Happiness From Troubles.

Being human, happily or unhappily, we cannot deny the comfort to be found in the reflection that misery never lacks the company it loves. We all have our troubles, and some of us derive much satisfaction from the con- temptation of them. Indeed, there are those who are happy only when wretch ed, but these We believe to be as few in number as they are disagreeable i'll association. The vast majority of hu- mans are normal and disposed, there fore, in conformity with natural law, to smile when the skies are clear and to grieve under the portent of clouds; hence the ease with which worry takes possession of the mind, colors the dis position and makes a cripple of effort. That causes abound we know and must admit, as we do almost uncon- sciously the certainty of death, but too little cognizance is taken of the fact that the effect of mere apprehen- sion, which Is all that worry really is, may be subjected to simple mental treatment and be overcome.-George Harvey in North American Review.

FOUGHT WILD CAT
Ten Year Old Boy Had an Ex-
 perience Yesterday.

Howell F. Morton, a ten year old boy, had an experience yesterday near his home in Southford with a wild cat which he will be slow to forget. He was out with his dog and small rife when he sighted what he thought was coon. He fired, hitting it in the head. The cat fell to the ground and the dog tackled it. After few rounds the youngster saw the dog was getting torn up badly and went to it's aid. He hit the cat with the rife, when it turned upon him and gave him all he could do to save his life. It clawed through his rubber boots and made ribbons of his trou- sers and coat, but he finally put it out of business with crack on the skill. This is the worst spot in the state for wild cats and young Morton was lucky that both himself and his dog did not fall victims to the monster that gave them battle.
