Pisces generally have to work for their
living. II one could have a say in the

is pre-eminently the constellation OF
service and of use. Though Pisces
subjects usually must earn their own
money and help others many noted
persons have appeared under this sign.
One of them is Col. W. F, Cody, Buffa'

Sudden Death Of the Great =.
II Organ Maker Of Brattleboro

General Estey is dead"
These words which passed from
mouth to mouth, early on the morning
OF March carried all over Brattleboro
the sudden, startling and sorrowful
news OF the death oil Brattleboros
first citizen.
Gen. Julius J. Estey died suddenly
from an affection OF the heart at quar-
ter of Ave in the morning. The fact
has not been generally known that
General Estey has suffered to a con.
siderable extent during the winter
from difficult breathing, caused by
heart trouble. He has himself had
premonitions OF a fatal result, saying
to his family that he had the same
trouble which his father had, and
should die in the same way. Neither
his family nor his physician, however,
considered his situation precarlous,
and they have believed that, with
proper attention to diet, he would be
relieved of the accumulation of adj.
pose tissue about the heart which un.
doubtedly caused the difficulty.
Knew the End Had Come.
General Estey had not been feeling
well for several days, though he had
slept well for the past two or three
nights. He had a good nights sleep
on the night of his death until he
awoke soon after four o'clock in the
morning. suffering greatly from an at
/ tack OF distressed breathing. He said
to his wife soon after he awoke that
I the end had come, and he was going
to die. She tried to dissuade him from
the idea, but he persisted, and bade
her an affectionate goodbye, saying
simply, 1T is His will" These were
his last words.

3Another Story Of the Cherry Tree


You have heard the pretty story
Told about cherry tree
OF the boy who had Ratchet,
And was truthful as could be.
But. alas! the tale as told you
Is a trifle out of gear,
And the only proper version
Is the one that's given here:
Now, the Father of his Country
Was. of course, a truthful lad,
And, although there was an orchard
He no Ratchet ever had.
In that orchard grew fine cherries,
Which we're picked with greatest
care,
And with these young Georges mother
Did delicious pies prepare.

On a certain rare occasion,
When she had some friends at tea,
Her last cherry pie was missing,
And chagrined and sad was she.
She had made pie and placed It
High upon a pantry shelf.
But some one had found the pastry
And had freely helped himself.
As regards the guilty person.
She was plunged in deepest doubt
Yet one simple. plain inquiry
Was the means of finding out.
To her son she put the question:
How about that cherry pie?"
"Mother, dear" said George, 81 ate It
