BORN ACROSS THE SEA.
massachusetts Elect Not

Hon. Frederic Il. Grccnhalge. gov
ernor-elect of the commonwealth of
Massachusetts. was born in 1872, at
Clithcroc. n small manufacturing town
in Lancashire, Eng. about thirty miles
north Of Manchester. His father, a
skilled workman, although burdened
with the support of n family of seven
children. had the intelligence and fore.
sight to realize the advantage of Civ
ing to these young members OF his
family a training and education calcu-
lated to improve their condition in
life. Partly on this account and part
ly because of the be,tcr prospects of
employment, the elder Mr.. Grecnhalge,
when the subject of this slse tch was in
his teens, left England for the United
States, where he found employment
and took up his residence in the city of
Lowell. The new governor of Massa-
chusetts passed his early life under
conditions similar TO those of most
New England boys of good mental at
tainments but OF limited means. He
passed through the grammar school
of Lowell, graduated with honor from
its higl, school, and in 1859 entered
Harvard college. Three years later
the death of his father forced him to
abandon his studies ut Cambridge
and find means of earning his
living. He taught school for
awhile, served an apprenticeship
in counting-room, and for some
six months was connected with the
commissary department OF the United
States army in the military depart
mcut of North Carolina. During the
period between Is6a, when he left col
lcgc. ard 1865, when he was admitted
to the Middlescx bar. such leisure time
as he had ut his disposal was occupied

In one account Of Rome the author
mentions five or six slabs of plastic
marble rs being in the possession of
Prince Borghesc. Being set on end,
they bend backward and forward;
when laid horizontally and raised Mt
one end they form n curve; II placed
on table and piece Of wood or
nny other substance is laid under them
they fall into kind of curve, each
end touching the table. Abbe Forts
was told that they were dug up
near tho town OF Mondragon, In the
kingdom of Naples. The grain is like
that Of fine Carrnrn marble, or perhaps
Of tho finest Greek. They seem to
have suffered some attack of fire. A
slab of marble similar in every respect
to those described, and highly pol
ished. has been exhibited for more
than twenty-five years ut the British
museum. NJ. Flcuvian dc Bclvac sue

PTesent Day Literary limitations Of Musical
Compositions Common Years Ago.
! Some twenty-five years ago there was
q style of musical composition much in
vogue known as variations" says q
writer in the Atlantic Monthly. 1t ap-
peared in dozen page sheets entitled
"Homc Sweet liomc-with variations"
Coming Through the Rye with varia-
tions;" Let Me Kiss Him for His
Mother (also with variations). The
distinctive plan OF these compositions
and. whatever their individual char
nctcristic, they were, ns a whole, with
out variation-consistcd, first, in n
brace or two of banging prelude, close
ly followed by 4 simple little air that
somebody else had written. This
definitely announced the theme to be
.'variatcd," which was next heard be-
hind thin screen of artfully arranged
hrpeggios. Then it donned a deep dis
guise in the bass, to become barely
recognizable in the reble with trills,
ditto in bass, in the treble with runs,
ditto in bass. and finally lost itself in n
company of crashing chords SO over
powcring that one could not be certain
whether the original air had beef
Coming Through the Rye" or Let
Me Kiss Him for His Mother"
A similar sort of treatment has now
invaded the art of letters; that is TO
say, il has affected the entire twenty
six, AS well us the select seven to be
found upon the piano keyboard. 1t

say, merely: "One summer morning,

One day m important official OF

coming of the king. lie leaned back in
his chair, and rested his head against
the tapestry on the wall. A page
slipped up behind him and with n great
pin fastened the officials wig TO the

Here is the ldng!"
Up jumped the official, leaving the
wig hanging 10 the tapestry. and con-
fronting the king with bare head. lie
was not Mt all disconccrtcd. and said
gravcly: Il did not expect TO have the

the whole ncighborhood. declaring that
he had 4 message from the king. The
official got out OF bed and put on some
of his court garb In order to receive
the kings messenger properly.
At last the page was tremendously
admitted to his presence. Then the
boy said: 'Sir, I am here at the

your pardon for pinning your wig to

''Sir," replied the official, calmly,
''yon need not have made such haste"
Then the page retired with Us much

since the creamery was started The
comment was most significant. 1t eX-

communities which support successful

Farmers, read this from the Breeders
Gazette, and do not stop by reading
it once, but read it over second time !;
then cut it out and paste it into your
pocket book and read it once a week for
a wear. Note particularly what is said
about a steady supply of milk. To guar
antee that YOU must have as many co VS.

A pound Of butter in October is usually
worth one and one-hdlf pound i'll July

gin now to study this question. Make
calculation in putting in from four to ten

The time was when it paid to keep horses
to work in the woods and elsewhere, but
that time has gone by. Cows and hens
and hogs are what pay today. Keep up
with the procession il you don't want to
be left. Another thing that farmers
should do this coming spring is to keep
all their heifer calves. We met a mau
from Franklin county few days since
who said il you were to go through that
county and pick one hundred cows and
one hundred horses taking them as they
came, and sell them at auction, the cows
would bring the most, but COWS are not
that high here. s. d. & Z. f. Hobson
have recently bought over thirty for
about S22 each. Farmers in this town
should buy cows rather than sell at that
price especially when hay is only 5000
per ton.
