The Home of England.
It Is very delightful to find one's self in
one of these English country residences.
The house is commonly old, and has a his
tory. It is oftentimes itself a record, like
that old farmhouse my friend John Bel
lows wrote to me about, which chronicled
half a dozen reigns by various architec
tural mark! as exactly as if it had becu an
official register. "The stately homes of
England, ' as we see them at Wilton and
liimgford castle, are not more admirable
in their splendor than "the blessed homes
in England" in their modest beauty.
Everywhere one may see here old parson
ages by the side of ivy-mantled churches,
and the comfortable mansions where geu
erations of country squires have lived in
peace, while their sons have gone forth to
tight England's battles and carry her Hags
of war and commerce nil over the world.
We in America can hardly tic said to have
such a possession as a family home. We
encamp not under canvas, but in fabrics
of wood or more lasting material, which
are pulled down after a brief occupancy
by the builders, and possibly their chii

dwellers in them would not recogniz

as guide or burden bearer to travelers;
there may also be dammar and bees

for food (a dainty snake or nimble

of the father and housemother. .Should
this queer endowment fund be satis
factorily large, neighbors are called to

lacking
is truth
What is
and confidence,
If there were absolute truth
on the one hand and absolute
confidence on the other, it
wouldn't be necessary for the
makers of Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy to back up a plain
statement of fact by a $500
guarantee.
They say " If wc can't
cure you (make it personal,
please,) of catarrh in the head,
in any form or stage, we'll pay
you $500 for your trouble in
making the trial."
"An advertising fake," you
say.
Funny, isn't it, how some
people prefer sickness to
health when the rcmotly is
positive and the guarantee
ibsohtte.
Wise men don't put vtomy
back of " fakes."
And " faking " doesn't pay.

the indignant tourists, "is this basin

above the level of tho sea." "Ho it is,
gents," replied liarabbas, the host, for it
r xs he. "so it is: above the level of the
Dead Sea. That's nigh about 1.400 feet
lower than tlie bottom of the ocean, I
reckon." And when tlie tourists Uiotujnl
upon their homo In the CaUkills which
they had abandoned In search of summer
board they lifted up their voices and wept,
whereupon Barabbas charged them extra
