Castoria is Dr. Samuel Pitcher's prescription for Infant*
and Children. It contains neither Opium, Morphine nor
other Narcotic substance. It is a harmless substitute
for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing Syrups, and Castor Oil.
It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years’ use by
Millions of Mothers. Castoria destroys Worms and allays
feverishness. Castoria prevents vomiting Sour Curd,
cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colie. Castoria relieves
teething^ troubles, cures constipation and flatulency.
Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach
and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Cas¬
toria is the Children’s Panacea—-the Mother’s Friend.
Castoria.
'Castoria is an excellent medicine for chi I
dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its
good efleet upon their children.”
Dr. G. C. Osgood,
_ Dowell. Mass.
14 Castoria is the best remedy for children of
which J am acquainted. I hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the
real interest of their children, and use Castoria
instead of the various quack nostrums which
are destroying their loved ones, by forcing
opium, morphine, soothing syrup ami other
hurtful agents down their throats, thereby
sending them to premature graves.”

A COUNTRY OIRL.
A cool evening in July; from
meadows came the
le of the row bolls, the sun, a
ball of fire, almost ready to say
go ill-day to the world and drop
behind the clouds - the birds,
their song bushed, are Hying to
their nests; the chickens going
to roost, and the old peacock
strutting around the barn yard
for th ' last time for that day.
Imagine this scene ami you will
have before you a sundown
scene in thesoumry of Georgia.
A young gill came tripping
through the barn-yard. She
opened a gate that led to the
spring and with a pail in each
hand, went singing along to
milk the cows. The clear voice
attracted my attention and 1
looked at her more closely. She
was a perfect type of a Georgia
girl: She was about sixteen,
not very tall, and well formed.
A plain pink gingham graced
her figure and reached to her
ankles; a pink cftlico sun-bonnet
was tied on her head and the
glossy little brown curls peeped
out from under the edge. Her
checks were as rod as the apples
that hung in abundance all a
round her; her eyes as blue as
the skies above her, and her
skin had that healthy tint that,
characterizes the country girls.
It seems that sho did not have
one thought of care, and as she
skipped along, the woods ech¬
oed her words.
< i Love me little, love me
long. I ’
Her name wan Dolly Marlin,
and it just suited her, so bright
and sweet. She was the
daughter of plain honest par.
ents- They had been living in
the same place ever since the
war thirty years before. Their
home was an old one out piotu
resfpie. It was about a hun
dred yards from the road and a
row of oaks ran from the door
to the road and thus it was
called, “The Oaks,” The sunny
ponli, with its vast colours,
was screened by a honey-suckle
vine. On both sides of the
house was an orchard and the
trees were hanging with lus¬
cious fruit. As far as the eye
cnuld see were acres ami acres
of land, all of which belonged
to William Martin. He was a
rich and stingy old man outside
outside of his home but there
he was kindness itself. His wife
was a hard working woman hut
like her husband 6he cared for
no one but their only child, win¬
ning little Dolly, and Dolly
loved the world with all her
heart hut sho had never n
much of it.
“Are they all here,” said
Dollie, setting down her pail
and turning to the small boy
who had driven up the cows.
< < Yes, Miss.”
“Well, bring up Speckled
Bess I’ll milk her first.”
Speckled Bess was soon milked
and the other cows too,and pick¬
ing up her milk buckets she
went back to the house. It
v as now dark and the lights
shone out from tho windows
As she neared the house
large dog hounded out to lie side,
“Be quiet Stonewall,” said
Dollie with an offectionate pat
on his head, “and don’t shake
the milk out of the pans.”
“Well, Dolly, how did the
ccws do?” said mother. Very
well, said Dolly, sitting the
buckets down on the table and
NO. 16
hanging her bonne' up.
“ Have you tiuished the enis¬
tuuls for to-morrow ?
“Yes, I have just put them up.
“Will you please sot the table?
Dolly went quickly to work and
the table was soon set.
“Has father come from the
field?, she said, pulsing in front
of her mother.
“Yes he is on the front porch
smoking. t f
“I will go and ask him if I
may meet cousin Amy to-mor¬
row,” and turning she was soon
at her father’s sid< - , stroking
back the white locks she placed
a kiss on his careworn brow.
‘•Papa, sho said, did you over
see cousin Amy?"
“Not since she was a child
and 1 do not remember how she
looked."
“Well if you do not object t
would like to tide over to meet
her to-morrow. 1 1
“Certainly, my child, 1 do not
object to you going.’
“Do you think papa she would
love me? 1 have always wan¬
ted a girl friend but none of
these around here are like the
kind of girl friend 1 would liko
to have."
t i Ah my beauty,” said her
father with a laugh, /l am af¬
raid you are too proud, and I
think Amy would be a brute in¬
deed if she did not love you."
