The Sad Fate of a Man Who SANG
"After the BALL."
"Ho, MARCEL" cried old Whiskerus,
show stack'st thou up to-day?" The
twain had met one summer morn back
in an alleyway. Stern Marco drew his
toga close and cast aside his Tyre. "I'm
out of whack today" he said; with
rage am afrel Oh, may the children
on the street play football with my
head If l don't lick old Screechius be-
fore go to bed!" "What wrong is
charged of Screechius?" old Whiskerus
said then: "Methought he was q Roman
bold-a man among the men!" "And so
did I, till yesternight." quoth Marco,
with a sigh; "but have changed my
mind somewhat swear he'll have to
die. Oh, Whiskerus! he babe me come
unto his house last eve, to have quiet
chat and smoke-the tale did believe.
l went, oh, friend, and doubted naught
II did not think that he would seek to
make driveling young idiot of me!
went; he piled me with cigars; /
swear they were but hay-he locked
the door and took his harp, and then
began to play, and then to sing-the
agony felt I'll ne'er forget. Methinks
hear that brutal song ring in my poor
ears yet. Twas that old song which has
been used to torture men to death /;
and Screechius gave it to me, nor stopt
to get his breath. Down in corner OF
the room l sank, near dead with fright;
but Whiskerus, he kept right on and
sang with all his might! My tongue
was paralyzed with fear; forhelp could
not call; and there / lay, while Screech-
ius sang after the Ball!' He Knocked
my agony, did he; his fat sides shook
with mirth-But, no, he comes! now he
or shall be wiped from the earth!S'
. They came together, these two men,
and Marco made swipe as if he meant
the dusty street with Screechius to
wipe. He strolled in glee upon his
neck, he tore his hair and hide, until his
foe, in misery, for mercy loudly cried.
But Marco tied up Screechius into a
double knot; and now the Roman chill
dren meet and view the fatal spot. They
say of Screechius: Here he died-a
like fate will befall all those who in
sist that men must list unto After the
Dall!'"-IIarlem Life.

MARKETING BUTTER.
Rest Time to Sell Is as Soon as the
Product In Ready.

Product Is Ready.
The question often arises with dairy
farmers who make and market their
own butter, shall l sell or hold for high
er prices? Butter depreciates from the
moment it is made till it is consumed,
under ordinary farm conditions; and is
always liable to fluctuations in price,
which are as often against the holder
as in his favor, and he is always losing
the interest on its value as long as he
holds it. Holding for a higher price
is one form of speculation-a business
farmers have no occasion to indulge in
1t is true rise in property may some
times be foreseen, making it pretty safe
to hold for time, but when a dairyman
would not think it wise or safe to buy
butter or cheese to hold for a better
price, he had better not hold his own.
The fact that il turns out that he might
have done better by holding than by
selling, when his goods are first ready
for market, is not a sufficient reason
for his holding at another time, for the
chances will as often be against him,
and whichever way it is, he must al
ways endure the losses from injury,
shrinkage, depreciation, waste and use
of capital. Therefore, as rule, we say
it is most prudent to sell always when
products are ready for market, and most
especially so with butter, which is al
ways suffering from depreciation in
quality.-Rural World.

VIII Power in Disease.

There is nothing so important in all
nervous diseases as the exercise of the
will-power. 1t is common habit Of
nervous people to think that they can
not avoid yielding to the various mani
festations of their disease. This is true
to a limited degree, but all such mani
festations can be greatly modified by a
resolute turning to some other sub
ject. not waiting for some one else to
work the version.-Demorest's.
