oh! to stroll v;lth mlm* own again
Beside the St. Holm's river,
To linger with you on the wharf
W atching the white waves quiver,
And then to be once more with you
Strolling the fields together,
An 1 wander down beside the banks
of the old St. John’s river.
I look around me o’er quiet scenes,
And in the sunny weather
1 w ander in the dear old ways
That we have roam’d together.
I n<*e the blue hills far away,
And note the tall pines quiver,
lint oh! I long once more to view •
The dear old St. John's river.
! think of you ns by my side,
And see your blue e.ves tender
book down upon your little bride,
A girlish form and slender.
The morn I first beheld the light
Fall on those waves, I never
Shall forget how fair to me
Was that old St. John’s river.
And when again we meet, mine own,
No more I hope to sever,
Again together we shall roam
Beside the St. John’s river.

SOME HEARTS.
A (usual Peep Into Their Inner Depths.
Today I come to tell you of some peeps
into men’s hearts, thus to show that not
alone does women bear “life-long hunger”
’ in the heart.
As 1 look at the passers-by, I often find
myself wondering what the inner life
could reveal ofaching'longings after love.
The peeps 1 have had into hearts, have
given me to know that all is not calm
that is hidden by smiles. Too often these
cover caverns of despair.
1 knew a man whose soul was refined
purity, whose nature was affectionate
and full of cravings for the sanctity of a
home, but whose dwelling held as its mis
tress a woman who bore his honored
name, but filled the home atmosphere
with discord.
Through her peevish, jealous nature,
she overshadowed his life with a “con
nubial hell,” and made him to regret that
life had ever been bestowed upon him.
What a heart of loving kindness he pos
sessed—what a brain filled with noble
instincts of love.
11l public life his was a prominent
career. Failing to find peace at home he
gave up love, and was wedded to his pro
fession. The woman he loved in youth
was torn from his clasp by treachery.
He made the woman a wife in name who
had sought his love, but even pity was
killed by finding her a vixen.
When, oh! when, will we have pro
gressed to that state of enlightenment
that marriage will only be contracted
between congenial souls? Oh, soul of
noble man lookup, mistaken was the one
great step of your life, but peace will be
yours in the after-life of eternity.
What but pity shall we give the man
who has wedded a loved idol, only to find
he has mistaken clay tor porcelain. He
is bound to her by the laws of our coun
try, and doubly so by the laws of his
church. He daily sees—however unwill
ingly—that his mind is expanding, while
hers is becoming more dwarfed —narrow-
ing down to one idea, and that idea,
dress. Work as steady as he may, guard
as he will, he sees his income going to
pay for his wife’s style, that “.must be
supported.” Kind at heart, affectionate
by nature, he can only speak his fears in
mildest tones, which fail to convey the
weight of the overshadowing doom.
Whenthecrashcomes, his honor prompts
him to hand over his all to creditors.
Now peep we into his home and life. She
who has caused his ruin through unwise
expenditures, how acts she now? Meets
she her honest husband with loving woids
of praise? Alas! not in this case; but
with bitter reproach and lamentation
she bemoans her fate.
Wiiat would a true and noble wife have
done? Why, in my innermost soul’s
depths I feel that she would have stood
bv this brave man’sside, “heart to heart,
mind to mind, soul to soul ” and hand
in hand they would have entered upon a
life of patient, toil. Hh cheeiing words
and praise in her heart, she would have
thanked her flod for the glorious gift of
this man’s love.
Shall we eondmnn if his love grows
less fervent than in the early years of
wedded life? Nay, but v\e do feel proud
to have known this man, who, while lov
ing loss, Ims not lost one particle of his
manhood s honor, but, true to his mar
riage vow and religious obligations, he
tenderly cares for her well-being, and will
while mortal life remains lor both.
Oh, that woman would learn the great
necessity of cultivating alove of insearch
into the vast realms of profitable lovt
which our libraries so abundantly >itld.
Vv'ivt's do not sufficiently realize the fact
that one can not read and the other nog
V*ct doing so, without a gradual dissim
Rarity of interests and tastes growing
out of this state of affairs, and, soon, if
is too late to remedy the matter in this
short earth’s experiences. What is home
to a man that reads and reflects but has
no intelligent mind to exchange ideas
with? Pity fills my soul for all such, be
they men or women.
How sad to contemplate these married
liven, and yet they, are all about us, and
will be until marriage ceases to be a lot
tery and becomes an important studv,
solved only by the laws of mutual at
traction—the solid basis of lo ve.

BITTERS
One of the most important organs of the
human body isthe LIVER. When itfailsto
properly perform its functions the entire
system becomes deranged. The BRAIN,
KIDNEYS, STOMACH, BOWELS, all refuse
to perform their work. DYSPEPSIA, CON
STIPATION, RHEUMATISM, KIDNEY DIS
EASE, etc., are the results, unless some
thing is done to assist Nature in throwing
off the impurities caused by the inaction
of a TORPID LIVER. This assistance so
necessary will be found in
Prickly Ash Bitters!
It acts directly on the LIVER, STOMACH
and KIDNEYS, and by its mild and cathartic
effect and general tonic qualities restores
these organs to a sound, healthy condition,
and cures ail diseases arising from these
causes. It PURIFIES THE BLOOD, tones
up the system, and restores perfect health.
If your druggist does not keep it ask him to
order it for you. Send 2c stamp for copy of
