When 10, 6 7,8 drinks beer, or brandy,
They say that he is “drunk” or‘light,”
Or any name that comes in handy
To designate his dreadful plight.
But when an over-dose of wine or whisky
Is taken by a quiet little lady,—
To call it aught but whole, would be too
risky,
And thus, her friends combine to keep
it shady.
She merely takes a 4 2, 3 for illness
Os any stimulant that comes most near,
From any motive, saving only “willness”
From inclination? Never, oh, dear!
dear!
“What’s in a name?” Con-sid-er-a-bly,

While one’s a “drunkard,” one is with

Well, on the picture let us draw the cur

(To Annie Laurie, with regards.)
With passion for his art,
Deep burning in his heart,
He leaves his boyhood home to seek for
fame awhile, and dwell
Where falls the world’s rough hand,
Stern as a steel-wrought band,
On the city’s poor and struggling as of
old on Ishmael.
His room is bare and drear,
But he is happy here—
Happy to-night to all success first since
the wintry morn—
Yet longingly he dreams
Os where—how far it seemsl—
The mighty Mississippi laves the land
where he was horn.
There, in a cottage low;
Beside the river’s flow,
A woman waits and watches within the
twilight dim,
And as the waning light
Fades softly into night,
One sweet face will be brighter to have
glad news of him.
Then with his pencil true—
Better he never drew—
He limns with tender touches a scene that
memory gives,
‘Mid evening shadows all
Unheeded in their fall.
And sends this dainty Valentine to show
that love still lives.

Poor Towser, hungry grown,
Slunk off, dismayed, no one knows where,
With neither crust nor bone.
How like the dog mankind appears,
When hope fills head and heart,
No thought is given to useless fears —
Anticipates no smart,
But when adversity and want
Would of us make a prey,
How oft, like Towser—hungry, gaunt —
We turn and run away.

With visor close drawn down before:

The battle waged they with stout hearts,
Fighting with fiercely straining bows
Or fine-edged sword or light flung dart.

THE AMERICAN FARMER.
ESTABLISHED IN 1819.
The Oldest Agricultural Journal in
America,
Published at 1729 N, Y. Ave.,
WASHINGTON, D. C.
PRICE ONLY 25 CENTS A YEAR.
Able, Original, Plain.
Practical, Progressive,
Cheap.
THE AMERICAN FARMER
was started at Baltimore in 1819, and was
the first Agricultural Journal established
this side the Atlantic. It has now had a
continuous and successful existence for
more than 77 years.
Five years ago it was removed to Wash
ington, D. C., that it might be nearer the
rich sources of practical information in
the United States Department of Agricul
ture, and the fountain of other matters of
deepest interest to every farmer in the
United States.
It has facilities in this way not enjoyed
by any other Agricultural paper in the
country.
CHARACTER OF THE
PAPER.
THE AMERICAN FARMER
is a large eight-page journal, with 56
columns of reading matter of the highest
class, ably written and prepared by men
of ability, and is profusely illustrated.
THERE IS NOTHING CHEAP
ABOUT IT BUT THE PRICE.
It is strictly National in its aims, and
devoted to the interests of every man in
the United States who makes his living
from the soil. It firmly believes that every
dollar our people pay for agricultural pro
ducts should be retained at home and put
into the pockets of. our own producers.
Further than this it has absolutely noth
ing to do with politics.
It firmly believes that the farmers
strongly need just such an advocate and
champion at the Seat of Government.
THE AMERICAN FARMER
takes note of everything of interest in
every department of farming from sub
tropical fruit growing in Florida and
California to potatoes in Maine, and sugar
beets in North Dakota.
Published on the Ist of every month.
PRICE ONLY 25 CENTS A YEAR.
The cheapest farming papar in America.
