BOYS AS FABMEB&
A Capital Sliotch of Old Boys and
Young Boys
There are so many bright spots iu
the life of a farm-boy, thut 1 some
times think I should like to live the
life over again; I should almost be
willing to be a girl it it were not for
the chores. There is great comfort to
a boy in the amount of work he can
get lid of doing. Tt is sometimes as
tonishing to see how slow he can go
on au errand, ho who leads the school
in a race. The world is new and in
teresting to him, and there is so much
to take his attention off when he is
sent to do anything. Perhaps he
couldn’t explain himself, why, when
he was sent to the neighbor's after
yeast, he stops to stono the frogs ; ho
is not exactly cruel, but he wants to
see if ho can’t hit ’em. No other Jiv
ing thing can go so slow ns a boy sent
on an orrand. His legs seem to be
dead, unless he happens to spy a wood
chuck in an adjoining lot, when ho
gives chaso to it like a deer ; and it is
a curious fact about boys, thut two
will be a groat deal slower in doing
any thing than one, and the more you
have to help ou a piece of work tho
loss accomplished. Boys have a pow
er iu helping each other to do nothing;
and they are so innocent about it and
unconscious. ‘ I went as quick as ev
er 1 could,” says one boy, wlieu bis
father asks him why lie didn’t stay all :
night, when he lias been absent throe |
hours on a ten minuto errand. Tho
sarcasm has no effect on tho boy. |
Goiug after cows was a serious ;
tiling iu my day. I bad to climb up
a hill which was covered with wild
strawberries in tho season. Could any j
boy pass those berries ? And then in
tho fragrant hill-pasturo, there woro
beds of u inter-green with red berries,
tufts of columbino, roots of sassafras
to be dug, and dozens of other things
good to eat or to smell, which I could
notresist. It sometimes even lay in my
way to climb a tree to look for a crow’s
nest, or to swing iu the top, or to seo
tho steeple of the villago church. It
became very important sometimes for
me to seo tho steeple; and in tho
midst of my investigations tho tin horn
would blow a greut blast from tlie
farm-house, which would send a cold
chill down my back in tho hottest day.
I knew what it meant. It had a
frightfully impatient quaver in it, not
at all like the sweet iioto that called
us to dinner from the hay-field. “Why
on eai th doesn’t that boy come homeV
It is almost dark and the cows ain’t
milked yet!” And that was tho time
tho cows had to start into a brisk pace
and make up for lost time. 1 wonder
if any boy ever drove tho cows homo
late, who did not say that the cows
were at the further end of the pasture,
and that “Old Brindle was hidden in
tho woods, and lie couldn't find her
for ever so long ?” Tho briudlo cow
is tho boy’s scapegoat many a timo.
No other boy knows how to appre
ciate a holiday as the farm-boy does ;
and his best ones aro of a peculiar
kind. Going fishing is, of course, one
sort. Tho excitement of rigging up
the tackle, digging tho bait, and the
anticipation of great luck, tlicso are
pure pleasures, enjoyed because they
are rare. Beys who can go a fishing
anytime care but little for it. Tramp
ing all day through brush and brier,
fighting flies and musquitoes, and
branches that tangle tho lino, and
snags that break the hook, and return
ing home late and hungry, with wet
feet and a string of speekied trout on
a willow twig, and have the family
crowd out at the kitchen door to look
at ’em aud say, “Pretty well done for
you, bub, did you catch that big one
yourself "r” This is also pure happi
ness, flic like of which the boy w ill
never have again ; net if lie hi conies
a selectman aud deacon, and to “keep
store.’
Hut the holidays I recall wifi de
light wore the two days in spring and
full, when we wont to the distant pas
ture land, in a neighboring town, may
bo to drivo thither the young cat
tle and colts, and to bring them back
again. It was a wild and rocky up
land whore our great pasture was, and
many miles from home, the road to it
running by a brawling river, and up a
dashing brooksido among tho hills.
What a day’s adventure it was ! It
was like a journey to Europe. The
night before I could scarcely sloep for
thinking about getting mo up at suu
lise that morning. T lie breakfast
was eaten, tho lucheon packed in a
large basket.
I wish tho journey would never eud;
but at last, near noon, we reached
tlie pasture and turned in the herd ;
and, after making the tour of the lots
so make sure theie axe no breaks in
tho fences, we take our luncheon from
the wagon and cat under the troes by
he spring. This is the supi-eme mo
ment of the day. This is the way to
rve-; il._ :: -like the-
itolnnson, aud all the rest of my de
lightful acquaintances in romance.—
Baked beans, rye and Indian bread
(moist, remember), doughnuts and
cheese, pie and root boer. What lieh
liess ! You may live to dine at l>ol
mouico’s or at Philippe's in the rue
Montorguell in Paris, tvimro the good
old Thacker)- used to eat as good a
dinner as anybody, but you will get
there neither doughnuts, nor pie, nor
loot beer, nor anything so good as
(hat luncheon ut noon in tho old pas
ture, hxgh among the Massachusetts
hd s ! Nor will you ever, if you live
to be the oldest boy in the world, have
any holiday equal to the one I have
described. But 1 have always regret
ted that I did not take a fishline, just
to throw ’ m the brook as I pr iSbt -d ]
i.now there were trout there.—lo. 1)

we will state that tbe roaiu spring is pro
nounced by competent judges to be the
finest Chalybeate Spring in the United States
issuing from the North side of Dine Moun
tain, and discharging 8,600 gallons per hour.
It is remarkable for the cures it bus effected.
We have three other Springs—/Sulphur,
J/agnesia and Freeßtone—the whole embra
cing a most valuable combination of miner
al waters. The place is baudsomely lighted
with gas.
A’very species of innocent amusement will
be piovided, among which is a fine

that we think will give most pleasure, the is
large, new

feet wide, and a depth to be regulated by the

plenty of dressing looms.
A Beautiful, Level Drive
constructed, along the summit of the moun

ford pleasure to those who hue that exercise.
A Livery &r.abla on the place will be pre-*

A line of Hacks running regularly from
Geneva, and direct transportation to the

every train.
The Table will be supblied with the best

view of the stringency of the times, he has
determined to reduce the price of board to
$35 00 per mouth. Washing done at rea
sonable and uniform la tea.
While every amurement will be provided
for those in health, the kindest attention will
be paid to invalids.
