The Torment of Cold.

l thank heaven that know what it
is to be cold. to be cold from the
crown Of the head to the sole of the
foot, to be cold from the cuticle in to
the heart, and from the heart to the
soul. I thank heaven for it, because,
knowing this, have 4 new revelation
Of the possibility of suffering, and am
abie to find paradise in a common
wood fire.
Knowing tlis. declare to you there
Is not a more pathetic sight i'll the
world than poor man who IS thor
oughly cold from week to week. 1t Is
the refinement Of torture.
It does not gnaw like hunger, which
presently becomes sort Of insanity
and relieves itself. 1t is dead. un-
blest, icy torment. used to see men
in the army whose silent endurance OF
cold brought more tears to my eyes
than all the hunger and all the wouIds.

candidates who fail to secure enough

who was candidate for deputy from
Montague, received only six votes and
issued an address thanking "the six
electors who showed their confidence in
me. They are the only solvent citizens
in the constituency, and beg to assure
them Of my esteem. AS for the others,
hereby give them notice that in fu'
ture all attempts to obtain credit at
my establishment will be relentlessly
refused. During the last nine years
they have robbed me Of about 5000
francs in bad debts, which I have
taken no steps to recover. Yet when an
opportunity is afforded Of showing
their appreciation Of my len1ency !
meet with the basest ingrattude."

CARLYLE and london's Noises.

No one has ever inveighed against
the noises of London with such pic
turesque emphasis as Thomas Carlyle.
When Augustus Hare met him for the
first time ut 4 dinner given by Lady
Marian Afford most Of Carlyle's con-
versation ran upon the suferings at
tached to q London residence. THAT
which the world torments me in most"
he moaned, ''is the awful confusion OF
noise. 1t is the devils OWE Internal din
all the blessed day long, confounding
Gods works and his creatures-a truly
awful hell-like combination, and worst
Of all is q railway whistle, like the
screech of 10000 cats and every cat OF

this diatribe may be set the fact that
Carlyle spent the last forty-seven years
of his life in London without any COM
pulsion to live there.

lAKOTAN.ON
FROM S|OUTHAM|

In well played game of base ball,
Lakota won from tie home team on
the local grounds. The first inning
was the undoing ofssthe home boys.
They were a little over anxious and
as result Lakota scored three runs
after two men were out. The other
score came in the eighth frame. Hen
messy was first up il this inning and
took three powerful swats at the or
one. The catcher dropped the third
strike but recovered and attempted to
get the runner at first but failed to
throw high enough and the ball col
ideds with Mr.. Hennesy's headsome
headwork. This by the way was the
first time ex-captain Paul Hennesy
saw first base, and it was also the last
time. The next two were easy outs,
but Baird came across with bingle
which scored Henesy.
The home team scores came in the
third and fifth frames. With one
down in the third inning, Retter-
ath singled; another single sent hin,
to third and he scored minute lat
en- when the er.cas: oasshe shird
corner, failed to handle grounder.
In the fifth. Martin singled and stole
second: A long drive for single to
left center scored him.
There was no individual starring in
the game. It was a game of tear
work from first to last. The game
was pitchers battle between Fan
ming of Lakota and Martin Of South
am, in which Martin had the best o1
the argument all the way through, anc
should have won his game but for thu
shakey support in the first inning.
Sam Adler of Brocket oficiated az

both sides got a square deal.

digestive trouble and neuralgia suffer

caused him early to lose his teeth,
and from the extreme delicacy Of his
system he could eat nothing less capa-

article with a little soup or coffee was
apt to comprise his whole dinner.
In reference to his manner OF dress
his daughter has said:
His dress, unfortunately, he neither
cared for himself, nor would he let
others care for it. say unfortunately,
because his carelessness gave rise
among punctilious people, unaccust0m-

foundation. 1t might be that a thought

coat just taken Off or not put on, with
out stockings at all, or with one of and
one on, and becoming lost in what
grew out of this thought, he would
work for hours, hardly even noticing
the coffee which was his chief support
at such times.

would arrive visitors, Of whom there
were many, probably from such a dis
tance that they could not be turned

which was one of the great charms OF
his character, would appear at once
rather than keep them waiting while

roundings signs of scrupulous neat.
