Many young men can Deafly lay by a small amount) from their yearly earnings and nob miss it, and if they did not pay their p10minma in this way to some geed company they would probably spend the money aimlessly and careless- ly and find theursolves at the end of a term of years just a thousand dollats or more p0oree than their more prudent smnpanione, whc, having a certain de- finite nim in life make every stop they take go btkaiglet for the goal they bavo in wi0w, Roots aro doing well and potatoes aro an excellent crop.

Fifteen years ago, it is re- lated, this rook was far out in the lake, and in size was nearly ten times what it is to -day. It was observed to move each spring from tan to fifteen feet, leaving a deep furrow ie the yellow clay et the bottom of the lake. The general opinion among the natives is that the ice, when it breaks up each spring, is piled in tons upon the rook by the north winds, which have a clean sweep over the lake, and thus the rock is driven closer and closer towards the bank, TH COOK'S BEST FRIEND Money to Loan, Money to Loan on Farm Pro- perty at LOTPE,S'T f ,4TES.
