IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER CHANGE

The Hearth and Home, finely illustrated
family journal Of high charac ter, hitherto
issued by Messrs. Pettengill, Batus Il Co.,
has been purchased by Messrs. Orange Judd
& Co., of 245 Broadway, New York, the
wel-known publishers of the american Ag-
riculturist. Messrs. S. n. Pettengill & Co.,
whose great Advertising Agency. establish
ed in l849, is one of the largest and most
reputable in the world, find that their ex-
tensive business requires their exclusive
attention, and they therefore transfer
Hearth and Home to the Few Publishers,
whose long experience and alb un1ant facili-
ties will enable them not only to maintain
the past high character of the paper, but to
add materially to its value. The new Pub
fishers also announce a reduction of the
terms to So per year. The change will not
at all affect the american Agriculturist,
which will continue on independently as
heretofore The Illustrations and reading
matter of the two journals will be entirely
different. Either of the journals will be
furnished from now to the end of 1871 Us
months), at the yearly sub cription rate viz:
the Weehiy Hearth and Home at So; the
Monthly American AgrieuLturist, $3.50; OF

TO THE NERVOUS.

The natural result of exhaust on of
strength by excessive labor or action, is q
feeling of weakness, dizziness, heaviness,
WEAKNESS, languor of the body or mind, &c.
Persons of a weak constitution, or whose
habits are sedentary, frequently complain of
this relaxed condition of the vital energies
and when persons OF a nervous temperament
are thus weakened and debltated, disease
inevitably follows unless it is at once check
ed and overcome. All who suffer from these
causes alike require a remedy which will
strengthen the system without exciting it,
and awake feeling of true enjoyment, so
that life may become a source of pleasure.
MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS has won its
way into the confidence Of thousands of this
class of persons who warmly endorse it as
the best invigora t1ng agent and the most
potent and genial of al tonics and altera-
tives for strengthening and restoring the
physical constitution.

number of children in each ward between

sheet, for on their arrival the chickens were
found cold and stark in death, having lite :

LOST, AND FOUND.
By ELLA WHEELER:

Upon the great highway,
That leads to Fame,
/ journeyed out, one day,
To write my name,
Upon the towering hight,
That ghone afar,
10 my most eager sight,
Like bright star.
Full many walked the road,
With bleeding feet,
And some had dropped the load,
And cried-"defe at -

But journeyed on.
Hope said, 'tBe not afraid
Vain fear, begoneW
/ iourneyed, swift, and fast,
Like the keen wind,
And left the herd, downcast,
Far, far behind.
And though | stumbled oft,
/ did not fall,
But kept mine eyes aloft,
On Fame bright wall,
| would not pause, at rest,
And at the first,
Hope fed my hungry breast,
And slaked my thirst.
l passed Love, strong and true,
Upon the way,
And cried, "I'll speak with you,
Another day."
So on, and on, I went,
With eager soul,
With every effort bent,
To reach my goal.
And so at last l sat,
On Fame's steep hight,
And saw the Past's broad fat,
Stretch out in sight.
And oh, how wond'rous fair,
1t seemed that day;
And Love was standing there,
Far, far away.
He would not come, TO me,
His path lay low,
And l was old, you see,
And could not go.
| saw my withered face,
In Fame's bright wall.
Lost-youth, and strength and grac
And hope and all

In all these years ~
And falling on the ground,
Wept bitter tears.

In 1903 the great French Revolution
was inaugurated. Louis XVI was
deposed, and all the monarch

the young republic. France was with
out finances, without troops.

of Charles Y for general disregard OF
constitutional government, and In
particular for Polignac DEGREES against

ONLY twice I'm this century, has the
French capital been taken by invad-
ing armies. The first time was IN
April, 1914, and again the year fol-
lowing, after the battle of Waterloo.
The first invasion of France by the
allied armies commenced in the last
days of December, 1913, when Prus-
san corps, under Blucher, crossed the
Rhine near Mannheim, and reached
the opposite shore in the face of vig-
orous fire ST cannon and musketry.
One by one, other divisions of the
Grand Army crossed, at different
points, led by several European SOW
ereigns and generals of wide renown,
until hostile armies embracing nearly
a million Of men, were on French
soil, resolved not to lay down their
arms until Napoleon 1. was dethron-
ed. But it was full three months be-
fore the combined armies stormed
the heights of Montmartre, and COM
PEELED the surrender of the city. The
progress from the Rhine to the capi-
tai was slow, and would probably
never have been accomplished, but
for the fact that the people of France
had become weary of warfare, and
were ready to receive even the exiled
Bourbon King, as relief from their
distresses. On the fifth of March,
Napoleon issued II call for the univers-
al rising of the people, but it was all
in vain; and in less than a month
the allies had entered the city, and
the Emperor was on his journey tC
Elba. The second invasion was after
the battle of Waterloo.
