The Ballad OF Berry Brown.

Oh, do you know country lad by name of
Berry Brown,
Who rides upon load OF wood along the
streets of town?
He has hat turned up IN front and crumped
down behind,
His curly hair so long and fair is tumbed
by the wind,
And through his coat his elbows peep, and
through his boots his toes;
But every where and anywhere he whistles as
he goes.
There's something strangely taking in the
eyes of Berry Brown
They seem TIC flash CHEEKY light along the
streets OF town;
Despite his coarse and battered vest, his
boots and hat forloru,
His trousers patched, threadbare, and sag
gea, his shirt 50 old and worn,
For every glimpse he gives he takes mea-
sure Of surprise,
And every body wonders where the secret of
And so his way of sitting there, SO steadfast,
calm, aud strong;
His air. as if his whstlng bore wagon and
WOOD along;
HIS independence and Sel-trust, the firm
set throat and chm,
Tie working of his muscles when he reins
ms horses in
Take hold of one and fascnate, as hints and
gllmpses can,
When all the glory OF boy is merging into
man.
Oh, Berry Brown looks careless, but lie
holds his secret well;
For hidden in the clouds are heights where
ON his visions dwell,
Within him somew here swells a Vein OF
ancient htro-vlm,
And who shall hold HIM back one step, or
set the pace for him?

What Did Shakespeare Mean?

Shakespeare never wrote truer words than
Life of our pleasant vices doth make whips
to scourge u.s." This can only mean that
to our misuse of the pleasures of life we owe
most Of the ills of poor health. Doubly do
the words apply to men who, through ignor-
ance, folly and indiscretion, have used up
their strength, energy and vitality, and left
themselves almost wrecks of manhood
Their condition would indeed be pitiable
were it not for the fact that a scientific
physician, a specialist in the cure of this
class of diseases of men, has come to their re-
lief and made it easily possible for weak and
vgorless men to regain their lost vitality
and vigor. We refer to DR.. Greene of "a
Temple Pl., Boston Mass, discoverer of the
world famous DR.. Greenes Nervura, as well
as other marvellous, strengthening. vitalz-
ing and invigorating remedies who, not
wlthstanding his enormous practice and eX-
cessve demands upon his time, offers to
consult with any sufferer from nervous and
physical debility absolutely free and adj
wise and counsel him in regard to his case
without charge. This IS an opportunity for
weak, enervated ana exhausted men, of
which immediate advantage should be taken
If you cannot call, write to DR.. Greene
about your case. Your disease is certainly
durable under his wonderful Strengthening
vitalizing and invigorating remedies, and
you can be cured at home. AT least write
for his advice and counsel.

The par value of the Suez Canal shares
is 800 francs. Last April they were quoted
in Paris at 3,51S francs The shares of
the Suez Canal purchased for the British
Government by the astute Dsraeli, for
which he paid $40, 600, 900, are now worth
the enormous sum of 1923, 600, 600, CT
much more than the entire original cost of
the Suez Canal itself. The operating
expenses are probably less than nine per
