Rest and Work.

Where is rest? In what isles Of the sum
mer-glad seas?
In what gardens of balm? Meath what
sleep-drooping trees?
By what Still-fiowing water, what lily
fringed streams?
In what meadows of silence. what valley
of dreams?
Meath what thunderless skies, by what
hillsideS of sleep?
on what moon-lighted mountain or star
lighted deep?
Yes, where on the earth's or the oceaii' :
wide breast
Is the home OF release and the harbo" of
rest?
Why. here in the corn-helG-and take W
your hoe.
Right here in this mil-make the paddle
wheel go,
Right here with your engine-up steam
and away,
Right here with your sewing machine ev-
cry day.
Where there's work, there is rest and il :
nowhere beside.
Though you travel all lanus, and you sail
every tide.
Where is rest? Go TO work, and your
spirit renew.
For no man can rest who has nothing to
do.

Small, Maynard & Co, Boston. Mass
, announce this week that the book NJ
Holman +. Day Of Lewiston. entitled
Up in Maine" is now in it's sth tbou-
sand and is selling in such style that
the publishers predict that It viii
reach sale of at least 10000 eopies
within three months more up in
Maine has been on the market inst
six months. The publishers state that
this is a very complimentary recep-
ton to be accorded TO a book Of verso
for the sales Of volumes in rhvme
usually hover about the $500 mark, Y
During the month Of December ainnp
1874 copies Of Up in Maine" were dis
posed Of. Nearly a score of public
readers in various parts Of the country
are using the selections in the book for
platform work and say that the Yam
kee humor is received with great
favor. Roberts Harper, the eminent
lecturer. is reading from the book and
at east two Of the selections have been
set 70 music. A New York phono-
graph company uses some of the verses
on its records and several actors in
monologue parts recite poems from the
book. Therefore at least one side of
Maine character is becoming pretty
wildly known over the United States
through the mediumship of Up in
