"My pons,"' said an old man on his
death bed, "1 have had ?. great deal of
trouble in my life, hut mo?t of it never
happened.'' How many of us who hair
arrived at the pft i' d of middle life can
not look ba"k through many experience?
and make the -ax.e c mfos-sion ':
" e tiuvo met v.i'b grfat d.lbeuitief :
we have had our troubles; we have felt
our weakness v hen we came upon ob
stacles in our way ; we have been puz.lid
nnd p"rp!ex. d as to what was b:8t;we
have sull'red from many doubt? and
fetrs when fjuestions of right and wrong
have exacted our decision : we have
been involved in tho evils which other.'
have done acd struggled to free otr
se! ves ; we have been disappointed and
felt, for the time being, that all was lost ;
we have come to many new experiences
with fear and trembling; Dut in all these
things how often it has proved true that
when we have arrived at the plee where
the trouble was supposed to be, it was
not there, and indeed it was not any
where except in us ! The lions of danger
which we saw in our pathway were the
mere images of our woakr.es?, or fear,
or want of faith in bud, or jack of
knowledge; or if they were in any ca-e
lions of real d llk-uity and evil to u-.
when they reached us they were securely
chained and could not harm us ! ' . (

on which stands a polished piintb,
bearing on one side the name, Northrop,

polished ornamented die, having in
scribed on it the names of Mr Northrop
and his wife in raised letters, and the
dates of thrir birth. The whole is sur
mount' ii by a cap of pretty design. The

which tie .Stratford concern has the

A L1NF. FROM THE POET OF SHILOH.
This is the year and fall when politic
ians have it "n!p and tuck." The silver
advocate il jors the gold man and the gold
man floors, the Silverman. But The Bee
keeps oh the ven "tenor of its way"
without reg trd to the squabbles of demo
crats, republicans or popocrats. There
seems to be a current of feeling to "trust
in God and keep your powder dry. The
"Boy Orator"' is more anxious than we
are about his election, and McKinlev feels
assured that he will succeed the success
ful President Cltveiand. Well, let the
political pot boil, who cares, unless the
Victuals are spoiled r
The last thunder storm knocked poli
tics -higher than a kite." over here, and
Mrs -John Donlan forgot for a time all
about the late controversy In Gray's
Plain. The house was filled with smoke
and smelt of that suipbur that we may
smell in the next world unless we "vote
right."
We miss the ecstatic songs of the robin
and all the summer birds that gave us
their love songs so early in the morning.
Now comes .'ack Frost with his nipping
wings and cuts down the teDdcr llowers
and reminds us that we must seek winter
iu rter.. The e-' t . ;i:p unin'urei
-t;d vr -hjuM t; .ef u". the Heaven
ly Father. iiie t i.ti fringed ye:.ti'n.the
g-M(ie;i rod the n -dy rijwers "linger
in the lap ot summer." and the thousand
different asters beautifying our fields and
roadways. There i always something
in Nature to cause us to worship the great
creator, the "naked woods'" is beautiful,
the glistening star-, the round earth,
"and ail that dwell therein."
Speaking of roadways, and dropping
from fancy to facts, we wish to say a
word in praise of the excellent work that
John Kane ha- doib this season upon
:hem. Th. r.ew road to Botsford, from
F.llen Sherman's is better this season than
a macadam ro-id. The removal of the
bad boulder- and the general work is
mo-t satisfactory to . very one who trav
els this entrancing drive through the
woods. You will oi:. ti start a partridge
to whirring through the woods or see a
gray squirrel cutting across the road.
A fox now hisd then, is seen, perhaps
"first cousin" to the i .vo grays the sure
shot of the oid hunter who killed two
last Sunday in Half Way Kiver. The
hounds invitation was irresistable. Ap
ple; are getting to be a nuisance, like the
Texas lly. but cattle don't think so. ,G.
