OLD TIMES.
There are no days like the good old
days—
The days when we were youthful!
When humankind were pure of mind
And speech and deeds were truthful;
Before a love for sordid gold
Because man’s ruling passion,
And before each danie ami maid became
Slaves to the tyrant fashion.
There are no girls like the good old girls—
Against the world I’d stake 'em!
As buxom ami smart and clean of heart
As the Lord knew how to make ’em!
They were rich in spirit aud common
sense,
A pie.y all-supportin’;
They could bake and brew, and had
taught school, too,
And they made the likeliest courtiu*!
There are no boys like the good old
boys—
When we were boys together!
When the grass was sweet to the brown
bare feet
That dimpled the laughing heather;
When the pewee sung to the summer
dun a
Of the bee In the willowy clover,
Or down by the mill the whip-poor-will
Echoed bis uigbt song over.
There is no love like the good old love—
The love that mother gave us!
We sre old. o!d men, yet we pine again
For that precious grace God guve us!
Ho we dream ami dream of the good old
times.
And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder,
As those dear old dreams bring soothiug
gleams
Of heaven away off yonder.

John Curzon, a Polish mechanic, who
was presented with a gold medal for
nis Inventions, performed a most extra
ordinary thing when he succeeded in
manufacturing a complete watch In the
space of eight hours, and from mater
ials on which another watchmaker
would have looked with contempt.
It appears that the Czar of Russia,
hearing oi the marvelous Inventive
genius of Curzon, determined to put
him to the test, and forwarded him a
box containing a few copper nails, sotne
wood chippings, a piece of broken glass,
an old cracked china cup, some wire,
and a few cribbage board pegs, with a
request that he should transform them
into a timepiece.
Nothing daunted, ajid perceiving a
golden opportunity of winning favor at
the court, Curzon set about Ills task
witli enthusiasm, and in the almost In
credibly short space of eight hours, bad
despatched a wonderfully constructed
watch to the Czar, who was so sur
prised and delighted at the work that
he sent for the maker, conferred upon
him several distinctions, and granted
him a pension.
Tlie case of the watch was made of
china, while the works were simply
composed of the odds and ends accom
panying the old cup. Not only did it
keep good time, out only required wind
ing once every three or four days. This
remarkable watch Is believed to be still
in the possession of the Russian family.
