Men are but boys Of older growth,
Women are girls forever;
The tie that binds us to our youth
Not all Of life can sever.
We all recall those Christmas times
When we believed that fable
About dear Santa and the deer
He drives DER cave and gable:
How, bright and early Christmas morn.
We hurried to our stocking,
And how the gifts brought shouts Of Joy,
The family to us focking.
How father smiled at mother when
He looked at the snow outside
And said: "Just see the deer tracks there
Where old Santa Claus did ride"
And don't we all remember we'll
Our visit to HAHNE & CO.,
The fairy scenes enacted there
In the flush Of Christmas glow7
Just like ourselves their store has grown.
But far outstrips our vigor,
And. as the years go amblng by,
Gets bigger and still bigger.
'Tis there we find the greatest choice
or presents for young and old.
And all the goods you see displayed
At the lowest prices sold.
So let us make the children glad.
And throw open wide the door.

A Tour to Balmy Florida via Penn
Sylvania Railroad.

When the North is at it's worst
Florida is at it's best. When lakes
and rivers are icebound here and a
drifting snow fills our streets the
violets are blooming there and the
air is laden with the sweet perfume
of budding Spring. When Old
Boreas howls around our northern
homes and the frost king rules, the
hooking bird is singing in Florida's
graceful palms and the whole land
is melodious with happy song.
The elegant special trains of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Jacksonville
tours are fitting introduotions to
this delightful land. The next tour,
allowing two weeks in Florida,
leaves New York aud Philadelphia
under personal escort February %.
Round trip tickets, including Pull
man accommodations and meals on
the special train, will be sold at the
following rates: From New York,
$50, 90; Philadelphia, $500; Can
andaigua, $52.S5; Erie, $54.S5;
Pittsburg, $500, and at proper
Tomato rates from other points.

Farmers Institute.

The first Farmers Institute fo1
Cecil county convened at Odd
Fellows Hall, Elkton, Wednesday
morning. Director William L.
Amoss occupied the chair, and
opened the Institute, and was fol-
lowed by A. r. Eastman, of Water
vile, N. Y, who gave an interest
ing talk on oslo and Ensilage."
Mr.. Jas. e. Rice told all about
poultry and egg producing, how to
get eggs in the months of Septem-
Der, October, November and Deem
Der when eggs are the highest price,
how to hatch and feed the young
chicks, how to build chicken houses,
and inshort all about the business.
He said Maryland's climate was
the home of the hen and corn.
Raising fowls for market does not
pay but eggs are the paying crop.
One of the speakers talked on
sheep and gave a very instructive
lecture on the SUBJECT. He told how
to select and the class Of sheep to
raise. Sheep raising could not be
easily made a success without CO.
operation. Five adjoining farms
should go into the business.

East Hartford Farmers.

Articles of incorporation have
been filed in the Circuit Court at
Bel Air for the formation of the
East Hartford Agricultural Associa-
ton. The objects of the association
are to increase and vary the agri-
cultural and horticultural produc-
tions of the county, to improve the
live stock and to multiply the
articles of household economy and
adornment.
The capital stock is $4,000 and
Havre de Grace is to be head
quarters of the association. The
purposes set forth are very laudable,
but we will not be surprised if the
race course smoke is not concealed
in the scheme. When driven out
of Cecil they want a door open to
get into Hartford.

1t is pretty well established by
statistics of increase of population,
the vote of the years Immediately
preceding the election of 1896,
that Mckinley did not carry Ohio,
Indiana, Kentucky and California.
This fraud is so well covered up
that it cannot be reached by judicial
process, but on the minds of true
American people it cannot fail to
have strong moral influence. The
electoral vote would have stood
with these states taken from the
Mckinley column and added to the
Bryan column; for Bryan 235; for
Mckinley 212. This fact should
be kept before the people and i'm
pressed upon them, and when the
excitement of the election has sub
sided and reason assumed her judge
ment seat, they cannot fail to have
profound influence on the public
mind.
The disastrous results which are
follOwinga and must continue to follow
the fraudulent methods used to seat
Mckinley in the presidential chair,
will strengthen and more deeply
impress the wisdom of the old
adage. "What comes over the
DEVILS back will 60 under his
belly"

VIM. P. st. John, ex-president
Of the Merchantile National Bank
of New York City, and treasurer
of the Democratic National Com.
mittee, died suddenly at his home
in New York Sunday night. The
cause of his death was kidney
trouble, from which he had long
been a sufferer.
Mr.. st. John was forced to re-
sign the presidency of the bank on
account of his silver sentiments.
His speeches in favor of the re-
monetization of silver and on the
silver question were so learned,
able and exhaustive, which he
delivered before the bankers meet
ing that none of the goldbug
bankers dared to attempt q reply.
Their only effort was to use main
strength and force him out of the
office he so ably filled.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way 10 cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever, nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inhamed condition of the mucous sur

Robert Porter, a conductor on
the P. W. & B. r. r. met with a
painful accident at Perryville Tues
day evening. At Havre de Grace

a broad-axe, and, at Perryville,

and inflicting a dangerous wound,
from which blood flowed profusely.
