NO SHORT HOURS
FOR THE FARMER

Elijah smith. Of Berlin. a farmer,
has lived on his farm for nearly thirty
years. He is very Industrious and his
capacity for work is something pro-
digious. Indeed, he is famous among
his friends and neighbors for his long
working hours and his tireless energy.
Elijah used to keep a large herd Of
COWS, and Of course he had his chores
to do both morning and evening. His
neighbors say that it was not at all
unusual to sec a light out in Elijah's
barn at II o'clock at night. This Of
course seems incredulous, but it is not

which is told Of this industrious man.

the east and il was then that he no.

with the enormous collection of relics
and trophies of a fast-perishing race
at the museum maintained by the In

1t is said that the reduction in tho
number of warlike outbreaks upon the
reservation of late is TO me ascribed
directly to the restrictions placed upon
the sale of liquor, and the movement
ON the part of the Indians themselves
i'm favor of abstinence. which is to be
compared with the effort Of the Chi
nese to abolish the smoking of opium.
