Don't Rush the Season.

Heard a robin on the limb
Took nay faunels off to him.
Saw bluejay on the wing
Pitched goloshes with fling.
Saw d fish. worm on the lawn
Winter coat went into pawn.
On the fence an old tomcat--
Out of sight my old cloth hat.
Saw the merry kids at play
Bought light top-coat that day.
Hurdy-gurdy struck my ear
Then I said: II know it's here.'
That night came snow and sleet-
Ergo, cold and clamnly feet,
Backache, earache. nose a-whiz,
Laid up now with rhenmatiz.-Ex.

Kicked by a Horse.

Andrew Hedstrom was very badly
hurt at his home on Maple Hill last
Sunday morning by being kicked in the
face by vicious mare. His nose was
broken and his cheek bone fractured so
badly that splinter was removed by
DR.. Hicks, who was hurriedly called to
attend him. Mr.. Hedstrom, who had
been at work in the village all week
got the mare from Tom Mccormick to
ride to his home Saturday right. It
was while he was feeding the next morn
ing that the accident happened. Mr..
Hedstrom will not be able to return to
work for several weeks. The doctor
says he will not be badly disfgured.

from the line, she said:
"You will have to pay for Them
The soldier asked her when. She
said:

The soldier replied:
"Oh, if you are going to trust me
that long I will take another pair"
