There are some who aro noted as .hu- man flowers, And some who aro known as mere jokes. They're scattered abroad over cities and plains, There showing . their follies and charms; Rat no one more surely has need of hisbrains Than the farmer who truly fades. Some farmers ape neighbors, and sow what they sow, Then follow their methods and thought; Live on the things that may happen to grow, And stay on the place They have bought; They skin off the timber, the fruit and the grass, Then wonder why life has no charms; They never once taste, as the .years quickly pass, The joys of the farmer who farms. Tho farmer who farms has some joys all his own, Some plans and some beautiful schemes, He's king—yes, a monarch; that farm is his throne; Success is his sweetest of dreams. He studies, he labors, he plans with delight; To him every day has its charms; He's guiding Old Nature, who works day and night, He's happy, if really he farms. The Three Gold Balls. Much speculation has been ventured as to the origin and significance of the unique trade mark that swings above every pawnshops says a writer. The Most popular misconception is that the three gold balls stand for the money loaned by the pawnbroker. The first pawnbroker in England was an agent of the .Medici family of Florence, and the three balls which he. adopted as his sign were the coat of arils of that •faalous• line. For the history of the adoption by the Medias of this heraldry there is a fantastic tale. It has been said that it was ap- propriated by an early Medici, one of the generals of Charlemagne, who, af- ter slaying a certain terrible giant, took off as a souvenir his great club which had nailed to it three iron balls. Enlightening if true. It is not true. The fact is that the original balls of the device were blue, .'nd represent- ed epresent ed nothing more romantic than the pills formerly administered by the Medias, who were physicians before they were money -lenders. The blue balls were gilded only about 70 years ago. "From the sublime to the ridiculous," may say the disappointed reader. But truth will out. Beware the gilded pills!

Simply because, when you are scared or frightened, the blood almost leaves your faro entirely. in,l r nor- mal conditions, the. red blood whtelt is flowing through the arteries of your face gives the face a reddish tinge, and your face beceines white vixen you are frightened, bemuse then th blood leaves the face. It is quit( singular, but when you are really frightened, whatever the cause may be, the human system receives such a shock that the heart just about stops beating altogether. When your hear stops beating of course the flow of the blood from the heart stops, and then there is no supply of fresh red blood coaling through the arteries under the skin of your face. Therefore you look white—the color your face would be f no blood ever flowed through you arteries and veins. Some people have aces so white they look as though they were scared all the time, This s not because they have no bloody owing through the veins and arteries n their faces, but because their sup. ply of blood is less than other people's nd sometimes because the walls of heir arteries and veins are so much bicker than the average that the ober of the blood sloes not show hrough. There are also many people who have so much blood in their SYS. ems all the time, and the walls of hose arteries are so thin, that they ook at all times as though they might e blushing.
