Overreached Himself.

An old farmer in Waldo county had
choice lot of cows, and a neighbor,
seeing the herd in the pasture, asked
for how much he could have his pick of
one. TWENTY-FIVE dollars" said the
owner. "All right, I'll be around to-
morrow and select one." The next day
the owner of the cows told his hired
man to drive the only poor COW in the
lot to the barn. Soon the buyer put in
an appearance to buy cow. He
missed one, however. and was sus-
picious How is this? You said l
could have my pick of the lot. Where
is that other cow?" ooh! that COW you
don't want" said the owner 'She is
old and no good, so placed her in the
barn. You don't want her." But the
buyer insisted on having that COW. He
suspected she was the best one of the
lot. "All right, them said the seller
Drive that COW out, John" The COW
was driven out and the buyer would
not look at the rest, but purchased her
at once and drove her home. A day or
two afterward he came back ana ac-
cused the seller of cheating him, and
wanted him to take the COW back. But
the old fellow refused, saying that the
buyer had had his pick.-Lewiston

MOTHERS SONG.

You wouldn't a-called 1t music, for the voice
was kind o weak,
An, when it tried the higher notes, it ended In
squeak;
But I'VE never heered it's equal, an I'll always
try 10 cling
80 the echo of the dear old song that mother
uster sing
wisht could feel contented, like did when
evenin' crept,
When the light e'&ay had vanished, and the
earth in silence slept;
Feel that peaceful thrillin' the song was sure
to briss,
The song o purest sweetness that mother ustes
: Stsg.
An, sometimes when I'm dreamin', her angel
comes to me,
To tell NE bout the beauties o. my home that
is to be;
! An through the gates O. heaven can hear the
music ring,
AsJ hold my breath an listen TO the song she
uster sing.
