The Huron Expositor, 1892-04-08, Page 6A Waal State. One of Philadelphia's most prominent physicians, while in Virginia, wandered into a village court -room, where a trial was in progress. As he entered, a dispute which was being carried on between the prose- cution and defence as to the advisabihty of admitting a certain letter, as evidence, was ended by the judge's desiring that the let- ter be given to him in order that he might decide the matter. When the letter was handed to him he put on his spectacles, turned it first inside out, then upside down, then sideways examining it carefully all the time. " NiThat's the matter with the judge ?" asked Dr. Blank of a by-stander. Why doesn't he read the letter ?" "Fahey'," saidthe man, with a world of contempt in his tone, be can't read readin'sreadin', let alone writinhreadin' !" She "Did it Not." Harry Fawcett came out of the dining - room and lingered irresolutely in the hall. It was Sunday morning. Be had break- fasted late, as usual, on that morning. On other days he was at his office before nine. "A young lawyer," he said, " inuat look aa if he had business, if he means to have any," and Harry, though a rich man, was ambitious to do good work in his profession. He took cot his note -book and glanced over his engagements for the day and week; dinners, breakfasts, balls, theatre, parties. Harry was a favorite in society. Somehow, to -day, these things bored him. It suddenly flashed on him that his life was poor and filled with trifles. There is some stuff in me fit for better -work than this!" he thought, as he stood in the hall, hesitating. There was a picture by Corot in the draw- ing -room. He looked at it. "If I could paint something that would lasit, or write a book Something that would give thousands of people comfort and happiness when I am gone 1' he thought. • On the other wall was a copy of Vibert's picture of the returned missionary priest, showing to his superior his scars given by the savages. Harry's blood warmed. "I, too, could sacrifice myself for a great cause!" he said. "But what ceuse do I care for? There is not a single great purpose or mean- ing in my life." He looked out at the sunny street down which the people were hastening to church. He grew grave and thoughtful. He remem- bered how, when he was a little fellow, his mother took him to church. Her religion had been her life. She had died when he was still a boy. " Is her faith what I need ?" his soul asked, groping in the darkness for some- thing live and real. 6 ugust lower" What Is It For? This is the query per- petually on your little boy's lips. And he is no worse than the big- ger, older, balder -head- ed boys. Life is an interrogation point. What is it for?" we con- tinually cry from the cradle to the grave. So with this little introduc- tory sermon we turn and ask: "What IS AUGUST FLOWER VoR ?' ' As easily answered as asked: It is for Dys- pepsia. It is a special remedy for the Stomach and Liver. Nothing more than this; but this brimful. We believe August Flower cures Dyspepsia. We know it will. We have reasons for knowing it. Twenty years agci it started in a small countrytown. To -day it has an honored place in every city and country store, possesses one of the largest manu- facturing plants in the country and sells everywhere. Why is this? The reason is as simple as a child's thought. It is honest, does one thing, and does it right along—it cures Dyspepsia. 0 G. G. GREEN, Sole Man'fr,Woodbury,NJ. you shirk your duty. Leave your abandon your position at once." The boy thought his father harsh, but M was only just, and when, on onday morn- ing, he learned that this "bully" employer had taken his piece and done what he had left undone, the implied and merited re- buke cut hirre Manfully he apologized for his "shortsightedness," and never again in the many following years did he allow any personal preference to interfere with his plain duty.

" It -counts for a good deal to you, eh? Church, I mean. It is a help -a--kind of life, I suppose ?" "There is not much help in Dr. Ray's sermons," she said.

That night when they met at dinner he was his usual gay self. "Are you quite well, Harry ?" she asked. "1• thought you looked pale and troubled this morning." " I fell into an anxious mood, and was in- clined to take life seriously," be said, some- what bitterly. "But nobody else does, and why should I ?" "Your trouble is gone, then ?" "Ob, quite gone ! ' he said. She was silent, for in spite of his light tone she felt that he blamed her. What had she done? She puzzled about it during dinner„ but soon afterwards forgot it.

I hear no more The din of trade, with its tremendous roar, Or walk orride through streets defiled, made At brightest noonday, but a noisome shade Through which the odors of a foul decay Are Wafted freely, if by, night or day ; Where night or day the tread of weary feet Goes echoing down the long, tiresome street, On the farm the clover grows, Breath as sweet as any rose : And the wings of busy bees Flying o'er these crimson seas, Honey laden, tell that they Duty's calls vieth cheer obey ; While the merry making birds, Knowing not the form of words, In a language all their own Praise the Lord for mercies shown ; City choirs and organ notes Equal not their tuneful throats. In grand cathedrals city folks may try To worship God ; but underneath the sky, In eature's temple, God himself is there, Hia ear attends to every song or prayer. Talks Withoys. BY JACK TRUEMAN. I have a word for the boy who is about to enter business. You are about to launch your boat in new wa,ters. The current is awift; sometimes it will be for, but oft - times against, you. If doubt accompanies you in the commission of any act, think what your mother would say; would she approve? If you care for her, if you love her aa you should, you will then heed her commands and counsels, and your skiff will always find calmer waters and lees difficult to stem. A very trying time it is, to some unconsciously so, this transition period. A boy, with all of a boy's fondness for play and harmless sport; a boy with a brain ready to receive the hundred impressions daily presented to it; a boy with no con- ception of the word responsibility, and but very little of duty -how can he but make mistakes at first ? He cannot, but oh! if he would only profit by these errors ! The boy scoffs at his father's caution against some small vice -smoking, perhaps -and, later in life, with weakened nerves or itnpaired digestion, he will say, "Had I only listened to father !" The man, confi- dent in hie strength and the business experi- ence of ten years, laughs at the advice of an old friend, risks and loses. So it is through life; and wise is he, and prosperous will he be, if the errors of thepastare allowed to guide to future success. Let me illustrate the unconscious wrong an honest boy did his employer. It was in September, the height of the busy season, and a sixteen -year-old boy had obtained a position s asaistant entry clerk, his duty being to aid in charging and ship- ping goods. Bat et week had he beenOt hie post. Saturday ,dame, audit was the first he had ever worked. It came to him like a shook, particularly as hie " nine," for which he pitched, was to play a " crack" team from an adjoining town. Membership of this club he had not thought of giving up. After dinner his employer was told df his. desire to leave work about two o'clock. "Weil, try boy, there are those bills to be charged." He hadn't thought of them, and his heart sank. His club would be beaten, and all on account of his absence; so he mustered up courage. " But, sir, I promis- ed the boys I'd be there, and they'll be beaten sure if I don't pitch." The response citroe quickly: " You can go, but don't let' it occur again." That night at supper, flushed with victory -for they had won a close game -this boy told hie father of the conversation and the result, adding, "He's a bully man, father !" After a few moments thought this wise and sometimes severe parent said, "My son, had I a, clerk in your position who made such a request, involving leaving work undone he was paid to perform, I should have told him to get out and take up base ball as a means of livelihood. You are paid $6 for a week's work, and before the first week is finished Children Cry for Back on the farm again ! The years I spent In city life were more than banishment; They filled my soul with anxious.cares, unrest For those my children, loved and cherished best e Shut out from nature, with no healthful play On grassy lawns as day -succeeded day, No fruits or flowers in easy reach fresh grown, No trees or plants, playgrounds, all their own, On the farm the children know Where the sweetest berries zrow, When the nuts are ripe to fall, Where the apple, large or small, That is mellow, tart or sweet - Good enough for kings to eat; And to see them in the spring, Open-eyed and wondering, As the buds to blossoms grow And their wealth of color show - Then I know how great the charm Childhood finds upon the farm. Ah ! then it is the city seems to me The bane of childhood -life a mockery. In cellars damp,in garrets dark and chill( For childhood these breed only hurnen 111. Back on the farm again! I look around All sights but please, and to my ears no sound, Hareh or discordant. Earth and air and sky, - Unite and blend in perfect harmony. The landscape glows with color, and the trees Wave " palms of joy" in every passing breeze ; And sun and cloud alike their blessings bring A realm my own and 1 the happy king. On the farm all days are blest; Some with toil and sonic with rest ; Always near to nature's heart, She can rarest grace impart. With the dawn the morning light Alwaes shows some new delight, And the noon with radiant face IA a minister of grace, And the day's declining light Welcomes the return of nIght, Birds or boast, or great or entail, Love the farm -God cares for all. Earth has no heaven, but on the farm I see So much of God, in boundless mercy free, So little know of greed and want and sin, My home is here, a castle well walled In. -I. E. Sherman.

If a Southdo n, it must be just - so in the color of the fa e, with the head just of the regulation size, bones small, muzzle black, and it must have all the other points of a typica sheep. The Eng- lish breeder knows t is, 6,nd that kind are selected and placed here the visitor can see them, while the floc from which . they were selected is kepten eotne'other pasture. If per chance the visitorr gets eight of the field sheep on some other pert of the farm, he is told that they are a "It of scabs for butcher stuff." What we desire to ea to our readers is, not that there are no po r sheep in England, for there are,and lots o thennbut that they do not come to this cou try, and that not all of the good sheep in england are as fat as they are seen at the fai a. Some of the im- porters of British ehee import a British shepherd along with th sheep to keep them up to the high conditio Which they have attained in Skillful ban s. Thesineshepherds l know their business, aid they can always be seen feeding the sheep little of this and a little of that, never in large quantities, but often. The British sheep have come to stay, and more of them are Coming ; and they will still come as long as there is any room for improvement in the American sheep. We hope the day is not far distant when Ameri- can flocks will no longer need any new blood to improve them, but that good flocks will be seen all over this country as they are seen in England. Mr. Burch says, in the Sheep Breeder, "A fair is a good place to get acquainted with the owners of rams, but not with the rams. Follow them home and see the flock when it is not on dress parade," and see "that you do not buy yourlambs this fall at $5 per pound for tadtow that is only worth ten cents." There ca is be nothing truer than the above. -Montana, Stock Journal. The Brus# Brigade. Do you belong to it? Indeed, do you know what " it " is? :Well, if you don't you ought to, so read this taken from the Wide Awake :- Not long ago I hea d a pother tell her boys that intimate and constant acquaint- ance with brushes went a great way towards making a gentleman. 1 1 The remark struck ne and I asked how many brushes one redid to be familiar with. "Tell her, boys," seid their mother, and the merry fellows shouted !- " One to brush our hair we need, And one to polish our boots, One to clean our nails in eed, And one to dust our as its And one to give our hat , a switching, To make us all look vety bewitching, And that's the song of the Brush Brigade." "Will always twist everything they have to remember into a jingle, and then they don't forget it," said the mother, smiling, as the brigade went off in a vivacious procession to practice on the brushes. 1 "Tramps went out, but gentlemen came back," said the clever ; little mother, when they tante in again, ptesenting each of the brush -improved four 1 with an aeple turn- over for his lunch -box.' " Cleaulinese is next' to godliness, and dirt is an abomination," Said grandmother from her corner, " It runs in the -family," I heard one of the boys say, as they put on their coats. '1 guess Gran brought up her boys to brushes just as mother serves us. Never mind, all her boys are gentlemen clear through, and I s'pcse we'll be the: same if we stick to the brushes." Take the Broad View. "School is a stupid place," said Tom, dolefully, "an endless round of problems and exercises." "Piano practice is stupid work,'1 says his sister Nora, disconsolately. I am' sick of scales and octaves, and five finger exercises." 'A housekeeper's work is never done," sighs the mother of Tom and Nora, laying down her broom to take up her mending basket. "It seems -hard that a woman must give up her girlish freedom and accomplish- ments merely to dari jackets aud wash dishes." "The treadmill of lusiuess is enough to kill a man,says the fat er of Torn and Norm, lugubriously. Acooluats and bills, bills and accounts 1 It's a wonder the monotony doesn't drive me into insanity." Now, as a matter of fact, the lot of this family is no a particnlarly hard one. But -and in this they represent a very large class -they have never learned to take a broad view of life. T to think of his excr stepping stones towar Association of Ideas. "John," said a loving wife, "1 wish you would sing two or three lines of a song for me." "What on earth do you want me to do that for ?" "There is something I want you to bring home, and I've forgotten what it is, but I think I'll remember it if you sing." The good-natured husband complied, and the charming wile said : "1 remember now. It's a file I want." British Sheep as We See Them. We hove for eome time contemplated hav- ing a common sense talk with the reader on the English sheep as they are seen at the fairs, and on the farms of importers. The average fair visitor is of the opinion that all sheep of English origin are like those seen at the fairs and that they are in that fat condition on the pastures of that country. This is a mistake. The British sheep, as seen in his native home, is just as he is seen when bred in this country. If a farm is visited in England where the Shropshire is kept there will be nothing but, Shropshire sheep in the pastures, but while they all look alike, they are far from being fat as they are seen at the fairs. In England when a breeder desires to show his sheep at the fairs, special feeding and care is bestowed upon then) without stint from lambhood to death. They are never allowed to go back to what is termed 'field condition.' There are Fnglish breeders who prepare animals for the American buyer. He wants a fat sheep to show at the fairs in America; the Englishman knows that and prepares the sheep to suit the fancy of the buyer. Importers will not go to the expense of visiting that country and they content themit selves with bringing home something in- ferior to what they have at home. They want something better, and what looks better must be better; at any rate it is better for their purposes than the field sheep would be. There are some points which the importer wants in the sheep, such as Pitcher's Castoria. m has never learned hies 'and problems as an education and to- ward manliness of character. Nora has never learned to think of her scales, and octaves, and five -finger exercises, as the means by which she may become an accom- plished musician, and a Woman of stronger character than she could 'be without some such rigorous discipline. Their mother has never thought of her mehding arid dish- washing as a pert of woman's beat and most blessed work -the making elf home and the shaping of character. Her husband has never thought of his 'Alla and accounts as means toward an honorable independence towards a comfortable provision for his family, and towards filling his place in this world of labor and responsibility. No won- der, therefore, that life and work become, to these short sighted ones, " stupid " and " monotonous." It will pay us all to take the -Christian Standard. Varieties. -There is no use of arguing against obstinacy. If you squeeze a burr it will prick you. --There is one thing a woman can never, do. She �'t make a man tell her where he has been. -Said William to Martha, "13ut you must remember, my dear, that my taste is better than yours." Said Martha to William, ." undoubtedly, when you come to remember that you married me and I married you." -An optimist is a woman witha new sum- mer bonnet.

One of the strangest businesses in ancient Rome is mentioned by Juvenal in his Sa- tires. It consisted of buying houses on fire. The speculator hurried to the:scene attend- ed by slaves carrying bags of money, and others carrying tools, judged the chances of salvage, and made a bid to the distracted houseowner, who was glad to accept any- thing as a rule. The bargain struck in all haste, this earliest of fire -assurers set his slaves to work and secured what he could. Sometimes he even put out the flames and so made a coup. It was a business for capital- ists, but the poorest who speculated in a small way could hardly lose if he had pres- ence of mind enough to grasp the chances.

You seem to be in a hurry this enornieg ? Anything 'wrong ? Well yes? Sick I enppose ? No it is worse, I'm lost, and as angry as the duce. Ba4 enough? How came you to get into that dilemma. You see that watch?. I have been down the Country for some time on business, and my watch went astray ; It never failed the before, and I am carrying it nove eight years," Iltook it to six of the shining Jew- elry stores of the town, where I stopped, but none of them ecerned to detect what was the matter, I kept agoing to them until I was told, myself and watch, were nuisance around there. I got a chance to come home for a few days, and I was not going to lose it either. " Vfiliere are you going to get it re- paired today?" I I am going straight to Papst's jewelry store Sea - forth, and if I don't get her fixed there, I am satisfied then that what those other fellows told me,that it is an American watch. Med I consider Papst a magical workman on American or any other watch. He set ehis watch right for nee years- ago, and it gave me perfect satisfaction, but I believe them other duffers has nearly spoiled her now?. My friend, I can tell you, that when my watch is wrong I am wrong, when she is right I am right, and I am going to have her right too, soon as I get to Seaforth, I know Papst can fix her, so good bye old fellow.
