MEMORIES.

My mind is running backward Ger the years
agone
When I, little IN alden, in garments thin and
worn,
Went trudgng through the meadows among
buttercups of gold,
Seeking the juicy berries amid the grassy
void.
Many day l pent climbing DER the green
New England hills
Seeking fruit and flowers beside the ripping
rlls;
Carrying home the treasures from the old
trees torn,
l, a little maiden, in garments soiied and worn
o, how loved that old New England farm!
What fun to hunt for eggs all through the
fragrant barn
Where new-mown hay and clover sweet was
stored in all the mows,
To feed, when winter comes, the sheep, the
horses, and the cows.j
How sweet the orchards when their bloom
All round the old farm house were shedding
their perfume!
When roses showed their buds of pink,
And plum trees white as snow,
Made fair that rough and rocky farm
With springtime's richest glow!
And I, a little maiden in garments darned and
worn,
Went romping through the fields and lanes I'M
mindful of the thorn
That pricked my bare and sunburnt feet,
For was searching here and there. for hidden
treasures sweet.
The woods. how dark and damp, and how allur-
ing, too,
When winters SHOWS had disappeared and once
again the skies were blue;
When birds were thrilling forth their lays OF
gratitude in song,
And all the air was sweet with scents from
nature newly born!
And I little maiden in garments soiled and old
I priced all these dear things of earth as
miser prizes gold.
wandered far afield and many an hour spent
In watching bee and bird and flower, on nature
all intent.
And from my heart went up prayer to Him
who gave it all;
Who did create such wondrous things upon
this earthly ball;
A prayer of purest sweetest joy from childish
lips gave.
1t dubbed up from grateful heart in songs OF
truest praise,
And now, when look backward and see that
little child,
That maiden with her freckled face and hair
all flying wild,
When see her dancing through the lanes with
step SO light and free.
Or climbing after birds nests with step SO
light and free,
I sometimes wish God had seen fit to lay her
in the grave,
Far from life's bitter sorrow, He only thus
could save; .,,
Yet from my heart long, submissive still
to be,
And meath the Christening rod the Fathers
love to see.
-
And now know that He had something grand
in store,
And that is why He brought me up from child
hoods happy shore
That might know Him better and His most
gracious. plan,
For saving all, the sad. lost world. yea! every
willing man!
And while I backward look at that little
maiden there
With her garments old. her sunburnt feet and
wind tossed hair,
thank my Lord that He did bring those
childish feet
Into he path Of womanhood and sacrifice COM

THE STORY OF A STAR.

In mentioning the death of Elizabeth S
Noyes, widow of Crosby S. Noyes. the Wash
ington. D. c., correspondent of the Boston
Herald says:
Mrs. Noyes and her husband came from
Maine great many years ago. He establish
ed the most prosperous newspaper at Washing
ton and became great influence in Washing
ton affairs. Possibly he was during his day
the first citizen of Washington in private life
The correction of an error in this para
graph may not be considered of much import
ance, but while Mr.. Noyes has great claims to
distinction he did not establish the Evening
Star. the newspaper referred to. Mr.. Noyes
went to Washington from Maine when young
man, and is said to have walked from balti-
more to the National Capital. He found en-
poyment in Shillington's book store, corner Of
1-2 street and Pennsylvania avenue, then a
favorite resort Of Daniel Webster and other
public men of that day, and where as late as
the early 70's Mr.. Shillington was still selling
books. Later Mr.. Noyes served route with
the Evening Star. then became repor ter

in the '7c's Mr.. Wallack, the proprietor, sold
the paper to Messrs. c. S. Moves, Geo. w.
Adams, S. H. Kaufman, A. R. Sheppard and a
Mr.. Baker, the latter being the business man
ager, hut retiring few years later, his asso-
ciates taking over his interests. Then Mr..
Sheppard-"Boss Sheppard" involved
in District affairs sold his interest to Messrs.
Moves, Adams and Kaufman. Mr.. Adams
was the Washington correspondent of the
New York World and other leading papers.
and one of the ablest best known and most
loved of the newspaper men at the National
Capital. Mr.. Kaufman, for many years the
business manager, was interested in art and
was one of the trustees of the Corcoran Art
Gallery. Mr.. Adams had no active connection
with the paper except for short time as bust
ness manager when Mr.. Kaufman was in Eu-
rope. Messrs. Noyes and Kaufman had sons
who grew up in the business and it was finally
left in their hands, the seniors spending most
of their time in travel, 1t is worthy of note

HELPCOMES QUICKLY
When Hyomei is Used for Head Colds
Catarrh or Group.

When your head is all stuffed up causing
you dull headaches, difficult breathing, con-
slant shifting, and you feel generally miser.
able, there is nothing quite equal to Hyomei
to give quick. effective and lasting benefit
yet perfectly harmless, simple to use and mex
pensive.
To get quick and certain relief from catarrh
or a cold it is most important that the medica-
ton goes directly to the infamed tissue lining
the air passages. That's the Hyomei method.
Just put few drops of antiseptic Hyomei in
the inhaler that comes with every complete
outfit, and breathe it-you will feel better at
once It clears the head. quickly relieves the
tiphtpess in the chest and that choked-up feel
ing, all disagreeable nasal discharges, watery
ewes and dull headaches surely cease.
So certain is A. A. Howes Co. of the cura-
tive powers of Hyomei for catarrh Group,
asthma, and similar diseases. that they sell it
on the "No-cure-no-pay" plan.

The fine sleighing and clear, bracing
weather of the past few days are addi-
tlonal reasons for hankfuIness on this
day OF Thanksgiving. While we have
not interviewed the Oldest inhabitant,
IN any have remarked that they could not
recall a ar in which there was sleigh
ing at Thanksgiving. Usually it has
been the hardest travelling of the year,
with either mud or deep ruts in the fro
zen ground. This year produce las come
to market on runners, automobiles have
been much in evidence and the unusual
facilities for transportation have been
favorable alike for those who have pro-
duce to market ard those who had
goods to sell, and business has been live
ly. while this condition is cause for
tharkfulress We are reminded that the
water supply is still inadequate and more
rain is needed to fill the ponds and
treans before they are sealed up for
the winter. The sun no longer has suf
dcient power to melt the snow on the
ground and only January thaw' can
carry it off and relieve the long continued
drouth.

DUROC JERSEY SWINE
ID. w. Bagley Offers Some Fact.
About These Hogs.


IF we should look back for 21
years we would find only very few
men who were breeders ofDurocs",
says d. w. Bagley of Lacey, whose
advertisement appears in the Far
mers' Market Place on page six, "but
those times are past and for several
years the Duroc has out-numbered
any other breed at the leading State
Fairs and today 65 per cent of all the
hogs that go on the Chicago, Omaha,
Kansas City and st. Louis markets
show predominence of Duroc blood.
Il will not take the space to tell
you why this condition exists, except
to say that the farmer raises the kind
that makes him the most money. 1t
has been proven that the Duroc is
very hardy, being hog for almost
any climate. In the far north in
Canada he is gaining fast on other
breeds. The same condition exists in
the South, where he is fast becoming
favorite. In short the Durocs are
vigorous, docile and very prolific.
There is no breed that will put
on more pounds in the same length
of time on good feed consumed, and
they can be marketed at any age
after four to six months and will al
ways command the top prices. To be
brief, if you want hogs for breeding
purposes, come to Lacey and if, after
looking over the Durocs, you are not
satisfied they are what yau want, Mil
Ter & Branch of the Woodland Stock
Farm may have just what you want"
