HOOLEY AS A FARMER.

When Mr Hooley is not in London J engaged in making revelations about, earls he resides at PApworth Hall. Heio lie lives the equire's life entirely. He rises at six, has an early breakfast, and then t walks over tho farm with his stewaid. He visits every fi-ld and takes a con- , suming interest in crop-; and stock. It ia said that he has a nodding acquaint- ; ance with every animal on the estate, ( and of these the number is not known. , A little -whi'e ago he wa9 one of the , biggest farmers in England, and that not because land and kiue are the proper things to have, but because, in all probability, he would rather be a farmer than anything else. He brreds for the market, and does not show. In the byre there is a specimen heifer j scaling over 13cwt. It will be 17cwt at Christmas, when the butcher gets it, if there is any virtue in the Pap worth fetd. He owns the village, and the public-house, and the church — at least he is the pvtron of the living. He has made Papworth what it is, and his people are grateful. There would be a bad time in store for the strangers who ventured to assail the character of the lord of Papworth. The cottages are stone-built villas, and all are occu pied by the workers on the estate. Each cottage has a garden blaz r ng with flowers, and an allotment whereon the villager grows bis vegetables and keeps his pig. Most of the cottages would fetch £50 a year on the banks j of tbn Tpaines. It ia surprising to ~~ hear that in this lives a iaboarer, and in that " the old man you saw thatch ing the rick." When Mr Hoo'ey went there, two years ago, the labourers were earning 9s a week. Now their places are worth £1 a week each. They have a village oven and a village inaogle. No wonder they *paak *rcll of Mr Hooley. Gratitude for what he ~- has done, regret at his misfortune, and a confident belief that he will come outright again — these are the things you hear at Papworth. A prettier spot it would bo dim 1 ult to find. It has no railway, but it has big trees, fertile ground, a healthy atmosphe-e, and squirrels. Will Mr Hooley con tinue to be the squire of Papworth, tending his flooks and herds? T e probability is that he will. Tt has been stated that Mrs Hooley has pur chased Papworth and Riseley from tho. trustees of her husband'd estate. The truth seems to be th*t she has pur chased the furniture and stock. ggr-g.

Man's Ingratitude —We havo it on Shakespeare's amhoiby that the winter wind is not more unkind than man's ingrati- tude. In many cases this ia unfortunately only too true. There are timeß, however, when th« benefit rec-ived is so great that ingratitude becomes impossible. Whsn life \a readered a burden to us by sickness, and someone comes and restores us to health, we should be bate indeed to fed ungrateful. Thus, nvllions are to-day grauful to Hollo way's Fills and Oiutment, which have cured them of all stomach and liver trouble*, biniehed headache, flituency, indigestion and low spirits, and cleared their system vi gout, rheumatism, sciatic*, and all similar ailments —(Advt.)
