exertions in the cause of Education throughout the

DR.. A II. CHRISTIE:
Dear SirFor several years have been terribly al
flced with that agsnizing complaint called Tic Dolo
Teux, principally affecting the sciauc nerves. Al
times, no human being can have suffered more-my
screams have often disturbed the neighborhood. BY
simply wearing one of your Rings on each of my
hands, and faithfully using the Magnetic Fluid, the
complaint has entirely left me, and now believe my
self completely cured.

CAMP on THE RIO GRANDE,
OCTOBER 18th, 1916.

The advance Of the army under Gen.
Wool arrived here day before Yesterday,
We made the distance (ls7 miles, n e
lcyen marchingdays. through prairie coun-
try, with a burning sun. The advance
consists Of Major Bonneyille's command
Of three companies Of the sixth infantry
and one company Of Kentucky volunteers;
two companies OF Illinois volunteers. I'M
der command of Major II. l.. Webb:
the nying artillery, under Capt, Washing
ton two regiments Of Dragons, under
Col. Harvey /; two companies Of the first
regiment Illinois volunteers, under Capt.
Morgan and Col. YeIrs regiment Of Ar
kansas mounted men; together with a
train OF about two hundred wagons, each
dawn by six mules. The mastery and
able manner in which the moving Of this
force was plaanod and carried out has gra-
tifed all military men in camp, and result
ed to the entire satisfaction Of the Gener-
al. Not man was lost or died on the
road, and not a wagon or mule was lost.
We have Just learned Of the surrender

armisdca had been concluded for eight
weeks. Wish rs It IS Only rumor; and

The river at this place is about three
hundred yards wide, and very rapid ans

water IS pleasant soft, and cool for tn,
climate. The whole train and tie re
maiader Of the troops will cross to-day
in boats brought on in wagons, which w

TIE LEEE CLOCK.

There is q little mistic clock,
No human eyehath seen;
That belteth on-and beateth on,
From m~orninguntil cen:
And when the soul is wrapped in sleep,
And hearclh not a sound,
Htcks and ticks the l%ivelong night,
And never runneth down.
O wondrous is that work Of art
Which knels the passing hour,
Prt r ne'er formed, nor mind conceived,
The Efe-clock's magic power.
Nor set IN gold, nor decked with gems,
By wealth and pride possessed;
Bu, rich Or poor, high or low,
Each bears it in his breast.
When Hfe's deeps sream, mid beds of
flowers,
And still and softly glides,
Like the wavelet's step, with a gentle beat,
Il warns of passing tides.
When threat'ning darkness gathers Ger,
Aud hopes bright visions fee,
Like the sullen stroke of the muf1led oar,
1t beateth heavily.
When passion nerves the warriors arm
For deeds of hlts and wrong,
Though needed not the fearful sound,
The kuel Is deep and strong.
When eyes to eyes are gazing soft,
And tender words are spoken,
Then fast and wild it rattles on,
As if with love 'twcre broken.
Such is the clock that measures life,
OF flesh and spirit blended;
And thus twill run within the breast,
Til that strange life is ended.
