STEEL A YEAR AGO.
If we could only look ahead
And know what is to be—
But that has been so often said
By those too blind to see.
To-day I git and mourn my lot
And murmur sad and low:
“If I had only gone and bought
Steel stock a year ago!”
There is a house upon a hill
That long has pleased my eye—
Another’s master up there still,
And I pay rant and sigh!
Oh, mine's a bitter, bitter cup,
What joy would claim me, though,
If I had only loaded up
With Steel a year ago.
I long bave wished to go and Raze
On scenes in other lands,
To stroll beside Italian bays
And bask on Grecian strands;
I might to-day be on my way
Past groves where olives grow
And bandits hide, if only I'd
Bought 8teel a year ago.
How pleasing it would be to turn
From daily toil, received
By people who at present spurn
My hand—to be relieved
Of all the cares I long have sought
To push aside—and, oh,
This all might be if I had bought
Up Steel a year ago!
If we might look ahead—but pshaw!
T’ll not sit down and pine;
There still are lessons I may draw
From former deals of mine;
I'll bet that Steel to-day would lie
Inactive far below
The price I got it at if I
Had plunged a year ago.

WITH APOLOGIES.
Breathes there a man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself has said,
“My trade of late is getting bad,
I'll try another two-inch ad.”
If such there be, go mark him well,
For him no bank account shall swell,
No angel watch the golden stair
To welcome home a millionaire.
The man who never asks for trade,
By classified lines or ad. displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly gain,
And patroaage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly, friends, let no rude sound
Disturb his solitude profound ;
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes.
And when he dies go plant him deep,
That naught may break his dreamless
sleep,
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loved so well.
And that the world may know its loss,
Place on his grave a wreath of moss,
And on a stone above, “Here lies
A Man who wouldn’t advertise.”
—Ex.
They Have Some Big Liars Out
West.
The Carleton (Neb.) Leader says:
“A certain man not far from Carleton
made the assertion the other day that
his brother put up a building in Chi-
cago, and used seven earloads of nails
to nail the second floor down. Seven
carloads of eight penny nails amount
to 42,000,000 nails, and would be enough
for 16,800,000 feet of 4-inch flooring, and
would cover 385 acres.

Dream Brings Good Luek.
Four years ago in a dream Andrew
Sabel, a German lad of 16, employed in
the Keystone flour mill, in Nanticoke,
Luzerne ccunty, saw a machine by
which impuritiex could be removed
from grain before it was ground. So
impressed was he that he told his
friends he was sure such a machine
could be invented, and he declared
that he would try to invent it. He
worked upon it, and in September la-t
reeeived a patent for a machine like
that of his dream. This week he re-
ceived an offer of $10,000 for the patent
right, and is now considering the offer.
Ate 73 Buckwheats.
What is undoubtedly the long dis-
tance record in the buckwheat cake-
eating linejis held by Assistant Post-
master Joseph L.§Roberts, Sharon, Pa.,
who won by one cake in a contest re-
cently conducted under the auspices of
Dr. 8. 8. Gilberts, defeating Paul Gil-
bert, secretary of the York (Pa.) Wall
Paper Company.ifHis record was 73,
while Gilbert was able to stow away
only 72. The contest was held at Dr.
Gilbert’s home, and it kept two cooks
busyipreparing the cakes. Dr. Gilbert
dropped out of the contest after he had
eaten forty-eight, and his son, Joseph,
fainted when he tackled No. 50. This
left but the two contestants, and the
tournament ended as stated. The
cake, a big prize, was awarded to Rob-
ert.
A Crooked Crook.
There was a crooked man,
And he swung a crooked deal,
And made a crooked million
By a crooked little steal ;
Then he took a crooked house
In a crooked thoroughfare,
And his crooked neighbors swore
That this crooked man was square;
So he hired a crooked pew
In a erooked little kirk,
And he erooked his little knees,
And got in his crooked work.
—Pack.
THE DAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Twas the day before Christmds, and all
through the place
There was racket and trouble—a hor-
rible case;
Little Willie had found where the rais-
ins were hid,
And he stuffed himself full to the ton-
eile, he did!
Little Dairy discovered high up on a
shelf
A dollie that she was to have for her-
self;
When mamma found out she at once
took the doll
To be sent to the store whence it came,
and a squall
That was heartfeit and piercing went
up from the child,
Who rushed through the house with ap-
peals that were wild.
Making promises never to snoop any
more
If the dolly were not taken back to the
store.
The grocer’s boy mixed up his orders
and brought
About forty-five things that nobody had
bought,
While he failed to deliver the goods
that were wanted—
Poor mother by all kinds of trouble was
haunted.
A splendid gift came from a far-away
friend,
For whom there was not a thing ready
to send,
The present intended for father had
not
Been bought, for some reason—some-.
body forgot.
The dish rhe intended to give to Aunt
Sue
Was knocked from the table and brok-
en in two!
There was whooping and howling and
trouble all day,
And thirty times mother turned sadly
to say:
“If they'd keep the schools open to-day
and to-night,
The world perhaps still would be lovely
and bright.”
—J.E. Kiser,in Chicago Record-Herald.
* BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
“DeWitt’s is the only genuine Witch
Hazel Salve” writes J. L. Tucker, of
Centre, Ala. “I have used it in my
family for Piles, Cuts and Burns for
years and can recommend it to be the
best Salve on the market. Every fam-
ily should keep it, as it is an invaluable
household remedy, and should always
be kept on hand for immediate use.”
Mrs. Samuel! Gage, of North Bush, N
Y. says: “I had a fever sore on my
ankle for twelve years that the doctors
could not cure. All salves and blood
remedies proved worthless. I could
not walk for over two years. Finally I
was persuaded to try DeWitt’s Witch
Hazel Salve, which has completely
cured me. It iz a wonderful relief.”

John Lochrie in Lueck.
John Lochrie was recently informed
that an oil well sunk by the Westmore-
land-Coalinga Oil Company in Fresno
county, California, in which he is fi-
nancisally interested, is producing 250
barrels of oil per day. This is the
company’s second well, and the petro-
leum is of excellent quality.
The Westmoreland-Coalinga Oil
Company was chartered under Penn-
sylvania laws, last May, and is com-
posed of Greensburg capitalists, with
Mr. Lochrie, who holds more than 2,000
shares of stock in the concern. Over
400 acres of territory are secured by
the company in the Fresno district,and
a third well is being started. Mr.
Lochrie contemplates a trip to Califor-
nia, next month.—Windber Journal.
THE ROOF TREE.
Once on a time a strong man hewed
A roof tree for his little brood;
His sinewy hands its rafters reared,
His swinging ax the forest cleared,
Till orchard-bloom and flelds of loam
Smiled ‘round it, and he called it Home.
And there, for many a happy day,
He heard his children shout at play,
Or watched them, barefoot, wading through
The clovered meadows, steeped in dew;
And, one by one, he saw them fare
Forth from the fold the world to dare.
Then came a time when 'neath the shade
Of arbors that his hands had made,
They laid him in the soft, cool mold,
His labors done, his story teld.
And silence breathed its hush and spell
On that dear place once loved so well.
The roof tree crumbled, spiders wove
Their fairy webs its eaves above;
But yonder, in the world’s wild way,
Those who had loved it in their play,
Stopped oft, through days that care beset,
To name it with their heart’s regret.
A rich man in his halls of pride,
Through many an hour of longing, sighed
For its bright, flowery paths again;
And one who lay in fevered pain
On glory’s field, near;death’s dim brink,
Cried for its sweet, cool springs to drink.
And there was one poor Ishmael,
‘Who, when his ill-starred fortunes fell,
Turned like a hunted dog at bay,
Backward, o’er many a devious way,
To lay him down with death, care free,
Once more within the old roof tree.
—JOHN 8B. MCGROARTY.
