Anthony Simpkins, nonagenarian
of Lanesboro Mass, started one day
lately for Hopkins Station. Mich. The
nearest railway station to Lanesboro
is in Pittsteld, and when Anthony ar
rived in that city, with his blooming
wife of % years, he created a sensation
of considerable magnitude. 1t was
neither the nonagenarian nor his wife
however, that was the real cause of the
excitement. but a peculiar article OF
baggage which the aged traveller had
with him.
When the baggagemaster came to
look over the travelling equipment
which Mr.. Simpkins unloaded from a
wagon and offered for transportation
he was somewhat surprised to see, in
the midst of bandboXes and carpetings.

The baggageman admitted that he
would like to look into the coffin. and
straightway Anthony unfastened the
lid and exposed the articles which he
had mentioned, and many others as

The controversy had attracted the
attention of the people who We're
waiting in the station. and by the time
the owner had raised the lid of the
coffin he was surrounded by a large and
curious crowd. Somebody asked the
old man how it happened that he used
coffin as his trunk. and he explained
the matter in this way:
"Three years ago I had an idea that

THz OLD STORY.

I stand beside the window here
Ard gaze AT John and MAY,
AS hand in hand. uGheed!ng aught.
They w.ad their wooirg way:
lAnd, oh. 1t brings ne back the days.
Ere age had changed my view.
And every tale I heard or told
still believed was new.
Ga or, go en-. my happy boy.
And read your brief romance:
Youth is the time for love and rhyme,
So do not lose your chance.
The joys that blessed my cary days
l would not keep from you;
For soon you'll fiLd the happy tale
Won't always seem so new.
We used to stroll, lons years ago,
About the same old way;
You were blushing maiden then,
And I a lover gay.
I told you how my heart was yours,
And that I'd prove it true,
Twas an old, cid tale l tod you, Kate
But al, we thought twas new.
And as stand and watch them here
1t all comes back to me:
The shady walks, the loving talks.
In days that used to be.
There they go walking slow, absorbed
Just as we used to DO;
It's an old, old tale he's telling, Kate,
But, ah, they think it new.
But can it be that I am wrong,
Have l grown Grabbed with age?
Let me tur: back life's closing book,
And view that older page
I'm partly wrong, I'm partly right,
Loves story's old, tits true;
But though twas born in earth's first
morn,
Loves self is ever new.

unbushed lake has many of the terrors
of an ocean or desert. The trees are
placed about so yards apart and are
frozen firmly into holes cut clear to
the water when the ice is not over four
inches thick. They are set out by eye
and hold wonderfully true courses from
