The average Dutchman of the south
OF Holland, though he can skate very
well. looks rather foolish on the ice.
His short legs and wide breeches are
admirable adjunets to his nose, his
thin cooked beard and the lumpishness
of his expression. To be sure, this
breadth makes him look important, but
IL he were less muscular it would be
a sad hindrance to him in battling with
the wind, which in winter in apt to
make skating in one direction some
thing of a trial.
The Frieslander, however, is taller,
better proportional and in all respects
a handsome fellow The yellow beard
he sometimes wears seems to put him
at once on a footing of affinity with
the other members of that respectable
Anglo-Saxon family to which we our
selves belong, quite as much as his
provincial speech and his blue eyes.
He is a most masterful creature when
once he has put on those quaint old
fashioned skates of his, and thinks
nothing of making score of miles
from one village to another before YOU
and are out Of bed. AS for the cold,
what cares he for it? He knows he
must rely on that lusty circulation of
his to keep him from being benumbed,
though he clothe ever SO lightly, and
seems more regardful of his head
which a sealskin cap takes care Of
than of his well shaped body.-Cham-

A Primitire pnstnmce.

Until short time ago n very peculiar
postotfice was used in Argyllshire,
England. 1t was situated in the lonely
hills between Drimmin and Barr, three
miles from any habitation, and con-
sisted of simple slit in a rock, closed
up by a nicely fitting stone.
When any letters arrived at Drim-
min for the district of Barr, they were
conveyed to the rock by the first shep-
herd or crofter going so far. Having
been dropped in and the slit reclosed,
they were left until a shepherd or
crofter from the other side happened
to come along, when they were taken
up and delivered at their destination.
No letter was ever known to be lost at
this primitive postoffice.

a Chicago man has observed that,
Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds-some of the latter are worth
less. Act kindly and gently, show
sympathy and lend a helping hand.
You cannot possibly lose by it," Most
men appreciate a kind word and en-
enlargement more than SUBSTANTIAL
help. There are persons in this COM
munity who will truthfully say: 'My
good friend, cheer up. a few doses
of Chamberlain Cough Rem
edy will rid you of your cold, and
there is no danger whatever from
pneumonia when you use that medi-
cine. 1t always cures. 1 know it for

for the church tower. Directly the

down at once. One of his parishioners
asked him why he did not like it.
