Better Than He Thought.

A farmer living not far from Brook

heard to complain that the place
lacked enterprise-was dull-not up tC
snuff-and all in all it was evident
that his liver was out Of order. He
must have found company that
changed his opinion for he remained
in town until Monday when his family
sent for him to come home.

The worst tyranny is that Of tears
