This is a genuine extract from . sohoolboy's recent Essay on Nelson:"
 "Ohi Harding, kiss me again" were the butefull words of a heroik mortal who won grate battle with cue eye md wooden leg. Before the bloody context this motto was uttered by him; "The queen expects every man to do his duty" Nelson was brave man but his morals was not respectable. Once lady whose name was Mrs. Hambington nursed him, and he said. "Oh heavins heavins why do love-" When he died tho queen met him in boat and he went to St. Paul's and was buried. This is a marvellous lesson to me and all schoolboya Do your duty to your pas tors and masters and then even with single leg you can say, with this sim pie thing I will do my duty" As Nel- son himself said Even though you are only man you can do your duty.

But the Honest Farmer Couio Not
 Make . Sale.
 A correspondent with Q mild griev. snce writes as follows:
 "About a fortnight ago I chanced to read in The Plain Dealer the IS reme- iies for the cure of certain diseases. For rheumatism, for instance, was told to Drink , wineglassful of hard cider three times day Now. as all my neighbors will testify, rheumatim ts good steady tenant that finds lodg- Ing in several parts of my body and is there to stay. When read in The Plain Dealer that cider is good to drive of the unwelcome guest, assure you I eager. ly watched for farmer of whom in. tended to buy at least a barrelful. At last seedy looking individual came to my door. Say, mister. want to buy any cidery' Did want to buy any9 Why, that's what had been watching for at least week. Of course didn't let the farmer know how anxious l was to get his liquid. On the contrary. l thought I'd put up neat little trick to test the beverage. Is it pure cider? Isn't there any water in it2' asked L 'WaterT echoed the farmer; You insult me Tako this cider to tho city chemist and have 1t tested. I'll swear there Is no adulteration about it. Have a couple gallons of it. sirT Look here, my man, said l, I would buy a kegful of you If you had some watered. l am afflicted with rheumatism and am not allowed to drink it strong If you will be kind enough to put some water in 1t and bring 1t to me, as said, I'll take keg- ful. My farmer looked around suspi' ciously, and putting his hand on one side of his mouth, he softly remarked: Say, boss, you don't think that we farmers could afford to sell pure cider for 10 cents gallon, do you! That stuff con- tains only 70 per cent cider, The rest ia rainwater, To tell you the truth, we drink up the genuine stuff at home. How many gallons did you wantr You rascal, roared. Now I've caught you just wanted'- could not finish my sentence, for the honest farmer jumped on his wagon and in less than no time was galloping down the street.

GOOD HUMoR IN POLITICS.
Americans Enjoy Laughing at Them
selves as Well as at Others.

Americans Enjoy Laughing Mt Them
selves as Well as at others.
+ Youths Companion: The element of
exaggeration which enters largely into
all Characteristic American humor finds
full play In the opportunities of a pres
idential campaign Every public man
has some folble which can be made to
furnish food for mirth. Every public
policy Is capable of being grotesquely
stated by keen critic. 1t Is q peculi-
arity of Americans that they not only
enjoy laughing at others, but they do
not mind being made to laugh at them
selves. 9lI
But to be effective In politics and to
commend itself to the people. humor
must be good natured. Humor which
carries with 1t the sting Of malice over
reaches itself. The American sense OF
fair play revolts against misrepresenta-
tions of sentiment or attacks upon
character, even when conveyed In n car
toon or a Jest: and politicians have
learned that they, do not pay. But there
Is a kind OF humor SO merry and good
tempered that even the objects Of 1t
cannot choose but Join In the laugh
which 1t arouses; and Of such humortwe
can hardly have too much. as a relief
to the strenuousness OF our long presi-
DENTAL campaigns.
