FA11.SIER JONES' EXAMPLE. "I was only just a-thinkio'," said Panner Jones ono day, "A•goin"'long a•ridiu' to the oily on my hay, A Burnie out tor mud -holes an' a.sinkin' in the road, Always geeiu' an bawin', for fear to spill the load. Why can't we farmers have a road like city folks you see, Where all fine rigs and things like that can be kept as olean's oan be ? An' no tnruin out fey mud boles, nor worr'iu' your horse to death, Nor haogin"round about Dome plane 'til the oritter'e found Ito breath. 'By gosh 1' sez I, 'I'll fix my road along my farm an' see If all the neighbors take the hint an' do the same a0 m8.' Well, then I begin a workin', an' first it seems likeplay, But I had my men a-helpin' till the closin' of the day, An' every day that I could spare was gradin' that 'ere road, An fixin' thioge so that a horse oonld easy pull a load. At last the job was finished, but it didn't seem to pay, As the neighbore was only thinkin' an' a-wonderin' what to say. But they kinder got ashamed of theirs, an' seemed to take the hint ; So they begun a-workin' too, to make their road like flint. Bt Iaet the roads wee all alike, so you couldn't tell their linkin, An' I am powerful glad' said Jones, "that I begun a.thinkin' " DAVID IIUI1IE ca THE DRUNK. ARD'S DREAM. Beside a hawthorn hedge hi bloom, Beneath the moonshine white, Lay what man knew as David Immo ; But he was gone Una night. $e stood upon a boundless 0ea, A sea of deep morays ; Its depths would never sounded be, Its limits none would pave.

"I understand that Rudyard Kipling is paid two shillings a word for his poetry," said the soulful poet to the hard-headed editor. "Now 'you don't pay me any, suoh price for my poetry." "I oan hardly pay you two shillings a word ; but look hero : I'll give you two shillings a line for a abort poem.' Next day the budding poet returned with this : THE COURSE OF T,RUS LOVE. I.

At Hamilton, 0., on pay day, n student of goofs' phenomena witnessed a trans. action of very great signieoanoe, whioh shows how the saloon helps business.

The cashier obeyed in. struations—paid to the collector the amount of hie claim, and the employee the balance of his wages for that week, After the saloon keeper's claim had been met, the workingman received five Dents, Our "student" curi0no to know more of hie life, went to his home, and (earned that hie wife was then engaged upon the third waebing for that week.

An Editor Says That It Takes fltouey to non a Newspaper. "It takes money to run a newepaper." —St: John (Kan.) News. What an exageration ; what a whop- per. It has been disproved a thousand times; it is a oleau oase of airy fanny, It doesn't take money to run a news. PPene¢ er; it a nwithout o n n r o I a charitable insbitutiou, a begging cone caro, a highway robber. B'Godfrey the newspaper is the 0blld of the air, a creature of a dream. It can go on and on and on, when any other eoneer0 would be in the hands of a reoeiver and wound up with cobwebs in the window. It takes wind to run a newspaper ; it takes gait to ran a nowepaper. It takes a scintillating, amrobatio ilnaginatiou, and a half dozen white shirts, and a railroad page to run a newspaper. Bet money—Piokles to Betsy and six hauds round, svho ever needed money 01 con- dnoting a newspapet'. Kind words are the medium of exoltange that do the busi• nese for the editor—kind words and ohnroh social tickets. When you see an editor with money, watch him. H'e'll be paying hills and d1sgraoing hie profession. Never give money 10 an editor, t1oke him evade it out. He likes to swap. Then when you die, after having stood around for years and sneered at the edi- tor and hie little jim now paper, be sure aid have your wife gond in far throe extra copies byone P n of your weeping obildren and when elle reads the geuer.

Got your lodge letter )loads 211(1 stationery printed out of town, and then flood the editor with beautiful thoughts In resoitltiorls of respect and cards of Bethke. They make gook spicy reading, and when you pink it up idled with thoau;;Iowing a1,cl vivid mortuary articl05, you arc so proud of your little pallor : But money, 000011 the ilithy thing. Don't lot the pure, iunooeut edi» for know anything about it. Beep that for sordid tradespeople who charge for their worse, Thu editor givnebh. bounty away, The Lord loves a cheerful giver. He'll take care of all the editors, Don't worry about the editor. Ile has a ober. ter from the state to cot as a door mat for the community. He'll get the paper out somehow ; and stand up for you when you run for °floe, and lie about your daughter's yo r bigf oted sone when they got a 31 per week job, and weep over your shriveled soul when it Is released from your gaeping body, and smile at your giddy wife's aeeoud marriage. He'll get along. The Lord alone lcnow8 how—but the editor will get there somehow. Canadian INT ews. William Mack was nominated as the Liberal candidate for Stormont in the Ontario elolions.
