THE RIVER OF REST.
JOAOUIX MILLER. +
A beautiful stream is the River of Rest;
The still, wide waters sweep clear and cold,
A tall mast crosses a star in the west,
A white sail gleams in the west world’s gold;
The boatman rises, he reaches a hand,
He knows yon well, he will steer you true.
And far, so far, from all ills upon land.
From hates, from fates that pursue and pur
sue;
Far over the lily-lined River of Rest-
Dear mystical, magical River of Rest.

Years ago Senator Vest,, when a
young man, occasionally indulged in
the fascinating game called draw
poker, a game which we know is thor

Clenton county, Mo., more especially
Lathrop. Well, once on a time Vest
had tried a case in a little county seat,

Of turf that has been newly turned, In hal

The wheels of Time roll swiftly on, the crowd
still throngs the mart.
But power of man. nor Nature’s charm, can

As RAchel once ia Kama wept, so mothers

When from her gentle, loving breast, a pre

show by word, or sigh, tbat we can
sympathize with grief like this.” A
swee , rare flower, plucked as the pe
tals were beginning to unfold, we
could just get fair glimpses of what the
flower would be when it grew to per
fection ; but God saw that the flower
was too pure and beautiful for mortals
to gaze upon; so, in his wisdom, he
plucked it for the “Conservatory of
the Angels.”
"And as the tide of the sea rises in the mouth
of September,
Flooding some silver stream till It spreads to
a lake In the meadow;
So Death flooded Life, and o’erflowing its nat

Spread to a braklsh lake, the silver stream of
existence.”

sweet, short life finished; but that life
will always be a sweet memory to us.
Wherever she went—
"Some weary heart did gladden at her smile.
Home weary lire knew sunshine for awhile;
And eo her yeurs were one long stream of
light,
Like angel footsteps passing thiougli the
night.”
Her school-mates were devoted to
her; for never did she speak to them
in a cross or impatient tone, or was
otherwise than pleasant. Better than
all, she was a Christian. She feltthat
It was better to have the lowly Naza-
rene for her faithful friend than all
the world beside. She was ready to
die; ripe for Heaven.
"The angels loved her, and they bore
Sweet Laura to a brighter shore.”
And yet ’tis hard to give her up,
even knowing that she is far happier
there. While we are battling with
sin and temptation, and growing
old and weary in the warfare, she Is
the same sweet school-mate and daugh
ter that we knew and loved so dearly,
and we will say:
“God ol the lust, Thou gavestthe bitter cup;
We bow to Thy behest and drink It up.”
But we long for her so, oh! Father,
we miss her so!—yet we would not
call her back.
and of course stocked the cards. They
had no place to play in but a little
shed that had no floor but some fresh
dry wheat straw. It was a five-hand
ed game, and a dry goods box served
as stable. It happened to be a jack pot,
and Vest opened It on three queens.
The cards being fixed, the other fel
lows had better hands, and of course
raised before the draw. Vest stood the
raise and drew two cards. As luek
would have it, he got the other queen.
The betting commenced and grew ex-
ceedingly warm. They would raise
the youDg lawyer and he would see
them and go a little better. An out
sider who stood in with the gang,
looked over Vest’s shoulder and saw
what a formidable hand he had. He
held up four fingers, shook his head,
and in other ways tried to Warn his
friends. But to no purpose. He saw
that Vest would break the crowd, so
he lit a match and set the straw floor
on fire and told them to run for dear
life. That cool head which serves bim
so well now, and which never lets
him become rattled, did not desert

play his slave, the ex-Governor,

were dealt. The young lad watched
his master’s hand eagerly. The old
Southerner looked at his cards and
raised the ante. He was met and
promptly raised again. At this mo

come up, attracted by the young ne

How Were Uneducated Men Educated

leading monthlies on “How I Was

were such men as Henry Wilson, An

are almost household words. How
was Jay Gould educated? It would
be a paying investment for some mag
azine to hire him to tell the stoiy of

cently read that “when Hr. Hitch
cock was president of Amherst Col

were children when President Hitch
cock was a boy will remember that in
many houses a wooden dye tub, hold

most every kitchen chimney corner,
filled with dye, where the good house

Bhe was a young lady surpassingly

the earnest request made of herfriends

It is very well remembered that
Mumford was hanged in New Orleans
in 1862 by Gen. Butler’s orders for haul
ing down the flag on the United States
mint, but there is a sequel to that his
torical fact that has never been pub
lished. A few years after the war Gen
Butler was a member of Congress and
learned that Mrs. Mumford was in a
small Virginia town with her chil
dren in an almost destitute condition.
A week after tbat Mrs. Mumford was
appointed to a clerkship in the Interior
Department. She had no idea where
the influence came from that put her
in the position, and could not learn.
It enabled her to live comfortably and
educate her children.
With the first change of administra
tion she lost her place and was in great
distress. Again the unknown influ
ence came to her aid and she was given
another place and her salary increas
ed. A year or two afterward by acci
dent she found out who had been her
unknown friend. When she found
that he was the man she had always
considered the wanton murderer of
her husband she had a terrible strag
gle with herself, but at last sought
Gen. Butler to thank him. It is said
the scene between them was a moving
and pathetic one.

‘MOTHER’S
FRIEND”
House Furnishing in Mexico.
Mexico Cor. Boston Herald.]
It is no exaggeration to say that, ar
ticle for article, the furnishing of a
house in Mexico coats throe times as
much as it does in the United States—
a point which railway companies do
not take into consideration when they
pay not over high salaries in silver to
their employes here.
The highest priced food is canned
goods. Mexico ought not to import
these goods, especially fruits, as can
ning might be made to pay well here;
but she does ail the same. A can of
gfoen sweet com from the States, ic«
finitely superior to the dry d ati ve stuff,
costs seventy-five cents, silver; a email
nan of oystero, thirty-two cents; a
small can of Wilmington prepared
$5; a pound of American ham,
fifty cents; bologna sausage, SI a pound,
etc. Beer is about as cheap as cham
pagne, and to ask a friend to take a
glass of beer is a very marked compli
ment. The luxury of “a ham sandwich
and a glass of beer” is about as high as
one can go in the treating line, and the
quantity of ham is not in proportion to
the powerful deal of bread. Oatmeal
coats thirty-seven cents a pound here.

learned from a race of naked savages.
Tt is no “Indian Medicine,” but a scien
tific preparation, carefully compounded
from the very best Blood Tonics known
to the Medical Profession; nor is its
claim to public confidence based on th*
wild incantations of wanderiug Gyp.
sies, or the senseless mumblings of an
Indian squaw. It stands npon the ac
cumulated wisdom and research of nine
teen centuries. Since Moses proclaimed
that “The blood is the life,” the Medical
Profession, in all enlightened countries,
has studied, carefully, patiently and
laboriously the com position of the Blood,
its tendencies to disease, and the med
icines that make and keep it pure. The
Blood Tonic is no secret compound. Any
physician can see the formula. We on
ly claim for it the best known Blood
medicines carefully and scientifically
combined. For more than a quarter of
a century we have prescribed it with
the most satisfactory results, and if
space permitted could furnish thous
ands of testimonials. In the treatment
of Secondary Syphilis, Chronic Rheu
matism, Scrofula, Pimples, Old Sores,
Catarrh in the Head, Eczema, and all
impurities of the Blood, from whatever
cause arising, the Medical Profession
has never found a better medicine than
the Blood Tonic,
A UNIVERSAL NEED.
Nothing is more universally needed
than a safe and perfectly reliable Ver
mifuge—one that will never fail to ex
pel every worm. This is a universal
need, because all children are liable to
have worms. These loathsome para
sites are not confined to any class. They
have no respect for wealth or position-
infesting alike the children of the Presi
dent ana the dirty arebins of the Afri
can pauper.
The suffering and deaths they produce
are incalculable. Thousands of chil
dren suffer through days and months,
and are dosed with all kinds of “drops”
and soothing syrups to no purpose. The
constant irritation kept up by worms
woduces disorder ana derangement of
be entire digestive apparatus, making
the child fretful and irritable, and some
times causing fits.
Dr. E. S. Lyndon—Dear Sib:—We
obtained through Messrs. Hunt, Rankin
<fc Lamar, of Atlanta, some of your
Worm Oil, and it is so far superior to
anything we have ever seen, that in fu
ture we will haye no other kind in
store. We have been selling Worm
Medicines for quite a number of years,
and can say (as well as our customers)
that your Worm Oil is more effectual
than anything we have ever sold.
Should yoc wish testimonials, we will
send them to you from onr best citizens.
This letter is unsolicited by any one,
and is written solely to commend you
far getting up a good thing.
Yours truly,

A LETTER FROM JUDGE C. D. Me-
CUTCHEOX.
Dalton, Ga., Mareh 15, 1885.
I’> January, 1876, I contracted a very
severe cough that lasted for weeks, and
finally Became accompanied with a
pain in my side. I could g; t no reliel ex
cept from Calomel, but when I would
cease to use the Calomel the cough and
pain would return. Thus it went on for
some time, when l was advised to try
Smith’s Liver Tonic. I did so, and ft
soon effected a permanent cure, and the
symptoms have never returned. Since
that time I have kept this Liver Tonic on
hand, never using it, however, except
when I felt some way out of order, when
I always use it with good results. I re
gard it as the very best Liver Medicine I
know anything about.
