lived happily ever after, and the mer-
chant never regretted the day on
which he left his desk to follow the
leading strings of fate.

Did you ever think that the same
syllable is often used in great many
words? If not, suppose you learn it
by playing the following game: Write
several words on long slip of paper,
leaving the space of half an inch be-
tween the syllables of each word.
Then cut out the syllables, assert them
and let each player draw three sylla-
bles at random. From these three, or
from any two of them, he must try to
construct word. If unable to do SO
he must return two to the pack, and
wait until his turn comes again, when
he may draw three more slips and try
again.

The Miller's Dream.

The viewless rider came over the hill,
And refined his steed at the door of the mill,
And called in voice that was loud and shrlll-
..From the famished city there comes a cry,
"Give us bread, give us bread, or else we die!
aArise. o good miller, and make reply!
II have freed the springs on the fields green
floor;
The streams with their silver are at your door,
And over the gates the glad waters pour
eThere is plenty of golden corn and grain
All harvested now from the spreading plain
Shall the prayers of the poor go up in vain?
The miller awoke from his dream and heard
The wind in the trees, and his soul was stirred
BY the viewl- SIS riders mysterious word!
Like night grew the west, and the thunder's
boom
gloom
And the waters roared in the narrow Hume.
And then did he granite wheels begin
owhirl, and the miller the grain poured in,
and gathered it's powdered gold in the bin!
All day and all night with a merry sound
The wheels on their GRAND went round and
round,
Till IL of the corn and grain were ground!
The off to the famished city-away!
A thousand bushels of flour to stay
Th wolf from the doors of the poor day
Lo, over the city, cloud in the west;
The rain fell IN pity, and the unseen guest
Halted his steed at the end of the quest
THANK God for the rain!" the old miller said,
But he heard all night, as he dreamed in his
bed,
The poor of the city thank God for bread.

All kinds of animals do wonderful
things without ever being taught.
Each in it's own line inherits an edu-
cation, an education which, in COM
mon language, goes by the name of
instinct.
A college professor of Maine tells
through the Lewiston Journal how he
convinced a friend who did not be-
lieve that beavers could build dams.
He bought a baby beaver of hunter,
and sent it to his sceptical friend. 1t
became great pet in the house, but
showed no signs of wanting to build a
dam, until one Monday morning a
leaky pail full of water was put on
the floor of the back kitchen. The
beaver was there. He was only a
baby, to be sure; but, the moment he
saw the water oozing out of crack
in the pail, he scampered into the yard,
brought in chip, and began building
his dam.
His owner was called, and watched
the little fellow, very much astonish-
ed by what he saw. He gave orders
to have the pail left where it was; and
the industrious beaver kept at his
work four weeks, when he had built a
solid dam around the pail.

1t is reported that Prof. Weinek,
Director of the observatory of Prag-
ue, who makes speciality of study
ing the moon, and is supposed to
know as much about that SATELLITE as
any living man, has been examining
some photographs of the moon made
by means of the great Lick Telescope
of California, and says that one OF
them shows a crater which is not to
be found on any hitherto published
map of the moon. This crater is esti-
mated to be about quarter of mile
in diameter, and it is thought to be
unlikely that the distinguished steno-
grapher, Schmidt, would have over
looked it if it were there when he made
his map. Yet it seems unlikely that
it could have formed since, as it is
generally conceded that all activity
died out in the moon many thousands
of ages ago.

An amusing incident is reported by
the Vienna correspondent of the Lon
don Daily NeaUs to have taken place
recently at M1skolcz, in Hungary. A
young girl pretended to see the Holy
Virgin daily and to have converse
ton with her. Her mother encour-
aged the pious, who brought presents
to her; and, when the priests inter-
fered, the excited crowd threatened
to tilt treat them. Some days ago the
would-be saint lay in a coffin in a
shroud, and her mother told every
body that the Virgin had told her to
die, and she would resuscitate her on
the third day. There was terrible ex-
element in the place, and thousands
seemed prepared to wait the pre-
scribed three days in prayer and fast
ing. The local authorities came with
a doctor to put stop to the scandal
Gus affair, and in the presence of the
pious crowd the doctor said: "It is
very serious that she died SO sudden
ly. We must have post norton ex-
animation" Immediately the young
saint sat up in the coffin, crying: ooh,
don't cut,me up! can be resuscitated
Immediately" She was taken to
prison hospital to be examined as to
her sanity

The world is filled with weak, suffering men

not. Read the following letter from Mr.. Jo-

Said the wise man, ga soft answer

believed in this precept said to her
four year old Nellie, who was quick
tempered, eff one of your playmates

The child went out on the lawn, where
a neighbours boy was mending kite.
She accidently broke the kite still
more, whereby the boy was made an

eyes flashed, and she was about to re-
ply with very unkind remark when,
suddenly recalling her mothers adj
vice about soft answer, she looked
the boy right in the eye, and said
meekly and slowly, "Mush."

Every man feels instinctively that
all the beautiful sentiments in the
world weigh less than one single love-
ly action, and that while tenderness
of feeling and susceptibility of gener-
Gus emotions are accidents of life,
permanent goodness is an achieve
ment and a quality of life. "Fine
words" says one homely old proverb,
"butter no parsnips," and if the ques-
ton be how to render these vegeta-
bles more palatable, an ounce of but
ter would be worth more than all the
orations of Cicero. The only conclu-
sive evidence of mans sincerity is
that he gives himself for principle.
Words, money, all things else, are
comparatively easy to give away, but
when man makes gift of his daily
life and practice it is plain that the
truth, whatever it may be, has taken
possession of him.
