Almost Centenariaus.

Mr.. David Murdoch who lives near Ray
Post Office, this county is eighty five years
old and his coed wife is ninety. This fact
alone speaks volumes for the kind and gentle
habits. which mark the even terror OF their
lives, as hand in hand they descend to the
erd of the journey.
Itisa beautiful inspiration TO the youthful,
and should ever silence those who mock at
the marriage relation.
These people have lived from inf cy on
the land that they now own and ha occu-
pied for more than sixty five years hus'
band and wife. MIR. Murdock has abored
with his own hands for their own supp rtand
during all these years he has never orEed
but two animals; one mule which e ed al
the age Of thirty two years and the er 9
horse which he now owns at the age Of hirty
five years.
1t seems that long life in that neichbo lood
exists not only TO It's Inhabitants but 10 the
animals as well.

The JOy of Working.

1t is better to lose health like a
spendthrift than to waste it like a
miser. 1t is better to live and be
done with it, than to die daily in the
sickroom. By all means begin your
folio; even if the doctor does not
give you year even if be hesitates
about month, make one brave push
and see what can be accomplished in a
week. 1t is n9t only in finished
undertakings that we ought to honor
useful labor. A spirit goes odt of the
man who means execution, which
outlives the most untimely ending
All who have meant good work
with their whole hearts have done
good work although they may die be-
fore they have time to sign it. Every
heart that has dealt strong snd cheer
fully has left a hopeful impulse behind
it in the world, and bettered the tradi
tions of mankind.

side Of the four largest cities in the
country.
In the original house the masonry
and plastering cost 5000; the carpentry
and woodwork, $1,000; the plumbing,
gashtting and heating, $500; the paint
ing and decorating, $135; while the
miscellaneous expenses amounted to
$25o; bringing the total cost to $3.50.
Rv substituting hot air furnace for
the steam heater in the cellar saving
of $I5o could be made; less ornate fin
ishing and decorating would cause a
further saving of $50: using as sani-
tary, but palmer, bathroom accessor-
les, and emitting the closet on the
lower floor. would cut $Ioo from that
estimate; while a little change in the
carpentry and masonry would reduce
these items $I5o and $225 respectively.
Even at this, the house would be one
of the best of the moderate priced
houses shown our readers; and every
