5 A Winter Thought - They were bright and green in summer, These naked, leafless trees, They tossed their branches gaily, To meet the laughing breeze. But the winter's breath hath blighted, Full many a happy thing, "Whose lamp of joy was lighted, At the golden fire of spring. The summer loaves have faded, The summer flowers are dead, And the nooks are dark and shadeil Where once their breath was Still underneath our footsteps, The grass is fresh and green, But the verdure once above us, Jib longer may be seen. We found, in life's sweet spring time, Fair blossoms 'ueath our feet, Thronging in wondrous beauty, Our loving looks to greet, . As the years went on, the flowers - Took on a richer hue, Bat they faded far more quickly, Tban when our life was new. There will come another summer, And zephyrs fresh and free, Will kiss the leaves, returning To the reft and naked tree. But for us we wait the harvest, And the Angel Ileaper's time, Ere hills of summer beauty, Shall rice for us sublime. In the land to which we're going, No autumn wand hath power, To blight the leaf immortal, Or dim the Amaranth flower. Thither our steps are tending, For this our dim eyes strain, The home that knows no parting, : Nor sbadott of a pain. Produce and Commission MERCHANT, W. W. KETCIIIN, Winnsboro, S.

The New York Tribune hag the - following upon the value of advertising, and every practical bus iness man will confirm what it says of the present state of business : "Prudence and economy, of course, are the two great lessons to be learned; but there is one part, of these lessons which in dull times is especially apt to be forgotten. ; He sure of one things whatever yqu have to sell there are many people ready to buy, even in the most depressed seasons. Find them out; show them your wares; persuade them to buy you rather than another. When buyers are reluctant sellers must be active. It is neither cheap d or sensible to sit still behind your counter and, wait for the bustle of trade to revive. When business is dull that is the very time to advertise.. In the first place that is when you most need to advertise, and in the second, that is when people devote most time to reading the. newspapers, and when your advertisement consequently is most generally seen. A few dollars thus invested will do more to revive a sluggish business thaa any thing else in the world. H. M. PHELPS. 'Home, Sweet Home ! There's no place like Home !"
