HOMELY PHILOSOPHY.
Tlut lite it t atrain and a (truggle; '*" . rrt arc bom to • world of carei And of all the acurrie* and wo«s and wor- risf. Trt hao a bit more than my share.
It's idle to uy that it'i even. And there't no aucb thing aa cbanep;
Though one haa trouble, another hv douhle; Ose acrapei, for the other to dance.
¦*Si "onie, they whine and they whimpei.- That'i tbe kind tbat will never be miiaed:
For honeat labo; there'a alwaya a neigh¬ bor To lend him a helping fiat.
Thia mnch I have learned for mv comfort:
It • never worih while to abirli; Blow eaat, blow weat, the world waaa beat For the man wbo doea hia work.

Tke Story of ¦ Vermont 5ut;ar Camp.
By E. Elmore HIII.
"S
IHE, a dozen of us, bo;s and giria, are going down Mr. Johnson'H augar camp to-nlgbt to the 'augar- ing off,' snd we want you to go wilb ns."
Thus spoke .Tim Wataon. a hand¬ some, sturdy Green Monntnln boy. ooe brigbt afternoon in March, many Tears ago.
"I'm wllh you. At what time shall we start?" aaked HInion .Tarkson, who Was alwaya ready and wllllug to Joiu In any kind of ajiort.
"About seveu o'clock. That'a as soon as we can get everything ready. We sre going to take father'a two borses. snd Joe Blalsdcll la to hnve tbeir new bay-rack put on a pair of •leda."
"All right," said Jackson. "I'll meet roo at Joe's bouae. I auppoae we shall start from tbere?"
"Yes, and you'd better bring your gnn along. Tbere bag been aome talk about Indiana being aeen lo the woods lately, and although we don't antici¬ pate any trouble, it's just aa well io be prepsred."
The dlatsnce from the little tnwn of
C to the sugar camp was some
twelve miles. At seven o'clock the red-psinted bsy-rack. with Us loud of young men aud maldeus. drawn hy two of the beat horaea In the Klate. Isft tbe bouse of Fanner BlulHilell amid a JInglo uf hells and ahoiits of merriment.
The borses were driven by Simon ffackson, noted for his courage, skill ¦ad prodigious strength. It was about nine o'clock wben be brought bis team up to the camp, situated on the edge or a small clearing lu one of the lai-g- ast rock maple orchards in thut re¬ gion. Old nan Johnson, with bis wife, Betsey, and two grown-up hoys, were waiting In front of the large open tire to give them welcome, aud in a short time tbs horaea were sheltered and the boliteroiiB party went Inaldc tbe rnrnp!* Wben the fun of the evening began.
Hany of our rendpi%. we doiiUI not. bave visited the augar camps of Ver mont and otber Btnlea where the rock napis thrlvei, and watched Ibe sugar Makers ss tbey dipped the ayrup from tbe large, shallow Iron pana nnd poared It lalo moulds from which they ¦bortly took cakes of sugar of all sizes ¦nd shapes, lo the primitive days of Wbicb we apeak, the early dnys of the Dlneteentb ccntur.v. the nppUiiuceH Were meagre. Indeed. The sugnr and •yrup, however, were Juki «» sweet and palatable as now, aud the fuu ns great. But all things must have an end, and at almut eleven o'clock the TOung folk all climbed aboard the roomy hayrack, and wrapped In wolf skins slid blankets, with each particu¬ lar swalB' iSi close proximity to his eboseirtweethrarl, they started home¬ ward.
Nearly bslf tbe distance had been traversed witbout Incideut wbeu the rapid tramp of horses' hoofs tnld the party tbat they were followed. The road was na straight ua the truck of a bullet, and as Juckson glanced behind bim, a (]'jart*r of a mile away, a dnrk patch on the white ground was easily dlscernlUe, sod his sh.irp eyes told felm tbat a band of Indinn wnrrlors .were approaching.
"No use, boys, to try to flght that rrowd; they aie four lo oue; our only bope Is In Ihe s|H'ed of Ihe horses," he ssld. "But bave your weapona ready, and pick off the drst Indian who comeK Within gunshot." Then he grnsjH'd tbe reins more flrmly and the race for life began.
Now |(ie apeed and endurance of the iDld Morgan slock would have an op porlunlly lo show ilself llow those burses ran! Tbey .«eenied to kuow thnt youthful hearts were ui'glug iliein to do their besl. And Jackson's enlm tones, ss he encournKi.d iheui on. iiuide tbem feel tbat a flrm hand gui.led theui.
The men of the party eroiirhed in lb" rear end of the rack. rlHes extended, watching with eagle eyes the ap proaehing savages, ready lo defend their helpless wouien lothelnst hrenlh
"Vfuke every shot .nuui. Imys" snld 8ime. "Tbe heavy Iond is killing the horses at this pace, and we mav hnve to give "em a tight yet "
".*11 right." aUKwer.il Jlui Watson, cheerily. "We are good for elghl of the red dogs, anyway Keep the liorses ou the Jiiiiip llll they ilrop. and tben we'll Hght It out"
The young women. Iliiis f.ir. Imd ¦hown reuiarkable eourag.'. lluu km.I of pluck and benilam which their mothers, twenty yeara before, bud ex¬ hibited when ibi^lr husbands aijil tirothers wer.- hghnns for independ ence. and following ili.- intrepid Elhan Allen, who led the iln-.ti Mouutniu boya in many a daring .linrge to vic¬ tory, .il Ibe ominous woriN of Wnt sou. tiielr cbe<>ks i<h>L on a slinde of pallor, for full reil did th.'y realite tbe cruel fate awaiting them if the savages proved vielorious.
The horses were still runniug at a terrlflc apeed. notwithstanding the besvy load, but thai tniuotis liree.l wns ¦ t Ihe xeullh of iln \n,K,r In those day*. Aa ihey ruahe.l ..a iu the luad denlng race the j:rem white flecks of foam were dashed ou elt h.'i side, to fall on the suow eavere.1 truck, sll. nt wiinesses uf that life giving struggl.'
•Only a mile or two further, boyn:" abouted Jncks.m. as tbe sharp crack of several rifles siuoie uiion ttieir ears.
Tbv bullets were whistling uoplea»- SBily Bear, for the ravages had been slowly gaining; Ibeir |>onles were not so taesTlly weighted as the two Ibur
"Shoot, If ye want to! We'll beat y« yet!"
Things were looking very bad foi our friends In the hayrack, and Jin and Sime, tbe only two men left to bat tie with the Indiana, realized that an] moment a bullet might find Its mnrb In them. The only hope. appnrcDtlv ¦Was In tbe boi-ses. Bnt asslstfince wai nearer than they thought
Only an boi# beforo, a settler, ro turning late from a visit to his traps brought the unwelcome news thai there were Indians lietween the set tlement and Johnson's camp; so iwin ty of tbe hest fighters In the town Ini diately siarted lo meet the yonng peo pie. whom they knew were Unble to lit attacked. And It was well they did.
Jijn had thrown the wolf skins am! blankets over the girls and hlf wounded comrades, nnd was stretcher out full length on the floor of tho rack peppering nwny at their pursuers ns rapidly as he could load. Jackson wat lashing the now faltering horses, and they were making their last gniiid spurt In that terrible race, wheu loud ebouts broke on the crisp night air, and a score of mounted men dashed past tbem on either aide, while theli rifles belched forth the sweetest ninslr thnt ever greeted the ears of luckless mortals.
Those of Ihe savages who were not killed turned their horses heads a'lil endenvoreil to rench the sheltering for¬ est, but seven of the band were left dead or mortally wounded. The rest eacaped. As tlje chnnces of overtaking tho fleeing savages were extremely small, owing to the deep darkness of the wood, the settlers returued to the friends whom their timely arrival hnd iindoubtedly saved from a horrible death, and were met by Jnckson. who remarked lo his characteristic style:
"I'll bnck those horses agiilnKi nny hand of Indian ponies 'twlxt hcie and .Montreal!"
The news of the young folks' mlrnc- ulous escnpe sprend like wild tire throughout Ihe settlement, mid thu fatliera and inothers. especlnlly those whose ilnughtera hnd been partici¬ pants In the exciting race, loudly praised the heroic conduct of Siniou Jackson and the other lioys, blessing the dny that .Moinn horses Hrst saw the sun In the (Ireen Mountain State.
Severnl yenrs nfter this stirring event the wnr of 1812 broke out.

In the Sixteenth Century, when news¬ papers were not and when pamphlets ilenlt more with mntlers of controversy thnu with current events, the news of what was happening in London and llinl which had gradunlly renched the capital from foreign counti'les. circu¬ lated through Ihe rural dlBtrlcts of Kngland in a very cnsual. slow fasb¬ lou.
The chief purveyors and dissemina¬ tors of news -were the peddlers and carriers. It is a mistake to suppose that 300 yenrs ngo there was little or irregular coiumunlcntlon between the capital nnd country towns nnd vll¬ lnges. The country was covered with n network of cairiers' routes. Their carts nud wagons-grent lumbering mat Iilnes-traveled with whnt would be to us nu appalling degree of slow¬ ness, but they went to and fro with grent regularity. The service migbt lie merely a weekly one in mauy placea nr even niiintlily on nnt a few routes, but the carrier went Ins rounds with very fair regularity nnd acted ns the universal newsmonger ns well ns the occnslnnnl letter carrier and the con¬ veyor of gooda of every possible kind. An act of Parllaiiient of l.">34 speaks nf "the pnore carlers repnlryiug weke ly and luonthely to your cltee of l.on- •inn."
An enterprising man. one John Tay¬ lor, cnnipllid Willi much difflculty and Inlinr n klud of carriers' directory which was printed In U'^IT. A copy liea before the present writer. It Is entitled "The Carriers' (^osonio- graphy." nnd the very long title page goes nn to promise a list of luus. etc.. "where Ihe citrrlers. waggoners, foot posts nnd higglers" from nil pnrts of the kingdom were wont to put up. with the days of tiielr einnlug nnd going, nnd much other Information. There were curious differences In Ihe nmount of communicntlon by cnrrler. Thus those from .N'nntwich in Cheshire. Mr. Tnylor records, were to be found at the Axe 111 .Mderiniiiibury on Weduoa dnys, Thursdays, and Krlduys; those frnm Nnneaton. iu Warwickshire, cnme on Friday, but "the cnrrler for Niiliiughiim llnlll liiilge at the i ross Keys iu St. JoliiiK sInet. Ile I'omi'tfl every second Siitiiriliiy.' Similnr dif- fei-euces exisled in llie service of other provinclnl towns. Hut whether he went nnce or twice <ir thrice a week or but ouce or twice a lunuth llie cnrrler wns the chief newsmonger of the dny. The "higglers " were meu iu u sninl ler wny of business thnn the regulnr cnnlers. Tnylor styles them "deml curriers," The name is seldom henrd nnw, bul the higgler of days goue by was il man who owned a horse aud cnrt und Mitnct inies carried goods In n small wny finiii plnce to place, but whose chief occiipnlinu wns the buy¬ ing of poultry nnd dairy pniduce from farnnrs nud cottagers for carriage tn tnwn and the selling to Ills customers lit sniiiU wnn s brought from the shops ill tnwn. The carrier wns pnrveynr of news to the towns nud villages, while the higgler was newsmonger lu ordi¬ nnry to tin; dwellers off tht mnln rnads. to fnrnilinn.-ics nud cottages, Uc l'"oe In Ills "Account ot the Pingue" of "higglers nnd such people as weut tn mill from Lonilnn with provisions" says they were al.so called "hagglers." and often had no cart, but went on hiirselmik. a iiicthod of traveling [ which wns prnbnbly resorted lO for 1 nllier reasnus than poverty. .Vt n | time when the main roads were often | in n IIIIISI deplnrnble coudltlou the by- | riinds nnd couutry Innes were always ivnrs.'. and n mnn going from fnrm lo rnrni nnd frnui hamlet to linmlet could get nlmut inilcli mine con veiiieiilly nnd rapidly on horseback Ihnn when hnnipered with ii cart,
Tlii'sc higglers on hnrselmck cnrrled Ihcir goods in pnnnlers Fuller. In his "Wortliies of Knglnnd." written nbnut tiM' time of the Coiiimonwealth. says: "Dorsers nre peds or pnuniern inrriiHl nn tin- backs nf the hnrses. on which hnglcrs ns.' tn ride nnd carry their conitiinditles," .\u early uame fnr these most useful lliiiernnt deiib-rs and iiewsiiKingers. winch wns current fnur and n bnlf .'itiiiiri.'s ngo. was "cndger," The prcsciil day nfreuslve meaning nf the i.rni is an ixauiple of the di'grnilnllou whicii sn mnny nuce reputable words aud plirnses have un dcrgouc in Ihe cuurse of time.

Thus spoke .Tim Wataon. a hand¬ some, sturdy Green Monntnln boy. ooe brigbt afternoon in March, many Tears ago. "I'm wllh you.
