Day by day this old man must live on, forcing the life he is weary of; day by day he must seck the food that keeps the spark alight, though the task be drudgery.

This is saying a good deal when it is con sidered that some of the very best men of this class in the entire world have heen there. ) At the banquet to the visiting} militia folks in the New York building, Gov. Hay in his little! speech of weicome explained how his military officers had “called” him from time to cause he was “new” and not “1 know about such things,” said Gen. Stewart; “I have ‘called’| many a governor. You simply have; to do it. If you don't, the gover-| nors will ‘call’ you. Now, for in-| stance, when Gov.

Fire leaped from the old Quaker's efes. No church for him that day. He looked at his clothing and shoes. He looked at the cow. Then at the milk on the ground.
