A TRUE STORY.

The following remarkable story has all
the interest of romance vet it is true,
and the parties are still living -
1t was in the memorable year of 1914
when the allied armies were concentrated
about Paris.
A young lieutenant of dragons was
engaged with three or four Hungarians.
who, after having received several strokes
from his sabre, managed to send bali
into his shoulder, to pierce his chest with
thrust from lance, and to leave him
for dead on the bank of the river.
On the opposite side of the stream a
boatman and his daughter had been
watching the unequal fight with tears of
desperation. But what could an old un.
armed man do, or a pretty child of six
teen? However, the old soldier, for such
the boatman was, had no sooner seen the
Officer fall from his horse, than he and
his daughter rowed vigorously for the 9th.
' Then, when they had deposited the
wounded man in their boat these worthy
people crossed the river again, but with
faint hopes ofreaching the military hospi.
tai in time.
You have been very badly treated
my boy" said the old gentleman to him;
but here am /, who have gone further
and come home.'& q
The silence and the fixed attitude of
Lieutenant --- :, showed the extreme
agony Of his pains, and the hardy boat,

man soon discovered that the blood which
was gathering about the wound ON his
left side would shortly terminate his.
existence. He turned to his youthful
daughter. 20 gnete n aeasa5 a. III m q,
. :" Mary" he said, you have heard me
tell OF my brother !; he died of Just such
q wound as this here. Well, now if
there had only been somebody to suck
the hurt, his life would have been
saved.n ffG
The boatman then landed and went to
look for two or three soldiers to help him
to carry the officer, leaving his daughter
in charge of him. The girl looked at the
sufferer for second or two. What was
her emotion when she heard him sigh SO
deeply not that he was re.igning his life
in the first flower Of his age, but that he
should die without a mothers kiss.
"My dear mother! my dear mother p,
said he,. ''I die without
Her woman's heart told her what ba
would have said. Her bosom heayed
with sympathy and her eyes ran over.
Then she remembered what her father
said she thought how her Uncle's life
might have been saved. In an instant,
quicker than thought she tore open the
officers coat. and the generous girl recall
led him to life with her lips.
Amid this holy occupation the sound of
footsteps was heard, and the blushinp he
roine fled to the other end of the boat
Judge her fathers surprise, as he came
up with two soldiers, when he saw Lieut..
s., whom he expected to find dead,
open his eyes, and ask for his deliverer.
The boatman looked at his child and
saw 1t all. The poor girl came to him
with her head bent down. She was about
to excuse herself, when her father embra.
cling her with enthusiasm, raised her spir-
Its, and the officer thanked her in these
prophetic words.
you" ' "
After this she tended him and became
his nurse. Nothing would he take but
rom her hand, No wonder that with
such nurse he had at length recovered.
Mary was as pretty as she was good.
Meanwhile master Cupid, WHO is very
busy in such cases gave him another
wound and there was only one way to
cure it, so deep it was.
The boatman's daughter became Ma
dame 5 -. Her husband is not now
simple Lieutenant, but a Lieutenant
General, and the boatman's daughter is
as elegant and graceful lady as any
you see at court.

WiStar's Balsam Of Wild
CherrY!!

TNHE BEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN to
Il Man for Coughs, Asthma, Colds, Group,
Bronchitis Influenza, Bleeding of the Lungs,
Difficulty of Breathing. Liver Affections, Pain or
weakness Of the Breast or side, First stages of
Consumption, &c.
Wild Cherry has long been known to possess
important medical properties. This fact is fami-
liar to every matron in our land, and physicians
often prescribe it in different forms for variety
of complaints. Tar, also, has been equally noted
for its virtues; and some physicians, whose
names are familiar to the whole country, have
gone so far to declare that even CONSUME
TlON could be cured by that alone. In other
hands, again, it was nearly valuelcss, owing, no
doubt, to their Ignorance in preparing and ad-
mnistering it-a difficulty now entirely obviated
by patient experiment and long experience.
Tho extraordinary medical powers of these
two substances are now, for the first time com
bined and embodied in DIR. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry. By nice chemical process, every
thing delcteriOus or useless is rejected, so that
what remains is the most extraordinary and tru-
~ eihcacious remedy for all kinds of pulmonary
and liver diseases ever known to man. To con-
vince all unbelievcrs that our theory is really
true, we refer to few cases of cures performed
by this wonderful medicine.
