For two years, from 1812 to 1814 the treasure of all the banks of the Forest City lay in the parlor of the Marrett house in &tandish village, and as evidence of the fact to-day upon the parlor door can be seen the huge lock which was placed there nearly a cen tury ago to add safeguard to the treasure. During the war of 1812 the bankers of Portland thought their treasure was in danger of being looted by the Brit ish forces, and in casting about for a safe place their choice fell upon the of ally m patent fees, or the reve- postal service, are not known as “internal reve When Men Wore Wigs, When they begin to talk about tariff it is interesting to look back over the pages of hist y and see what .things were at one time considered necessities. In the time of Sir William Pitt it was considered highly improper for a man to appear without his hair powdered, so Pitt put a tax on the powder, the guinea pig tax as it was called. In consequence, the Whigs cut off their queues and only men servants were allowed hair powder. It was finally so unremunerative that the tax Was re moved. Duty. The greatest thing in the world, the inspiration of life, the holiest and noblest of all words, is Duty It is obedience, glad and eager, to the highest law that makes man godlike.

LOOSE LEAF Order Holders. LEDGERS, Sheet PEMBROKE STATIONERY CO., Salt Lake City. Love. Love is the only bowon life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and evening star. It shines on the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art; inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher. It is the air and light of every heart; builder of every home; kindler of every fire on the hearth; it was thefirst dress of immortality. It fills the world with melody, for music is the voice of love. Love is the magician, the enchanter that changes worthless things to joy, and makes right royal queens and kings of common clay. It is the perfume of that wonderful flower, the heart, and without that sacred pas sion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it—earth is heaven and we are gods.—Robert G.
