It is certainly one of the hand- somest pictures we have seen for many a day.

THE man who knowingly eats eleo does it with "long teeth,'* with the feeling that he is not quite sure whether he can stand it or not, and with the conclusion that It is really not so bad as he thought, but tbat he does not want auy more. He says to himself "Well, If they want to cook with, it, use it iu pie crust, butter beefsteak with it, ahd do that sort of ihing, let them, but no more on bread 'for Joseph." Many a man has said tbat he would rather eat It than poor butter, and yet we all eat poor butter occasionally, and in our hearts a polo gize for the butter being poor and still eat It. It depends, however, how poor It is. We never encountered butter on a decent table that we would prefer olea to. The man who is cheated Into eating Imitation butter is no judge of his own sentiments. It is the man that eats it knowingly that does not testify that he likes It.--American Dairyman. NEW Year's day, the day on which we all make our good resolutions and lay our plans for the coming year, has passed, and we are speeding along Into the year 1887, The past year has brought many changes, in McHenry. We have all had our joys and sorrows, our seasons of prosperity and reverses, but, withall, it has been a good year; good for tbe farmer and geod for tbe merchant. What the present year may bring forth none can tell. Ere another new year dawns many of us may bare gone to our last rest, and others will be filling the places we now occupy. Tbe future, no man can tell, but let us try during the new iyear upon which we are entering to live right, aud work together as one family for the good of each other and our town. Cast aside with the old year all tbe little petty trifles that but aggra­ vate and stir up strife among us, and start in on 1887 holding no 111 will towards oar neighbors, and let us see if we cannot live out the year la peace and harmony.

Theii is evidence tbat tbe use of certain kind of carriages dates from a very remote antiquity. When Pharaoh advanced Joseph to the second place In Egypt, "he made him ride in the second chariot which he had and later, Joseph, by the command of the king sent wagons out of the land of Egypt to convey Jacob and my mother *)as been afflicted with Bronchitis for apout 20 years, and very bad at times. She is using JMso's Cure for Con­ sumption, and it gives her more relief than anything she had ever taken. J. H. CARLETON. Unlon"Centre, Ills., March 8,1885. his whole family to the land of his adoptlou. Thus at this early period there were two distinct types of carriage In use among the civilized in­ habitants of Egypt -- a country which from its level character presented facilities for the developeinent of this species of conveyance. Tbe use of chariots in Egypt and among the early nations generally was reserved for rulers and warlike leaders. It was among the Romans that the use of carriages as a private convey, ance was first established, and with that people oarrlagea-attained great variety of torm as well as richness of ornamentation. At all times tbe em ployment of carriages depended on the oondition of the roads over which tbey had to be driven, and the estab­ lishment of good roads, such as the Applan Way. constructed 331 B. C. and others, greatly facilitated tbe de- velopement of carriage traveling among the Romans. In Rome itself, and probably also In other towns, It was necessary to restrict traveling in carriages to a few persons of hitch rank, owing te the narrowMOia . aud crowded state of the streets* - The Northern and Southern soldiers In the a Jtual soldierly qualities of the people of tbe two sections there Is probably but little difference. All the talk about the impetuosity, reckless daring, and joy of battle which Is said to characterize the South in contrast wltk the North U mere twaddle The charge at Mission Ridge, when tbe army of Grant outran his orders and went to the summit instead of en trenching at the foot of the slope, was the great miracle of Impetuosity of the whole war. On tbe other hand, the claim of greater staunchness, of stub­ born bulldog grip, on the part of the North is equally nonsensical. Peters burg is an eternal immument of tbe power of the South to stand punish ment. Tbe man who could boast of the superior staying power of the North with the facts of that marvel­ ous defense before him exceeds in assurance the traditional Government mule. The truth would seem to be that in mere soldierly qualities the men of the two sections are very fairly balanced. Each has certain advantages t?h!ch &rs coiiBlerhalanced by certain deficiencies. The South has a better general preparation for oamp-llfe while the North has more ingenuity aud is better able to supply deficien­ cies of equipment and the like. Tbe North has more intelligence, but tbe South has more homogeneity. The Southern soldier can subsist on less an the Northern volunteer will more in­ telligently busbaud his resources and secure himself against disease. In short, we believe that the excellencies and pefects of a suddenly recruited army drawn from each section for ser­ vice against a common enemy are so evenly balanced that no unprejudiced observer could find ground on which to base an intelligent preference.--A Union Veteran in Our Continent, : EDITOBT PLAIKDEALERMr. J.

We too, wish them a fair voyage and much of life's joys. The other morning when all nature was sparkling in the sun's early rays, almost wished, as I walked along, that bonny spring time would come and transform every snowftake la to a blossom: tbat the river would break Its icy chains to foam and ripple thor' the mossy banks; that all the merry songsters would return trom their southern home and make the whole world glad. It wearies one so, this vast expanse of jinow and frost. Yet how many of these happy months does Father Time quietly steal from us aod we look back and long for these very hours. Then I remembered that we bad hardly turned the front pages of the ne^r year and suddenly a wintry blast wafted in my path A fluttering bit of paper on which was the follow­ ing: (Is it not pretty?) "O glad new year, a rose new- blown, That not one sullying touch Has known' •Time's snow white blossom, c>u» it be The comrann iatc i8 waiting thee? Must tliou. like all tiie vanished years, | |lte tossed with winds and drenched With -- tear*, As one t>v one the white leaves fell, To lie in liusl? Oh! i» this all? .Nay, something must endure, I will The fragrance from those leaves distil>| And, ere it has forever ilown, Thy heavoaly sweetness make my own. When my gallant ship, which has been so long out at sea, shall at last come into harbor all loaded with gold and silver dollars, do you know what I shall have after I, with all my dear friends, have seen each of these beauti- tul states and I have builded me a borne on the shore of a wild, pictur­ esque, dashing lake? It will be a Toboggan Slide. I thought the other day when i saw one for the first time, bow grand it would be to glide down that ice. covered chute. It would be almost as glorious as flying up In the air in a balloon and leaving all care far below; or riding on a limited express where there was no engine, no noth tog to disturb your raverie ; or rolling around the rink on "little wagons" run by cable. How much I regretted that 1 could not gratify tny| desire, for 1 was curious to know if I would shut my eyes aud long for the end, in tbe mean time lose my grip to my senses aud to tbe sled; or would I wait until all was over and then get excited. But I was too late, the slide was deserted; this sun had set In a* golden bank of clouds and my train was nearlng the whistling post. Perhaps when I haye tried the apparently Invigorating, joy­ ful sport that 'twill banish all the pleasure there seems to be in Tobog­ ganing--the latest American erase. , AUCTION SALE.
