But the light was moving faster now,
and in a very few minutes the fate of the
helpless ones would be decided.
Upon the jam piled high in the river,
with the foaming waters breaking
through and over it, their lives depended.

At this moment, when my heart beat

THRRE SACRED KISSES.

HAVE three kisses IN my life,
So sweet and sacred unto me
That now, till death deWs rest on them,
Ny lips shall Essless be.
One kiss was given In childhood's hour,
By one who never gave another;
In life and death still shall feel
That last kiss OF my mother.
The second burned my lips for years
For years my wild heart reel'd in bliss
At every memory Of the hour
When my lips felt young Loves first kiss.
The last kiss OF the sacred three
Had all the woe which e'er can move
The heart Of Woman-it was pressed
Upon the death lips Of my love.
When lips have felt the dying kiss,
And felt the kiss Of burning love,
And kissed the dead--then never more
In kissing should they think to move.
Mrs. BroIOnin0.

Baltimore ravne almost within gunshot Of Au-

perhaps exception, the largest ever found in
modern times 1t was found upon or near the
surface with almost equal bulk of gold and rock
visible, in Baltimore rayine, which was supposed
to have been worked over and over, from mouth
to head, dozens and dozens Of times, and which
has often been deserted and considered exhausted
to have work resumed with renewed success,
time after time and year after year. For more
than twenty years intelligent and industrious
miners, including those Of all races, creeds and

Gold Medal for the Best Sewing Machine,
The highest honors ever conferred for Sewing
Machines.

The Machine which bears the name of Elias
Howe, Jr., has long been regarded as the stand
ard OF excellence, and has become celebrated
the world over. The work done by these Ma
chimes is surpassed--sewing the thinest mus
lin or the thickest cloth with equal facility and
requiring no extra adjusting for uneven thick
ness or passing over seams it turns its own
hem as it sews, sewing a seam stronger than tho
fabric itself. TO see it hem, fell, tuck, braid
cord, quit and gather, it seems more like a thing
of life than machine moved by the will of tho
operator. 1t is capable of doing every descrip-
tion of sewing that is required in family; and
also for scamstresses and dressmakers it will be
found invaluable. They seldom, or never give
any trouble in operating, and in word, are the
most satisfactory Se'cjng Machines in use.
Notwithstanding their great superiority, they
are sold at prices as low as other frst-class ma
chimes.
A Medallion likeness of Mr.. Howe is embedded
in the plates of every Howe Machine, without
which none are genuine. Every purchaser Of
Sewing Machine, should inquire for Elias Howe
Jr's Sewing Machine and if they are not sold in
their vicinity, address the General Agency for
Illustrated, ETC., ard do not purchase until you
have thoroughly investigated these renowned
machines.

THE HEART BOWED DOWN.

The heart bowed down by weight Of woe
To weakest hopes will cling,
To thought and impulse, while they flow,
That can no comfort bring;
With those exciting scenes will blend.
Ger pleasures pathway thrown;
But memory is the only friend
That grief can call its own.
The mind will, in its worst despair,
Still ponder o'er the past,
On moments Of delight that were
Toe beautiful to last:
To long departed years extend
It's visions, with them flown,
For memory is the only friend
That grief can call It's own.
