FLOWERS.
BY ANNIE C. HF.YFRON.
I
These sweet flowers dear, 1 send thee;
Take them mv love, as a token;
They will look at thee for me,—
They will tell of love unspoken,
IT
They will look Into a soul
As pure as angels on earth can be;
They’ll remind thee of the absence
Of a friend who longs for thee.
III
I have told them a little secret;
Let them tell It. now to you;
Let them look Into your dark oyos,
As I used to love to do,
IV
Though the sweet little (lowers witlior,
Yet their Iragranne Is not. gone;
My love is not like the little Mowers,
But like their perfume-lingers on.

the high esteem in which he is

Didn’t Know Him.
From the Pioneer Press-
The death of that treacherous old
marauder cut-throat, coward and
thief, Sitting Bull, has called out some
cuiious literature in the east. Sympa
thetic people who “knew him” are
sending in letters to prominent jour
nals telling what a noble fellow lie
was. The very wording of their tear
ful obituary notices make it plain to a
western man that they were never in
Sitting Bull’s country and never saw
the old scoundrel in their lives. It is
a vast pity that the people of New
England know less about western
affairs than they know about Europe,
and are averse to knowing anything
when an opportunity is afforded.
Cuts, burns and all other wounds,
can be cured iu a short time by the
use of Salvation Oil, the greatest cure
on earth f or pain. Price 25 cents.
A certain minister of the gospel
in Elberton had a funny experience
recently. He was called into the
country to marry a couple. When
all seemed ready the minister ad
vanced to await the coming of the
bride and groom. One couple
marched in and took place on the
left another followed and took
place by the first then followed
another and halted a little father
to tlie right. Not being acquaint
ed with them, the minister, think
ing the last couple were the candi
dates for matrimony, turned to
them and had them about half mar
ried before the little lady, who
stood blushing, squirmed and chok
ing, exclaimed, “We ain’t the mar
rying ones; itsthatothercoupleover
there.” _
A fast train carrying the Western
