(SUDBURY MEETING* JIOUSK—16o3.)
Her eyes be like the violets,
Ablo'.v in Sudb’ry lane;
When she doth smile her face is sweet
As blossoms after rain;
With grief I think of my gray hairs,
And wish me young again.
la comes she through the dark old door
Upon this Sabbath day;
And she doth bring the tender wind
That sings in bush and tree;
And hint s of all the apple boughs
That kissed her by the way.
Our parson stands up straight and tall,
For our dear souls to pray.
And of the place where sinners go
Some grcwsome things doth say;
Now she is highest heaven to me,
So hell is far away.
Most stiff and still the good folk sit
To hear the sermon through;
But if our God be such a God,
And if these things bo true,
Why did he make her then so fair?
Why are her eyes so blue?
A flickering light the sun creeps In,
And finds her sitting there;
And touches soft her lilac gown.
And soft her yellow hair;
I look across to that old pew
And have both praise and prayer.
Oh, violets in Hudb’ry lane,
Amid the grasses green,
This maid who stirs ye with her feet
Is far more fair, I ween!
1 wonder how my forty years
Look by her sweet sixteen!
—Lizett-e Woodworth Reese.

/That class of young ladies known

An army officer now in Chicago asked
the other day: “Do you know where
the exact geographical centre of the
United States is? Never thought any
thing about it, probably ? Well, it is
marked bv a grave—that of Majoi Og

died at Fort Riley in Kansas, in 1S55,
during the cholera epidemic that year.
Maj Ogden’s remains were afterwards
. removed to Fort Leavenworth and
buried in the National Cemetery there,
but his monument

This isn’t a conceit; it’s a fact, though
probably of the hundreds of men now
at the fort, not one in a hundred ever
stops to think about it. Fort Riley is a
few miles east of Junction City, Kan.,
and is one of the most important caval
ry posts in the country.”
A horse with goggles was one of the
attractions of the Clinton Square mar
ket place in Boston, Saturday after
noon. The Manlius farmer who owned
him said lie discovered recently that
the animal was very near-sighted, and
an oculist took the necessary measure
ments, and, sending to New York, had
a pair of concave spectacles made ex
pressly for Dobbin. When the farmer
tried them for the first time the horse
appeared to be startled, but recovering
from his surprise manifested every sym-
tom of pleasure. They are made so as
to be firmly fastened in the headstall,
and cannot be worn without that piece
of harness. “When I turn him out to
pasture,” said the fanner, “he feels
uneasy and uncomfortable without his
joggles, and last Sunday he hung
around the barn and whinnied so plain
tive like that I took out the bit and put
the headstall and goggles on him, and
he was so glad that he rubbed my
shoulder witli his nose. Then he kicked
up his heels and danced down to the
pasture. You ought to have seen him.
I hate to let him wear specs all the
time, though, for fear he will break
them.”
Beck and Blackburn.
St. Paul Globe.
“Do you know Beck and Blackburn,
the two Kentucky Senators ?” asked a
former Kentuckian yesterday. “Well,
I’ll tell you about them. It is singular
that two men of such distinct character
istics should be colleagues in the Sen
ate. Jim Beck and Joe Blackburn are
antipodes. One is everything that the
other is not. Beck is brusque and
brawny; Blackburn is oily and wil
lowy. Beck is a sledge-hammer speak
er, who drives the nail right home at
the first blow. When Blackburn speaks
he festoons the room with bouquets,
and when he has finished you have no
recollection of what lie said. To illus
trate, we will suppose that you give
each of them the simple proposition to
state that twice two makes four. Beck
will state it in just that language, and
everybody will grasp it at once. But
Blackburn will come at it in about this
way: ‘I will take the figure 1 and then
duplicate it, and when I have combined
that duplicate with its equivalent by a
process of multiplication, I will venture
the assertion, and I do it with the full
est confidence that I can demonstrate
it to you beyond all possibility of doubt,
and I wish it understood, my fellow-
countrymen, that I always stand ready
to verify my assertions even to the spill
ing of my heart’s blood, that when
these multiples have been combined
and adjusted in the manner I have
heretofore indicated, you will find as a
startling result that the combination
has produced the number four.’ Beck
can say in one sentence what it will
take Blackburn half an hour to circum
vent.”
dyspepsia alone having, as I have said,
existed for twenty years. Her appetite
improved from wee£ to week until she
could eat and digest the average food
that any well person takes, without
any suffering or inconvenience. With
renewed assimilation of food came, of
course, a steadv increase in flesh, until
she now looks like her original self.
She still takes Kaskine occasionally,
but with no real need of it, for she is
well. I consider this result a scientific
miracle, and the “New Quinine” is en
titled to the credit of it, for from the
time she began with Kaskine she used
no other medicine whatever.
If you think a recital of these facts
calculated to do good you are welcome
to make them public.

THE
Chaplain Hall Writes tlio Following Re
markable Letter.
Albany, X. V., Express.
For many years my wife had been
the victim of nervous dyspepsia, of the
chronic, distressing and apparently in
curable type from which so many of
her sex suffer, languish and die. It was
all the worse because the tendency to
it was inherited. She had been under
the systematic treatment of many of
the best physicians in New York and
Brooklyn and elsewhere for twenty
years with only temporary relief. In
fact, there were few, if any, kinds of
food that did not distress her, so dis
eased, sensitive and torpid were all the
organs of digestion. The usual symp
toms of dyspepsia, with its eomcomi-
tant ailments, were all present—bad
taste in the mouth, dull eyes, cold feet
and hands, the sense of a load upon the
stomach, tenderness on pressure, indi
gestion, giddiness, great weakness and
prostration, and fugitive pains in the
sides, chest and back. I have often
risen in the night and administered
stimulants merely for the sake and
transient relief they gave.
Intermittent malarial fever set in,
complicating the case and making every
symptom more pronounced and in
tense. By this time the pneumogastric
nerves had become very seriously in
volved, and she had chronic Gastritis,
and also what I may be allowed to call
chronic intermittent malarial fever all
at once. For the latter the physicians
prescribed the good, old-fashioned,
sheet-anchor remedy, Quinine, gradual
ly increasing the doses, until—incredi
ble as it may seem—she actually took
THIRTY GRAINS A DAY FOR DAYS IN
succession. This could not last. The
effect of the quinine was, if possible,
almost as bad as the two-fold disease
which was wearing away her strength
and her life. Quinine poisoning was
painfully evident, but the fever was
there still. ♦ Almost every day there
came on the characteristic chill and
racking headache, followed by the
usual weakness and collapse.
About this time I met socially my
friend Mr. Norton, a member of the
firm of Chauncey Titus & Company,
brokers, of Albany, who, on hearing
from me these facts, said: “Why, I
have been through almost the same
thing, and have got over it.” “What
cured you?” I asked eagerly. “Kas
kine,”‘he said, “try it for your wife.”
I had seen Kaskine advertised, but had
no more faith in it than I had in saw
dust, for such a case as hers. Mrs. Hall
had no higher opinion, yet on the
strength ot my friend’s recommenda
tion 1 got a bottle and began its use as
directed. .,
Now recall what I have already said
as to her then condition, and then read
what follows: Under the Kaskine
treatment all the dyspeptic symptoms
showed instant improvement, and the

Mr. W. H. Morgan, merchant, Lake

Cold, attended with a distressing Cough
and running into Consumption in its
first stages. He tried many so-called
popular cough remedies and steadily
grew AVOr.se. Was reduced in flesh, had
difficulty in breathing and was' unable
to sleep* Finally tried Dr. King’s NeAV
Discovery for Consumption and found
immediate relief, and after using about
a half dozen bottles found himself
well and has had no return of the dis
ease. No other remedy can sIioav so
grand a record of cures, as Dr. King’s

it. Trial bottles free at A. J. Lyndon’s
