THE FUN THAT ADAM MISSED.

That Adam was soneIy man
Pm ready TO believe,
Although his many days were blest
With natures fairest Eve;
BY maiden auuts and cousins fair
The man was never kissed,
And thus | often think about
The fun that Adam missed.
1t seems to me his life was like
An oft-repeated dream;
He never treated girls and paid
Three dollars for Ice cream;
He never when little boy.
BY grown up girls were kissed;
And when he died he ne yer knew
The run that he had missed.
He never went security
And had the note to pay;
He never saw his banks cashier
Steal gracefully away;
In all his life e never by
A motber-in-law was kissed;
But why 20 on and 'numerate
Tire iun that Adam missed?
Perhaps. If he was living now
But, then. why speculate? ..
He'd be too old and not inclined
To play with tickle fate.
For centuries the wanton winds
His unknown grave have kissed;
Pt rhaps he sleeps the better for
The fun that he had missed.

a Mutual Benefit to All.

An exchange wisely makes the fol-
lowing obrervations on the growth and
size of the town and If their are among
our readers any who feel spite at the
towns let them read carefully and
think the matter twice over, at least,
before they grumble about the towns
any more:
Farmers, and others, living near the
villages and towns are often heard say
ing this: 1t is nothing to me wheth-
er the town builds up or not, l don t
own a loot of real estate there, and
never expect to do So" Such some
times 90 even farther and denounce
their local paper for giving so much
of its space to "whooping up" the
aforesaid village or town.
If all such wonld give this matter a
fair hearing and then pronounce upon
it perhaps their judgment might be re-
verseG
1t is an admitted fact that town
which has one hundred people In 1t at
tracts the notice of the outside world
far less than one which has a thous-
and the latter with It's general popula-
ton causes an enhanced yoluation O.
all lands situated near by it has more
consumers to puy trult, poultry, vege-
tables, butter, etc, and thereby keeps
trade going on, where without such
consumers there would be no trade eX-
cept such as is made by the selling O
annual crops Land worth SlO al
acre near a village of fifty inhabitants
would be worth 800 if the numbe
we're increased to thousand and II
city were built the price of such lane
situated near by would sell at hlghe
rates. These being facts which adml
of no lust denial, our farmers shoult
encourage their local papers instead o
denouncing them when they are work
ing for immigration. Give the edlto
help and receive part OF the bench
yourselves.

THE CLOVER.

Some sing of the lily and daisy and
rose,
And the pansies and pinks that the
summer time throws
In the green, grassy hay OF the meadow
that lays,
Blinkin' up at the skies through the
sunshiny days;
But what is the lily and all OF the rest
OF the flowers to man with heart i'll
his breast,
That has slipped, brimmin' full Of the
honey and dew,
Of the sweet clover blossoms his boy
hood knew?
/ never sit heavy on clover field now,
Or fool round a stable or climb in a
NOV,
But my childhood comes back, just as
clear and as plain
AS the smell of the clover I'm snltfin
again;
And l wander away in barefooted
dream,
Where I tangle mytoes in the blossoms
that CLEAN
With the dew OF the dawn OF the morn
ing of love,
Ere I wept DER the graves that I'm
weeping above
And so I love clover. 1t seems like d
part
Of the sacredest sorrows and joys of my
heart
And whenever it blossoms, oh then lei
| me bow,
And thank the good Lord as I'm thank.
in Him now,
And pray to Him still for the strength
when | die,
To 90 out in the clover and tell it good
bye,
And lovingly nestle my face in it,
bloom,
While my soul slips away on a breatl
of perfume.
