A country newspaper speaks
of man who always paid for his
piper a year in advance. Asa
reward he was never sick in his
life, never had a coi n on his toes,
or toothache, his potatoes never
rot, the fi ost never kills his pears,
His babies never cry at night, and
his wif.j never scolds, and he has
succeeded in serving three terms
on te school board without be
ing criticized. Wo do not know
whether such happy results
would follow paid-up subscribers
to this paper or not, but it would
not do any harm to try it,
